I would say that compassion toward all beings is, of course, wonderful and a manifestation of man's Divine nature. My point in making this thread is to intimate to readers here that there is a very large and profound process taking place that affects not only our world, but far beyond it, and that there is an intelligence to it, a reason for it--a method amidst the (perhaps apparent) chaos. In the face of uncertainty and in the face of tribulations, we can look to our own original, selfless and compassionate nature, have faith in the truly Divine and find real guidance. From a spiritual perspective, I am suggesting that this is the fundamental meaning behind what is now unfolding. I am not disagreeing with you. Have we not found compassion to be unconditional and omni-directional? Didn't Jesus say we should even love our enemy?

this love and forgiveness stuff isn't just some ideal we should strive for. it is absolutely necessary if you're going to co-exist with others telepathically. there can not possibly be any secrets. you can't be an ideal. you can only be what you really are.

telepathy is like being naked in public. it is uncomfortable because everything is shared. you have no privacy really. the only option is to be humble and love and forgive. because everybody else is naked.
