Simplified Meaning:
When people don't know or understand something, it can lead to bad actions and hurtful behavior. For example, if someone doesn't learn about other cultures or beliefs, they might judge or treat people unfairly. This lack of knowledge and understanding can cause disagreements, fights, and even wars. Imagine a person who sees someone from a different country and assumes they are dangerous just because they look different. This kind of thinking can lead to fear and hate, which are harmful to everyone involved. To live in harmony and make better decisions, it's important for people to seek knowledge and understanding. Learning about others helps us become more caring and less likely to harm others without reason.
