[size=14pt]Well for one thing,
People more than anything suffers from boredom.
Boredom is the greatest of all social diseases.
So I say that a solution to a better life for everyone would be to eliminate boredom.[/size]
Re: What is The Solution To a Better Life? - pattycake - 02-16-2015
Just think of all the social problems that would be gone if boredom was eliminated from our lives....
War
Arguments and disrespect
Domestic violence
Cheating
Whining and complaining
Escapism through sex and drugs: Which creates more problems
All of that would be eliminated along with the elimination of boredom. And what would replace that is inner fulfillment and financial wealth, because the mind would be uncluttered with distractions to solving problems and taking action.

You would not feel bored if you were inwardly fulfilled and able to take effective action.
To complain about existing conditions and preserve it traditionally for the sake of boredom is a double standard.

The existing conditions are whatever people complain about.
And no, I'm not a church goer.
I have no religious beliefs.

I had a dream where I was in school and Patty was the teacher. Patty asked me what is the secret to a better life. I said I didn't know. Patty said the solution to a better life is a world with less men, less boredom and less idolatry. Then the Dalai Lama walked in and said that desire is the source of unhappiness, and that when desires are quenched they lead only to other desires. As desire cannot be fulfilled, the Dalai Lama told us, to be truly satisfied one must renounce all desire. Before the Dalai Lama left, Patty asked him if he found her desirable. The Dalai Lama said no, so Patty threw a coconut at his head. Then I woke up screaming.[/size]
