Was listening to Buddha Bar yesterday (I am a big fan of the series) and some words caught me from the song Karma.
What is right? And What is wrong?
In the ocean of choice?
That’s what I heard, but I think it’s actually “ocean of joy” and not “ocean of choice”.
I will leave you thinking…
You can’t think much of those words without listening to the audio. The impact of those words is because of the music pumping feelings to your head. Its all in the head.
As for those words, I just came to work and read those and thought –
What is right? And what is wrong?
Well, what is right is right. And what is wrong is wrong. :p
Sorry if I messed it up for ya. 🙂
My interpretation:
What is right and what is wrong, is all relative! It’s all a choice you make. What’s right for you need not be right for another. There is no absolute right or wrong.
There is no absolute right or wrong.
A very dangerous premise you are proposing here… I agree with Vaibhav
Right and wrong keeps changing according to the context. It was considered right to burn after your dead husband a few decades back, it’s not right anymore. It was absolutely positively wrong to go beyond a particular point in the ocean when people believed the earth is flat!
It was wrong to “break off” with your employer a couple of years ago. It’s right now. Of course, it’s right from the employee’s side, not from the employer’s! See the difference?
😉
You are social constraints, lack of knowledge with moral premise here.
The first was a social constraint in the historical times when being raped by the victor was definitely a not better option.
The second is lack of knowledge and the third is a moral premise – Loyalty is still the right thing! ask anyone
Right is right as much as 1 is 1, 100s of 1000s believing a wrong to be right does not make it right either
See the difference 🙂
Ugh! just read the comment and noticed missing words and transposed articles – thats what happens when you talk on phone while replying to comments 😉
Let’s take this on when we meet 😉 It will be an interesting conversation!
“what is right and what is wrong in the ocean of joy…”
that’s what she says…
but than again she repeat
“what is right an what is wrong our most cherish and long fence desire…”
