The Motivation to Harm

The Flowers Of Guidance Volume One Abstain from Harming Others

An individual may contemplate harming others for personal gain, lust, and materialistic needs accompanied by indulgence and greed. To increase personal profits, he may steal from others. He is unaware that he will never obtain more than what destiny has planned for him. Even in such a case, the dominant force of patience can balance him and prevent him from stealing and harming others. The force of patience will stop his twisted imagination and motivation. The greater force of patience prevents cynical motivation, which in turn stops any loss or harm to others.

Therefore, humankind has a responsibility to use his power of thinking and understand the force of patience in order to stop any actions that could harm others.

Humankind’s responsibility is to be harmless in the society.
