The 10 Indian Commandments

The 10 Indian Commandments

1. Treat the Earth and all that dwells therein with respect.
2. Remain close to the Great Spirit.
3. Show great respect to your fellow beings.
4. Work together for the benefit of all mankind.
5. Give assistance and kindness wherever needed.
6. Do what you know to be right.
7. Look after the well being of mind and body.
8. Dedicate a share of your efforts to the greater good.
9. Be truthful and honest at all times.
10. Take full responsibility for your actions.

These 10 commandments have very powerful words and meanings.All these commandments require CTR actions. Following these commandments can lead you to having a good future. I believe that because when you do good you get good in return. Even doing it as a random act of kindness is an amazing thing to do. An example of one of these commandments can be Telling the truth always and don't blame another person for doing something you did. This example falls under the 10th commandment. Taking full responsibility for your actions instead of blaming someone else for something you did is something you should always do because choosing the wrong is never the way to go. These commandments have made me realize that being a humble good human being and choosing the right is the best choice to make because consequences come with every bad thing you do. Another example of one of these commandments is always being kind to others and doing something for another person that will make them smile. Doing something for someone who feels alone in this world will make them feel very special and important and that is an act of kindness. There should have to be no reason to be nice or kind to someone it should be an everyday thing. These commandments are all actions of CTR.

“A promise must never be broken.”

To me this quote is really powerful because i absolutely agree with it. I agree with this quote because i truly believe that people should not promise something to someone if they aren't going to go through with whatever the promise was. Keeping a promise is not hard at all. Not keeping a promise can be very hurtful and make someone feel bad. The consequences can be karma. Keeping a promise is for example, “I promise i will come to practice tomorrow.”. This is like making an agreement to something and you breaking it is basically like you’re lying. An example of breaking a promise is saying “ i promise to go over tonight “. By breaking this promise the person who made the promise would have to let the other person know that they won't be able to go over anymore. I feel like when someone breaks a promise to you it sucks and it would make me feel some type a way. People who keep their promise are people who stay true to others and for that it clearly means they are choosing the right.

Henry David Thoreau

“Goodness is the only investment that never fails.”

This quote is very meaningful and very true. What this quote means is that when you invest your time on something that isn't good it will not be worth it but when you invest your time on something great it never fails you. This is saying that when you invest your time on good things it gets you places and investing your time on badness gets you nowhere. For example, Investing your time on something good would be like going to school. Investing your time on school is goodness because eventually all that time and work that was put into it will have a great outcome. An example of badness is doing drugs every day. This is badness because when you do drugs it is unhealthy and it gets you nowhere in life. It's much better to invest your time on good things rather than on bad because it's best to be educated and successful rather than to be a low life with no future. Investing your time on good things don't fail you because they are good and doing good things means that you are choosing the right. Investing your time on relationships and friendships when you are still young is badness because people never really have good intentions and it's best to focus on things that will provide you a great future like your education.

Student Success Statement

“My basic principle is that you don't make decisions because they are easy; you don't make them because they are cheap; you don't make them because they’re popular; you make them because they are right.”

What this quote means to me is that you do something only because you feel it's right. Making decisions because they are easy is a good thing because when making good decisions you are onto a new, good path. Making cheap decisions is a wrong thing to do. An example of a good decision is turning in my homework on time and having it completed. Making that decision means i decided to keep my grade on track and tried improving it for my own good. Making a cheap decision can for example be cheating on a test or plagiarizing These decisions are no good because cheating your way out through life will get you nowhere and plagiarizing can put you in jail. I truly believe and agree that you shouldn't make decisions because they are popular for example ditching school. Ditching school is not a good decision especially if you are just being a follower. When doing something bad you are automatically involved with the wrong crowd. I am with the concept of making decisions because they are right.
