random insight I felt worth of sharing

[phoenix666]

random insight I had during my breakfast today: to hurt someone is to hurt oneself. I don't know where that came from, it was like a flash, like someone turned a light on. it wasn't a pure thought, more an emotion that rippled through my body. I hope this will help me embody unconditional love and empathy.

No it doesn't help. Only an insight into the matter will.

The insight isn't about hurting oneself and/or others, though that is what resonated in you in terms of knowledge.

That experience is an instance of real knowledge.

Hurting, per se, isn't necessarily a bad thing— it depends on the time.

The point of your spontaneous insight (not random) is that the essence of karma is essentially unified.

It is possible to use karma (in a form of practical reversion) to restore one's unified enlightening function.

That you know this truth (inasmuch as you experienced it directly) cannot be denied.

@phoenix666 Yes! ❤️

@Phrae what do you mean by insight into the matter?

@deci belle yes, you're right! it was actually more spontaneous than random. maybe I came up with the term because I was so surprised and I felt like it came out of nowhere. do you mean the essence is actually that however I interact with others/nature is how I interact with myself because I am everything? and that my mind interpreted this truth with this one specific example of hurting? 

how can I use karma to restore my unified enlightening function?

And it's corollary: to love someone is to love yourself.
