Why does this quality of absence of hatred and the next quality of absence of pride call to mind views of our planet from both far away and nearby - far away as seen in the famous "Pale Blue Dot" photo taken at a distance of 3.7 billion miles from our collective home. Nearby, as in this image of our Earth taken from Moon orbit.

Is it because a wider view of our home grants us a perspecitve we are blinded to when we are consumed with anger?
