Why don't we get this?
There never was a good war or a bad peace.

"In the post-meditative experience become a child of illusion" is a slogan from the Tibetan mind training tradition. We engage the world as we experience it all the while realizing that reality is not as it seems to be.

Sorry. I'm back to semantics.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely no such thing as a good war.
But we do have bad peace sometimes.
Maybe always.
We need to work harder at peace when we're at peace.
I think you've made a good point MadPriest. Maybe what Franklin was on about is that there is no peace so bad that it's not worth working to improve. In other words, no peace is bad enough that we might as well throw in the towel and start killing each other.
