Christian Theological Dictionary on Righteousness
A
Christian theological definition of Righteousness according to CARM - The Christian
Apologetics & Research Ministry:
" Righteousness Righteousness is an attribute of moral purity belonging to God alone (John 17:25 ). It is He alone who is truly righteous. No one in the world is righteous in the eyes of the Lord, that is, except the Christian. We are counted righteous in the eyes of God when we receive Jesus by faith (Phil. 3:9). Our righteousness is based on what Jesus did on the cross. The righteousness that was Christ's is counted to us. We, then, are seen as righteous in the eyes of God. Though we are actually worthy of damnation, we are made righteous (Isaiah 61:10) by Jesus' sacrifice on the cross. As a result, we will spend eternity in the presence of the holy, pure, loving, kind, gentle, and righteous God who is our righteousness. "

| | |  Righteousness: Touch Base with God Through Atma Vidya
Sri Sathya Sai Baba is among those realised souls whose wisdom cuts across all barriers of race and religion, aimed only at restoring dharma and establishing the unity of faiths and peoples under the common banner of universal love and brotherhood. However, to widen spirituality's reach beyond retreats and rosaries, it has to be made to touch all of life and divinise every activity. For this, the quest for atma vidya or self-knowledge is essential in a human being, for it awakens him to his inherent divinity and also promotes reverence and respect for all creation.

the Path
The wheel was, without doubt, a great
technological breakthrough. It made quick motion possible. And when the wheel
was integrated with the domesticated horse, it redefined mobility and did
wonders for tactics and strategy of warfare. It also gave the charioteer a
commanding view of life. Nagasena used the chariot as a metaphor to
explain profound truths:

Christian Theological Dictionary on Impute Imputation
A
Christian theological definition of Impute Imputation according to CARM - The Christian
Apologetics & Research Ministry:
" Impute, Imputation "To reckon to someone the blessing, curse, debt, etc. of another. Adam's sin is imputed to all people (Rom. 5:12-21), therefore, we are all guilty before God. Our sins were put upon, imputed, to Jesus on the cross where He became sin on our behalf (2 Cor. 5:21) and died with them (Isaiah 53:4-6). Therefore, our sins are forgiven. Understanding imputation is very important. Imputation is the means of our salvation. Our sins were put upon, imputed, to Jesus on the cross. Our sins were "given" to Jesus. When He died on the cross, our sins, in a sense, died with Him. The righteousness that was His through His perfect obedience to the Father in His complete obedience to the Law is imputed, given, to us. In short, our sins were given to Jesus. His righteousness was given to us. Technically speaking our sins were imputed to Jesus. His righteousness was imputed to us." "

| | |  Righteousness: Dharma, Artha, Karma and Moksha - The
PurusharthasPurusharthas,
Dharma, Artha, Karma and Moksha
Purusha means human being
and artha means object or objective. Purusharthas means objectives of man.
According to Hindu way of life, a man should strive to achieve four chief
objectives (Purusharthas) in his life. They are:
1. dharma
(righteousness),
2. artha
(material wealth),
3. kama
(desire) and
4. moksha
(salvation).
Every individual in a society is expected to achieve these four
objectives and seek fulfillment in his life before departing from here. The
concept of Purusharthas clearly establishes the fact that Hinduism does not
advocate a life of self negation and hardship, but a life of balance,
achievement and fulfillment.

is Achara or good conduct. Achara is the mark of
the good. From Achara is Dharma born. Dharma enhances life. Man attains
prosperity and fame, here and hereafter, through the practice of Dharma.
Good conduct is
the highest Dharma. It is the root of all Tapas or austerities. Righteousness,
truth and good works, power and prosperity - all originate from conduct.

| | |  Righteousness: Your Creator can be Your Best Friend
Two men went into a mango garden. One man started counting the mango trees and the number of fruit each bore and approximate value of the orchard. The other man went straight to the owner and making his acquaintance was invited by him to pluck and taste the fruit. One was busy in counting and calculating, the other was enjoying the delicious fruit. Ramakrishna Paramhansa would cite this example to show the difference between the man of dry academics and the man of devotion.
