Hi Judy and classmates,
about the question renaming the school. I like very much the name Being Happy Being You. Inner transformation is happening all the time. Maybe then conscious innner transformation. But being happy with the inner transformation is topping this, it is even more, it goes further. This is my opinion.

Hi Monika, at last I am able to comment. My own blog was not allowing me to, for some reason. Perhaps the word transformation has a different meaning in English.
ReplyDeleteChange does happen all the time, whether we want it to or not. Leaves change, moods change, jobs change.
Transformation implies something more dramatic and real, deep and lasting.
People do change all the time...their moods change, depending upon outer circumstances. These are changes related to the mind and means that people are controlled by outer circumtances and by the mind.
But REAL change--or inner transformation does not happen all the time, not unless someone is actively, consciously on a spiritual path. Which is why people grow old and find themselves burdened with the same unhappy beliefs and thoughts that have brought them misery all their lives.
Transformation implies a spiritual change, a deep down change, that truly makes our life new. We are no longer controlled by anything outside of us.
King James Bible
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
