I read this article long time back. Amazing read! Shows how important having good (read genuine) set of core values are and how important the "Do Good" principle is in today's world.
The problem in today's world is the menace of ego, actions and decisions coming from ego-driven values. PG talked about "Doing good", but where does one draw the line between good and bad? As long as the ego controlled mind exists and controls all our actions and decisions, the "Doing good" principle will be merely reduced to just another mechanism for satisfying the ego's ulterior motives.
I might be sounding a bit idealistic here, but what do you guys think?
