Being compassionate that all the bad traits you mentioned came into existence as tools for survival by nature and the individual selves are not responsible for it can help to love them more.

Survival is for the DEADS.
Living is for the LIVINGS.

Is there an inherent difference between the limitation of a car being unable to fly to the moon and the limitation of Hitler being unable to love the Jewish people? Similarly, is there a difference between Hitler being unable to love the Jewish people and you being unable to love selfish people?

Are you trying in a subtle way to tell me that I m Hitler ?

There will always be some bias as long as you exist as form. Form=bias.

@Razard86 Finding ways to minimize it is all we can do. But being careful about it becoming a bias against bias is tricky.

Thought of one more that works for me.

Focusing specifically on things I love about humans, and also on man-made things I am grateful for.

Like when I'm eating cheese, it was some human who made it possible. How do I know that annoying human I just met on the subway is not the same human who played a role in that cheese?

For instance, my husband and I are renovating an old house now. Thanks to all these various building materials we can create a house of our dreams, and all of those materials have been made by humans.

The trick is, to only notice the things that you really feel grateful for.

It's not tricky, trying to minimize your bias...is itself a bias against bias...why not maximize your bias? Your desire to minimize your bias is just an egoic strategy for survival. Basically you are so ONE, that being selfish and selfless is the same thing. The only reason Selflessness is superior...is because it is ALL INCLUSIVE. It includes everything. Whereas selfishness= division which is the root of all discrimination, which is the root of all corruption and conflict.

But without bias....there is no you and me. There is no story, no journey. It would literally BE, NOTHING TO SEE HERE FOLKS!!! LOL. So we need bias so we can have SOMETHING TO SEE HERE FOLKS.

[Razard86]

Also one additional point....for Infinity to be infinity it must include limitation and limitation and bias are the same thing. So literally God cannot be God without bias. Consider that one!!!

@Razard86 So, then, the best course of action is to find balance, like in every other area of life. Thanks for clarifying!
