O
Bodhisattvas!
May all
beings, without an exception, benefit utmost by this action in all
ways possible, "spiritually" and "materially" alike, starting with
all beings that there are here and now.
O Bodhisattvas!
One thing in every Bodhisattva's practice these days stands out: no
matter how hard we practice--so that all beings (without an
exception) benefit--the conditions for life in this world continue
to deteriorate at ever increasing pace.
What can be going wrong? Why isn't the quality of life for all
beings here and now improving?
No matter what explanations there might be offered, none satisfies,
no matter how authoritative those explanations might be.
I would like to offer an explanation that, perhaps, will make
sense:
The reason that things in this world are going from bad to worse,
generally, is that we don't have a clear idea, a clear thought in
our minds, of how the affairs in this world should be conducted in
order to create the optimal conditions for existence for all beings
here and now. Or, perhaps, we, individually, do have ideas of how
this should be done, but not a single one of our ideas is identical
with each other, and we might even not know it, since there is no
proper way to compare our ideas that we might have on the subject
with each other, and therefore we all direct our efforts towards,
sometimes even fundamentally, divergent objectives; in the end, due
to our working for different objectives, because there is no
clearly defined idea of what this world should be like at its
optimum, there is no chance for conditions for all life here and
now to become optimal ever.
What needs to be done is that we all agree (by what-so-ever
expedient and skillful means) on what actually the optimal
conditions for all life on Earth should be. Without our harmonizing
and unifying of all such ideas of what the ideal state of things in
this world should be, we shall continue to see the situation in
this world to deteriorate, wondering all the time how come our
various practices meant to benefit all beings optimally bear no
results here and now.
That all beings (with no exception) benefit optimally, fully here
and now is very important, because here and now is forever in all
three times and all directions of space. If all beings don't
benefit by our actions here and now, they never will. Here and now
is all we have ever. All beings have to benefit here and now!
Bodhisattvas! What kind of a world should the Earth be to
accommodate all life optimally? How shall we unify, harmonize all
our individual ideas about what this world should be like ideally
so that we all work towards one clearly defined objective?
May all differences, all controversies, all conflicts, all
complaints that there are in this world among all beings be
resolved peacefully without any delays by the power of all
Bodhisattvas ever merit!
!OmManiPadmeHum!
May humans become fully and truly forever transparently sustainable
for their own good and for the benefit of all beings!

If we, the people, were really sincere about having real Peace in
the world, we would pursue creating Peace by peaceful means more
actively rather than by relying on our military might!
