The Seven Blunders

 I'm Sharing another blog post from one of my favorite blogs..."Lists of Note" which I love to just go browsing through. I found that today this particular blog post made me think how very true this is, and how if only we were smart enough or cared enough, we might avoid these pitfalls.

In October of 1947, Mohandas Gandhi gave a piece of paper to his visiting grandson, Arun Gandhi, upon which was written the following list — a list he said contained "the seven blunders that human society commits, and that cause all the violence." The next day, Arun returned home to South Africa, never to see his grandfather again. Gandhi was assassinated three months later.

Note: The same list was originally published by Gandhi in his journal, Young India, in 1925. It was titled, "Seven Social Sins."

Wealth without work.

Pleasure without conscience.

Knowledge without character.

Commerce without morality.

Science without humanity.

Worship without sacrifice.

Politics without principles.
