In Order to Handle the World Crisis, We Must Find a Common Ground



Yellow Flowers by Krupa Shah 


“You, Bedouin of Libya who saved our lives, though you will dwell forever in my memory yet I shall never be able to recapture your features. You are Humanity and your face comes into my mind simply as man incarnate. You, our beloved fellowman, did not know who we might be, and yet you recognized us without fail. And I, in my turn, shall recognize you in the faces of all mankind. You came towards me in an aureole of charity and magnanimity bearing the gift of water. All my friends and all my enemies marched towards me in your person. It did not seem to me that you were rescuing me: rather did it seem that you were forgiving me. And I felt I had no enemy left in all the world.” 

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Wind, Sand and Stars

There is a difference between the individual person and Man himself


What am I, as a human being?

Is there nothing else but this ego, which most of us consider as the most important in Man?

If you look philosophical at it, there is a difference between the individual person and Man himself. The individual person is a located being, who lives in a particular country, belongs to a particular culture, a particular religion.

Man, on the other hand, is not a located being. Man is everywhere.
