what if I say,
"for the sake of protecting the beloved ones, you sometimes should respond to hatred in order to unleash wrath to your enemies"?
Today, I went to library and borrowed the famous "the art of war". The more I read it, the more my minds come to these questions:
- What are the main reasons of wars?
- is war caused by dissatisfaction and greediness of humans?
- is war because they want more than what you have?
- how should I prevent loss from war if it has to happen?
- how to make this world peaceful?
I guess I came to answer some of the questions.
- as long as there are people who love winning and gaining more than what others have, there will be wars.
- as long as there is love, there will be hatred. Both of them are inevitably standing together, seperated only by thin line. When you love some people too much, you might as well turn into an avenger when they are hurt by others.
- to prevent wars, people offer peace to others. But, Homer had stated before, a wise man prepares for war while in peace. So, does it mean that offering your enemy a peace is actually preparing for the war in the future?
oh well, too many questions to answer, I guess I will go back to reading for now...
war and its philosophies, they are just way too sophisticated and complicated
they show me how people struggle when they are in despair and in between the seperation gate of life and death. While people struggle, they advance to the next stage of intellegence. If they can't, they die and perish away.
The art of war itself, I call it the lifesaver and deathbringer
lifesaver to the one who masters the knowledge taught by it
deathbringer to the one who doesn't possess it or master the knowledge
