"Ek Onkar", bas jehi kaafi h , Hello SimranJeet, I am from India, and believe so much in all you have written here, you are divine too, Thank you for this!
This is the Usual screed of liberals. To separate a person from their actions, how do you do this?
Your actions express your character, there is no way to make you into 2 personalities. How else can you express yourself and show your society who you are than by living and acting according to your ideas, which you then try to use to influence your society and the people you come in contact with. An evil deed is evil. You cannot pretend this person who kills or rapes is a good person. If he were, he would not commit these immoral, evil deeds. Nobody commits evil or any actions that hurt, damage or make life worse for others and is considered a good person. He plans to be evil, then acts upon it. How can you considered him a good person? We need more teaching of morality. Our young people need to be taught clear thinking, Aristotle’s Ethic would be a good start.
I have but one question do you consider the Republican nominee for president to be a horrible person? As an adjudicated rapist he has certainly committed horrible acts yet somehow is typically forgiven
I don't think we have to consider everyone a good person nor do I think we need to consider everyone to be divine. Horrible people have something behind their horrible deeds. I think we need to try to understand what those things are so that we can go forward and try to avoid having more nasty people who are born of ill treatment to themselves from people close to them or from the world in general. In actual fact, I think we really need to remember that not everyone IS divine but we need to accept and understand them anyway. And try to get them to want and accept help.
Namaste, my friend. For an enlightening perspective please read “Are You Still Mine?” by Mary Ellen Lukas. A divine feminine balance articulated in the most comprehensive text, engrossing read.
Yes we are all made of stardust and yes I guess that makes all of us divine in some way. But that does not mean that all of us are good or that we must look upon those who are doing bad or dangerous or evil things as good. And then the issue becomes: what the heck do we do about that?
This is beautifully articulated. This gives the reader so much to consider. Thank you.

Of course we still need to deal with the question, are sentient beings divine and do they deserve the same respect?
