The practicing of loving kindness toward one’s enemy is the ultimate test of one’s own spiritual attainment.
‘You have heard that it was said, “You shall love your neighbour and hate your enemy.” But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be children of your Father in heaven - Jesus in Matthew 5:43-47
No, ‘if your enemies are hungry, feed them; if they are thirsty, give them something to drink; for by doing this you will heap burning coals on their heads.’ - St. Paul in Romans 12:20
