Behavior affects Future

 

Your behavior is a good indicator of your future. A person's behavior serve as a conduit through which he creates an environment not only for himself but also for other people. Even if you practise good behavior, this does not guarantee that you will not pass away prematurely.

One may envision how a person would be spending their life if they exhibited such behaviour, which is relevant when it comes to prediction. Human beings are always quick to pass judgement and are always interested in learning about the future. In addition to this, he uses his perception to evaluate his own mistakes as well as the mistakes of others.

The behaviour of a person is one of the indicators that can be used to determine their future. Some examples of behaviour include being impolite, courteous, neutral, confrontational, disputing, showing dominance, providing assistance, and feeling overwhelmed. Every single one of them leads to a particular accomplishment that one could want to accomplish.

Imagine that you have to get through a gate that is located at a distance of 500 meters. The path is kept active by the presence of both people and automobiles. But how exactly do you plan to approach the gate?

Either you may approach it in a serious manner, disregarding any distractions that may be in your way, or you may take a casual approach to getting there by conversing with the people around you, sharing a vehicle, or approaching it by looking at the view side by side. It is possible for you to be of any kind, and your behaviour will be helpful in anticipating your journey that you will undergo to reach your objectives. Moreover, life is full of a variety of objectives, isn't it.

Hunger for Respect.

Positive karma will naturally elicit admiration. The majority of individuals endeavour to emulate others in order to earn their admiration. This is an inherent occurrence.

However, when the longing for respect becomes excessive to the point where an individual begins to conform to others' expectations, it becomes problematic. An individual engaged in commendable endeavours does not seek to obtain admiration. It commands respect effortlessly, without the need to coerce others into giving it.

What is a commendable/good act?

An action performed with genuine and impartial intention is considered a virtuous deed/act. Engaging in work-field with sincerity constitutes a virtuous action. Engaging in altruistic behaviour is considered a commendable action.

Engage actively in your karma and it will accumulate until you are fully content. If not, it may become habitual for you to consistently engage in actions that generate positive karma until it reaches its pinnacle, so providing you with a sense of fulfilment in the next stage. The objective is to consistently engage in positive actions until you achieve a state of contentment.

Occasionally, it is necessary to vigorously defend one's virtuous actions. Overcoming such objections that arise when engaging in virtuous actions is a straightforward task. Nature possesses both a formidable and captivating beauty. Nature offers the world a variety of objects that exist in pairs. Therefore, it is necessary to demonstrate both affection and aggression in your actions. You are compelled to proceed with both options.

Why I chose Non-Vegetarian food.

The consumption of raw or cooked meat is not solely based on flavour, but also on the underlying rationale that the world presents to us.

Carnivores prey on other organisms in order to consume their flesh. Consequently, it is inherent in our nature to engage in killing for sustenance. There is no moral wrongdoing in rationalising the act of taking the lives of animals solely for the purpose of consumption. Flesh can also be considered a type of sustenance.
How does the act of consuming food become morally wrong?

I am willing to offer myself as sustenance if necessary, but, the issue is in the experience of pain. The human body is equipped with the sensation of pain by nature as a means of safeguarding us from mortal harm. This is a rationale for why nature desires our continued connection to this planet. Pain is an essential component in the struggle for survival. Without experiencing pain, there will be no progress or improvement.

In the Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna advised Arjuna to engage in meditation while seated on a deer skin, as it is considered the most optimal method of meditation for a yogi. Utilising deer skin now entails the act of hunting deer for the purpose of obtaining their skin. Is that not considered a sin? It is not so for Lord Krishna. Krishna stated that he is the ultimate cause of every action, and so, you are only a tool or instrument through which he operates.

In Ayurveda, the consumption of cow's flesh is recommended for the treatment of diseases or ailments. Cow meat is effective in treating dry cough, fatigue, excessive hunger, intermittent fevers, emaciation, and other ailments. Evidently, the consumption of beef has been observed to have a significant impact on both its culinary uses and its potential for treating various ailments. How can the act of consuming food be considered a sin? Despite its therapeutic properties for treating illnesses.
When deciding to consume meat, it is advisable to avoid attempting to demonstrate that it is a sinful act. Food is a necessity for both pleasure and survival, and it is unfair to hold anyone accountable for consuming it.

Bhagwad Gita: Mixing Varnas and its bad consequences.

Regarding the Sanatan tradition, caste is paramount. In the Bhagavad Gita, Arjuna emphasizes the value of dharma and caste. Take note of what he said to Lord Krishna as he begged for assistance.


Chapter 1: Shlok 39
Arjuna saying:

When dynasties fall and family traditions are lost, there is a rise in irreligious practices.

With irreligion and mixture of the varnas, women become immoral and produce unwanted children, O' Krishna.

The unwanted population makes existence a living hell for one and all. Even the ancesters are doomed, being deprived of sacrificial offerings of food and water.
