Lessons from Mahabharata-5
This has been a perennial question..
why one should be Dharmic…. What it is and how to implement it… the whole of
Mahabharata is an explanation of that subject…. Gita starts with Dharma Kshetre Kurukshetre…
- All men who live on this earth, are filled with doubts regarding the nature of Righteousness. What is this that is called Righteousness? Whence does Righteousness come?— Yudhishthira, Shanti Parva, Mahabharata
- Righteousness begets happiness as its
fruit;
There is nothing superior to truth; Everything is supported by truth, and everything depends on truth. - One should not take other's properties, that is an eternal duty;
-
A thief fears everybody, he considers other people as sinful as himself;
A pure hearted person is always filled with cheerfulness, and has no fear from anywhere; Such a person never sees his own misconduct in other persons.. - A person should never do that to others, which he does not like to be done to him by others;
- Whatever wishes one cherishes about his own self, one should certainly cherish regarding another.
- The Creator ordained Virtue, gifting it with the power of holding the world together.— Bhishma, Shanti Parva, Mahabharata
Unfortunately even now the above questions rage in many forums… national and international… with out any definite answers.
