More From Viktor E. Frankl

I certainly do attempt to live according to spiritual principles. that's always the foundation of each and every day. i have experienced some things in my life that just force me to believe in some sort of power. a creative . . . creative power source; however you want to phrase it. i certainly have experienced that presence. and i have experienced what i consider the basic, what we would call love and concern.

Earth walks on earth, glittering in gold; earth goes to earth, sooner than it wold; earth builds on earth, palaces and towers; earth says to earth, soon, all shall be ours.

Will you teach your children what we have taught our children? that the earth is our mother? what befalls the earth befalls all the sons of the earth. this we know: the earth does not belong to man, man belongs to the earth. all things are connected like the blood that unites us all. man did not weave the web of life, he is merely a strand in it. whatever he does to the web, he does to himself. one thing we know: our god is also your god. the earth is precious to him and to harm the earth is to heap contempt on its creator.

Power properly understood is nothing but the ability to achieve purpose... one of the great problems of history is that the concepts of love and power have usually been contrasted as opposites --- polar opposites --- so that love is identified with a resignation of power, and power with a denial of love... what is needed is a realization that power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic. power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love.
Love Is Opposites Justice
It is unfortunately none too well understood that, just as the state has no money of its own, so it has no power of its own. all the power it has is what society gives it, plus what it confiscates from time to time on one pretext or another, there is no other source from which state power can be drawn. therefore every assumption of state power, whether by gift or seizure leaves society with so much less power; there is never, nor can be, any strengthening of state power without a corresponding and roughly equivalent depletion of social power.

We indians do not teach that there is only one god. we know that everything has power, including the most inanimate, inconsequential things. stones have power. a blade of grass has power. trees and clouds and all our relatives in the insect and animal world have power. we believe we must respect that power by acknowledging it's presence. by honoring the power of the spirits in that way, it becomes our power as well. it protects us.

I don't like what's going on in iraq, naturally. i'm part of a large majority of people who don't, but i do not know the whole story. i do not believe what i see on television. i believe a percentage of it, so it's hard for me to discern. i don't like what it's doing to the world.
