ief encourage the believers, or followers, or practitioners to be violent and hurtful against anything and anyone that they recognized as ‘intimidation’, ‘insult’, ‘belittling’, ‘offensiveness’, or ‘disrespectfulness’ towards their particular teachings and belief, then it doesn’t really serve any purpose of promoting and upholding universal peace and harmony and loving kindness in the world at all.
Everyone claim that their religion and culture is the religion and
culture of love, peace and kindness. How true is that, when there are
constant egoistic violent and hurtful actions and reactions towards what
they dislike, disagree with and don’t want.
Unfortunately, deep ignorance and egoism hinder the minds from reasoning and inquiring towards the truth of everything.
Such violent and hurtful actions and reactions also exist in those who think and believe that they are the practitioners of yoga or Buddhism. That is the power of ignorance.
Ignorance exists in all and everyone, unless someone starts to be aware of it and do something about it.
It's not the fault of any religion or culture or belief and practice, if
human beings are behaving ignorantly out of ignorance and egoism. But, it shows that whether human beings have a religion, culture, belief and practice, or not, or what type of religion, culture, belief and practice people have, it's not important at all. It's about whether human minds are free or not free from ignorance and egoism. That is a universal teaching that applies to all and everyone, regardless of all the different qualities of names and forms that everyone attaching onto and identifying with.
Inquire the truth of everything.
