Was just thinking this, did a search, and found your post. My thoughts were specifically regarding ideas in place of means - I suppose the "means" can be taken as ideas and the application of them, or "the way of". In this context: "If the right man thinks the wrong ideas, the wrong ideas grow in the right way." (The 'balanced' or 'wise' human can learn of the rationalities for human cruelty and, rather than adopt them, recognize their place within the mind and reality). Or, on the transmission of ideas: "If the persuasive man transmits the unpersuasive idea, the unpersuasive idea is perceived to be persuasive." This is the inherit human flaw within a rhetoric-based reality in which many people seem to live. What do you think? Further applications? Thanks for reading!

Raveena Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 In the Bhagavad Gita, lord Krishna also uses "treachery" to win the war. Why "treachery", because it was harmless and resulted into righteousness. For the specifics, I would recommend you to read the Bhagavad Gita or the Mahabharat. In other words, if the right people selflessly use treachery, with the result being right, it could be overlooked. However, in the recent yuga, the people and the circumstances that can be overlooked are hard to find. So better be safe than sorry. Do not create unnecessary bad karma; be and do good at all times.
