[1] Even if veganism might seem
secondary to some humans,
it is always primary to all animals.
[2] No one points a knife at humans
to force anyone to go vegan,
while countless animals face knives,
that force them to be meat for humans.
[3] It is unkind to insist that
‘Pure Land is only here and now’,
when this cannot be experienced
by all of us non-Buddhas
in the midst of disasters now.
It is unwise to insist that
‘Pure Land is only here and now’,
when a Buddha’s perfect Pure Land
is to be experienced by all of us
elsewhere and later.
[4] Just as you would like others
to speak up for you,
should you become voiceless,
you should speak up for others
who are already voiceless.
[5] Those who wish others ill fail to realise
that this does not really make others ill,
while it does make themselves instantly feel ill.
[6] If we continue not valuing truths
and those who share truths with us,
truths will continue vanishing from our lives,
by being concealed, corrupted and forgotten.
[7] The deluded see the
morally ambiguous as ‘confusing’,
thinks truth to be ‘subjective’,
and decide not to take sides,
as it does ‘not’ matter to them.
The wise see the
morally ambiguous as complex,
seeks truth that is objective,
and decide to take a side,
as it does matter to many.
[8] What not anti-Dharma
in all aspects of life
is already aligned with Dharma [truth].
What is anti-Dharma
in all aspects of life
should be aligned with Dharma.
[9] Even though the Buddha
was no worldly politician,
he managed politicians
by advising even kings to
manage with the Dharma.
[10] To be apolitical in this world
is still to be deludedly political,
if one clings to possibly false views,
refuses to pay attention to the truth,
and continues to make ill choices
that affect the masses accordingly.
