Being comfortable is one thing, but taking
comfort in knowing that others are just as comfortable is the best thing.
Personal wellbeing is one thing, but knowing that your wellbeing is not at the
expense of someone else’s welfare is everything.
If for the time being you’re disadvantaged, be
pleased about the comfort of those who are advantaged, so that no scope of
desire will blind you into wishing discomfort on the comfortable, and if you’re
fortunate, overstand that the protection of your fortune cannot be guaranteed
if you try to block out the prospects of the poor.
That’s what communal conscience is all about.
It’s about willingness to be there for not just you, but for others as well.
It’s about making everyone feel worthy of a momentous life. It’s about not just
saying: “you know what, my life is all right - the rest of humankind can go to
hell.” Communal conscience is about commitment to the gains of unselfishness.
Don’t allow your lust for luxury to suffocate
someone else’s necessity. Let your kindness be as effectual in real life as it
is in theory. Keep striving for greatness and prestige, they’re natural human
cravings, but do not forget to also give others a chance to improve.
Selfishness is sinfulness and that’s a universal truth.
TESTIMONY: "None of
you will believe until you love for your brother what you love for
yourself" – Hadith of the Day. “Do as to others what you want to yourself” – Golden Rule. “Our prime purpose in this life is to help others, and if you can't help
them, at least don't hurt them” - Dalai Lama.. “We are not born for ourselves
alone.” –
