[vid] Avalokiteshvara: the suffering of so many ...

[ThatZenGuy]

im curious, do u believe that we live in a just universe. do u believe that life on this planet is just. i dont i see absolutely no justice on this planet at all. an elite few rule at the expense and the exploitation of the many and god permits this to occur. that's the reality that i perceive and i find it incredibly frustrating to say the least. look at people like pol pot a mass murderer who lived into his 70's look at all the evil around this planet where people have no rights, north korea , burma, america lol. look at the people who died because of bush and cheney and yet bush gets 100,000 a speech. there is no justice on this plane as i see it and this reality is ruled by evil and evil and greed are blessed on this planet. so god or whatever u want to call it permits these injustices to occur and for evil to rule this plane. that is the conclusion that i come to.

Hi Norral,

I see where you are going. No, at face value you can never say any of the things that you mentioned are just or fair. If you look beyond the good and bad of this world. You will see that God the highest and the creative source is beyond good and evil. Beyond positive and negative, the creator loves all and all has free will. Either it to destroy and be selfish or to love and selflessly serve and create.

We live in a world that has both positive and negative, love and hate, creation and destruction so we can see both sides of the coin. So we can make a choice of how we want to live in this world. The outer world is a reflection of our own internal level of consciousness.

We can't change the world around us by trying to change others or making others do things that are beyond their free will. We can only change ourselves, be loving, be selfless, be compassionate to ourselves and to others. Only in this way can we ever change the world. You create the world you want to live in, and that creation starts with your own self. No matter how much destruction, hate and selfishness I see around me, I vow not to do the same.
