BAD and GOOD

Again, sleepless night after drinking cappuccino bubble tea.
I been up all night browsing website and read something interesting and would like to share with you........


There students have been questioned how good and bad could be mistaken for each other.
A teacher asked each of them to express thier opinion on what is bad and good:

One student said " that to yell at and hit others was bad where to respect and treat others in a polite way was good "

Teacher said " Not Necessarily"

2nd students said " Being greedy and taking others money was bad while being generous and behaving properly was good"

Again Teacher said " Not Necessarily"

The remaining students all expressed their point of views on what was bad and good but the teacher alwyas concluded " Not Necessarily"

Question from me " what do you think is the right answer?"

Teacher said
" To do things for the benefit of others is good and to do thing for self-benefit is bad. If what we do is for the sake of benefiting others , then it does not matter if we yell at or hit them and it is good. Butif our intention is for self-benefit then regardless of our appearance of respect and courtesy it is bad"

Just wondering how many of us actually did what the story describe as who we are? When we help other do we really sincerly help without asking any favor back from other or expecting something in return in the future?

My guess is: majority we are and in fact we do expecting something in return if we held our hand for helps.

It is sad but it is true in this society.

" Praticing goodness solely to benefit others is consider public benefit and is real goodness.
If we onlt think of ourselves while doing good acts then that is consider private benefit and is
false goodness.
When goodness springs from the heart, it is real goodness.
But when we do something good just because others are doing so. it is false
When we do good without expecting anthing in return, it is real goodness"

Those who wish to practise real goodnes need to consider all these differences.

What are " Honest Goodness" amd Crooked Goodness"?

People today aften look upon an extremely conservative and nice person as good as kind. However, the ancient sages and virtous people have shown that they preffered those who appear to be complirnt and dignified. As for those who appear to be compliant and careful in thier actions, everyone may like them but sages often speak of them as" thives of virtue".
From this, we can see that the viewpoint of ordinary people on good and bad differs greatly from that of sages and virtues people.

"Honest Goodness"
isto be respectful and come from the thought to sincerly help all others

" Crooked Goodness"
is to act without sincerty and arise from the thought to flatter others to abtain what we want.

To Love other is honest and to hate others and be jealous is crooked . These all need to be very carefully differentiated.

After reading it, i do felt that most of us are react like the way the story been told.
And i do realise even i myself somtimes react " crooked goodness" maybe for sake of attentions or asking in return. Not many of us can practise what i have written there but if we really try our best to do more honest goodness....... It will make a different in this world.....

I ,myself and me is trying best to improve the myself by doing more goodness with my
sincere heart to help others. Yet, i do have to admit i do need time and again i dont really trust people when they ask for help and sometime i do judge them and carefully analyse if they needed the help.
** yeah, i saw too many drama in front me... cant blame**

So, thats why i prefer to help animals more than human. ( another selective goodness... i know ;p )
From the animal expression sometimes i can tell they do need help and genuinely need us to help them unlike human.... many of us very good in acting.
Well, like i always said " The Oscar award goes to who and who"
Human know how to Act innocent and so f*&^king bored.!
