In your current understanding what is the greatest power we as human Beings posses, either tapped or untapped?

Answer

Man has great power in changing his environment. We have plenty of evidence for that.brbrBut the greatest power a human being possesses is the power to change himself.brbrWhile we are in awe of great conquerors who shape history and inventors who change how we live, we worship those who show the power to change and transcend themselves Buddha, Lao Tze, Jesus Christ and Confucius come to mind. They all showed the world that mans greatest power lies in the power to overcome himself.brbrHe who conquers others is merely a slaughterer of corpses. For his enemies shall die of old age even if he does not kill them. But he is greatest who overcomes himself, for he overcomes all. Padmasambhava.
