Life's Lesson's from the movie Kung FU Panda

The last few days I have seen a few movies. A couple of Hindi movies, Gulaal -- I think you should watch it at least once if you prefer Indian Politics and apprehend chaste Hindi, especially Haryanvi, Jat and Delhi Hindi. The next was Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi -- I really feel the name should have changed to Rab Ne Kyon Ye Movie Banaya -- Doesn' that sum up my views on that movie.

So for a change I thought lemme watch something really light tonight and played Kung Fu Panda. Let me build the context towards watching the movie and this blog -- The last few days I have been Contemplating a few changes in my life -- Not Due to My Marriage guys.  So as prescribed, with respect to the training I have got through Ontology, I started to inspect and introspect where I am and what are the reasons, certain aspects of life are the way it is and not the way I want it to be -- especially when I know that I am at the source of everything in my life and in life around me.

A few dialogues in the movie Kung Fu Panda actually have started to make me move in the direction I want to -- Real Breakthroughs in my thought process. Dialogues like There are no Accidents -- So true, what has to happen, will and you are at the source of it. We are just blind that we are responsible for it or do not want to take responsibilities. As human being's we cant ACCEPT -- when life, relationship's with others and especially with self is all about acceptance.

The most intriguing dialogue is -- Yesterday is History, Tomorrow is Mystery and Today is a GIFT and that's why, we call it PRESENT -- WOW 

Just hit the nail on the head isn't. As humans, we live so much in the past and dream about the future, as the future should not be like the past. But today is a gift and we don't live it. We can live life as it happens (Accepting it) or the way you want it to happen. Life happens now, as I write, Life happens now, as you read. I like the way Robin Sharma declares who a leader is -- Everyone who breathes is a leader. Because you live that every single moment absolutely unconscious to the fact you are breathing. -- Don't stop to check whether you are breathing, you are and you are a leader because of that and because you are reading my blog :).

So transformational, that I could instantly connect to the fact that I was not controlling what I wanted, cause I was fearing of a few things / happenings/ instances  and that came from my Past and led into my Future, that I couldn't BE what i wanted to BE in the PRESENT and was having no control of what I want to CREATE for my future.

Lastly, when Paul the Panda gets the Dragon Scroll to only see NOTHING (See's himself in the scroll) and then his father tells him that the secret Ingredient to his secret ingredient soup is NOTHING it just transcends the essence of our living and is critical to every human being.

The reason am highlighting the word NOTHING is because, Life is EMPTY and MEANINGLESS, or in simple english NOTHING. Don't we make everything of life. Good, Bad and the Ugly. Aren't we the ones who compare our children with the neighbours son, aren't we the ones who compare our children's job to the next door geek who earns a fat salary, aren't we the ones who want a billion bucks in the bank without sacrificing or ready to sacrifice everything, that we cant even see people around us. Aren't we the ones who create meaning's of anything and everything around, that we create, hatred, opinions, assumptions, war etc and also very little of happiness and joy. 

Why can't we be like Paul the Panda, always cheerful, Never say die attitude and following his dream to be the DRAGON WARRIOR. Life is within us, we are the life we want to have and want to be.

Lets go for it and create happiness, joy and wealth of goodness around us.
