"That is why I think we should probably refrain from extreme solutions like declaring entire categories of labor as unfit for Buddhist hands. That sort of thinking can only lead to more delusional caste systems. As we practice more and see our human potentiality more clearly, we increase the likelihood that the insights we gain will evolve new ideas on how to transform unwholesome human industries from within. Like all social tools, swift radical change and mandatory restrictions also have optimal moments of deployment. But, more often than not, steady incremental change, guided and promoted by the most globally comprehensive information, is the most effective and sustainable strategy when the goal is to benefit all beings."
