Action Without Desire Of Outcomes — by Vinoba Bhave

Post by Welles »

"To protect self-interest individuals exploit others, nations go to war, and businesses undercut each other, because people in those situations see a conflict between self-interest and the interest of others. But in reality there is no such conflict. Everyone's interests are intertwined. Peace, prosperity and happiness are in the interest of all. These are the universal gains, which are accomplished when personal gains are forgotten. When personal gains are pursued, universal gains are lost. If universal gains are lost where are the personal gains?

When performed with love, action becomes its own reward."

Thank you Welles. There's a whole new perspective on work (action) I've never considered before. I've been gifted with much of benefit to take in this week. :)
