Great worx; also: first, experiential knowledge is the source of all knowledge, as feelings are the root of all thought; and the source of all emotional strength. To struggle against corruption, Gandhi is best: "the root of all oppression lies in (supposed) science"; "nothing is better than abhaya, fearlessness in the struggle against the 7 corruptions; it is also most important for an individual and a country" (to paraphrase); "be the change you wish to see in the world"; just to jot a few. I would add a few of my own: if it ain't fixed, don't break it; more is less; if you don't stand for something, you've already fallen for everything. A few twigs of the poetree also elucidate:
Injustices/
Addressing, not addressing them
Have costs, former is individual,
The latter is global, as well.
Responsibility/
If you don't exercise it,
It's Siamese twin sister, freedom,
Will wither, like an unexercised muscle, as well.
Sadly, because of self-possession,
we need to exorcise it before it's exercised.
Sacrifices?/
It's not the self-sacrificed
When we do what needs to be done,
Rather the false-ego sacrificed
At Thee's altar within.
ends or means?/
Neither do I embrace.
Rather, the struggle well run
Which uplifts us uncrowned,
Every moment humans race.
Manners/
In which doings and not doings
Are done or aren't,
Brings life and light to them,
Or it doesn't.
YOU CAN/
Talk the talk, walk the walk, and even
Be the be, but, if you don't vote the vote,
You won't ever be livin' in a democracy.
Eden?/
Splitting of atom,
Cloning of Adam, hubris;
Leads to extinction.
Thanx for all you do; copy, share as you will :) reality
