How the mind and heart can be changed by humanity?

The human mind is soft and tender by nature, but bad thoughts can enter the mind and change it. All are good, but there are bad actions.

Desires (for pleasure) are the main reason for violence in this world, since they trigger fear (of pain), which in turn trigger insecurity and violence.

To be strong, we need strong qualities, whereas today we mistake weak qualities (anger, violence) for the strong ones (peace, non-violence, respect), and we end up in the wrong station.

To bring back the original balance in our mind, we need to practice the Human Values [1] which are the essence of any human being.

Once we practice these values, they'll gradually change the structure of our mind. We'll avoid to inflict pain to others, we'll stop sabotaging ourselves, and we'll find unlimited peace. That peace doesn't come from the external world, our PhD, or our social status, but rather from our own Self (Atma [2]) which is timeless, near and dear.
