2012 from Oh My Guru! meditating on Buddha

Going back to Buddha's words, he implies that hate is something that exists in itself apart from the human being, as if it is something that just exists and thus we must actively love to extinguish it. By accepting this premise, one then accepts that the system we live in is unchangeable and that we are not ultimately responsible for how it operates only that we must do our best to be loving people as individuals. But that never solves the problem. Because from that perspective we allow that hate is allowed to exist in the first place, and thus Life becomes some strange game of simply trying to balance the positives with negatives - which means obviously that we will accept the money system as it is - that it is ok for debt to exist and that we must simply do our best to pay back our debts.
