Difficulty of being good

Just finished reading this book..The blog is not meant to give you guys a summary of the book..I am trying to put what I understood and learnt from this book..

The author, Gurucharan Das, has picked up a very well known story, the Mahabharata, and analyzed few key characters to bring out the difficulties that we mortals face every day as we live our lives..

1. You are the choices you make

2. Ends do not justify means NOR do means justify ends - Difference is subtle

3. World is made up of good and bad people - Be both to both types

4. Compassion is supreme - Put yourself in other people's shoes

5. "Why me" is not the right question to ask when in difficulties.

6. Dharma is subtle - What is right to you may not be right to other
