(translated by translation machine) Eliminate the fluctuating range. Those who praise others despise others. To make this world a better place to live This report should be a single word. I'm making this report because I think it's important. I've said this before on my blog. Some people worship their superiors and kick their subordinates Have you ever seen it in a drama? A middle-level employee in a company fawns over the president, but is strict with his subordinates. The following is a principle I discovered. I've never heard or read it anywhere else. In other words, the reason why people who fawn over their superiors are rude to their subordinates is because it's a matter of "fluctuating range." In short, "extreme" is the tendency of people who worship someone. Extremes are the tendency of people who have crawled out of hell, and they tend to be extreme. (It may seem unreasonable, but many of them have the success factors and have the elements to succeed in society.) You can also call their tendency "cunning." You can also call them "weak." They are weak to "superior beings" because they recognize themselves as small beings. On the other hand, they are also "evil" (the extreme tendency of souls from hell), so they look down on those below them. Have you ever seen people like this? Don't worship authority "Japanese people tend to think that the emperor is great." It is still taboo to make fun of him on TV and other media. But isn't the emperor just a person? And many Japanese people think that politicians, doctors, Tokyo University students, celebrities, teachers, rich people, etc. are "great." One foolish child looked at a picture of the past prime ministers and said, "The prime minister is great." Some people unconditionally think that someone is "great" just by being in that seat. I think this can be said of all believers in religious organizations. Don't they think that "the guru is unconditionally great"? The kings and queens of the UK, the royal families of Sweden and other countries, the presidents of the US and other countries, and the prime ministers of other countries are all just people. Some doctors do a noble job. But that is because they have been entrusted with that role by God. It is wrong for them to be arrogant. Saving a person's life is something to be proud of before God, not before others. If a teacher saves a child ethically, he or she is a person to be respected, but if they are simply in that position, they are not great. As for any highly educated person, it is only a matter of satisfying their own ego. Movie stars, rock stars, chess and shogi masters, too. The work of politicians and government officials depends on how much they are contributing to the people, and if so, they are something to be proud of before God, but they are not objects of worship. Rather, many of the above people are arrogant, egocentric, haughty, and tend to look down on others. This is fueled by the praise of some ignorant people. However, respect is something that is earned. It is not something that comes naturally because one has a certain position. "Respect" does not come naturally just because one has a certain job or position. Respect is something that is "earned." The Pope is not great just for existing. He is respected because he negotiates peace and contributes to world peace. There are also people who should be respected for their feminine principle. Mother Teresa is one such example. She has made a great contribution to the world through her activities, which expanded her reach by steadily caring for and helping each and every person. She did not do this for wealth or fame. She did it because God asked her to. She won respect without even realizing it. And that is how respect should be. Therefore, we should not worship people without thinking. People who do not worship others do not despise others On the other hand, there is also the phenomenon of despising others. Some people look down on others because they are poor, have a low status, are of color, are ugly, are timid, are not successful, do not argue back, are not aggressive and are quiet, are small, etc. However, just as the above-mentioned authority figures cannot be objects of worship, the weak cannot be objects of despise. This is because humans are not animals. I have said that animals are children of the earth. At the same time, humans do not belong to the earth, but are children of God who came from outer space. The reason for their existence as children of God is "love." In other words, it is to respect people, help the weak, and not to despise them. Therefore, the act of unconditionally despising someone simply because they are "weak" is nothing but a lack of love, and they cannot be children of God. Therefore, such people are "animals" no matter how nice their suits are or how nice their appearance. The way to not despise others is not to worship them indiscriminately. The lower the level of a person, the more likely they are to despise others, i.e. the weak. And they elevate those in authority. One way to resolve this is to not worship people indiscriminately. There are certainly people who are worthy of worship and respect. (People with unconditional love, like Mother Teresa.) But such people are often humble, unarrogant, simple, and compassionate. They are by no means an unspecified number of authority figures. And if people stop worshiping authority figures indiscriminately, then they will no longer look down on the weak. And in such an era, people will no longer be animals, and the world will likely become a more livable place. BACK Copyright (c) 2006 Yasushi All Rights Reserved counter from 2022.5.25
