I had this thought, that if I try to be good in this moment, there is a possibility that I am good. But if I tell you how to be good, I am most certainly not doing something good. Goodness, is something which is alive.

Rules and doctrines are quite dead and unalive. And that is why many religions fail to inspire a better world. It has to come from the heart, moment to moment. No one can tell you what good is, because it is always different and new.

Telling someone else how to be good? That’s ego, control, projection. The opposite of what goodness is. Because true goodness cannot be imposed. It is a living thing.

And you are that.
