Transcript
00:00People say they love each other and lovers harm each other much more than strangers too.
00:05If you look at the cases of homicide, murder and all across the world you will find a staggeringly
00:12high percentage of people who have been killed by their lovers, their family members, their spouses.
00:20Where is it coming from? We say the intention is good. The action is gross, visible, obvious,
00:26irrefutable. You can see someone doing something. Intention is something subtle. It occurs in the
00:32mind. So it's easy to lie about the intention. About the action you cannot lie. It's right
00:38there in your face with proof. So what do we do? In our laughable cleverness we say,
00:43oh yeah I know the action is bad and the results are bad but the intent was good because the intent
00:49anyway cannot be displayed as something on the hand. Here is the intent. Nobody can come and
00:54prove to you that your intent itself is malicious.
