1. Nahhh, you're privileged to be born in a time when you can make a positive impact and alleviate suffering.

No doubt, in a previous life (I still don't have a handle on that stuff) you discovered your true nature, as a bodhisattva, and as such, vowed to make things better, even if --- perhaps ESPECIALLY if --- it meant dwelling in a world where the golden rule was turned upside down.

Instead of "treat others as you would like to be treated, yourself"

It's

"No good deed goes unpunished:

But. as you say, "GO FIX THIS" mess.

If you (and I and ohters) don't, then it just gets worse.



No need to teach the ENTIRE Noble Eightfold Path. I have found that if the first four spread, the world will be so much better.,

• Right understanding. (most get it exactly opposite of what works for everyone)
Hint: Life's a mirror. How you treat others is a reflection of how you view yourself.
• Right Intention. "I resolve to make things better"
• Right speech. Say it, brothers and sisters. You're in a hole, trying to escape using a shovel.
• Right actions. Be so f-cking good that others, even dirtbags, will be jealous.

P.S. Karna usually works on a time scale that we aren't so happy with.
That's why we bust ass!
