HUMAN BEINGS and THEIR NEEDS

22 March 2025 by fatihelibol in Coaching

• Is it good for you and the world?
• Is it good for you, bad for the world?
• What is the biggest step you can take with respect to reaching your dreams?

While identifying the areas that require us to make an action plan, determining our actions step by step on issues we are not satisfied with or issues where we want to increase our satisfaction makes the path to the point we want to reach both visible and easier.

Knowing the first action step of your action plan and the biggest step you can take makes you take the responsibility for the management of your own path. Being able to establish your authority and set your limits in life will always get you to yourself, first. The awareness you gain through coaching sessions, like a sign, a wisdom that comes at the point where you lose your way, is the way to get rid of the hazy and confusing situations.

Coaching sessions pave the way for you to move forward in situations where you sabotage yourself in the journey of your path or when you are sabotaged from the outside, without behaving with a state of anger, aggression, rage, without being bitter, and giving in to your ambitions even if you are treated hurtfully.

The most basic issue that we are sabotaged externally as a society is the concept of BEING HUMAN, which we have witnessed with the recent natural events. Because being human before all our visionary goals is kind of like reaching our home. Home sweet home…

What makes it possible to experience peace of mind in our lives?

Being able to be human and remain human in life is a powerful awareness. For this awareness, it is important for a person to know their needs. But before we get there, we should know that there is no definition of evil in the concept of the human. Everything about the state of being human is inside the person, and everything about evil is free from the concept of being human.

In some way, this is a state of neutralization awareness by moving away from bad thoughts. It is clear, pure, pristine consciousness. However, it is also to live without judgment of the bad while making choices on the side of the good, being fully aware of the bad and the good. Or else, all the potential to be defined about evil exists in each individual. It is the choices that determine humanity. Being human involves looking at everyone and everything from an equal distance. It is being able to look without distinctions such as language, religion, color, geography, culture. It is essentially self-knowledge with a perspective free from adjectival definitions.

All People are good. However, they have the potential to do evil. To some good is good, to others evil is evil … Every wrongdoer has a good reason for themselves. Those who caused all the bad things in the world had a good reason for themselves. Some burned to get rich. Some left waste in the area after they had fun. Some built and sold houses in the wrong place for their own plans. While some wanted to live with a better quality of life, they remained silent.

So, what do humans need?

Let’s look at Maslow‘s hierarchy of needs together here. HUMAN BEINGS have basic biological and physiological needs such as food, shelter, clothing, and security needs such as work, property, family, health, security, order, law. To love, to be loved, to gain trust and acceptance, friendships, privacy are their needs of love and belonging.

Along with the needs of status, reputation, power, reliability, recognition, responsibility, respect; knowledge, understanding, interpretation, discovery and curiosity are their cognitive needs. Towards the top of the hierarchy of needs, these areas of need start becoming more specialized. Now, with aesthetic needs, needs of self-actualization begin.

With appreciation, form, beauty, balance, naturalness, morality, problem-solving, creativity, being unbiased, the needs of transcendence begin at the top. Human is a whole with all these needs arising from concepts such as experiences related to nature, mystical experiences, religious beliefs, following science, helping others, sexual experiences, and desires. Every person displays tendencies according to their personal interests in order to meet their needs. The issue is, while providing these needs, not to destroy, not to burn, and not to eliminate…

• The choice is yours, what do you choose to generate and create in your world?
• Is it good for you and the world?
• Is it good for you, bad for the world?

Even if we look at it in terms of religious beliefs, if you do what you do to be accepted in heaven or if you do what you do to escape from hell, how can we talk about self-knowledge and being human there? With the mind, many things are explained and one can get to a certain place.

However, this is not enough and as a master says, “You cannot find what you are looking for in books, break the tip of the pen, our next journey is the journey of Love. Pen doesn’t write love so you can find it in books. When love rubs off on you, you become one with yourself, because humanity dissolves duality and brings unity. It is not the shape but the heart that abides…”

Whatever is in the heart of a person is reflected externally, and in their words, and the desire of that heart carries you to humanity. What is a person’s view of life? A person knows that as there is good and evil, concepts and values will always exist with their contrasts. One also knows that the side they choose will determine who they are.

