Urmi Chanda

Sentientist

Compassion and reason the cornerstones of a peaceful and progressive society, and I personally wouldn’t mind calling myself a sentientist. However, as a person who dabbles with faith and faith traditions, I have to respect the beliefs of many, which cannot always be backed by reason. As long as people find their peace. 🙂

Amanda Harris

Sentientist

I like to think I spend my time on this planet developing – my intellect, my reason, my compassion. It takes discipline of thought and love to rise above our basic instincts, and I am happy and willing and loving enough to work towards that discipline for the sake of my fellow sentient beings.

We’ve been brainwashed to believe competition is the essence of life. It isn’t. There is competition. But cooperation is more common, more vital, more quintessential to life.
