I’ve talked the last few days about the importance of having a connection to the spiritual dimension of life.
So check this out – in the above video, here are cops, of all people, practicing one of the most cardinal rules for any spiritual practice: the Golden Rule – Do Unto Others as You Would Like Them to Do to You.
The cops are giving out bicycle helmets to bicyclists, and they’re also giving out hugs – they’re giving out love.
Don’t call 911 – these are real policemen in Denmark. Perhaps someone in Denmark can tell me if this is the way cops act all the time. If so, the rest of the world has a lot to learn from Danish policeman.
Call it the Church of the Danish Policeman. I had said in yesterday’s article on the Life of Buddha that spirituality can be practiced just through the simple acts of kindness, compassion and love.
And so, we have a lot to learn from the kindness, compassion and love of the Danish policemen.

The Life of Buddha

I’ve discussed about how connecting to the spiritual dimension is an important aspect of living a Low Density Lifestyle, and also the important of silence in connecting you to that spiritual dimension.
At the core of Eastern thought and philosophy is this understanding – that in silencing the mind, you silence the noise, the static, and the chatter that stops you from touching the spiritual force that is the central pulse of the universe.
Ultimately, according to Eastern philosophy, when you touch that spiritual force, you are cultivating the seeds of becoming enlightened, more self-aware, and more self-realized.
Enlightenment is one of the things that living a Low Density Lifestyle can do for you, because, as I said above, when you quiet the noise, you come into contact with both the universe within your soul and the universe of the cosmos.
Above, is a video that tells the story of Prince Siddhartha, who 500 years before Christ, went on a path of seeking that lead to spiritual transformation that turned him into the Buddha. Born into a life of opulence and great material wealth, he gave it all up to become a seeker – to find the answers to life’s deepest questions.
He founded the world’s first religion, and with it altered the way we all understand the nature and meaning of life.
You don’t have to be a Buddhist to enjoy this beautiful film – you can be Hindu, Jew, Christian, Muslim, Sufi, Sikh or any other religion.
Inherent within the film is a universal message: that spirituality plays a core role in life, and that it can be practiced just through the simple acts of kindness, compassion and love.
