Righteous. This word has been married with “self” so often
that if someone is seemingly righteous it has a negative connotation, in much the same way meek does,
which could not be further from the truth. Since placing our feet on the
path, wholeheartedly committed to Living on the Spiritual Basis; to
become a righteous person means we are not only living by right conduct
but embracing right thinking. Right thinking, now there is a loaded
term. Right thinking; spiritually, means keeping an open mind, remaining
teachable, refusing to accept negative thoughts or conditions as God‘s
will, to truly practice patience, tolerance, kindliness and love in
every area of life. Now, do not misunderstand, to be righteous does not mean
we become servile or scraping, on the contrary. Our lives, the true
demonstration of the path, will naturally attract inquiry from those
seeking a better way of living but we must steer clear of argument and
debate with those just seeking confrontation, thus avoiding the trap of being
labeled: self-righteous. We do stand firmly tough for our beliefs and will
witness to them whenever or wherever it will serve any good.
To sum up: to be righteous means our conduct is right, that we are maintaining an open mind, are willing to learn and will honestly share our heartfelt beliefs whenever it will serve any good purpose.
So being righteous is a desired state of being, truly free of the concerns of self.
