When we fear punishment, we focus on consequences, not on our own values.

To practice the process of conflict resolution, we must completely abandon the goal of getting people to do what we want.

When we judge others we contribute to violence.

Classifying and judging people promotes violence.

We do not look for compromise; rather, we seek to resolve the conflict to everyone's complete satisfaction.

The intention behind the protective use of force is to prevent injury, never to punish or to cause individuals to suffer, repent or change.

Unless we as social change agents come from a certain spirituality, we're likely to create more harm than good.
