suggestions on ethics
the use of sensory enjoyments can only be understood by understanding tantra - progressive Vashnavism includes tantra. As such the four regulative principles are out of date and inappropriate. I recommend using the origonal pillars of THE TRUTH for ones ethics - not the four regulative principles. These are : Truthfulness, Austerity, Compassion and Cleanliness. Futher these principles need to be understood in the natural, spiritual, celestial sense and up. For eg. Truthfulness pertains to the aquistion of truth from the scripture, speaking the truth, and living by the Truth which means living by the Lords direction.Futher, a better ethical module is using the origonal 10 or 12 ethical standards from Sanatan Dharma - "Truth, non-violence, non-stealing, non-corruption, clenliness, contentment, reading of scriptures, austerity and prayers. Anyway, this is a deep topic but taking the lead of spiritual leaders such as Ken Wilber, we can see that injunctions based on ethical standards are more often than not, harmful and confusing, as opposed to improving societies needs.
