#Emotional #Violence: 2017-12-20

• Emotional violence will never end physical violence.

• Responding to physical violence with emotional violence or vice versa makes you the perpetrator too.

• Emotional abuse is more clever and devious than physical violence; therefore, it often passes for concern.

• The problem will never become the solution; therefore, responding in kind with abuse or violence of any kind to abuse or violence of any kind is part of the problem, not the solution.

• The empirical basis for ethics is the principle of life.

• Starting with “life” as the first principle of ethics or absolute ideals, one can develop an ethical system that works for all human cultures.

• For example, what serves life is seen as the ethical and what is anti-life is seen as the unethical.

• The life principle has two supporting principles: the principles of light and love.

• For some, there will remain the philosophical dispute or problem as to the nature of the principle of life—is it life in this world or eternal life with God; but ethics finally has a foundation from which to develop.


#Future #Past: 2017-12-16

• The best future is in the past.

• The way to the future is to return to the past.

• A future that does not contain the past is not a future.

#Three #Stages: 2017-12-08

• First, we experience; second, we have an amplification or magnification of what we experience; third, we find our experience to be positive, neutral, or negative based upon our amplification of it.

• The problem is interrupting or short-circuiting this three-step process in any way or at any stage.

• Trying to change or control your natural responses for ones that you deem more correct is the most incorrect thing that you can do.

• Trying to detach from your experiences so that you are a numb witness-robot without feelings is foolishly called meditation but is suicide.
