“Other religions, particularly Jainism, Buddhism and Hinduism, have demonstrated even greater empathy to animals. They emphasise the connection between humans and the rest of the ecosystem, and their foremost ethical commandment has been to avoid killing any living being. Whereas the biblical ‘Thou shalt not kill’ covered only humans, the ancient Indian principle of ahimsa (non-violence) extends to every sentient being. Jain monks are particularly careful in this regard. They always cover their mouths with a white cloth, lest they inhale an insect, and whenever they walk they carry a broom to gently sweep any ant or beetle from their path.”

“Let's help the less fortunate Concrete allowed the rose to grow Which goes to show Even the hardest of heads Whose ways and beliefs are set in stone Can spontaneously surprise Uplift and give us hope Expand your consciousness, it's long overdue I know you're strong in your views Probably because you've gone through abuse Sincerely sorry for you But trials and tribulations Teach enough to allow reaching a truce”
