Let us continue with excerpts where the Reverend Doctor explains how this noble concept of “reverence for life” came about.

“Now I knew that a system of values which concerns itself only with our relationship to other people is incomplete and therefore lacking in power for good. Only by means of reverence for life can we establish a spiritual and humane relationship with both people and all living creatures within our reach. Only in this fashion can we avoid harming others and, within the limits of our capacity, go to their aid whenever they need us. The philosophy of Reverence for Life follows from taking the world as it is.” “Reverence for Life brings us into a spiritual relation with the world, which is independent of all knowledge of the universe. Through the dark valley of resignation, it leads us by an inward necessity up to the shining heights of ethical acceptance of the world.”

“It is unthinkable that we civilized peoples should keep for ourselves alone the wealth of means for fighting sickness, pain, and death which science has given us. If there is any ethical thinking at all among us, how can we refuse to let these new discoveries benefit those who, in distant lands, are subject to even greater physical distress than we are?” “Whoever among us has, through personal experience, learned what pain and anxiety really are must help to ensure that those who out there are in bodily need obtain the help which came to him. He belongs no more to himself alone; he has become the brother of all who suffer.”
