So, what is this word 'good', what is it good for, just what is it connected with; is it temporary or lasting, who does it serve - who is it good for - or are we driving ourselves crazy with an impossible question?
Okay, so don't be 'good', be 'selfish'! But that is supposed to be good for you - no? So it seems we can't really get rid of that word so easily!
Good implies, first of all - not against anybody! The moment you are against anyone, for her or him or it you are bad, not good! If you feel ill will towards anyone, at one level or another they are aware of it and return the ill feeling. There is so much ill will around, both short and long term, that we become used to that atmosphere and are unable, for the most part, to distinguish its source.
A really selfish person, intelligent and conscious, will never risk any attitude other than sincere good will towards any man, situation or living reality.
