Where best to begin than with a topic like this. Now, spiritual activism does not mean that I expect you to go make some signs and start marching up and down the street yelling Buddhist chants (but if you do, send me pictures.) What this really means is living a life that is good... well, what is good?
Ask yourself this, "How do I want to see this world? What do I want more of in my life?" If you want world peace, should you not start by bringing more peace into your life? If you want more love for the world or a higher quality of love from others, should you not start by loving yourself?
We so often look to the outside for change, but we have not yet fixed that "thing" within ourselves. It really is not about fixing it, but more so about accepting it. It is always there, we just chose not walk a path of greater resistance. We feel that there always has to be a fight. That activism and change has to be about struggle and fight. It does not. I've helped open more people to the idea of animal rights and gay rights just by being myself.. more so that holding any sign or yelling any chant.
I am going to be doing some very focused posts in regards to spiritual activism as it relates to some of the largest activist driving issues: Animal Rights, Gay Rights, Gender Equality, and Spiritual Equality.
