"If you love others, and affection is not returned, look into your love."
Is your love conditional or unconditional? Is it inclusive or exclusive?
"If you rule others, and they are unruly, look into your wisdom."
Do you go by the rules? Are you a rule breaker in areas of your life?
"If you treat others politely and they do not return your politeness, look into your respect."
Are you respectful to all people, animals, and our planet? Do you honor the All?
"If you desires are not fulfilled by what you do, turn inward and examine yourself in every point."
What areas in your life is out of balance? Where are you not being your authentic self?
The quotes are from Confucianism and I interjected the questions. These are great questions for reflection to examine yourself. Delve into the quotations more and contemplate their meaning for you. When you do, you will enter the path to enlightenment.
