Many articles demonstrate private Internet discourse on topics of ethics, morals and decency.The statements referred to by the authors, are treated fairly at ease.I let the audience imagine another private opinion, does not claim to absolute accuracy, what determines the golden rule.
The unanimous opinion of the ancient wise men (and they understand something in life)
rules of morality emerged in society, even if it only became public, that is, as soon as people began to live, becoming neighbors come to understand howshould behave in order to avoid conflicts and make living together the most comfortable and convenient.It is these principles, as the understanding of the needs of others, make golden rule: do not do to others what you would not want done to you.
«Mahabharata" - the ancient Indian epic, whose age is not known exactly, presumably the end of the IV millennium BC.This is the book on which India swear to speak the truth in court, because it is the only country that has no constitution.In this work, a lot of lines, which give a clear understanding of what should be the golden rule of morality.Deeds, not desirable in relation to your own, should not be made with respect to the other.
Confucius, Jesus Christ, the ancient historical monuments - the ancient Babylonian tale of Akihare, Buddha, and other sages of all times speak in unison about what not to do mischief to his neighbor - and then he will live a happy life.Why is it so difficult is the way of understanding a single person on the essence of simple and eternal truths?Why is it so difficult to implement the truth in life and follow the rules of morality?The answer is probably in the nature of man, as evidenced by another biblical parable of the wishes for himself good, "Lord, deprive me eyes!»
Morality, morality and decency
to ascertain the causes of people's actions and follow certain rules of morality andmorality - a philosophical question.And philosophers have never for themselves and society have not figured out anything, just look at the variety of definitions of morality in dictionaries, schools, trends, debates and opinions.You can agree or argue themselves hoarse, but the question of the correctness of moral character or condition of the individual and society at a given time period is still open.It was enough to phrases to say a few thousand years ago.But of the times and customs of the ancient sages cried, wringing her hands tragically, and now a chorus of skeptics also repeats this statement, remembering the rules of morality of youth.
decency, morality and ethics - are different concepts.A person can be quite decent (he wipes his hands on the tablecloth and spitting from the balcony), but deeply immoral, for example, throwing their children and does not care about their education.The moral man is unlikely to be manipulated baby trying to punish the spouse and fun to step on a sore spot, rejoicing that hurt, though it may violate certain rules of decency of any segment of the population (and they each social group his).Deeply moral and ethical person can not be honest, he was always true to his principles, he knows golden rule and keep it.
truth is everyone has their own, but the truth is the same for all
not need to sit for hours at the books or computer screen, reading different opinions about morality, to understand a simple truth: the man is divided only by the fact that he has.If in the long or the short span of his life, as a result of improper (or proper) education, he was able to save something in the soul, but now he generously distributes it to all who are close to him.And when a person's soul web, in the form of accumulated anger, envy and anger and hatred, he generously distributes the wealth of his soul around.
Knowingly soul called beautiful or ugly.Before you condemn someone for a wrong act or to speculate how and where to apply the golden rule of morality, look into your soul, honestly and impartially, as you judge others.Sweeping the dust and dirt out of your soul, then she is clean and updated, you will shine in the first place, bringing peace and calm, and then the happiness and love.Love with morality does not live in my head and in my heart.Only one of us hears it?Love we perceive as gender relations, but it is deeper and more extensive this perception.
Read the full definition of love in the letter of the apostle Paul, who speaks of love as an enduring truth: "Love is patient and kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up, does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evildoes not rejoice in iniquity ... »
Love, and everything in your life is moral and ethical
Our society is at fault, the formation of new concepts of morality and immorality, integrity and standards of conduct.And that's fine.We do not lack the morals, it's all right, it is determined by the people, in principle, everyone knows what he wants for himself, and thus knows golden rule.But love - the feeling is not transitory and divine, is going through very difficult times.Even the love of another person often wears ugly character that we talk about the love of his neighbor.Mankind has made a mistake, in all relying on the mind and remembering how sweet heart melts when you like.
Golden Rule morality of love to those who are close to you is hard to understand his head, but easy - heart.
