Don’t offend or defend, just befriend!

All over the world, the military forces of all the countries are called defensive armies.

Then who is offending? Every country claims that its army is an army for defending itself. Then who is offending?

We then call our God to our defense. Whoever has got a bigger army or more powerful arsenal, his God become mightier.

With this approach we all lose. Understand clearly, no one’s God is better or greater; all Gods are the same. All truths are the same. When we differentiate between my God and your God, we are offending Divinity. Existence becomes our enemy!

Imagine if the sun were to disappear one day; do you think you could be alive without the rays of the sun? If the air were to disappear, can you survive? If you are dependent for your very survival on the sun which is billions of miles away from you, how can your boundary end where the physical boundary of your body ends? Or where your tribe, or Country ends?

Please be very clear: you are deeply related to Existence; one Existence; one God.

Studies on cells in organisms establish that each cell can only act in one of two ways at any given time. It can either focus on growth or it can focus on self-protection. It cannot do both simultaneously.

A cell placed in a dish moves spontaneously towards a nutrient if it is placed on another part of the same dish. If instead of the nutrient a toxin is placed in the dish, the cell will move away from the toxin. If both the nutrient and the toxin are placed at the same time in the dish, the cell is in a dilemma.

When the mind body detects a threat, either external or internal, a series of actions are initiated to divert the energy flow from growth centers to the limbs for protection. As long as the threat remains, growth is sacrificed in favor of protection. The mind body either fights or it flees the threat. When this happens repeatedly, your body destroys itself.

Please be very clear: If you live with the attitude of enmity, even when you live, you will be dying. When you live with the attitude of enmity with the whole, constantly, you will be tortured. When you live with the feeling of friendliness, with the attitude that Existence is your friend, and all who coexist with you are your own, naturally, you will feel a deep sense of happiness.
