BEYOND OURSELVES

"All tremble at violence; all fear death. Putting oneself in the place of another, one should not kill nor cause another to kill."
—The Buddha, Dhammapada 129

We often see life through the lens of our own experiences, but the Buddha reminds us to widen our perspective. Every being, no matter how different from us, values life and fears harm. Recognizing this truth is the first step toward true compassion.

Non-violence extends beyond physical actions. A sharp word, an indifferent response, a self-centered choice—all of these can cause suffering. The more we cultivate awareness of how our actions affect others, the more we naturally lean toward kindness.

Today, take a moment to step outside your own viewpoint. Notice the struggles of those around you. Imagine yourself in their place. This simple shift can transform small moments into acts of profound empathy, creating ripples of kindness that extend far beyond the immediate.
