The Example of Nature

In our world innumerable events take place, governed by the law of nature: for instance,the continuous rotation of the earth, the receiving of light from the sun, the blowing of the wind, the onset of rains, the flowing of rivers, the growing of plants and trees,etc. All occurrences of this nature continue day and night. How striking it is that they
occur in an extremely peaceful manner. There is no violence, no clash, no confrontation.This being the natural way of reform, human beings ought to follow this way of nature,completely shunning violence and confrontation.

Character of a Peace-Loving Person

Man should not conduct himself violently relying on things like gun or bombs, but should draw their strength from noble human qualities, such as patience, forbearance,avoidance of conflict, a willingness for mutual adjustment, etc. These strategies of a peace-loving person are in conformance with the eternal and ineluctable laws of nature. Those who go against them will certainly create great disturbances everywhere; they
will never be able to establish a reformed system.
