&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;When we are able to look beyond the pain and grief of the tragedy at Utoya, to take a transcendental spiritual view, we see that all those at the island had some common motivation and inspiration.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;They were there, in their compassionate lovingness, because they had the desire to improve Norway, improve the world. To use part or all of their life to make it a better place, create a greater sense of brotherhood and sisterhood, and felt that politics was a pathway to achieve this desire. They wanted to show us the value of every human being for that is what a desire to make the world better means.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;When we look at the reactions in Norway and the world in these last 6 days, &lt;strong&gt;who amongst us is not left with the deep sense that they have changed Norway and the world?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;As Ghandi, Mandella and many more have done with their lives.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;As Islam Kardekov did in Beslan.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;As Christ did.As the Buddha did. As Mohammed did.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;You would know the secret of death. But how shall you find it unless you seek it in the heart of life?&amp;quot; Kahlil Gibran&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;We do not know their soul's agenda.

Up to that point Haddad had had many Muslim friends.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;Suddenly I changed my attitude. I didn't feel any more Iraqi. I felt I'm a Jew and I vowed that I wanted to kill an Arab,&amp;quot; he says.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;One day, swimming in the River Tigris, he encountered a drowning man, and instinctively helped him to the shore.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;When I came home I was shook up. Not because I saved the guy but because I didn't follow my vow to kill an Arab. And when I went to see the rabbi, he said, &lt;font color="#0000ff" size="4"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;'You can't make a vow to kill. You can only make a vow to help.'&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;That's what stimulated me to go into medicine, actually. I knew that I want to save lives, not to kill people.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-13610702"&gt;http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-13610702&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

They are as individual as a snowflake in a blizzard of living. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;This being so, how absurd it is of us to think we can 'understand' another person. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;We may remember that as young children playing together we could empathise with another's joy, or another's pain. If we really understand ourself, then we treasure this blessing throughout life - our ability to empathise. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#8000ff" size="4"&gt;I am not required to understand you, nor you I&lt;/font&gt;. What love does require of us is that we so choreograph our empathy that we may accept the beauty of each other as we dance the melody of life. If we look through those childhood empathatic eyes, we will see the miracle of each other. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;And in just the same way the snowstorm surrounds us with countless millions of individually beautiful miracles if we will look, so we are surrounded by the vast and staggeringly beautiful landscape of humanity.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;gg&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3131786-3503868578570963025?l=ito.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ito.blogspot.com/feeds/3503868578570963025/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3131786&amp;postID=3503868578570963025&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3131786/posts/default/3503868578570963025'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3131786/posts/default/3503868578570963025'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ito.blogspot.com/2011/02/unless-you-are-as-little-child.html' title='unless you are as a little child….'/><author><name>keith</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_qzKRwZeyG3Y/SYGQFhCs0hI/AAAAAAAAAf0/4iSABPinGE0/S220/geoff-cap-04S.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh6.ggpht.com/_qzKRwZeyG3Y/TVUkzoIixMI/AAAAAAAAD3k/89VChKyjAHo/s72-c/Ragnhild-Monsen_art-166_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3131786.post-2575114953914595779</id><published>2011-02-02T10:06:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2011-02-02T10:06:11.172+01:00</updated><title type='text'>et tu Brute</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;“Friendship is not something that you learn in school.

Being kind to each other is in our own best interests!

It would be good to know how many &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;innocent Muslims were actually in Drottninggatan at or around that time.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The fact that a&amp;#160; so –called Jidadist website web-site claims the 'lone'(?) bomber was &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;acting on behalf of Al-Quaeda is simply that – a claim. It appears the man so far &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;identified was also of exceptionally high moral and religious character – married &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;with 2 children he nevertheless was to be found on the ' Muslima dating website'.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;So, just to be sure we understand, the Q'ran expressly forbids the murder of innocents. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This was no more a religious act than climbing everest proves the world is flat.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The actions of an emotionally or psychologically disoriented individual do not &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;represent any recognisable tenets of a true religion – if those actions are without &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;love, they have nothing to do with God.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A true religion – and it's leaders – finds ways to heal wounds and and not create more pain.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Is not this    &lt;br /&gt;the way of Christ, of the Bhudda, the Dalai Lama, Gandhi and others    &lt;br /&gt;we regard as 'spiritual greats' that have walked the earth?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Question&lt;/strong&gt;: If you lack 'self respect' how can you expect others to respect you?&lt;/p&gt;
