Dear Editor,
April 5 was recognised as Golden Rule Day. Every day is the Golden Rule day. The way the universe works is simply Golden Rule by act and virtue.
However precious this is to me, it is to you- that we live by the fact, without reference to one hundred alternative religious and philosophical Golden Rule statements: – that I will do unto others what I would love others to do to me. So congrats to Mussie Hailu! He pioneered the Golden Rule poster in Ethiopia with Scarborough Missions and has ever since made it global.
It’s a shame that world leaders need this reminder but hardly children. Have you seen how much fun children and seniors could be- just innocent laughter? They may hurt each other, yet quickly that say sorry and move on; because it’s just fun-filled living!
Be and let others be! The Gandhian rule is live and let others or the traffic rules of give way safely so others may drive safely or political integrity requires giving credence to the action based profile and not the character-attack loud-speak:- all contribute to this rich mosaic of living the art of not hurting others.
So with the environment, live so others may live and with love make it the best and not fight over silly things.
The list goes on! Mother Nature always has the golden rule as number one! So when disasters strike it’s not God’s wrath and human sin clashing but nature of things- just as you would not liked to be judged in such a situation think the same for the victims of nature’s unfortunate victims.
When you retaliate with human lives and burning of your own scriptures you violate the Golden rule of Islam- Do not blaspheme the religions of others because of their attack on yours.
For me, that is the most powerful the rule of living and Islam stands for making you feel ‘You’!
