A teaching by Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo (via @ahkonlhamo on Twitter)
The poison of HATE fouls the Beauty of LIFE.
The poison of HATE desecrates the pure nectar of Dharma.
The face of HATE is so ugly that it makes haters themselves UGLY.
The damage caused by HATE is equally damaging to the perpetrator as it is to the VICTIM!
The sickness of HATE only makes the Hater even SICKER.
To HATE is to murder one’s own heart and mind. Our nature is Bodhicitta…LOVE!
Hatred, greed, and ignorance are the three main root poisons. If hate isn’t destroyed in this human rebirth, then WHEN?
