You protectIn just a few months, I got assaulted 5 times for no reason by bottom IQ alcoholics in a dorm. Because of my look, and sometimes because of 5 seconds of words (no insults).
What should I have done under your non duality and dissolving of boundaries?
1. Doing ahimsa, blessing them, being compassionate, and letting them cripple me for life?
2. Retaliating, and if using weapons retaliating with high chance of crippling them for life or killing?
You talk about dissolving boundaries with other humans.
How about when other humans does not mean your gf, your cute sister and nice mother, and your protective friends, but bottom trash of society who wants to harm and cripple you for no reason? They live right now and will continue to live till end of life as a demographic, and you are simply either lucky to not encounter them or unlucky to encounter them.
But not just for yourself but for everything. By protecting a precedent is set, that this cannot happen
It extends beyond just you
Future actions had you not, future victims. Everything is connected. It is inclusionary
You don’t view it as protecting yourself
Karma is a balance too. Which is why I replied to your previous questioning with this
You and I both know the less non cope belief system, the more it converges to Karma and reincarnation. Gnostics and western 3sotericism both believe in these Eastern viewpoints
Look into Perennial Philosophy
