The Principle of What is Best for All - Day 572




For the next half a dozen blogs I will be walking through and sharing my realizations and awareness on the THE DESTENI OF LIVING - DECLARATION OF PRINCIPLES written out on the desteni site and what I have been practicing in my living to embody and become these specific principles as who I am. The first principle I will be discussing is the principle of what is best for all, here is a how it is described from the above document:

"Guiding myself in thought, word and deed to always, in all ways, direct all things to the best possible outcome for all.

Taking into consideration the effects of my thoughts, words and deeds on the world around me (people, plants, animals, environment) and ensuring that the thoughts, words and deeds I am living honour the best potential of myself and all of life on Earth, to the best of my ability.

Standing unconditionally in the shoes of all people and all things, and being able to at the end of the day say that I have fully considered all within the context of creating the best possible outcome for everyone and everything – that I have honored and considered them in the way that I would like to be honored and considered."


I also suggest reading Bernards Poolmans blog on this principle with his sharing of self-forgiveness and self-commitment statements, I myself found this blog very impactful and supportive for context and understanding to live this way for myself. 

I have found this principle of 'doing what is best for all' is an intrinsic understanding and awareness I have had ever since I can remember, did I always act on it and make it part of my actions, words, and thoughts, no, though underneath the self interest or words of harm I unleashed onto another person say, there was always an awareness that there was a better way to walk that, I could have done better, I could have done more, but I didn't. 

Another point I have found within incorporating and making the principle of doing what is best for all part of my moment to moment living is that it is rather simplistic in its understanding on how to do it, what to do to live what is best for all, and I found the solutions are intrinsically again within self. To do what is best for all is to do what would be best for you, letting go of all of the desires, needs, wants, and self-interest, and first putting others into consideration in all ways in a given moment one can see and living that before considering what self would want or do, and then in that way self will also be taken care of because what you'd do best for others is what you'd do best for yourself. Putting others first ensures that everyone is always taken care of, considered, and so this equally will support self as well. This is simple common sense. 

As one start to practice this in one's living, one will very quickly find out how one's mind and self-interest and greed and all the behaviors of ourselves that is not best for all start to become very prevalent. The thoughts become active to be in service of self, do what is best for self, forget about others it's too much work, it's too hard, I am not good enough, I don't have the tools, I this, I that, and the list will go on. Also, the physical experiences will come, the apathy, the resistance, the excuses, the justifications because self has always accepted and allowed this way of living to supersede what is best for all. When one start to investigate why this is occurring, one will see many different moments that contributed, many thought patterns that are possessing and promoting behavior that is self-interested base, and so the worst of self is lived out rather than the best. 

So this process at desteni I am walking is the process of self-change to indeed be able to live what is best for all, building the resolve and stamina slowly but surely through at will changing oneself over time to do what once seemed impossible, and through time and consistent effort you indeed start to make the 'impossible' the 'i am possible'. The world starts to become more understood, order and stability start to be developed and experienced within self, and one is able to direct oneself in one's living through living by principles such as this one, to do what is best for all.

There will certainly be challenges, falls, and complications, though each time one does what is best for all, which is getting back up, understanding what happens and what to change, and then changing self to live what is best for all. Living also the principle of never giving up no matter what to change self and do what is best for all. This is based on the understanding that it'll eventually create a world that is best for all through and through which is the world we all want to live and have been yearning for. Understand it will not be handed to us, we have to create within for it to be created into our world. It starts with self always and who self is. 

The decision is key in this equation and principle of doing what is best for all, and this is the most empowering position for self to be in because only you can decide who you are and thus you have all the power to do whatever it is you decide, you most certainly can choose to live what is best and so live it. It takes action and will and through the tools of self-forgiveness and self-correction, the alignments in one's living will be created to in fact do what is best for all in one's living in this reality.

This makes for a human being who has integrity, who can be trusted with all life and ensure what is best is lived out, and so becomes powerful as one is full of one's self-empowerment within the alignment of life here in all facets and capabilities through this principle of living what is best for all. It's a simple way of living, though it is a process to walk as I myself have found as I started my journey with this 10 years ago, though I walk with no regrets and am proud of the being I have become. Much more to understand and develop within myself while this principle in living action will guide self through, like a beacon in a storm, it'll show you the way one just have to walk it and in fact live it, it's as simple as that.
