Thought exercise: what should be the characteristics of a “new and improved” human being? And can we pretend to become such humans right now?

Non-violent resistance would be a trait of the new human being, but Gandhi advocated this and was asked if it would work against someone such as Hitler?  He answered, “yes, but not without defeat.”  So, we can pretend to become the new and improved human being now, but we will have to accept some defeat on the way to changing the world.

I am one. Everyone can change for the better. There is a light at the end of the tunnel.

New and improved human being treated everyone (plants, animals and other humans) equal.  No one’s life is more important than another. Everything has the right to live in fulfillment and harmony. And yes we can do it, even if we start from just pretending ( like a experiment)

We can pretend to become more loving and caring and funny enough it actually works. It can teach ohters to do the same for a better world.

Characteristics of a “new and improved” human being: One that cares for the environment and animals. Loving his fellow like himself and taming his ego.

[Adelina Santos]

Yes, I think we can, because by pretending to become that something we become that something. If we want to bestow gradually we will prepare ourselves to the intention of bestowal.
