Why dont I get down from my car and look at it and realize that
there is flat tire, spark-plug not firing or the gear-box needs oil "
The Human Machine - Arnold Bennett
I need to get the perspective of the environment and myself-
I should not rush into judgments that wife is wrong -boss is wrong - neighbor is wrong
opinion of How things should be?
I need to use the stoic perspective of react vs respond : react not to the events
rather respond to my judgment of the event!
Problem is not the problem
My opinion of the problem is the problem!
Another perspective on same topic from Yoga Philosophy : Me as analogy to Chariot
Ì am a 5-Horses-Drawn Chariot :
The Roads are the Desires
5 Senses are the 5 Horses
Reins are my Mind faculty - perceptors of sensory inputs
Charioteer is the Intellect
Lord of the vehicle is the Soul
If things are wrong it's probably me and not the world
