What is Self Generation?

IT is a Buddhist Concept of not allowing our traumas of our childhood or young adulthood to drive us insane. And instead we self parent ourselves towards enlightenment.

So, a person can choose to be sane and can choose to have good thoughts and can choose to generate thoughts of enlightenment rather than be a victim forever of one's childhood traumas and the traumas of all our lives.

How does one start with Self Generation?

By choosing to be sane and by choosing to have better thoughts and the beginning of this is Compassion for oneself and compassion for all others.

One starts by realizing that all beings suffer with basically the same issues. One develops compassion for oneself and others by realizing how similar we all are. If we separate ourselves in selfishness in our minds then we cannot become fully enlightened.

It is by realizing we are all the same and all suffering that we begin our enlightenment in our lives. It's true enlightenment is a never ending process, just like you can become a carpenter, a lawyer, a musician, a builder, a politician, you can also become all types of enlightened person as well.

We each have different abilities and different qualities to help ourselves and others along the way. It is by harnessing our true abilities to help ourselves and our others through right mindfulness that we move ourselves and all beings towards enlightenment.

And as we self generate in positive thoughts towards ourselves and all others we help enlighten not only ourselves but all humanity on earth and beyond ongoing.

By God's Grace
