Belief System

Our belief system determines our current action. Let us take the example of a child who is playing and while playing he falls down. The mother who is standing nearby comes running and lifts the child. She tries to pacify the child by scolding the floor which has hurt the child. Here the belief system that the mother instills in the child is, not to take the blame for getting hurt, but to blame the external forces for the hurt. Now here the child grows up with the belief system that others are to be blamed for all the problems and hurt that he faces. He has not been taught to take responsibility for what ever happens to him. The net result being, that he blames the whole world, except himself for what ever happens to him. This type of blaming definitely plays a havoc in his personal relationships. Well nothing to worry about......because this belief system can be changed by first of all becoming aware that it is his belief system which is responsible for his current condition and it is in his hands to change his belief system by taking responsibility for his current status, and further bring in changes in his perception.
