00:00I got reminded of a quote that he was attributed to Franz Kafka, and it's him looking at a fish
00:09and saying something like, now I can look at you in peace because I don't eat you anymore.
00:16It is such a burden on our soul to realize that every day we're harming somebody else
00:25into that feeling. But that cannot happen if, for example, I support wars.
00:32See, how will I give up on violence only in one direction? I am someone who says,
00:41okay, I am a very kind person, very compassionate at heart, but I want that country to be attacked
00:49and obliterated. Right. Right. So when kindness comes, it comes from the center that relates
00:57to all objects. And when kindness comes, therefore it comes towards all objects. Compassion cannot
01:05be selective or exclusive. Right.
