Give to each what they deserve - that alone is suitable for them ||Acharya Prashant, on Jesus Christ

Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.

~Matthew 7:6

Acharya Prashant (AP): Your path, cannot be somebody else’s path. No general method, nothing general at all, can ever be suitable to you. You are what you are because you are evolved, programmed, brought up, and conditioned in the way that you are. Each of us is located at a different point in existence. This point is a point, away, from our home, the center. And because the points are different, so our actions will also be different.

The right action, must necessarily, be different for different persons.

What is right for one, cannot be right for the other. The method that suits one, cannot suit the other.

To a dog, only that which is suitable to a dog is right and to a swine, only that which is suitable to a swine is right. Hence, the right action cannot be a set of principles. Hence, the whole premise of morality is hollow. Morality deals with prescriptions, with commandments, do this, do that.
