WHO IS GOOD? WHO IS BAD?







Hey, how are you?
I am sure; you are doing good and having a special and different day wherever you are.
If otherwise, let me wish, that this day be really great for you!

May I put my words as simple as me...? (Smiling) 
Thank You!

Past few days, I was thinking who on earth is really BAD, and who is really GOOD.


Well, Lord Krishna already created the course material, a live exercise to help us understand.

Years and years back, he chose two people, rather two special people, two kings for his assignment.

That was to test their wisdom, in fact.

Or may be that was to help them understand a real fact, a truth.

Duryodhana was famous for his cruelty, his savage violence and inhumane nature.

Krishna assigned Duyodhana to find out “One true Good Man”, after searching all over the world.

After spending a long time, roaming all over, and after knowing people across the world, he returned with this answer. 

“I have searched the whole world. 
People are all selfish and wicked. 
I could not find a single man in this world, who is truly good.”
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hmmm, now disappointed with his finding? Hear the second part of this.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Next turn was for Yudhishtira (Dharmmaraja), who was loved by every one, for being generous and benevolent. 

Krishna assigned him to find out “One true wicked man”, in the whole world.

Like Duryodhana, Yudhishtira too spent a very long time, in searching for that true evil, and most wicked man in the world.

He came back to report his finding that,

“I have seen the entire world.
People are misled, misguided, misunderstood, ignorant, and blind.
They act in darkness, without knowing the truth.
They fail every time by doing so.
But they are all good by heart.
I could not find a single man who can be called as wicked.”
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey, now… I am thinking, based on Krishna’s assignment to these kings and looking at the results they have got.

You tell me, if we do a similar assignment NOW, are we going to see a different result?
I guess, the result will be the same.

What I liked the most is the second part of the assignment and really touched by the answer which Yudhishtira gave.

In my opinion, that’s the real truth and that’s what is happening everywhere and with everyone.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

But I really wish, if each one of us could realize this – that,
There is no one called a TRUE GOOD PERSON or a TRUE BAD PERSON.

The story is very nice.What i beleive is that there is NO ONE bad,Its their circumstances that make them do bad(to other people eyes) things.

I should say, a very nice blog.. keep going.. and about the answer, Before reading the blog itself, i was having the same thought as the second guy.. Every one is so good in their heart. Its by their circumstances, and other reasons they are acting like bad people.. :)
