State Oracle of Tibet Talk On Global Warming Part Five

Parts One-Five: During a time when war is raging in Iraq and over 200 countries around the world, the threat of global warming seems secondary when in fact it is the "real" threat to all life on the planet. In general, war is fueled by anger and hate, deadly mental poisons that historically have resulted in mass suffering, torture, and death. While in the short-term anger appears to be our ally in different situations, long-term, more often than not, anger is nothing more than fuel on the fire. Each individual has an inherent capacity to transform his or her mind, and to take personal responsibility for a global problem. Cultivation of loving-kindness is an absolute necessity in order to bring about the end of war, and consequently, to stop global warming. Various Buddhist meditations and practices can help individuals address and resolve negativity in the mind. Listen to Buddhist scholar Robert Thurman translate from Tibetan to English language helpful hints on global mind change.

Laotsu7777 - Good point, but no need to be too skeptical. The masses will always seek justin timberlakes or fox news stories false politicians, and so on ad infinitum. But the "right" ones (the ones who have ears to hear) can benefit from wisdom wherever it may be found. Naybe that's what matters.
