You can stop hating

[mrdevious]

Last night during a meditation I found something within myself, something insidious and existent in everyone. I call it justification. It is a little part of your brain, working in the background, telling your consciousness why you are justified in your hate, your fear, your resentment, all your negativity. It tells you that you are justified in hating that person with the wrong idiology, it tells you why you must prove the other guy wrong in his philosophy, it tells you that your feelings and thoughts are justified, that those with other feelings and thoughts are an enemy of yours.

This is what makes you hate, this is what makes you feel consumed with the need to defeat that which you're sure is wrong, to convince others to think on your wavelength, and destroy those you will not. But just consider, for a moment, that the existence of god is not the most important thing, the nature of reality is not the most important thing, the philosophy you're absolutely certain is right is not the most important thing. The most important things are the results. The most important thing is to attain a world of unity (even in disagreement), of love, of peace. Kill that little area in your brain driving you separate, and categorize, your enemies from your allies. Stop allowing it to give council to your consciousness, and let compassion be the driving force from within. That little area in your brain is nothing but a primitive bi-product of the ego, a part that keeps you convinced reality ceases to exist beyond your perception, even if you know otherwise intellectually.

Who's right and who's wrong is irrelevant, how we can work together and teach each other, to the end ideal of peace, is the much higher goal.

Good job,

Fear and hate are two destructive emotions that weaken our immune system the most. There are actual internal body chemicals released that effect this.

It has been shown that interleukin therapy for cancer can cost $40,000 yet what stimulates a person to the point of intoxication produces thousands of dollars worth of interleukins.........A roller coaster ride at majic mountain, riding a horse, hiking or like you say, meditation.

Hatred is a deadly toxin to the immune system and fear is just as deadly.

There are six major factors that effect the immune system.

1. antibiotic overuse and misuse
2. Pollution and environmental toxins
3. stress and emotional state
4. genetic makeup
5. lifestyle
6. Nutritional status


The Chinese and East Indians have known for thousands of years the effects of negative emotions on the immune system.

When you hate others it can only be returned to you the same. The same holds true with other positive emotions. Its an energy dynamic. You can only get from the world what you give to the world.

Albert Einstien even embraced this concept of emotional energy dynamics.

Therefore we should always be careful what we wish on others. Wise men have said, "want better for others than we do ourselves".


Have a good one.

Agreed.

what youve said is a very beautiful thing.
to add, in theory:

if there were a man who believed that killing people was a natural part of his life because he has the ability to do it, and he believes that having the ability to do something means that you should demonstrate it, should you not argue with this man in an attempt to prove to him that there is something beyond his ignorant way of thinking? if not simply for him, then perhaps you should argue with this man in order to maybe save the life of his next victim?

i do think that there is something absolutely right in the world, and if i had the willpower i bet i would fight for it as much as possible.

basically what im getting at is that there is existance beyond the life of the individual. to accept that you arent permanent allows you, as an individual, to fight for the immortality of the human race.
