Guest guest Posted May 7, 2003 Report Share Posted May 7, 2003 " There is no virtue in what people commonly call morality. There is only virtue in something that arises from our innermost - from that which comes up from within us and expresses itself outward. We cannot do that through the mind. To do that through the mind is to employ a moral vehicle, a moral structure, and that only makes us self-righteous, makes us judgmental of others. When you have a moral structure and you live by moral standards, then you are a 'somebody' who you perceive is more than somebody else, or less than somebody else. But then it is only a judge who is living. So everything is viewed through comparison, through the judgement of oneself and the judgement of others. Living in a moral code or moral structure is the elimination of love.
