“That person,” “This Person” — Thus, all that is known in this world, if contemplated, is the being of the one primordial self; what each performs for the happiness of the self should be conducive to the happiness of another.
The legend is such that even now in Japan when a good friend dies someone breaks a musical instrument. Whether that is important or not, the essence of the story is very beautiful. We want to share happiness with those whom we love. The one we love most is our own Self. If we truly known our own Self, it is not confined to our body, it permeates all beings. Our life should be a consecrated life, dedicated to the happiness of all. That’s why the Upanishads says that a wise person is healthy or not, all day or night, whatever they do is motivated to make life a little brighter for others, to bring a little more light on things which are concealed, to make a little more harmony where there is chaos and disorder. This is the Indian fundamentals of social ethics of the Upanishads, which is based on Self-realization. Realization and doing good are not two separate things, they are one and the same.
