Be, Do and Tell

The philosophy of –Be, Do and Tell, is the best way to advise. This is the philosophy that can be acceptable to everyone and everywhere. We human beings are good at advising but never try ourselves whether the given advice is applicable to us or not. If we advise someone, firstly we should try to be on that place, secondly we should do that and finally we can tell other to do the job if found it relevant. If not, advice remains only for advice and it does not work for the human betterment.

Galileo once said- You cannot teach a man anything; you can only help him discover it in himself. It means that we human being can teach nothing others but we can show them that the potentiality they have. For example, a child might be good at singing but he may not have known about his tone and melody. If someone inspires him that he has the strength, he can be a good singer in near future. Therefore, we human beings should try to identify the power that everyone has. Everyone does not have equal strength, skill and interest. It's human interest that makes him what he will be in future. The guardians, teachers and politicians should be persuasive. They should be able to sprout interest of their own. If they are interested, they can perform any deed effectively in no time.

Albert Einstein said- Imagination is more important than knowledge. Having knowledge is a great matter but it doesn't work if it is not applied in our daily use. Knowledge should be changed into skill to implement it in our daily use. If a human begins to imagine about something else, some sparks of knowledge approach in his mind. It means to foster knowledge on something else, we should be able to imagine. Imagination is the first important component to have new discovery. If we begin to think on a matter and find the consequences of using the imagination into effect, it gives us the way to the future. Let's think about federalism in Nepal. If it has been well imagined about federalism and its implication before promulgation, the chaos seen in the political arena; federal, provisional and local government, there will have only harmony between them but now everywhere there is paradox in law. But what is happening is the out of not well imagined of the consequences of its implication in Nepal. To sharpen your knowledge you need, imagination. With the help of imagination, you can use your knowledge to carry it on your hand. When your knowledge you carry out into effect, it will be you skill. Your skill can give output of the knowledge that you acquired. Hence, imagination is all in all for discovery.

Buddha said- What we think we become. Thinking positively is the way to let us out from our hardship. How you think may change you. If you think positively, you can get positive outlet and think negatively you get negativity in your life. The best way to live in peace is from a smile like Mother Teresa said- Peace begins with a smile. If there is a smile onto your face, you can influence your audience. If you show your anger, it increases enmity. Enmity is the way for conflict, destruction and human folly. Hence think positively to cultivate happiness and think negatively if you want to collapse your life being less human. Hence we have to be in one place and experience how it is. Then we should the work to know how hard it is or it is an easy cake to perform. Finally, we can suggest anyone to do the deed that you practice. Every human being is responsible to his own fate: if thinks positively, becomes a happy human being and if thinks negatively, destroys his life. Don't blame to your fate only. You are the one who can change your fate doing something positively that can be a good example for other human beings.
