There doesn’t seem to be any hope unless compassion becomes a more widespread, important teaching on how to live. Compassion to self and others.
Allen Ginsberg (1926 CE-1997 CE), Irwin Allen Ginsberg was an American poet and writer. As a student at Columbia University in the 1940s, he began friendships with William S. Burroughs and Jack Kerouac, forming the core of the Beat Generation. He vigorously opposed militarism, economic materialism, and sexual repression, and he embodied various aspects of this counterculture with his views on drugs, sex, multiculturalism, hostility to bureaucracy, and openness to Eastern religions.
