You are asking to compare two things which are incomparable.
- Changing the world is impossible.
- Changing the self is immediately possible.
Most people waste their life trying to change the world and in the process they themselves change to fit into the world.
No one can change the objective world, which always consists of good as well evil. .
- Many great saints, prophets and even Avatars of God tried to change the world, through love and spiritual knowledge but they failed.
- Many philosophers tried to change the world by giving the world new thoughts, but they too failed to change the world.
- Many kings and tyrants tried to change the world by sword and terror, but they also failed.
- Many revolutionaries tried to change the world by overthrowing the rulers and they too failed.
The objective world is never going to change.
However, it possible to change your subjective world to a great extent.
And that can be done by changing yourself.
- If you become good, the world becomes good to you.
- If you become evil, the world becomes evil to you.
Hence, be the change that you wish to see in the world.
When you make yourself good, your world becomes good to you, though the same world would continue to remain evil for other people who are themselves evil.
