Responding from a Wise Heart-Mind
Shortly after thousands of Hindus and Muslims had butchered each other in India, Gandhi advised his nation to behave like the ONE family that they were. To Hindus he said, if your child was killed by a Muslim, adopt a Muslim child and raise the child as a Muslim. To Muslims he said, if your child was killed by a Hindu, adopt a Hindu child and raise the child as a Hindu.
“I want to change their minds, not kill them for weaknesses we all possess.” Gandhi
We KNOW that this is the quality of heart-mind required to tame our reactive, "eye-for-an-eye ..." reptilian nature, embody our Homo sapiens sapiens nature, to make the earth a home fit to live in for our children and children's children. Only by embodying this evolved quality of heart-mind are we being authentic - true to who we are.
