Guest guest Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 What are the 5 Human Values? Thinking with love is truth. Feeling with love is peace. Acting with love is right conduct. Understanding with love is non-violence What is dharma? Practicing what you preach, doing as you say it has to be done, keeping precept and practice in line. Earn virtuously; yearn piously; live in the fear of God, live for reaching God; that is dharma.What exactly is your duty? Let me summarize it for you. First, tend your parents with love and reverence and gratitude. Second, speak the truth and act virtuously. Third, whenever you have a few moments to spare, repeat the name of the Lord with form in your mind. Fourth, never indulge in talking ill of others or try to discover faults in others. And finally, do not cause pain to others in any form.Every profession, every stage of life, each sex, each period of life as fixed by age . childhood, boyhood, adolescence, youth, middle age, old age . has duties and obligations, which set the norm and guide the individual to benefit himself and society.The secret of happiness is not in doing what one likes, but in liking what one has to do. Whatever work you have to do, you should do it with pleasure and liking. Your conscience knows the real source of joy; it will prod you towards the right path. Your business is to take it as a guide and not disobey it every time it contradicts your fancy.The body is the temple of God. In every body, God is installed, whether the owner of the body recognizes it or not. It is God that inspires you to do good acts and warns you against the bad. Listen to that voice. Obey that voice and you will not come to any harm.When you travel towards God, whoever objects has to be bypassed. Prahlada went against his father, Vibhisana went against his brother, Parasurama had to harm his own mother, Meera could not obey her husband. They stuck to the path of God and broke through all those who opposed them.Do all work as actors in a play, keeping your identity separate and not attached to your personality or your role. Remember that the whole thing is just a play and the Lord has assigned you a part. Act well your heart; there all your duty ends. He has designed the play and He enjoys it.Dharma is characterized by holiness, peace, truth, and fortitude.
