Shouting at Children

“True freedom is not found in conforming to society’s expectations, but in embracing the uniqueness that sets us apart.”

Once upon a time, there was a brilliant boy who possessed a unique talent - the ability to perceive the world in a way that surpassed the average person’s perception. Naturally, his actions deviated from the societal norms and expectations. Recognizing this, his well-meaning parents grew concerned and attempted to convince him to conform to society’s expectations. The boy made an effort to comply, but he couldn’t sustain it for long. His heart pulled him towards his own path, and he began behaving in his own distinct way.

As a result, his parents resorted to shouting, scolding, and even physically punishing him to force him into conformity. The boy would cry, feeling helpless and trapped in a life that went against his true nature. Eventually, he became accustomed to this torture, and it became his new normal. He grew older and gained the freedom to be true to himself. However, there was always a lingering fear that if someone objected to his way of life, he would lose all his freedom and be thrust back into the torment and struggle of his childhood.

Whenever someone opposed him, he would unconsciously react with bursts of anger, much like how an eyelid instinctively closes when a fly approaches. This behavior had become deeply ingrained in his subconscious mind, making it difficult to control. He got married eventually, his spouse came from a traditional family and strongly adhered to societal expectations. Every time she denied him, a volcano of frustration would erupt within him. However, he couldn’t express this anger outwardly, as it would jeopardize the well-being of their children, elders, and the family’s pride.

Now, his life had become an unbearable torture. He sometimes regretted being born into this family, cursing his family members for hindering his growth and restricting him from living the life of his uniqueness. He felt trapped, with no apparent way out. The only solution seemed to be breaking free from these boundaries, even if it caused discomfort to those around him who were unwilling to change. Without taking this leap, he would ultimately surrender to the torture and succumbed to death, resulting in a great loss for himself and a temporary grieving period for his family members, who would eventually move on with their lives.

“We are all here to express our piece of puzzle and let other express their piece of puzzle.”

The solution lies not in changing the external world or people to find comfort internally, but in changing ourselves internally, which will eventually manifest in the physical world. This approach allows us to avoid blaming others and instead take full responsibility for our own actions, working with our internal energies. It is a profound concept that can only be grasped by those with a spiritual background. If an individual embraces and applies this concept in their life, no force in the entire universe, not even the God if one exists, can hinder their growth. Surprisingly, their evolution will align harmoniously with the world around them to the best possible extent. Even their family members need not suffer during this process unless they are too stubborn for the change.

“He himself is all that is (God) and nothing exists beyond him like nothing in the dream exists beyond the dreamer.”
