Predation

Many spiritual teachers have pointed out that when we harm others, we harm ourselves even more severely.

The hard-heartedness of the killer and exploiter is in itself a terrible punishment because it is a loss of sensitivity to the beauty and sacredness of life.

That loss may go unrecognized, but the life itself, armored, violent, and competitive, is lived as a struggle of separateness and underlying fear, and its relations with others are poisoned.

May all beings be free and at peace,  Will
