More on Integrity

Picked this from the Landmark education site:

Integrity: The Bottom Line A Landmark Education Seminar
Integrity is often thought of as moral uprightness and steadfastness – making the “good” choices, doing the “right thing.” In fact, it is far more than that. It is a home, an anchor, a created and continuing commitment – a way of being and acting that shapes who you are.
In this Landmark Education seminar, you will discover that integrity resides in the ability to constitute yourself as your word, to be true to your principles, and ultimately, be true to yourself. You'll learn that integrity is not constrained by, nor does it reside in, rules, prescriptions, or imposed demands. Integrity creates an environment of freedom, power, and joy.

Without Integrity nothing works!!

CS, my friend from Landmark(...we completed the "curriculum of living" together) went for this session in Bangalore "Without Integrity nothing works!!"

Since I am in Sydney I missed this session, anyway CS helped me understand some distinctions I would have missed:

  • Integrity is not to just to honour your words but always to keep the empowering conversation for your possibility to be alive at all cost at all circumtrances.
  • To be in integrity is to be whole and complete in EVERY area of life 100%. I am someone for whom only 100% of integrity exists there is nothing called 99% integrity and that who i am is "without integrity nothing works"
  • When you experience loss of power in any area even before checking your inauthenticity check you INTEGRITY first !!
  • Also get present to that there is no use of knowing. Its only being that is existential, knowing is fantasy
Thanks CS!!!
