SWAMI-SUKHABODHANANDA in his book "Oh Mind Please Relax" mentions something called the Dolphin Life in one of the chapters.
The idea is as follows "The dolphin always has a smiling face and projects a positive attitude.It is very agile and aggressive in its moves yet not in a rash manner but in a organized manner. It has a natural instinct to help others in distress(often exhibited when they save humans who get lost in the waves).Though dolphins eat other small fish, they do not normally scare the other fishes away like the sharks do. They command respect and do not induce fear.Yet they are not powerless. Dolphins have the ability to stun sharks and that's why even sharks,the bad boys of the sea do not mess with them."
We all should lead a dolphin life i.e.have a smiling face and a positive attitude towards life & the world around us.We must be energetic & active in order to reach our goals.We should equip ourselves with the required competencies to be able to achieve power.The power to change lives and use that power to bring in positive changes in others life.Power is not always evil. Power can be used to do good and also drives away any evil that may approach us (a logic used to justify India's Atomic Tests). People must support us out of respect and not out of fear.
For instance, only if you are capable of feeding yourself 3 times a day, then only you can possibly feed a meal to the underprivileged.But in the process of getting 3 meals a day that do not eat way others share.Create your own field which will generate more food enough for you and also which gives you the power to feed others .
As Uncle Ben says to Peter Parker "With Great Power comes Great Responsibility"
