God-centered business takes care of high spiritual principles...( Part II )

S.: OK, then the next question is can Business function in Mode of goodness without Spirituality?

G.G.P.: The modes of ignorance, passion and goodness interchange. This world is the place of constant change; panta rei. The atmosphere governed by these three principle qualities of the world is like a river, never the same.

Regular contact with spiritual reality ( pure goodness ) brings functioning in goodness. Adjusting to the level of activities in goodness and constant practice also bring goodness. Just like when plane flies from destination A to destination B, it is mostly out of the route. Still, the plane gets to the desirable destination by adjusting it to the course constantly.

That's why one of the definitions of advancement says:“Progress is series of adjustments in right direction“. In order to be in goodness one has to practice acts in goodness and regularly visit spiritual reality through chosen spiritual practice. Without spirituality, business is sentenced to modes of passion and ignorance which lead to degradation of values and principles in society. In such society exploitation and violence is common thing. There is no goodness when such atmosphere prevails.

Goodness is characterized in this simple way:

Be – do – have

What I do springs from what I am (qualities and character) and results in what I have.

Passion has different order:

Do – have - be

What I have comes from what I do and then I can be in certain way.

Ignorance is like this:

Have – do – be

I need to have something first in order to act in certain way and become a person of certain qualities.

Business is, in this regard ,more in passion then in goodness. Goodness is still needed in business to keep it focused on high values of conduct.
