Do you need a panel of "experts" to tell you that you should treat the elderly with dignity and compassion? It seems that "care" staff in the NHS do. In my nursing journey, we were low paid ,not academic, and the reason to become a nurse was to care for people.Nowadays it is a profession and career. Nurses with degrees do not want to clean up shit......if they do they they can't do it with love or consistently for a whole shift. Modern nurses today are generally too fat and unhealthy to work physically hard for eight to twelve hours! Meoww!! We used to have the odd degree nurses in the 1980s, the general opinion was that they didn't want to get there hands dirty and wanted to become managers..how prophetic. One of my patient who was working in recruitment in a top hotel said the following: "We recruit "nice" people to train,you can't train people to be nice"
It is only when you have respect, compassion and love for yourself that you can feel those emotions for other people. It is the society we live in which shapes our attitude. We live in a highly materialistic & selfish society, manipulated by powerful organisations to stay shallow and selfish......captive audience.We are now just a flock of sheep there to be exploited for their gain. I didn't have a tent outside St Pauls, honest!! Our true budhha nature is that of compassion and love and empathy.
So come on you fat, unhealthy and ingorant nurses. come to Shining Tree and find your true nature.
Meditation every Friday 11.30am. It's free......no catch!!
