Reach out to others. One of the best ways that a person can inspire positive transformation is through listening. It is not always easy to listen because sometimes a person will say things that are not easy to hear, but one finds that if one listens actively and lovingly this sharing can create a bridge which can then result in transformation of both the listener and the sharer.
We are in a time of deep transformation and choices for the world. Some become discouraged when seeing world events such as war, poverty and hunger. It is often these people who have the most to offer because of their deep sensitivity and compassion.
The Web is a great way for people anywhere in the world to share and thus to increase understanding and awareness of
It is easy for people to grow up in a certain place, a certain culture and come to a belief that anything different from that culture must be "wrong".

Here are the key questions you must ask about a path or teaching:

Does the path teach equality of both sexes and all races?
If a path teaches sexism saying that either men or women are superior or inferior then this is a sign that the path is a negative path.
If a path teaches racism saying that a certain race of people are bad, or that a certain race is superior then this is a sign that it is destructive path.

Does the path teach its followers to make war on people who are not on that path?
If a path teaches making war on unbelievers this is an obvious sign that it is a destructive path.

Does the path teach the abuse of children or women?
If a path teaches abuse of children or women, anyone for that matter, then this is an obvious sign that it is not a good path

Over 2000 years ago a wise person said:
"Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it.
Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations.
Do not believe in anything because it is spoken and rumored by many.
Do not believe in anything simply because it is written in your religious books.
Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders.
But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason, and is conducive to the good and benefit of all, then accept it and live up to it."
