Therefore it is with duty. The idea of work varies much among different nations. In one single country, if a guy does not do specific things, people will say he has acted wrongly; while if he does those very things in another country, people will say that he did not act correctly -- and yet we all know that there must be some common concept of duty. In the same way, one class of society thinks that particular things are among its work, while if it had to complete these things still another class thinks quite contrary and would be horrified.

Two ways are left open to us -- the way of the ignorant, who think that there's just one way to reality and that all the others are inappropriate, and the way of the wise, who admit that, based on our mental constitution or the different planes of existence where we are,duty and morality can vary. The main thing is always to know that you can find gradations of duty and of morality -- that the duty of one state of life,in one set of conditions, won't and cannot be that of another.

To illustrate: All great teachers have taught, "Resist maybe not evil," that non - weight may be the highest moral ideal. We all know that, if a certain amount of us attemptedto put that maxim fully in to practice, the entire social fabric would drop to pieces, the wicked would take possession of our lives and our qualities, and would do what they as with us. Even when only one time of such low - opposition were practised, it'd cause disaster. Yet, intuitively, inside our heart of hearts we feel the truth of the teaching "Resist not evil." This seems to us to be the best ideal; yet to instruct this doctrine only would be equivalent to condemning a vast percentage of humanity.

Not just so, it would be making men feel that they certainly were constantly doing wrong, and cause in them scruples of conscience in most their actions; it would weaken them, and that continuous self - disapproval would reproduce more vice than every other weakness would. To the person who has begun to hate himself the entrance to degeneration has already opened; and the exact same will additionally apply to a country.
