Knowing the good and doing the good

13-10-12, 14:11

On one occasion, Duryodhana meets Lord Krishna. He knows that he has been doing wrong all his life. He also knows the divinity of Krishna. He breaks down and confesses - “Lord! It is not that I do not know Dharma (righteousness). I am very well aware of it. But Lord, in spite of knowing it, I am unable to practice it! I know not why and I know that I will not change. So please forgive me, let me be and you just go about your own ways.

Lesson: knowing the good does not translate into doing the good.
