Introduction
Watching some nature documentaries is very good at times. Because
it shows the behaviour present in the plant and animal kingdoms and it allows
us to reflect and verify that actually human beings and animals, when it comes
to their behaviour, they have much in common.
This makes sense because human beings are an animal with
intellect. The essence that a human being has is the same that an animal has
and the only difference is that animals have two brains while we have three
brains, the difference being the intellectual centre and the facility of
speech. Also because the ego in us is actually of an animal nature.
Submittal
I always thought that being submissive was good and that it
was a way of avoiding pride or counteracting pride. However watching many nature
documentaries I began to reflect and think that submittal is very animal like.
All the animals do it all over the world.
Can be Eliminated
We actually can eliminate submittal from our life. It is not
really a correct relation with the Being that we have within us. We can in the
physical world take a second position or a less active position and respect
others who are above us, but to take the identity of submittal and the role of
submittal is animal like. Behind it is fear, which is very animal like. The animal
kingdom works all based on fear and aggression.
Pride and fear use the submissive attitude when we are concerned that we are
going to be displaced or removed. This is really a lack of self-respect or a
lack of respect for the Being inside of ourselves. When we submit ourselves as
per assuming the role of submittal we are lowering our dignity and we are
abandoning our Being. The best is to remember our inner Being and respectfully remain passive or quiet allowing those whose proper place it is to take the lead.
Conclusion
Not submitting does not mean to surpass, overrule, usurp or
take over. It means to remain as we are respecting higher authorities yet not
feeling scared or lower.
We can eliminate submittal using respect, awareness and a
love and appreciation for the divine presence dwelling within ourselves.
