we are all familiar with prejudice. It comes in many forms:nationalism, chauvinism, provincialism, racism. Mnay of us undoubtly cry out against these injustices. As long as there is prejucide, we are never able to fairly know one another. And yet, it is exactly a type of prejucice that also keeps us from knowing ourselves. If we think about it, we ourselves are the ones we most favorl we cater to all our bodily needs, our sensual indulgences, our intellectual curiosities, and our lustful ambitioins. When we are sick or disadavantaged,no one feels our pain more of wails more loudly. When we are satisfied, no one rejoices with greater satisfactionl When we are on the verge of death, no one clings with such vehemence.
As long as we are slaves to our apppetites, then we cannot have the attention for spiritualityl As long as we value comfort over effort, then we whall never have the frotitude for a spiritual quest. As long as we insist that we are separate, individuals entities apart from the rest of the universe, then we shall never realize oneness.






Nationalities are just to make people distinct and it should not be used as a tool for exercising prejudice. I agree with what you said!

wow that is a mouthful, I believe selflessness is a goal that is to aim for and strive to reach, Just because we may never reach that point does not mean that we should not reach out for it. z
