No one can decide who is a good human being or a bad human
being. No one has right to judge others.
Everyone has right to live according to own beliefs and choices. On this
has gone to other extreme and led to deterioration in over all state of
humanity. Humanity has been spoiled by narrow minded selfish interest and manipulation.
Situation is alarming. Money has taken undue importance and the resultant
destructive competition has led to manipulation, deceit and conflicts. This has
become a vicious circle and even the ‘good people’ succumb to this.
Example
In recent news there was an article that in one developed
country, doctors are sending patients to radiation therapy in place of cheaper
possible treatment because they earn more by doing this. And this is not
limited to one country or doctors, but is prevalent worldwide in all sections
of society. The deceit can be among individuals, in family, in neighborhood, in
offices and professions, in sports, in politics nationally and inter
nationally. The short sightedness of people looking for easy gains from lowest
to highest level is something like termites eating away the structure which
will for sure crumble irrespective of the force that can be applied to keep it
intact.
The deceit is going up to the genes. The result is
disastrous. The elements of humanity are getting wiped away. There is erosion
of positive values like trust, kindness, fairness, empathy etc. People
cooperate for selfish interest rather than welfare of all. People’s minds are polluted.
They either succumb to cheating due to greed or because they lack courage to be
honest and face life as it comes.
The epidemic of deceit, cheating and manipulation is leaving
no one. Casualties are high. Strange that we all feel bad when cheated but we
do same in one form or other.
What is the effect?
A society characterized by suspicion, anger, conflicts,
destruction. There is no need of another world war. A slow death of humanity is
already in progress. The visible wars that we will see will only be the
manifestation of this internal sickness called greed and deceit.
If we wish to prevent this then those sane and sensible must
set the process rolling. Do not try to change others. Change yourself. Remember
these three words.
Good Strong United
Good: Commit yourself to be a good human being. Even if you
have done something wrong in past, do not feel hesitant. Just start the process
of becoming a good human being. Eliminate every evil thought from mind. Do not
compete with others in money or other worldly things. Develop your human
qualities. That is your richness. The real richness. You are the best and you
must know that you are better than deceitful people.
Strong: A good human
being is strong. Feel the strength of honesty inside. This is not a destructive
force but is constructive energy. Stand against injustice and fight for others
and your rights. Being a good human being will eliminate all fears from your
mind and heart.
United: Shed hopelessness. Meet other good people and get
united to uphold honesty and humanity. Slowly others will realize the
importance of humanity and will follow the path. The drops of humanity will
form the ocean.
Let us change our self to save humanity and create a better
world for our self and coming generations.
