Ending Your Unhappiness, Pain, and Suffering

Most people are carrying around a lot of negative energy, a lot of emotional reactivity, and a lot of negative behaviors. This is often referred to as negative baggage. This emotional baggage causes a lot of problems and prevents people from having what they want and from getting to where they want to be in life.  Do you want to get rid of this baggage?

The fable is told of the traveler staggering down the road with a rock in one hand and a brick in the other. On his back was a sack of earth, and around his waist was wound a long coil of vines. On his head was balanced a heavy pumpkin.

Along the way he met a villager who asked, “Weary traveler, why burden yourself with that big rock?”

“That’s odd,” replied the traveler, but I never really noticed it before.” So he tossed the rock aside and felt much better.

Along came  another villager who inquired, “Tell me, weary traveler, why wear yourself out with that heavy pumpkin?”

“I’m glad you pointed it out,” said the traveler, “because I didn’t realize what I was doing to myself.” So he knocked the pumpkin off his head and went on his way with a much lighter step.”

One by one, the villagers made him aware of his needless burdens. So one by one, he abandoned them. Finally, he was a free man – and walked like one.

The story above was told by Vernon Howard. He used it to teach his students the daily problem of many people. What is that problem? As I stated in the first paragraph of this post, people are carrying burdens that steal their energy. They are carrying negative thoughts, false guilt, and self-pity. They are blaming and accusing others; and they are permitting gloomy impressions to take up residence in their minds. The solution is to discard them.

Do you want to discard them?  Do you want to get rid of your energy robbing burdens? Do you want to start on the path to ending your unhappiness, pain, and suffering?
