*** About the Book ***
The Universe, the Earth and Human Beings
These Splendid Things for their Dignity and Survival
|
"It all boils down to recognizing the dignity of every person. First
of all, it is most important to become aware of one's own dignity. If you
do that, you will become aware of the dignity of others. So you naturally
respect them. We can then create a culture in which humankind can coexist
together, and we can live that way. In this sense, the basic point is for
all of us to become aware of our own dignity.
The dignity of life that no one can deny is my existence, and the one dignified
is a human being.
When you accept this very truth, you can admit the same for others. This
is an important point. As creatures of the universe we humans are equally
endowed with the wisdom. By getting to know ourselves we can greatly develop
our inner wisdom."
