Whenever I see these circumstances, I realize that the state of human society has made no progress since ancient times. Even though we search for our ideals in this society, we can expect nothing from it because the hearts of the people who build up society are egoistic. Human efforts ought to help us consider ways to exist together, to respect each other, and to live together peacefully. It is very difficult to build up such an ideal society, however, since our desires take priority. We inevitably come to antagonism between nations, races, and religions and take a selfish attitude regardless of others.
Politicians aim at a political reformation.
I agree with the opinion that politicians generally grasp at power and pay no mind to reform. Nevertheless, we cannot criticize politicians only. We should reflect on many points. The world is an illusion and impure. In Buddhism, truth is understood simply as the fact that things exist as they are.
