Guest guest Posted September 5, 2002 Report Share Posted September 5, 2002 Namaste, http://www.bpf.org/loy-goodevil.html On the Nonduality of Good and Evil: Buddhist Reflections on the New Holy War David R. Loy ...."The final word I have to offer on this choice is neither Christian nor Buddhist, reminding us that no religious traditions have a monopoly on this wisdom. It is an anonymous story (I could not trace its source) that was included in an email I received after September 11th. A Native American grandfather was talking to his grandson about how he felt about the tragedy on September 11th. He said, 'I feel as if I have two wolves fighting in my heart. One wolf is vengeful, angry, violent. The other wolf is loving, forgiving, compassionate.' The grandson asked him, 'Which wolf will win the fight in your heart?' The grandfather answered, 'The one I feed.' " [David Loy has also written a book : Non-duality - Studies in Comparative Philosophy - Yale Univ. Press, 1999. Deals with Buddhism,and Advaita].
