So Then Our Mind, Our Brain, Through Education And Also Difference Of Experiences, That Eventually, These Basic Values Or What Are Called Dominant, Not Have The Catching Up Our Intelligence, Experience Growth, That Also Should Grow. Then Our Life Become More Human.

If You Have Only Education And Knowledge And A Lack Of The Other Side, Then You May Not Be A Happy Person, But A Person Of Mental Unrest, Of Frustration. Not Only That, But If You Combine These Two, Your Whole Life Will Be A Constructive And Happy Life. And Certainly You Can Make Immense Benefit For Society And The Betterment Of Humanity.

The Antidote To Hatred In The Heart, The Source Of Violence, Is Tolerance. Tolerance Is An Important Virtue Of Bodhisattvas [enlightened Heroes And Heroines] - It Enables You To Refrain From Reacting Angrily To The Harm Inflicted On You By Others. You Could Call This Practice "inner Disarmament," In That A Well-developed Tolerance Makes You Free From The Compulsion To Counterattack. For The Same Reason, We Also Call Tolerance The "best Armor," Since It Protects You From Being Conquered By Hatred Itself.
