VALUES & PRINCIPLES

Values and Principles are like comparing apples and oranges. Two different things. Value is understanding based on your measuring scale. Understanding could be wrong or incomplete. Value is based on your measuring scale. (It is a subjective experience). On the other hand, principle is reason you believe it based on -Aka Science or Wisdom. Value can be positive or negative depending on whether or not they are based on principle. Everybody has value, even criminal gangs have their value.

Guru Dronacharya (The world greatest teacher next to Parasurama) summoned Yudhishtira to find him a bad person in Hastinapur where as Duryodhana was asked to find a good person in Hastinapur.

Yudhishtira could not find even a single bad man ; Duryodhana could not find a single good man in Hastinapur

For Yudhishtira all people in Hastinapur seemed to be good while for Duryodhana all people seemed to be bad.

Guru Dronacharya said, their opinions about Hastinapur said nothing about Hastinapur but about the measuring scale (value) they subscribed to.

The Measuring Scale ( value) of Yudhishtira was not capable to find a bad person while measuring scale of Duryodhana was not capable to find a good person. Both have different values /different measuring scale.

Guru Dronacharya said one cannot perceive Actual Reality directly. We can only  perceive it indirectly. The reality we perceive is only subjective. . Actual reality is hidden. Only if one knows the principle, they  can understand /comprehend the actual objective reality. ( Quantum dynamics)

EXAMPLE 1

Value = Sun Rises in the East ( It is your perception, subjective experience ,not an Actual Reality . Real truth/Actual Reality is hidden on a Principle. You should know this Principle to comprehend the Actual reality)

Principle = It is because of earth’s rotation around its axis every 24 hours gives us an illusion that Sun moves and rises in East.

EXAMPLE 2

Value = Creativity (your creativity-if any.)

Principle = Google test creativity of a site manually and don’t approve AdSense if you are not ( Google principle for approvals on creativity )

EXAMPLE 3

Lord Krishna asked Duryodhana that he either select HIM -unarmed Krishna on his side OR all of Krishna’s powerful Army.

Value = Duryodhana said he want Krishna’s Powerful army. Duryodhana ‘s value/measuring scale was that Krishna is useless without his strong army

Principle= Krishna’s body itself is Army and his body has all the Devas on it because he is Supreme Being. Arjuna’s value was based on Krishna. He knows Krishna is everything, so he wanted only His Presence (unarmed )and his valued principle led to victory.
