About Hatred

From a Dharma perspective, hatred is a destructive mental state stemming from ignorance and aversion. It arises when we perceive others or situations as threats to our desires or sense of self. Hatred clouds judgment and perpetuates suffering, leading to harmful actions and negative karma. Through mindfulness and understanding, we recognize the interconnectedness of all beings, cultivating compassion and forgiveness to overcome hatred. By letting go of attachment to self and embracing loving-kindness, we dissolve the barriers of animosity, fostering harmony and inner peace.
