I feel like Arjuana because I feel satisfied when I do the things I don’t want to do, I am happier in the long run. Examples are cleaning my room, taking out the trash, and cleaning my car.

The message is to preform one duties before your own opinion. I apply the Gita everyday when I become selfless. Homework and helping my siblings are examples.

American society fails to imply the principle. If America enforced or followed the Gita, our country would run better and more smooth.

Some people use the Gita as a tool of oppression to establish leadership and control. They use the Gita  to manipulate others to follow and obey commands. This establishes order in society. 

Over the long weekend, I Feng Shui(ed) my room, which basically means I cleaned up my room. Normally my room is kept pretty clean because I like being organized. If my room is not clean I have trouble finding the items I need most. But, when my room is clean I can find all the necessities and it is refreshing when I walk into a clean room. I hope to kept my room clean for a long time.

The experience overall was very calming and relaxing. I felt a connection with nature, the most powerful thing was the wind blowing the trees back and fourth.  This connects to Taoism because it was a good connection with  nature and that is one of the main ideas of Taoism.

I will grow in 1181 by learning to navigate my Chromebook to the best of my ability in order to accomplish what is needed in this class. Hopefully, I will learn a great amount about world history and find the stuff interesting.
