What is right/good and what is wrong bad in life? How do you define it? Who is the right person to judge?

Question

Actually the answer is very simple.

You do anything in life.

The one which brings you closer to god then it is right (good)
The one which takes you away from god is wrong (bad)

How do you know ….

God is there is within you and me. We name it as Undher Athma, inner self or conscious. It tells you all the time what is right or wrong.

Most of the time we don’t listen to it
Most of the time we hear it but neglect it
Some times we go against it, as we cannot control our desires

Can we listen to our inner self and change from today. Trust me we do that we can be great individuals.

Answer 1

ya i agree god is in within us only
you know wrong and right is also suggested by us and to go on it is alos done by us so we should go on right path always its our gud thinking i think so

Answer 2

when something is right it has a reason behind it, and it is there to help someone, but not necessarily someone it can also be something.

we all tell things apart from there appearance in our heart and we all know through our self conscious if it is right or wrong
but the thing is we are not to decide if SOMEONE is good or bad.

we don't just decide to be bad or good it all depends of circumstances and how we go through life and how we take things. like they same some see the glass half empty and some see it half full.

it is just the way you take things and they way you believe in it.
i believe when someone starts acting in a "bad" way then they have defiantly gone through that has changed the way they think about something and are no just doing this for no reason

and the only person that should have the right to judge a person should be the one who made that person "god"

we are not that great of a person to be judging the person in such a strong way of saying clearly that you are wrong OR you are right. you are good OR you are bad. why can't it be in between.

that is just the way human nature is.
and we are trying every day to fix it

Answer 3

Excellent I had this all prepared for such an occasion that arises at this time
PHILIPPIANS 2 V 5-9
The attitude you should have is the one Christ Jesus had;
He always had the nature of God,but He did not think by force He should become equal with God.
Instead of this,of His own free will He gave up all He had,and
took the nature of a servant.
He became like man,and appeared in human likeness.
He was humble and walked the path of obedience all the way to death-- His death on the cross.
For this reason God raised Him to the highest place above
and gave Him the Name that is higher than any other Name.
Praise Jesus.The Word of The Lord.

Answer 4

Well Gentleman recall we discussed before that there is no defintion to Right and Wrong that is Absolute.Each person has there own means of juding Right from Wrong in any given situation based on what is in their heart,mind, soul, and conscience.Futhermore what is Good in one situation may be Bad in another situation.The best judge of Right from Wrong looks at you in the mirror.Of course one takes into account altruism.I mean it seems that Right is generally what is best for the majority while helping and respecting.As long as there is plenty,poverty is Evil.If you commit an act in a Court of Law your sanity is based on whether you know the difference between Right and Wrong.But Gentleman it appears to me that some people are so addicted to greed,selfishness,vanity,hate,etc.that they have blocked any sense of Right and Wrong from their conscience.I believe the court is incorrect and that everyone unless severly brain damaged are capable of distinguishing Right from Wrong in their own conscience.It seems easy for me to conclude that all wars,corruption,hate,prejudice,etc.has a basis in love of wealth,love of power,love of fame,etc.To proclaim someone wrong because of their financial status ,their race,creed ,or religion,ethnicity,whether it be the poor against the wealthy or the race against the race etc.is wrong to me.The Good and Bad should never be based on our Desires.Because we use the excuse we were too weak is no defense for doing what you know is wrong. I believe we will have a wonderful world when individuals learn to control their wants and/or desires and act on the best for the whole we would have a world far more peaceful.Now this is not always practical but it is the move in the proper direction.So I suppose you can say I agree with what you say and we must conquer or distinguish Needs from Wants and act on that basis.Your Pal larry m

Answer 5

Err, almost nothing in life is simple.

Sometimes men have to do morally questionable things to do good. When was the last time a tyrant was removed, peace restored without something morally questionable being done.

What if your family member do something illegal unintentionally? Would you turn him into a cruel prison system or cover it up?

No, people's conscious is not always a good indication of judgment, no matter if they feel God is with them or not. George W Bush appears to truly believe he is a born-again Christian - but his judgment sucks on nearly level.



Right Wrong and Judgment is NOT simple. If it was, our court system would be awesome. They're not. The decisions that leaders make would be easy. They're not. The world is full of mostly greys, with very few true rights or wrongs

Answer 6

I like shadower's answer, but it is true only for a person who has reached the stage of godhead.
Good and bad are relative terms, depending on time and space.
Lying to save the life of another living being might be good, but lying to get some wordily goods may be bad.
So if your motives are pure, you have your faculties under control, and you have good value system: then you can be judge for your self. You can not judge for others.

Answer 7

To be more conscious and alert towards our inner self we have to control our desires and thinking. Change in thinking towards positive things which can be beneficial to others will ,helps to be a good listener and a good human being.
Doing things which can harm any living thing is bad and getting rid of such habits will be good.

Answer 8

Before you begin to say what is good and what is exactly right or what is Bad....You have to say to yourself that you are wrong and only then find out what exactly is right..

Actually, the search for something right begins by challenging your own beliefs all that you had previously set onto your mind and then like to search for what is that the right thing is there?

Answer 9

Good and Bad,these are relative terms. One man's poison is an others medicine. To understand these one must have a Guru. Sadly a Guru, you can't find by hunting and looking for them. One fine day, your Guru will land up to guide you through this muck we humans have created

Answer 10

Every one has their own opinions that could change from day to day. Conversations are great coz you learn from them and from your own opinions and others as well. Have an open heart to all opinions and you can have a happier life. God Bless You.

Answer 11

dE@r gEnTLe m@n,

You yourself have answered the questions. That's exactly what i was going to say. But i do have some other points in my mind which i would like to write it down.

After faith in God, i think the right thing is to realize ones own's mistakes and faults and try to change it.

But the bad thing is that people really dont try to over come their mistakes.

I think its really not at all bad realizing your mistakes and then over coming it. Infact its really a very great achievement as people dont really like changes to be done in their life.

I would like to defend in the manner that everyone should realize the true worth of their lives and purpose of their lives and try to change himself as much for the sake of GOODNESS.

Their is really not any right person. Each human is right for his ownself as each human is responsible for his life. If we ourselves realize our mistakes then we surely can become the right persons, because as better we can judge ourselves, no one else can do that....right???....tc...sweet dreamz...bye....
