Talk well and create recognition, give respect and create identity
Kishore Shintre
#newdaynewchapter is a Blog narrative started on March 1, 2021 co-founded by Kishore Shintre & Sonia Bedi, to write a new chapter everyday for making "Life" and not just making a "living"
You create your personal Identity by going within your self with the question who or what am I. Within your Self are unique expressions of your Self that you alone could manifest, but do not claim them, just let them keep coming out and enjoy them in use. Your personal Identity is your Self not the acquisition of a series of practices and habits you have acquired from outside.You are Independent and free within your self,and need to look to that for strength.
As long as you don’t mean like in the "Bourne Identity (2002)", the famous Hollywood movie - type identity starring Matt Damon : A man is picked up by a fishing boat, bullet-riddled and suffering from amnesia, before racing to elude assassins and attempting to regain his memory. And where the dude-on-the-run needs a stash of guns, cash, phones, passports - that’s kinda boring, isn’t it - it gives him an edge for 24 hours max, then (strangely!) they find him. Are you evading the police?
Listen!! I know absolutely nothing about that sort of identity change. And I asked you never to call me on this number. The sort of identity change I’m interested in is where you dump your identity but don’t straight off pick up a new one. Now, that’s completely! Jump in, gonna take you for a ride. Forget your name, address, your past, your country, your job, racial heritage, beliefs, opinions, political or religious affiliations, favourite sports team.
Forget where you’ve been, who you know, favourite ice cream flavour, yeah, just relax, you’re gonna be fine. Undress completely now, not only your clothes, but your body (take that off!) - there’s gotta be (meta)physical nudity here! C’mon! Now! (Ah - yeah - okay, ya can keep your under-mind on.) You're a child again, you know nothing, except you are here. “I AM.” Say it. Again. OK. There’s your complete identity change. You like it? No, I’m not gonna leave you there, shivering, naked --Put it all back on - body, clothes, name, memories, hairstyle, wallet, driver licence, keys -your phone. Certainties. There you go. Lookin’ good. How does it feel? The reset?
Many people make separate identities. It’s a game played by frustrated people, con-artists, and some mental patients. It’s much better to combine them all into the identity free from the need to hide. That identity can be established by using the greatest secret human power. You can find your innate ability to base yourself on what is true for members of all religions, professions, social classes, colors, sizes, backgrounds. The work to find this knowledge took a long time, and involved many people, in several countries. The difficulty we humans find is that concepts, and to-do lists have some, yet limited, power. They do not dissolve the restrictions created by the child who was being invalidated, or made to feel worthless, powerless, in some fashion.
Adults often do that out of ignorance. Sometimes they do it as a reflection of their own inadequate resolution of old emotional insults. On some occasions there is a social, and often a religious, agenda. The restrictions are sometimes recognize, and talked about as though they were cosmic constraints. People feel that the way they are is set in stone. Rooting those restriction out, and getting rid of them is a whole other matter. It requires the use of neuroplasticity. Neuroplasticity has been demonstrated and researched for decades now. V.S. Ramachandran demonstrated that even certain, and traumatic, knowledge can be cancelled by the brain through the use of specific exercises.
The exercise that replaced my anger, depression, abrasiveness, inability to complete job documents was the use of the greatest secret human power. I capitalized use because just reading about the concepts will lead to the same result as all your previous efforts at motivation, and improvement. The mantra is highly effective, when used as mantras are intended to be used. Social support is also very helpful. The mantra teaching, and social support are free. Add the use of the greatest secret human power. It is a form of super-mindfulness that also engages the ability to dissolve bothersome emotional tangles.

It works very well for those who give it an honest try, is free, and even offers group support in many countries. It uses your own inherent powers to dissolve the inner chains keeping you from manifesting the person you want to be. Get your head solidly based on rational principles. Then, the rest of your efforts will yield better results. You don't have to change anything else about your life. The knowledge of this power is ordinarily scattered in many philosophies, religions, hopes and aphorisms. That keeps it secret.
It is great because all aspects of life are optimized when this power is applied. People will often express the view that you can do whatever you make up your mind to do. They just don't give you the step-by step method to face your weaknesses, and change them into your strengths. How? Here are some questions people repeatedly, and commonly ask. “Why is my life so boring?” But why me?” Why is life so unfair?” “What can I do about it?”“How can I be smarter?” Just asking the why and feeling cheated keeps a person trapped in those circumstances and suffering.
Here, the essence is unified into a single practice that enables anyone to manifest his power. The power is released when the mind is uncluttered. The clutter is the fears, and agendas that get drummed into most people when they are young. In the adult, those operate under cover. Here are some basic principles that are known by many people. We create our lives through the interactions between circumstances and the beliefs we harbour. We have the power to examine those beliefs and change the ones that don’t produce value. We can win in life no matter what the circumstances.- We can make the entire world into a haven of peace, culture, and education. These principles were studied, debated, written about for centuries in India, China, Korea and Japan. This resulted in the essential relationships of life being focused into five words. In Japanese, they are pronounced Myoho Renge Kyo. This was still theoretical.
Then, Nichiren, in thirteenth century Japan, connected all the dots. He recognized the way to use the secret power to clear the mind. To enable the clearing of the mind and replacing error with wisdom, the element of focus, determination, respect had to be added to Myoho Renge Kyo. He used the Sanskrit term namas, shortened to nam. This activates the secret power, when spoken, and makes it public. What Isaac Newton did for gravity, Nichiren did for all of life.
1-Humans have the ability to respect the truth, to focus their minds, and achieve great results. -NAM. 2-Life is both physical and non-physical. –MYOHO. This is the term that includes the limited aspect of the tangible and the unlimited aspects of the intangible, and their inseparability. 3-Causes produce effects. Sometimes this is not obvious because of the time lag between cause and perceived effect. RENGE -Renge also means that we can choose to release limitations at any time like the opening of a perfect lotus growing in mud. 4-Things are always changing, yet the underlying realities common to all life do not change. -KYO
The transcendence of circumstances is founded in the repeated speaking of the sentence Nam Myoho Renge Kyo alone, and with others. This strengthens synaptic connections based on recognized truths, and weakens those based on distortions. The mind-heart-body is unified in the effort. Nichiren’s method works for all of life, whether people believe in it, or not, as long as they try it with a focus on improvement. Caution, translation difficulties and cultural usages tend to cause many people to regard using their secret power as a religion because it is called Buddhism. The original documents show that Nichiren did not intend for people to rely on a power beyond their own capacities for transcending limitations.Cheers!
