Personally, I think we spend far too much time examining the forests without ever seeing the trees. It is kinda herd mentality...one of which we are accustomed and eventually moulded to see in order to decipher and arrive at meanings and perceptions. I decided some time ago to begin phasing that out of my life. Life is never generalization..
Sometime in course of my life - I am not sure when - I decided not to listen to anyone talking about generalizations...
We create forests all the time, without ever examining the trees in that forest. We create forests of nationality, language, and skin pigmentation...of regions, language, creeds and geography. We create forests of Hindus, Muslims and atheists. We create forests of us and them. I guess Buddha and Nanak might be turning in their graves
Nice way to present your views. I admire the thought of listening people without generalizing, will try to adopt it.
