Mirka Kavonius on Instagram: "This sketch is as current as it was when it first aired. What does that say about humanity. There are so many conflicts still in the world and the institutions/organizations/vessels that were designed to create true peace and understanding, dialogue and common united goals have not been able to do so. If we would put all the funds and investments in creating societies and global community that truly sees one another and works together, instead of the war machine, occupation, chaos and self-interests just think what we could achieve. There is no peace and happiness for me if my brother or sister is hurting. The destruction and chaos will eventually reach and inflect on me as well. ”The premise behind this idea of universal responsibility is the simple fact that, in general terms, all others’ desires are the same as mine. Every being wants happiness and does not want suffering. If we, as intelligent human beings, do not accept this fact, there will be more and more suffering on this planet. If we adopt a self-centred approach to life and constantly try to use others for our own self-interest, we may gain temporary benefits, but in the long run we will not succeed in achieving even personal happiness, and world peace will be completely out of the question.” ”A universal humanitarian approach to world problems seems the only sound basis for world peace. What does this mean? We begin from the recognition mentioned previously that all beings cherish happiness and do not want suffering. It then becomes both morally wrong and pragmatically unwise to pursue only one’s own happiness oblivious to the feelings and aspirations of all others who surround us as members of the same human family. The wiser course is to think of others also when pursuing our own happiness. This will lead to what I call ’wise self-interest’, which hopefully will transform itself into ’compromised self-interest’, or better still, ’mutual interest’.” - The Dalai Lama"
