The Light of Dharma July 2021 – June 2022 7

Editorial Preface

Now this crisis situation, or the “disease-world-war”, has seen the virus
attacking people on all continents not discriminating between ideologies,

capitalists or communists. Even though the attacking virus is just a microbe,
how do we protect, treat ourselves? Is it with medicine, vaccine and safety
precautions?
It seems the virus can mutate itself rapidly to continually defy human

knowledge and sciences. No one knows when this war will end. It defies
our three weapons by adapting itself. Doesn’t it?
Buddhists, or anyone who is enlighten and of any nation or religion,

need to deeply consider this crisis and follow the Buddhist teachings.
This is the teachings’ of nature, of caution, seeking and using the truth, of
science, generosity to others and nature, patience, sacrifice and seeing the
human loss as normal.

This is the way of the Buddhists.
