Most people don’t know a thing about dharma. Even if they do, they don’t understand it. Even if they do, they don’t live it.
So a natural question that occurs is that if others don’t follow dharma, then why should I?
Three key reasons:
1. It’s incorrect to conclude that others don’t follow dharma. We honestly have no clue what motivates others to do what they do.
2. There’s plenty of research now that shows that nice guys finish first, and not last. When we do good things, then people remember us for our generosity, empathy, integrity and righteousness – all great for long term success.
3. We must follow dharma for our own spiritual progress and spiritual peace.
