Three Wise Monkeys



From Google Guru
People say that there is no such thing as evil and everything is good in itself. If this is true then everything is in peace.

There are these three basic commandments for our spiritual progress and wisdom called the three wise monkeys; "See no Evil, Hear no Evil, Speak no Evil." 

The question is what can we look at now? The trouble of turning blind eyes to others’ misconduct is not the true sign of good conduct I guess. Its like "ignoring" it. It moreover tells one to "refrain" from looking at things that may cause sin to somebody and not caring what the hell others do.
I think this is the time to see more, hear more, and speak more. It isn't what we 'absorb', but what we 'produce from ourselves' that pollutes our souls. By not seeing, not hearing, not speaking evil,.. then nothing of the same Evil shall be generated from us. We must restrain from watching dirty movies, uttering dirty words, or any undesired activities.

Evil has many interpretations. The baseline of all is to protect us/our souls from ourselves. Life is how you see it, I think. If you want it to be happy and beautiful, you must see the beauty in everything you experience. You read beautiful books so that you have a beautiful mind. Just like the laughing Buddha, three wise monkeys are feng shui to better living.

Eddie Murphy said it best in Brooklyn Vampire, “If there was no evil you would never know what good is, right? So evil is GOOD.”
