Violence destroys, love builds and transforms. Mahatma Gandhi has said, "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind." As we so often say on this program, the power is in nonviolence, the power is in love. Love is a choice we make when we realize that in spite of the fear and anger which has motivated us for so long, the path to freedom and the fulfillment of our spiritual ideals is based in love.
In this episode, Leona and Matthew discuss the reptilian, or primal brain and its effects on violent behavior, and recommend methods to free ourselves from negative and self-defeating mindsets.
