 This page is a summary of my personal ethics. It helps me to write this down, so I can measure my actions against a norm I agree with. I'm not a scientist, philosopher, lawyer, or otherwise particularly educated on this subject, and I'm very open to suggestions to change my ethics. No perfection here.
-Being human is sometimes hard. The mind can go all the from complete despair to insane ecstasy and similar distances over other axes. States of mind are hard to put words to for me, but it seems apparent that there are some states of mind that are wholesome, and that make the occupying consciousness, me feel pretty good about itself and the world around. Buddhists describe a state of mind as 'enlightened' which is an illusive and hard to define concept. My perception of this state of mind is to be balanced physically, emotionally, rationally, and mentally. This follows directly from [[self_improvement|trying buddhist practice]]. To be healthy, happy, at peace and loved–hat seems like a pretty great idea. But being like that is impossible in a world where other beings are suffering unnecessarily.

 The basis for my personal ethics lies also in a strong sense of justice, that is similar to [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Categorical_imperative|Kant's categoric imperative]]
