Every time you harm another life — any life — you harm yourself tenfold.

I’ve shared this truth before, and it bears repeating.

You cannot escape your pain by passing it on to another.

We are all one — all beings, all forms — woven from the same living fabric, born of the same Source: Love.

There is only One of us, in all truth.

Any thought of separation is pure illusion.

You can try to deny this.

You can consciously — or unconsciously — harm another being.

You can continue to act from your own unhealed pain.

But know this: in doing so, you are deepening your own suffering — not lessening it.

You are digging yourself deeper into your own mire.

Let me say it again, clearly:

You cannot free yourself of pain by inflicting it upon another life.

Whether that life breathes air, swims in water, walks on two legs or four, or sings unseen in the currents of this world — to harm it out of anger, to dump your pain upon it, to use it as a vessel for your own unhealed wounds, is to harm yourself.

You will not find freedom this way.

You will multiply your pain — tenfold — and this harm ripples into the energy field of this planet, and far out into the greater cosmos.

This is the law of life — whether we like it or not.

And this is why the path of true healing is always the path of Love.

Of responsibility.

Of reverence for the life that moves through all things.

Thank you for listening.
