Kodi ndibwino kuti mwamuna achoke thupi lake mosadziŵa, kuti moyo ukhoze kulowerera mmalo mwake?
Ndikofunika kuti bambo waudindo azindikire zonse zomwe amachita mwakuthupi ndi zina zilizonse zakhalapo. Ngati munthu, yemwe amatanthauza kuzindikira mu thupi, aganiza zosiya thupi lake, amangowusiya osadziwa; Ngati wasiya thupi lake mosadziwa, alibe ufulu wosankha pankhaniyi.
Sikoyenera kwa mzimu - kutenga kuti "munthu" ndi "mzimu" pamafunso omwe amafananizidwa kuti achoke thupi lake kuti alowe m'maloto ake. Munthu nthawi zambiri, ngati alipo, amasiya thupi lake asanamwalire.
Munthu akudziwani podzuka; amadziwa zam'maloto; sadziwa nthawi yomwe akudutsa kuchokera pakukonzekera kupita m'maloto; ndiye kuti, pakati pa mphindi yomaliza pamene ali maso komanso chiyambi cha maloto. Kudutsa kuchokera ku thupi kupita kumaloto kumafanana ndi kufa; ndipo ngakhale mwa lingaliro ndi kuchitapo kanthu munthu azindikira momwe kusinthaku kukhalira, iye sakudziwa kapena sakudziwa nthawi ikadakwana, ngakhale atakhala kuti ali ndi lingaliro lakudutsa.
Munthu akaphunzira momwe angalowere komanso momwe angakwaniritsire cholinga chake, amasiya kukhala munthu wamba, ndipo ndi china choposa munthu wamba.
Kodi miyoyo imakhala yotalika bwanji yomwe imasiyira matupi awo mozindikira ndi omwe amakhalabe osamala pambuyo pa imfa?
Izi zimatengera zomwe amaganiza ndi zomwe wofunsayo amatchula ngati mzimu, komanso zolingalira zamzimu ndi zauzimu zauzimu zina m'miyoyo ina yakuthupi komanso makamaka yomaliza. Ngati munthu angathe kusiya thupi lake mwakufuna kufa, alola kapena asankhe kuti aphedwe. Zingakhale kuti munthu wadutsa panjira ya kufa chikumbumtima kapena osadziwa, mkhalidwe wakudziwitsa, womwe adzalowe, umagwirizana ndipo amatsimikiza ndi zomwe adapeza podziwa zambiri pamoyo wake wapadziko lapansi. Osati kukhala ndi kukhala ndi ndalama komanso zinthu zadziko, ngakhale zili zazikulu kwambiri, kapena ulemu, kapena kudziwana ndi miyambo ndi misonkhano yayikulu, kapenanso kutengera zomwe amuna ena aganiza; palibe chimodzi cha izi. Kupezeka pambuyo pa kufa kumatengera kuchuluka kwa luntha lomwe munthu wafika pa moyo; pa zomwe adziwa moyo kukhala; pa zolamulira zake; pa maphunziro a malingaliro ake ndi malekezero omwe wazigwiritsa ntchito, ndi momwe amaonera ena.
Mwamuna aliyense akhoza kukhala ndi lingaliro lazinthu za dziko pambuyo pakufa mwakuzindikira zomwe "amadziwa" ndi zomwe akuchita m'moyo uno ndi iye, komanso malingaliro ake ndi chiyani zakunja. Osati zomwe munthu anena kapena zomwe amakhulupirira pambuyo poti amwalira sizidzamuchitikira akadzamwalira. Ndale zachipembedzo zomwe zidakhala zikhulupiriro za okhulupilira azachipembedzo omwe akuyembekeza kapena zakusilira dziko sizingawapangitse anthu kuti azindikire ndikamwalira zomwe adamva kale, ngakhale atakhulupirira zomwe amva . Dziko lomwe limwaliralo silipezeka kuti ndi malo otentha omwe sanakhulupirire, kapena kungokhulupirira ndi mamembala ampingo samapereka mwayi kumalo osankhidwa kumwamba. Kukhulupirira pambuyo poti amwalira kumatha kukhudza madera omwewo momwe angalimbikitsire malingaliro ake ndi zochita zake. Palibe mulungu kumwamba kuti adzachotse munthu padziko lapansi ndi pachifuwa chake; palibe mdierekezi kuti agwire munthu pa pitchfork yake akamachoka kudziko lapansi, ziribe kanthu kuti zikhulupiliro zake zakhala liti pa moyo, kapena zomwe adalonjezedwa kapena kuwopseza ndi akatswiri azaumulungu. Mantha ndi chiyembekezo asanafe sizisintha zomwe zimachitika munthu akadzamwalira. Zomwe zimayambira ndi kufotokozera munthu atafa ndi izi: zomwe amadziwa ndi zomwe anali asanafe.
Munthu akhoza kunyenga anthu za iye pomwe ali mdziko lapansi; mwa izi amatha kuphunzira kudzinyenga yekha pa moyo wake; koma sangathe kunyenga ake omwe, omwe ndi Mwini, monga momwe nthawi zina amatchulira, pazomwe adaganiza ndi kuchita; Chilichonse chomwe adaganiza ndikuchiwona chiziwonekera mwatsatanetsatane. Ndipo malinga ndi lamulo lachiwerewere losasinthika komanso ladziko lonse, lomwe palibe pempho komanso kuthawa, ndiye kuti zomwe wazilingalira ndi kuzisintha.
Imfa ndi njira yolekanitsa, kuyambira nthawi yosiya thupi lanyama kupita ku chidziwitso chakumwamba. Imfa imalanda chilichonse kuchokera kwa munthu yemwe siali wa dziko lakumwamba. Kulibe malo kumwamba a akapolo ake olipidwa ndi mabanki ake. Ngati munthu atakhala wosungulumwa popanda iwo sangakhale kumwamba. Ndi yekhayo amene angapite kumwamba komwe kuli kumwamba, ndi komwe sikuli pansi pa gehena. Akapolo amalipiro ndi malo ndi mabanki akadali padziko lapansi. Ngati munthu ankaganiza kuti anali nazo pamene anali padziko lapansi, analakwitsa. Sangakhale mwini wake. Akhoza kubwereketsa zinthu, koma ali ndi zomwe sangataye. Zomwe munthu sangataye zimapita naye kumwamba, zimakhalabe zake padziko lapansi, ndipo amazidziwa kwamuyaya. Akhoza kuuphimba ndi kuuphimba padziko lapansi ndi zinthu zomwe sizili zake, koma akudziwabe. Mkhalidwe wamaganizidwe omwe munthu amalowa ndikumadziwa m'moyo adzalowa ndikudziwa pambuyo pa imfa, pomwe m'moyo wathupi amasokonezedwa ndi zovuta ndi zosamalira zapadziko lapansi. “Kumwamba,” kapena kuti kumwamba, chimene iye amachidziŵa n’chopanda mantha ndi kuipidwa. Chilichonse chimene chimalepheretsa chimwemwe padziko lapansi chidzachotsedwa mumkhalidwe umenewo.
