THE SENSE OF THE PERSONAL WORK

	We are trying to build a new world.     
We say that this world is going very fast toward moments of violent crisis, of clashes among people, among countries, among friends, among families and even inside the families. What we are saying is not an invention and we see how it is growing day by day.    
We also say that it is necessary to change the rout of what is happening in the world, because if it continues in this way, this generalized violence won't stop, but it will increase.    
    
What is it happening to the people in this so unstable and mutable situation??? It is happening exactly the same thing to us... we become more and more unstable, inconstant and violent. When things and situations of the "external world" are calm it doesn't seem so much difficult to take those things and situations as a reference for my life. They are as lighthouses that always stay in the same place.    
But it seems that in today's world there are no more permanent references. We see that everything is collapsing and that everything change continuosly toward situations that once we probably wouldn't have accepted as possible.    
There are no useful references and models, coming from a world that is agonizing.    
    
On the other hand, how can we build a new world, if the "elements" of the old one are still present inside of me???     
How can I live in a non-violent way, how can I avoid to discriminate others, how can I imagine a new world, how can I give value to what is human in the people, how can I treat the other people accordingly to the way I want to be treated, how can I imagine to jump besides death, if inside me there is still a look telling me that the world is definite, that I am definite and that no change is possible???    
    
We talk about change, about evolution, about healing from suffering, about the construction of an Universal Human Nation, and this is not possible if I don't change, if I don't evolve and continue to overcome my suffering and violence, and, in the same time, if I don't work socially.    
    
We need to give reference to the others, we need to turn ourselves into a vital reference for others. We have to understand and to "get rid of" an anti-humanist way of thinking, feeling and living and at the same time, we have to give this to others.    
    
This changing activity, this revolution inside me, this way of learning to see things in a new way and to bring this to others, the sharing of these things with others and the invitation of other people to their own same revolution, is the Personal Work.    
    
We say that human beings seek happiness, that human beings want to overcome pain and suffering, that they want to learn without limits, that they can build the reality in which they want to live and have the right to look for the sense of their own existence and that they can choose among the conditions in which they have been turned to live.    
    
This is the sense that  Personal Work has.
