Check out the letter of the Maha Chohan, its all laid
out there...
On war you can go short: don't support people who kill
or who want to kill.
No harmonic/loving mind would want to kill, the other
minds should be locked up.
Thou shall not kill, not even the air you breathe:
when breathing out you could think I am nature owned,
when I breathe I give life and renew what is
inappropriate...
Even the worst enemies of humanity shouldn't be
killed, since nature ( who is the one who actually
decides when some1 or something has to die)has a
special treatment for them...you just track the
enemies down and expose them, thats all.
