Do unto others as you wish them to do to you

The famous proverb was the golden rule that a monkey had in his life and applied it always.  He live on a tree in the banks of a river that had many fish. One day there was a flood. So the monkey thought , if there was a flood he would want someone to rescue him and with that though goes into the river to rescue fish. And the fish he rescued soon died. He applied the rule literally !!

There was another wise monkey in the next tree who was aware of the proverb, but also had the intellect that this rule cannot be literally & universally applied. We need to use our intellect before action.

Knowledge and Action need to be combined. As in the Gita it mentions that action with awareness and for the common good is Karamyoga.
