We Need To Develop A Sense Of

We Must Realize That Violence Is Not Confined To Physical Violence. Fear Is Violence, Caste Discrimination Is Violence, Exploitation Of Others, However Subtle, Is Violence, Segregation Is Violence, Thinking Ill Of Others And Condemning Others Are Violence. In Order To Reduce Individual Acts Of Physical Violence, We Must Work To Eliminate Violence At All Levels, Mental, Verbal, Personal, And Social, Including Violence To Animals, Plants, And All Other Forms Of Life.

We Are Dependent On Each Other. Therefore, Replenishing The Soil, Replenishing Society And Being Part Of One Continuum - That's The New Story.

If We Had Adhered To The Concept Of Connectedness, Then We Would Not Have Created Nuclear Weapons, Huge Armies And Global Warming.

Wars And Conflicts Begin In The Mind, Then They Are Expressed In Words And Then Executed Through Physical Action, So Personal Transformation Is Intricately Connected With The Social And Political Transformation.

Nature Is Out There, And We Can Do What We Like To It. We Can Cut Down The Rain Forest. We Can Put Animals In Factory Farms And Slaughter Them As We Like. We Can Over-fish The Oceans. We Can Pollute The Rivers. We Can Pollute The Water And Change Climate. We Are Somehow Superior To Nature. We Are Somehow Rulers Of Nature.
