What scares us the most, even so far as to radically alter our morals to defend our fear, is looking around and realising we do not run the world.
Life has moved on, and our beliefs no longer mix with reality, but instead make strange those acts which make us human – our capacity to sacrifice ourselves to, and for, an idea, the ideal that all life is sacred, and only the nature of human shall be the killer.
Only then, un-blinded by ignorance, will we let the brilliance of our minds shine through, and attain enlightenment.
For, as long as we hold our views true and sacred over what we feel and see, we will continue to live as less than animal, surrounded and confounded by this world of self-imposed distraction, confusion and pain.
