Follow/Fav Do Unto Others. By: Lady Salazar. James made a mistake. In the wake of Voldemort's resurrection, the consequences catch up to Harry,. Others, not quite so much of the fringe element, have suggested that the golden rule might at least be improved: 'Do unto others as they would have you do unto them.' Such a view, however, is fatally flawed, and even someone who is as ethically confused as Joseph Fletcher (the famed situation ethicist) has acknowledged such (1962, 117).

Relationships Zone #9 – Public service, 'doing unto others!' Meditation in action!
Successful business leaders are often know for their tough exteriors. Meditation and spirituality aren't highlighted in their job description. Yes, it is okay to attend Sunday church services, even serve meals in a skid row soup kitchen on Thanksgiving. But when you're negotiating a merger, closing a big sale, appeasing disgruntled investors or disciplining a key employee, you better be focused, disciplined and tough. Let your guard down and the sharks will eat you alive.
Public Service is a Natural Meditation-In-Action!
Executives often show their softer side in other ways, especially such as public service, through volunteer work in charities and civic organizations. They balance toughness, compassion and service for the greater good, and often find that it's good for business too.
One example was reported in Fortune magazine, in an article about Hank Paulson, CEO of Goldman Sachs, a $45 billion Wall Street investment banking powerhouse with 20,000 employees worldwide. Having worked for his arch-rival, Morgan Stanley, I was especially intrigued by Paulson's ability to balance business and public service.
Hank Paulson has been described as an avid nature lover. He has been a member of The Nature Conservancy for decades and was the organization's board chairman and co-chair of its Asia-Pacific Council.
Paulson is not only a tough executive – 'carved features without a hint of softness … a really, really ruthless competitor' – he has 'another equally intense existence, as a lover of wildlife and protector of the environment.' He also serves as co-chair of the $3.3 billion Nature Conservancy, the world's largest nonprofit environmental organization.
As a young man Paulson wanted to become a forest ranger. Today he's living that dream. His travels take him and his supporters in the Conservancy to Indonesia's rain forests, China's mountain reserves, the coral reefs of Palau in the Western Pacific, and other endangered areas of Asia.
Paulson says: 'It isn't like I'm trying to do good, this is really fun for me.' And yet the guy is doing a lot of good, driven by a deep conviction that saving the environment is a 'race against time, the ultimate global issue.' Meditation? Yes, a life filled with such intense focus and passion at work and in public service is a perfect meditation.

Making a Difference in the World
Tex Gunning, president of Unilever Bestfoods Asia is another example. Gunning is an economist by training according to an article in 'What is Enlightenment?' magazine. Early in his career he became a 'restructuring' expert – a corporate hatchet man. But in midlife, he decided he no longer wanted to 'keep sacking and keep restructuring and keep cutting costs.'
Tex Gunning – 'Great leaders – and great companies – not only take care of these stakeholders but also want to change the world.'
Gunning had an epiphany: 'I didn't want to live a life creating an illusion of meaningfulness while deep in my heart I knew that every five seconds there is a child dying.' He decided he would 'make a difference in the lives of unbelievably poor children in Asia. Their suffering is just unimaginable. I said to myself, I have no choice' Unilever backed him and since then he's started profitable food businesses in fifteen countries.
This is meditation in action, different and perhaps more effective than retreating into a monastery.
