THEORIES OF ACTION .

** '' L eave all the Religion , schools of thought , duties and surrender to ME , I will guide you to actions that are right and proper '' Lord Krishna in Gita ; the theory of DEVOTION / BHAKTI also supported by Tulasidas in Ram Charit Manas ; accepted by by Yoga as an alternative .
** '' All the activities are going on as the different elements of the Nature are acting and reacting among themselves and we are the part of that great happening . let happen what happen , what happens and be a part of that acting yourself as the circumstances suggest . be STHITIPRGYA / STABLE IN MIND . keep even in pain and pleasure ; good and bad . Lord Krishna in Gita .
** '' It is not possible to be without action so the best alternative is to do all action for ME and then you can not go wrong and commit mistake .( no one can steal for God or betray his friend or be unfaithful to his/her wife and husband ) although very easy to understand but tough to act . - Lord Krishna in Gita .
** '' all this world / universe /creation is full- well pervaded by GOD enjoy your share but do not covet / envy for that others have '' Ishaavashyopanishad (vedant )
** '' when i do good , i feel good ; when i do bad , i feel bad ; this is my theory of action ; this is my Religion . - Abraham Lincoln .
** '' All actions that advance us to service of human being for development and progress to realize the Truth / God . the Man is always treated as End and never as means . the virtuous man with God Truth and Ahimsa (nonviolence ) is the real and perfect man . '' - MK Gandhi .
** All actions that are full of reason - Socrates
**All actions that spread love and humility .
** All actions that spread brotherhood and goodness . -- Mohammad
** All actions of kindness and purification of self and all . - Lord Bauddha
** All actions that do not harm others ।(Ahimsa ) -Mahavir .
** '' Act as your principle of action might safely be made a law of the whole world . ( Law of Universal Law ) . Always recognize that all individuals are Ends and do not use them as your means (Please see MK Gandhi ) . By a lie , a man annihilates his dignity as a Man .A man cruel to animals is Cruel , he can not be kind to any one else (man).Actions and their Results are not two but one . action per se is reward : action as such is reward : action in and of itself is reward :action intrinsically is reward . we speak the truth because we should . In law a man is guilty when he violates the rights of others. In ethics he is guilty if he only thinks of doing so. '' --Immanual Kant

'' It is my firm conviction that all good action is bound to bear fruit in the end.

It is none of our business, however, to think of the result of our actions. We have simply to assure ourselves that our motive is pure and that the action itself is good and leave the rest to God. There are some things which a man does by word of mouth, some by observing silence and yet others by action. If all that he does is in-formed with knowledge, it is action indeed.What the world needs is not words, but action. Actions and thoughts tell far more than speech. In the Divine account books only our actions are noted, not what we have read or what we have spoken. ''

-- M.K. Gandhi
