There are seven rules we must follow to avoid unethical behavior. These rules are reserved in the 13th century. Hz. Mevlana says that these rules are as follows;
- Be a river in generosity and help.
- Be like the sun as in tenderness and mercy.
- Be like the night in covering others flaws.
- Be dead in rage and frustration.
- Be like humility and humbleness.
- Be like the sea in tolerance.
- Either appear as you are or be as you look.
Be a river in generosity and help.
He says that we must be generous at all times and under all circumstances. Generosity is not just money stamps. To share everything you have. This would be a bread and a money would also be a smiling income. Our generosity must be continuous and continuous, while making generosity.
Be like the sun as in tenderness and mercy.
The sun is a source of infinite light and heat. Just as the sun warms our world every day and brings us to light, we must be compassionate and compassionate in humans, and we must embrace all humanity, animals with compassion and compassion. We should not raise our hands to those who say goodness, we must be compassionate to those who ask for mercy and be compassionate in any case.
Be like the night in covering others flaws.
Just as night does cover the evils and imperfections with darkness, we must cover the imperfections like the night, not to reveal them to others.
Be dead in rage and frustration.
Occasionally, some events, some unwanted behavior of people can cause anger in us. When we get angry, we can act violently against the people who caused the event. But this is wrong. No matter how angry we are or how angry we should be, we should not reflect this. Just as the dead can't do anything, we must be in anger, unresponsive to everything.
Be like humility and humbleness.
Arrogance is one of the worst behaviors that dehumanize human beings and distances them from their values. Once a person becomes arrogant, he loses his humanity in his own arrogance. But humility, humble people do not boast of their goodness, they do not expect a response. Just as the earth is feeding its belly, only water is feeding us, we must work to do better without waiting for any reciprocation, without waiting for any reciprocity like the earth in our favors.
Be like the sea in tolerance.
Just as the seas cover every part of the world, our tolerance should cover the whole world. People should see flaws, be understanding in the face of mistakes, should approach people with a smiling face.
Either appear as you are or be as you look.
There is no need to act in life, to take on different personalities, to take on different characters in different times and places, to avoid hypocrisy at all times and in any case, and to look like a human being. We should never take shelter under different masks.
