Living in modern society, what is correct action?

There is no correct action under pressure.

How do you approach such an enormous, complex question of what is correct action?

The word 'action' means doing, acting in the present, not in the future.

Our action is according to a principle, to an ideal, or to some standardised memory.

If action is not true, correct, accurate, there is unhappiness, regret, a constant battle going on.

Can action born of thought ever be correct?

Is it possible to be free of the past, and act?

Is it possible to perceive action as a whole?

Is there such action which is never contradictory, that is complete all the time?
