What are Rules

Buddha had said, “Doubt everything. Find your own light.”

With this, when we begin to question the rules we live by,

There’s a lot of dead wood there.

Rules, and by virtue of that, morals and values

Aren’t about meeting customs and conventions.

But, discarding rules can lead to lack of purpose and chaos.

Creating simple guiding principles keeps this at bay.

What are rules? The difference between right and wrong in thoughts, words and acts.

What is right? That which does good to others and to you.

What is wrong? That which doesn’t hurt others or you.

These simple principles help us live

Without worry, but with care for all.

    1. You are right and I’d say Life is also about coincidence. It is strange that you should mention the shift in Astrological Age when I’ve just begun ghost writing a book on Astrology.

  1. Sahi hai mam…. 🙂 – The only problem is that most of the human decisions are not conscious but instinct – Driven by Nature, Desires & Surroundings – Where we are almost helpless – Only thing we are left with is post analysis of it – and that’s the only time it looks so simple – Correct me if i’m wrong – 🙂
