The Great White Shark


Carchardon carcharis is the scientific designation, they're solitary creatures. No one knows how long they live or how they live, for that matter. All they do is swim, eat and procreate. Put an injured fish in the water, pour a tenth of a liter of blood in a choppy sea, and the great white will sense it from far away as a hundred miles. They'll navigate flawlessly, around or through any obstacle to get it. When it arrives on the scene, despite its size, power and obvious advantage, it waits. Circling until it's sure that its prey can't put up a fight, can't resist, only then does it strike, "usually from behind". Now fifteen million years ago, there was an ancestor of the great white. They call it Carchardon megalodon. It was as much as ten times larger than the ones we know today. They found the fossilized tooth of one once. It was bigger than your hand. If it were still around today, and there is a speculation about whether or not it is, it could swallow a small boat whole. Nothing could stand its way, let alone a little wounded fish. Clearly the great white Shark, the most feared terror of the oceans is an analogy for us today. The megalodon, what I was describing are the "material substance and our spiritual indolence". These things concerning mortality in which you and I are victims, there are this megalodon. They encircle you, they keep on waiting for that moment you give in to them. That moment you lost the consciousness of your true self, the power of your mind and allowing negativity and monkey mind to overwhelm you. When you're so much concerned about acquiring earthly material substance, you're completely thrown off balance. You mustn't feed one part of yourself neglecting the other part which is really the 'you'. Build yourself spiritually and avoid weakness because your predator being these things I've mentioned, despite its overwhelming superiority it still wait for that perfect moment. This is when you become the wounded fish, and you could imagine how it will destroy you throwing your whole life into jeopardy. "Life without balance can cost you your relationship. Life without balance can cost you your health. Life without balance can cost you your spirituality. Life without balance can cost you your wealth and your happiness. So find things that motivate you from all areas of life. Your success depends on it"...Jim Rohn Jim was right about this, in all areas of life, man must be balance lest one side becomes denser than the others. Writer: Albert Benjamins
