Parts One-Five: One of the core components of Tibetan Buddhist philosophy and ethics is compassion. The practice of genuine concern for others is actually quite rare, Robert Thurman explains, and many humans use their precious lives to create suffering versus peace for others. With the gift of intelligence, human beings have great power to think. In extreme cases, one human being, the Nechung Oracle warns, can dominate the entire world. All beings have the capacity to develop their minds and to reach enlightenment, Thurman says, and it is possible to achieve happiness. Human beings have caused global warming, and so our excessive desires and appetites are the root of the destruction of the environment. Watch Part Two of the Medium of the State Oracle of Tibet series and listen to the Nechung Oracle outline steps humanity can take to begin to heal the planet.
