The haves and the have-nots

The law of nature determines the occurrence and the outcome of all events and it is a fact that the law of nature is on the side of the so-called have-nots. If you see people in terms of the future, you can say that today’s have-nots are tomorrow’s haves and today’s haves are tomorrow’s have-nots.

The Dalai Lama & the Pope and Wars We Learn to Live With

During Holy Week, Pope Leo XIV and the Dalai Lama jointly condemned the use of God's name to justify war, emphasizing that religious traditions fundamentally teach love and compassion. Their powerful, unqualified appeal rejects the seductive arguments of necessity and exception that fuel conflict, urging a moral refusal of violence and a recognition of shared humanity.
