How would you define being a man?

My definition of a man is on a deep spiritual level and doesn't come from books and hear say. I could care less about age, physical appearance, education achievements, life experience, how big of a handy man you are,how many kids you can make, how many sexual partners you had, how much drugs you sold, how many people you beat up, how many times you been locked up and how many books you read. To me these things only scratch the surface of life and they add to the man's Ego when he based his "man hood" on these things.

What is not being a man?!?!

To me you could never call yourself a man when you cause physical and mental harm towards woman by being verbally or physically abusive. Not even women but humans in general.(Unless your life is in danger but that's a whole another topic.) When you cause physical and mental harm to the next human being, you show your flaws in being a man and your lack of self control. When you try and control and dictate the next person life just shows you don't know who you are on a deep soul level. Yes you might think and talk like you are connected with your soul but your actions prove differently. We as humans have the divine right to walk whatever path we wish, as long as we are not causing physical and mental harm to the next. Yes you can give your opinion to help others and try to inspire them but when it comes down to it, every individual has the right to make their own decisions without the next trying to convince them other wise. Yes we make mistakes but we also learn from the same mistakes.

What is being a man!?!?

Being a man is a practice. Practicing being humble and learning the art of silence through some type of self discipline. The new man would never try make the next person seem less of a human being. The new man would never try and compare their life and past experience with the next human because in reality we are all "suppose" to be different and we are suppose to see the world through our own eyes. To compare is the minds worst dis-ease and when you compare you only add fuel towards your ego because you feel your way of seeing is right and others is wrong. Also when you compare you cause division towards people, many lives have been taking just because people felt they where right and others being wrong. The new man is never worried about people liking him or disliking him because in reality people will forever like or dislike you, whatever path you take good or bad that's just how life works. The new man is never trying to prove himself being right and others being wrong because in reality it's all your opinion. The new man has self control and uses right speech, he doesn't have to yell and use bad language to get his point across. He knows when to be silent and when to use gentle words to help sooth the situation."The man that knows something ,knows that he knows nothing at all" (Erykah Badu). The new man will never think he is a "know it all". Because in reality we know very little about the universe but we can get a better understanding of our "inner knowing". When you know your true self you will be more silent and happy because you know your true nature. And it doesn't deal with telling others they are wrong, comparing your life to theirs and to be the so called "macho man".

We are living in a new time and every moment of everyday everything is always changing inwardly and outwardly. And if we keep trying to use the old man's way we will never transform into the new man. The new man is a life long learning process because the new man will have to keep adapting to change and different situations. But by doing this he will find his true calling in life that doesn't deal with material things personal statues and achievements. These things are not bad but it does become bad when you based all your beliefs on them. It's about showing self love and spreading self love towards others. Because in reality at the end of the day, that's all that matters
