"Hatred is never appeased by hatred.
By non-hatred alone is hatred appeased.
This is an eternal law."
-The Buddha, in the Dhammapada.
Lama Dawa's Commentary #36:
Seldom does the Buddha talk of eternal laws.
It's not the terminology he often used, but here he strikingly.
Says that only by non-hatred is hatred eliminated.
In other words, he's saying that hatred is not counteracted by more hatred.
This is kind of like in the Bible, turning the other cheek.
What the Buddha is saying is that love is the antidote.
Compassion is the antidote.
Forgiveness is the antidote.
These are the ways to diffuse situations.
This is the way to unravel the trap of anger and hatred, which can be a vicious cycle.
How do we break the cycle?
Not through more hatred, not through resentment and anger, not through striking out, but by being calm, patient, understanding, forgiving and loving.
This is the eternal law the Buddha is talking of here.
