Working through ethical problems together

Right-Living, as described by Japanese Samurai such as Musashi, Zen Philosopher Thich That Nan, and reflected in the tome of the I Jing, along with Christian theological writings, the essays of the Dali Lama, and many other ancient luminaries as well as our contemporaries, whom have written much and influenced all of our ideas and ideals about how to live, provide ethical guideposts to navigate by.

Having looked to these teachers, as well as the many suberb mentors with whom I have had the opportunity to work, and to serve under, over time, I have developed my own belief about what constitutes "Right-Living."

Stated briefly, I suppose Right Living is a way of viewing, understanding, assessing, deciding, and then acting with, and on behalf of others, so as to produce an outcome which is good. This means an outcome that you can live with, learn from, and quietly feel good about. It doesn't mean that it will produce the most money, or be recognized, or create any fame at all. Rather, it allows one to be comfortable with oneself in the wee hours of twilight, when all is new, and you have to face the day, and yourself.

If you have unsolved, irksome, day to day or extemporaneous ethical problems, or if you contemplate issues which you feel may be impacted by ethical decisions, I welcome your questions and comments. Perhaps we can reason together and form a better understanding of a path forward. We can all learn, and heal, and help each other out, even if we never get to agreement on anything.

Looking forward to your sincere input and opinion, whatever it might be.

Best, Brad
