Doing good in return for evil is the correct morality.

- Swami Chinmayananda

When we come out to play the game of life from womb to tomb over this strangestage called the world, there are many scenes produced by our Karmaphala " and directed by the God. It is said in Mahabharata that as the shadow follows a person wherever he goes, similarly the fruit of action of any person follows him from birthto death, from one birth to another birth and so on until the person dissolves his entity into the Pure Self.

Therefore everybody has to face the good and the evil erupting from the same world. Most of the time we respond to the goodness as liking and craving for the one through which goodness reaches us rather than absorbing the goodness within us also and expressing the gratitude to the God who is the disperser of fruit; similarly when the evil or bad comes to us we react to it as the disliking and abhorrence for the doer of that evil rather than

rejecting that evil within us and cultivating the dispassion for the world. In short, more important than getting and giving is forgetting and forgiving, more important than the personal doer of action is the impersonal actor behind the action, more important than the seen expression is the unseen impression. The difference between the ordinary and extraordinary is not in the knowledge of intellect but it is in the attention of mind, the difference between the saint and the sinner is not in their aptitude but it is in their attitude.

The world is not only intellectual gymnasium wherein we have come to increase our aptitude but it is also a mental shrine wherein one comes to discover an attitude which is free from the prejudices of sobs and sighs, passion and pride, likes and lust. The attitude which gives us the vision of oneness in manliness,