Everyone has the potential for evil in them, in this aspect. The strongest ILLUSION is the evil one does while doing what is good for himself. A person who has not internalized the concept of US beyond the concept of me and you can do evil when they think that they are doing good. Basically, everyone serves their own needs and interests.

These tendencies open up another area in life, whether you are aware of it or not. RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE RESULT OF ACTIONS… Some masters say that troubles always guide people, and they address this by saying that in fact, the troubles weigh the coyness of man’s humanity. Here Mevlana compares the journey of the reed to a human, saying that it follows the voice like the nay. In fact, he explains in his stories that the reed makes a sound not when things are attached to it but when the internal and external excesses in it are removed. He continues by saying, if the man is aware of how little he knows, his learning begins. This is how the path of goodness to oneself and the world opens.

• Have you ever thought that the world is not worth living in?
• Have others made you think that the world is not worth living in?
• What are the emotional burdens you carry into your world?
• How do your emotional burdens interfere with you while you struggle not to live on the edge of disaster?
• What makes you realize that the world is worth living in?

Science proves that we are beings of pure energy. So, what does the weight of these emotional burdens do to us? Captive emotions always make us heavier. The energies of the emotions you hold in your body are with you. Scientific and Medical studies have proven that these feelings are the symptomatic causes of Physical Symptoms.

• What weights do you hold captive for your humanity?
• How is it possible to reach the peace of being human?
• What destroys a person’s humanity?
• Which choices lead to humanity?
• What are the choices that will create rapid change?
• What emotions would you like to have with you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week?

Please think about these. We all have emotional burdens.

• What gets us to the point of being good to ourselves and the world?
• What does this have to do with your heart and the source of love?
• Honestly; what was the essence of our existence?

Scientific studies have proven that there are 40 thousand cells in the heart alone. It has been stated that the heart has a cellular structure that works independently of the brain and has its own auto-control, and science calls it the small brain in our body. Whereas the modern world is ruled by the mind, traditional structures were ruled by the heart.

• Looking at this information from where we are now; what is in these little brain cells, in the center of our heart?
• What do you bring to our center and focus?
• What makes us perceive the other person as bad?
• How do we decide on the action for our needs and goals?
• How do we choose the way to reach our needs and goals?

The way to light up a dark room is to turn on the light. To internalize unity and harmony is to focus on the solution instead of focusing on the problems. As in all areas, the solution starts with awareness and the right kind of communication. Redeeming succinct speeches, spaces that reinvigorate the heart are the main INTENTION of right communication.

It initiates the process that will take you beyond illusions. Nobody is presented as anybody. As seen in the hierarchy of needs, we learn through experience. Yet, we understand this after a certain period of time. Controlled communications without judging and without being judged give us wisdom in the process and the end result. The essence of the life we live is the seeds of our humanity. Our main power to create the life we want and follow that path is always our humanity.

Everyone has a plan for a life in which they will be happy to live. What makes it easier for us to create this plan that is different for all of us, with kindness to ourselves and the world? How do we get ourselves out of the space in which we are trapped? Being willing and ready to try different approaches changes a lot in our lives.

People show reactive tendencies towards areas defined as good or bad against positive or negative inputs in their life.

What drives us to tend to be good people or bad people?

When we decide what we want to focus on, when we examine the connection we have made with whatever point of input we have chosen, analysis begins.

• What are the emotions pushing you back or forward in life?
• Are these yours or did you inherit them from someone?  
• Please consider. How can solutions be developed easily and quickly?
• How can human needs be met without harming the world?

With this blog post, I invited you to the conscious awareness of whether your behavioral tendencies make you a good person or a bad person. Please share your thoughts with me in the comments.

Take care of your humanity without engaging in the drama and giving your own power to saboteurs. Let’s increase the emotions of humanity with the awareness of unison and cooperation. We have had the strong resilience and flexibility of humanity since the beginning of time. The miracle of human beings is starting over and enabling to start over. With my wish to be reborn from our ashes, let’s embrace the heart of our humanity, and together let’s take the biggest step we can take that will bring good to ourselves and the world.
