How to Explore a Perspective
Relax, focus. Take a step back and look at the Perspective from all sides. Now, zero in at the center!
What is the Bias?
What assumptions does it make? Whose interests does it serve?
What is your Personal Experience?
How does it make you feel? How do your experiences, privileges, and personal interests affect your understanding of it?

▶ Say something good about what you disagree with, even if there are flaws.
▶ Find causes, not symptoms. Ask what lies at the root.
▶ Have respect for people with different views, insights, and priorities!

The Brothers Karamazov, by Feodor Dostoyevsky
Always decide to use humble love
At some thoughts one stands perplexed, especially at the sight of men’s sin, and asks oneself whether one should use force or love and humility. Always decide to use humble love. If you resolve on that once and for all, you may subdue the whole world. Loving humility is marvelously strong, the strongest of all things, and there is nothing else like it.
Love the animals, love the plants, love everything. If you love everything, you will perceive the divine mystery in things. Once you perceive it, you will begin to comprehend it better every day. And you will come at last to love the whole world with an all-embracing love. Love the animals: God has given them the rudiments of thought and joy untroubled. Do not trouble it, don’t harass them, don’t deprive them of their happiness, don’t work against God’s intent. Man, do not pride yourself on superiority to the animals; they are without sin, and you, with your greatness, defile the earth by your appearance on it, and leave the traces of your foulness after you — alas, it is true of almost every one of us!

The Brothers Karamazov is a book that changed my life.
The Brothers Karamazov is a book that changed my life. At many times in my life, when nothing around me made sense, when I had no one to guide me, to show me the difference between the dissolute and the sublime, between the profane and the sacred, I was able to find support in the pages of this long book.
Dostoyevsky wrote at the very beginning of the modern era, 150 years ago, when the changes resulting from the triumph of science and materialism were first becoming visible. What happens when the idea of the ultimate, of true goodness, is annihilated? How can we possibly have meaningful lives?
