Gandhi on Virtues
Many have talked or written about how they have based their life or work on the virtues. Mahatma Gandhi is one of the greatest examples. He emphasized the following; “A person cannot do right in one department whilst attempting to do wrong in another department. Life is one indivisible whole. ” This illustrates how all your thoughts, words and actions create your reality, and the importance of being mindful to bring positive values, attitudes and actions into your life, job, company, relationships, community and society.
Gandhi wrote seven points of how to approach the 7 deadly sins. It reflects upon how to apply the virtues to avoid the pitfalls of those sins. Many have written about them and the link shares one of them.
