ETHICAL PRINCIPLES OF MOTHER THERESA:

ETHICAL PRINCIPLES OF MOTHER THERESA:

Ethical principles are defined in the dictionary as a set of principles leading to right judgment.  Using this definition, then Mother Teresa only had one overriding ethical principle and that is God:
 

The answer is not obvious to modern people as they did not understand Mother Theresa (as of 2013, she is Blessed Teresa of Calcutta, with another miracle, she will be St. Teresa of Calcutta) because they do not understand real Christianity. Blessed Theresa of Calcutta, a Catholic sister who entered the Sisters of Loretto in Ireland to become a teaching sister, was sent to India to teach. Later, moved with compassion, and the love of God, she received a "call" from God to help the poorest of the poor. The rest of her life was spent in "darkness" which I discuss below.

Mother Teresa helped others by loving God above all things, putting Him first in her life, and doing His Will no matter how painful it was for her, and it was very painful.

Mother spent most of her life in a dark night with no real feeling or personal knowledge of God. This is very common with the founders of religious orders, they are strong enough in their faith to make their way through life totally depend on Faith, Hope, and Charity: the three cardinal virtues bestowed on us in Baptism. 

She sacrificed herself completely for God, and was called a saint and a prophet for it.
Mother Theresa helped others the way we are all called to help others, by getting up in the morning, and taking some time to give to God first.

She spend an hour in Adoration before the Blessed Sacrament, went to Holy Mass, received Our Blessed Lord in the Eucharist, and went to confession frequently, and regularly. And, then, when she had done these things, she went out and lived her faith by seeing her God in every individual in front of her, especially the poor, the sick, the aged, and the abandoned.
 
She served God by serving Him in them - which is nothing more nor less than she lived the Gospel with every breath in her body
