Good Values
Love
We need to Love nature and all fellow beings.
Why should we Love nature?
Nature provides us with all our needs like air, water, light, food, place to live, etc. Therefore we need to Love and preserve nature.
Why should we Love all fellow beings?
We all know "You need to treat others as how you like to be treated". So we need to first give Love to receive the same in return. It is also told by several spiritual leaders that "Hatred cannot be quenched with hatred but only by Love".
Love is the fundamental value that brings in all other good values like
1. Peace, where ever Love exist there is no hatred and peace prevails.
2. Non Violence, since when we Love nature and all fellow beings we will not harm them in any way.
3. Righteousness/Right Action
Right action means that your thoughts, words and deeds should work together.
God's three H's head, heart and hands are the way to understand.
Take thoughts from your head, put them into your heart.
Take thoughts your heart, put them into your hands
That is right action
Giving satisfaction
If your objective is to Love all, your thoughts will be pure, your words will be pure and actions will be pure.
Ways to keep your thoughts, words and deeds pure:
1. Avoid Bad company: Avoid company of people with drugs, who say mean things and physically hurt people.
2. See good (see right programs on electronic devices)
3. Hear Good (listen to parents, teachers, etc.)
4. Speak Good (do not say mean things to anyone, use soft loving speech with everyone)
5. Do Good (follow right actions set by parents, teachers, etc.)
6. Shreyas vs. Preyas
Shreyas is praying and meditating on the God inside you.
Preyas is enjoying worldly pleasures.
Both Shreyas and Preyas are needed. You should dedicate time for Shreyas and have a limited time on Preyas.
