Yea, harming is a real thing, and it can't be onenessed away, but it's really a matter of intent, and basically about keeping a check on the malice you might generate. It's harder than it sounds because we like our justification stories, and we aren't always honest with ourselves. I know it sounds better to say perfect love and the oneness of all things, but to be truthful about yourself is less fantastic yet more profound because you have that aversion and that craving that leads to ill-will, malice, temptation and such immorality. One has to be able to see that happen within themselves and understand the process of it. It might mean you don't love yourself as much a you'd like to or as much as you've been told you should, but at least you know the truth about the person that you are.
