Deeply-rooted conditioning has perverted us. We ARE the culture of violence. We must look at ourselves.

We are all artificial and have been unnaturally changed by violence and unwholesome conditioning.

The struggle to excavate your true, authentic self from beneath the mountain of conditioning and ridiculous expectation is the epic struggle of your lifetime.

Remember that many "negative" people were conditioned by people with smaller minds and hearts, so forgive them.

No matter how awakened you are, the conditioning roots are deep; very deep. Reclamation is a constant process.
