RE: A true Spiritual warrior does not attack the bully, but instead helps strengthen the vulnerable and dependent!
What you are stated are to a great extent true, however looking at today's world, what should one do to save a situation where the bully is really coming hard on the person and probably his dependents?
Shine the light and show the world what is going on. I've even stood between an abusive husband and his family. Being a peace keeper is a dangerous job and requires training, experience, courage and wisdom. I don't attack the abuser, but I will confront them and call them on their behaviour. But I also recognize that most have deaf ears and will not see or hear what I speak of. There is no grater sacrifice than to lay down ones life to save another. I am prepared to die for what I believe. Are you?
You go beyond a peace keeper.. your preach and live that of a peace maker. Keepers do what needs to be done to solve an immediate threat and will be needed again and again. Makers resolve the issues, heal the abusers and abused, so no more peace keeping is needed.
Exactly!!!!!!! Well said!
That's wonderful, am humbled by your stand. May the peace which you preach be with you now and always.
I think I do a decent job explaining how we could construct a capitalistic society where that bully doesn't even feel the need to bully. I believe we can construct a society where, if an actor in society feels the need to cause destruction, we can medically, accurately, and truthfully, diagnose them perhaps as mentally deranged. And the consequence wouldn't be punishment, but rather nourishment. Care would have to be taken here to ensure this mechanism wasn't being abused, but it goes a lot in line with the Ghandi quote at the end of the article. At the very least what we could do is make that situation where you have to make those "what if" somewhat non obvious answers as rare or unlikely as possible.
Could you perhaps provide an example of what it would look like "[in] todays' world", "where the bully is really coming hard on the person and probably his dependents?"
