A Lack Of Understanding = Inability To Care
To care, we must first understand.
For understanding, we need to see clearly.
Seeing clearly is where goodness or moral compass comes from.
Seeing clearly is the presence of pure consciousness.
It’s not I see clearly;
that comes in the moment after just seeing,
before identification and judgement.
If we do not understand that goodness comes from clarity, then what we call ‘caring’ isn’t caring at all. We’re only caring about whatever we like and don’t like, so our caring is merely our bias, and has no true moral compass or clear direction. We are thus unable to break out of going round in circles.
In order to care, we need to understand cause and effect. Things do not just happen. In all walks of life, the world is being forced into homogenisation; it’s being uni-formed, when there are differences on a relative level. This predictably creates division and hostility, while one size does not fit all as we have different levels of understanding due to different experiences.
We cannot understand through academic study.
Understanding comes by the experience of looking at the mind,
seeing what is taking place there
and dropping all attachment.
Then we know how to proceed,
without going round in circles.
