Violence is actually merely the result of all the "No's" and "Dont's" imposed over us by society. Violence is the outlet of frustration or anger which has accumulated over many years due to the lack of Love we experience in the world.
Whenever we follow our Heart we will get back a reflection of "yes, it is possible". I lies WITHIN. The moment we realize this we have anchored the inner Faith and we can always resort to it. Any "no" is not ours but comes from external negative manipulation of "not being enough".
"The only Truth lies within yourself".
So we better throw away what we think we are.
When we stop thinking we won't stop being, but we will stop being and identifying with our thought-made Self, assume the position of neutrally observing our thoughts instead of judging them and consequently judging ourselves...
And I also agree with finding out for ourselves instead of following somebody else's "Truth". When we follow somebody else's Truth there is always a higher chance of playing victim sooner or later since we "didn't want that in the first place". This is the source of blame...
Thanks for casting Light on Truth!
