We live in a Symphonic, Sacred Universe. Asian religions emphasize compassion and that there are consequences for our actions. Jesus also teaches us that what we sow is what we are going to reap.
The ahimsa doctrine of Hinduism and Jainism note that doing no harm or non-violence should extend to other creatures besides the human. Martin Luther King, Jr. asserted that if we all practiced, "an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth," that we would all end up blind and toothless.
What really attracts us deeply? Truth, Beauty and Goodness/Love! We never give or receive enough. We live in an earthly paradise but some of our activity is interfering its life giving systems. We need to cooperate with the Earth Community for the welfare, not only, of the human children, but also, the " plant children", the "bird children", etc.
We want to leave our children the same graced Earth that we inherited. What steps can we take now to assure this: educationally, economically, politically, etc.?
