"10 Good News" 1. It is possible to live through life in happiness if our goal is to help the others. Our existence makes sense and has an objective. 2. Reincarnation does not exist. Our soul is tied to the physical body. In the moment of death, the body and soul stop to exist in the same moment. There is nothing to fear after death. There is nothing there. 3. We are immortal. If we pass on our DNA to the next generation, we hand over everything that is important. We are runners in a relay-race and we have responsibility to both our ancestors and descendants. 4. At the end, good beats evil. Creative powers win over powers of destruction. A simple proof of this is the fact that we are here right now. 5. Every human being has an element of divinity. Looking at some people it is very easy to recognize the divinity in them, looking at other people it is not easy at all. But it is present in every person. 6. Paradise and hell are not anywhere outside of us, they exist only in our head. We create the reality in our brain. The outside world is only a mirror of what is in us. 7. It is true, that human suffering exists and that it is possible to uncover its causes and to remove them. For that we can use such methods as meditation, spiritual growth and compassion. 8. Law of Karma, the law of cause and effect, is valid in our lives. If you do something good, the good returns back to you. If you do something bad, the bad returns back to you. 9. Authorities are artificial concept created by society. There is no sense in submitting our liberty to them. Always question the authority. 10. It is possible to live a life without extremes, on the Middle Way. Equilibrium leads towards happiness, extremes lead to distress. It is good to be on the way and seek new horizons. Somewhere there is the future. ----------- Summarized by alef.techno@centrum.cz in Prague, 17.1.2009
