We all act from the desire and will of our selves. Thought solidified as desire and crystalized as will power drives this action.
However because of the limitations of thought even with good intentions the actions are incomplete and fragmentary, they solve one problem and create two more. One may have infinite resources and great intentions but as long as the self exists actions will cause conflict and dissatisfaction.We need to understand if there is an action which never causes conflict, where there is no choice involved in the acting. This action is spontaneously acted by compassion and love, the self is completely absent. Only such action can solve the world's problems and has the force of supreme intelligence behind it.
