    Is Morality Selfish?

    Is morality selfish? Analogy: My values are better, noble, and virtuous while yours are just plain wrong.

    Infact all morals can be said to match that analogy.
    Life is a sadistic joke with no pun line.

    Mr. Hyde all you need is be more explicit. I can have a conjecture of what you have on mind and yet if you become more specific it will be easy to understand what you really want to say.

    “Those who seek to satisfy the mind of man by hampering it with ceremonies and music and affecting charity and devotion have lost their original nature””

    “If water derives lucidity from stillness, how much more the faculties of the mind! The mind of the sage, being in repose, becomes the mirror of the universe, the speculum of all creation.
