The world you experience is constructed by the mind with information from the senses, filtered through thoughts, memories, expectations, feelings… We cannot experience a world apart from the mind. When you look at the world around you, right now, you are actually looking at the activity of the mind itself. It’s a virtual reality, but the only reality you’ve ever known or ever will know.
If you are kind to yourself or kind to another, it all amounts to the mind being kind to itself. If you regard yourself or another with hate, it is a mind filling itself with hate.
Kindness is the only sane response.
