================================================================

IMHO, Ethics and compassion may appear as important/necessary

qualities as we roam samsara believing we are a body and that

there is a right and a wrong. The reality, in my view, is

that ethics and compassion are part of the duality. Once one

reaches the non-dual (One Taste), there are no opposites

such as unethical or being without compassion. One becomes

ethical and compassionate as one becomes the mountain.
