!!!! So said Mahatma Gandhi SEVEN DEADLY SINS !!!!!
“Generations to come will scare believe that such a one as this ever in flesh and blood walked upon the earth , “ Albert Einstein wrote of Mohandas Gandhi.
The world will witness 2nd October, birth of two great personalities from India Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi and Lalbahadur Shastri ,.
Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was a man considered one of the great sages and prophets. , Indians called him the ‘Father of the Nation’. People showered love, respect and devotion in an unprecedented measure. During Independence movement he was almost an incarnation of God, who had come to break the chains of slavery. And hence was popularly called MAHATMA the whole world bowed to him in reverence. Even his opponents held him in great respect.
Truth was his sole guiding star. In days of ever changing situation of Freedom movement he was often found inconsistent. But he preferred to be consistent only with the light within. He believed life without principles is like a Ship without rudder, just as a ship without rudder is tossed about from place to place and never reaches its destination, so will a man without the heart- grasp of principles, without ever reaching his desired goal ,
On October, 22 1925. He Published a List he called the seven social sins in day to day life in his weekly newspaper “YOUNG INDIA “
Seven deadly sins:
- Wealth without work
- Pleasure without work
- Knowledge without character
- Commerce without morality
- Science without humanity
- Religion without sacrifice
- Politics without principles
All seven principles are significant. However as a professionals we need to be vigilant about three:
- Wealth without work
- Commerce (profession ) without ethics
- Knowledge without character
We all have earned wealth with work – hard work. We practice the profession with ethics.
We have acquired and we disseminate knowledge with character
Friends there are some things, which a man does by word of mouth, some by observing silence and yet others by action. If all that he does is informed by knowledge, it is a action indeed
Of course there is nothing that cannot be attained by patience and equanimity. The truth of this can be verified in one`s daily experience ……….
An ideal is one thing; living up to it is quite another…….
Mahatma strongly believed It is better to be hated for what you are, than to be loved for what you are not“. Yet, by and large, people love to be loved for what they are not, as they are dreadfully afraid of what they are within
Hence the true test of a man’s character is what he does when no one is watching Integrity is doing the right thing, even no one is watching
Are we doing the right and honest things when nobody is looking? Are you teaching younger generation to do the same?
The environment in which we operate is transitory and represents the ever changing interplay of variety of factors, technological advances, macroeconomic developments and socio political forces and yet, certain values and principles are indeed eternal. Let us work to rekindle them on the Mahatma`s birthday falling in October.
Do spare a few moments from your precious time to ponder over the above, Most certainly, our future and that of our next generation is at stake.
!!! TREAT OTHERS THE WAY YOU WANT TO BE TREATED.!!!! !!! REMEMBER THE SOUL IS ON JOURNEY !!!!
