Cultivating A Close, Warmhearted Feeling For Others

There Is Nothing I Can't Live Without. I Learned This Attitude When I Was A Child.

A Mind Wishing To Benefit Other People And Other Sentient Beings Is The Very Basis Of Peace And Happiness.

My Earnest Request Is That You Practice Love And Kindness Whether You Believe In A Religion Or Not

In Olden Times When There Was A War, It Was A Human-to-human Confrontation. The Victor In Battle Would Directly See The Blood And Suffering Of The Defeated Enemy. Nowadays, It Is Much More Terrifying Because A Person In An Office Can Push A Button And Kill Millions Of People And Never See The Human Tragedy That He Or She Has Created. The Mechanization Of War, The Mechanization Of Human Conflict, Poses An Increasing Threat To Peace.

The Problems We Face Today, Violent Conflicts, Destruction Of Nature, Poverty, Hunger, And So On, Are Human-created Problems Which Can Be Resolved Through Human Effort, Understanding And The Development Of A Sense Of Brotherhood And Sisterhood. We Need To Cultivate A Universal Responsibility For One Another And The Planet We Share.
