There was this Human who lived a long, long time ago Who believed that  peace  was the most important thing in  life .  And from  peace , springs knowledge and wisdom and understanding.  Also does tolerance, acceptance and the giving of  mercy . 

​

This Human never went to any place of so-called evil and destroyed it.  He never even went inside to tell the humans that were in there that they are wrong in what they are doing and that they need to straighten out and stop.  Nope, NOT ONCE.

​

His message was always one of  peace  and  hope  and  family .  Not bad for a human.  I like Him.  Of all the things that He did, the one thing that stands out (to me) is what He didn’t do - HE NEVER DEFENDED HIMSELF.  He was called a charlatan, a fraud, a magician, just plain evil and sometimes even the devil himself.  Not once did He defend Himself against those charges.  They were as water off a ducks back.  He never, not once, took the time out to defend his position.  He just demonstrated it and spoke it.  And concerning The Message, although how it is received is important, He knew, the most important thing was the Message Itself.  He did not water down The Message to get more people to understand it.  Either they got it or they didn’t.  Those who didn’t did concern Him, but not as much as those who did.

​

By not constantly defending Himself and His Message, He was  free  to spend all of His time on The Message, and no time on dissenters, disbelievers and agents of evil who were there only to be Agents of Dissent, trying their best to derail the movement. 

​

It didn’t work.  His  idea  is still a very powerful thing.
