Please ignore the English and stay focus on the content.

I was reading something totally different for different purpose but ended up liking this analogy to the point that I wanted to use it for my writing about God instead of the human brain, what author had intended.

 

The book is “An introduction to theories of personality. Forth edition, Chapter, one Page 12”.

by the B. R. Hergenhahn, so I would quote his words first and then carry on to the blog.

And I “Quote”

To illustrate, imagine yourself in a dark room in which you cannot touch a complex object directly. As long as the room remains dark, you will know nothing about the object except that it is there. Now suppose that a faint light illuminates part of the object thus allowing you to see part of it. You now know more about the object than you did before but much remains unknown. Now another beam of light falls on the object, then another and another. You walk around the object noting what has been illuminated by the various beams of light. Because the beams are coming from different directions, many beams allow you to learn more about the object. Some beams are narrow and bright, concentrating on a small area but exposing greater detail. Other beams are broader but dimmer, allowing you to learn about a larger area but in less detail. Some beams may overlap others but all are useful. In fact the greater the number of beams and angles, the more information you will have because each beam illuminates a part of the object of interest that previously was dark.”

End Quote”

The closer we get to our potential more we would know about God, but the journey towards our potential has always been difficult because of our in fighting and the politics of power. We always have been evolving and learning thus every day there are more discoveries to advance the interest of the human being. It is a well known fact that there is more room to learn, if there is more room to learn, then we should be humble about our existing knowledge. We still do and always have been claiming that our knowledge is better or complete yet are only able to use the fraction of our brain powers thus our claims that we know every thing there is to know including about God is logically false.

Some say spirituality starts where our logic fails but I believe if you start to think logically you end up becoming spiritual. A scientist may not believe in God but end up serving humanity even more than religious leaders. Saving human lives is not only serving humanity, it is serving God because God can’t function without the human beings. If you are an atheist or belong to the opposing religion but you invent some thing like insulin, some vaccine or an antibiotic drug which saves millions of human lives, because of your contribution, in my opinion your standing is higher than any passionate fanatic of any and all religions.( Read practical vs prayers). 

The journey to evolve to human potential, is to gain the knowledge with the right tempo and speed of adaptation to understanding. A pin hole at a time, slow and steady approach to dig in, to find out more about our potential. Taking charge and responsibility, yet being humble to serve God’s will.

Being subcontractor with a five bucks worth free will, and having a CEO authority is the key to understand and live a successful life a human individual. God’s gain is in human’s success, because God’s work is done by the Godly human. Even if the physical work is done by the human being the thoughts to do God’s work come from the source directly.

Having a CEO authority creates confusion to less evolved and mortal human who thinks that every thing is done by him/her alone. If every thing is held by the thread internally and externally for the individual, how can an individual claim that? The ego is created by the strong sense of belonging to the belonging group not to God or humanity as a whole.

In the end the real Godly human is standing vulnerable literally , ready to surrender with whatever he/she got, without the ego, pride, sense of belonging or freedom. Being healthy wealthy and humble makes life worth living to self God and God’s people, otherwise two extremes emerge. The egotistic, arrogant and self serving, boundary less, without the sense of self destructive behavior Godless human being or the self sacrificing, obedient, bound in self created boundaries, drive less human who leaves everything on God. Non of them is following God’s will, because God created human to run his/her life and God’s affairs simultaneously, the one who is a CEO and does not look to God for everything, who is resourceful to make God proud by his/her independent abilities.

Most religions promote that God is an entity out there. I believe, we all have a little shot of God in us, we process, we believe and dance accordingly. If you are genetically susceptible, just like the alcohol, to some, it can give higher high than other kind of high. Religions do the same for the people, for instance same mosque, church or temple will have people who believe  in God at different percentage.

If they don’t agree they form their own group and eventually make another mosque, church or temple just a block away, regardless of the denominations and sects most religions have people difference of opinions about what is written in even the holy books. The openly defy each other yet when it comes to the individual they all want to control him/her with harsh punishments and shunning. 

Does God has anything to do with it? No God is, has been and will stay consistent and the same but evolves as the human beings evolve. Thus the educated human has been is and will be changing, and this change has been the biggest threat to the organized religions because with the Internet’s availability educated human individual would be impossible to control. The examples are already showing up from Arab sparing to fights for the human rights to religious wars they all point towards the things would get worse before they get better.  

It doesn’t really matter to you individually, if you are connected to God spiritually, but if you are a part of an organization you see the future where, your belonging group will lose power, that vision is causing problems in the conservative populations in all over the world.

If you look at it critically, most religions give a whole lot of power to God and preach that we should believe that things are done by the God. God created human being with the potential and continuous evolving abilities that means God has a lot of confidence in human being. It’s the human being who is fearful of his/her own evolutionary knowledge.

We should use the power of hope and optimism which belongs to that little shot of God everybody is equally blessed with but that is in short supply for the extremists because they take matters in their hand and act upon it by killing each other. We as an individual carry the compassion, love and the ability to sacrifice in our DNA, its all part of us because of God. Should one get drunk and ignore being a human being? The answer is that each and everyone is given the free will to choose, how to live our life. Being a CEO you just can’t ignore the fact why you are created as a human being so before picking up the weapons to kill other human beings remember God lives in all human beings. 

Life is a gift of God to human individual to enjoy while reciprocating, you can choose to become a priest, mullah or a monk but that does not give you the rights to force your choice on to others. Spiritually evolved individual becomes so humble that they don’t even judge others, never mind enforcing their personal beliefs as rules.

When you read a book you get a degree of masters, but each and every human being comes with the capabilities of writing to attain PhD so forcing them to confine and conform has the potential to back fire. 

Human society can not have rigid set of rules, because as we evolve the things change.

Since we always have the people evolving at different time, we have problems.

Some time visionary ideas are adopted by the people hundreds of years later even the provider of the idea have been killed just because he/she thought ahead of time. By accepting our evolving knowledge we become tolerant, humble and hopeful with the drink of God. If we get drunk even with God we have the potential to kill each other.

Our knowledge should help us to evolve but watching the news videos of Iraq and Syria makes me think we are devolving as individual’s commit the spiritual crimes on the name of religion and personal revenge. The love loss is the main driving force behind all the killings thus longer the conflict carries on, the more people lose loved ones and that perpetuates peace less life for all parties involved.

Religious societies inspire its individuals to fight without the fear of death so they promote the knowledge of the belief system which states that an individual lives only as long as his/her time is written by God. This not only gives fearless living, it promotes hope as well thus spiritually it can be good for the individual but great for the political leaders whom benefit from the sacrifice of the individual.    

 

Since we are intertwined with lot of people like spouse, friends and family, as our time changes we drift apart, that is a love loss and in order to deal with any kind of loss we should have some kind of knowledge which makes it easier to carry on living. If you believe in that one’s time was up by God, it can bring peace regardless of the loss. If you don’t believe in time is up you can carry a lot of burdens of life on your shoulders at any given time. These beliefs are there to help us cope with those burdens. Popularity of God, religions and their sects are clear signs that we need the systems of living to help us cope with life’s difficulties. Communism only survived only seventy years yet religions have been around for thousands of years, one can choose to understand why or not.

The perception is a very power full tool against lot of our every day problems, so no one should claim their way is the only way, if you perceive it should be all spiritual based. When you mix or even use perceptions politically you could be proven wrong with the counter arguments. 

You can make a statue of God and worship or make a statue of the Devil and throw stones at it, pray to an invisible God or put some one in between like prophets, either way you are perceiving just like every body else thus you are in the same vicinity so if you drink the alcohol of God it should stay as a social drink, if you get drunk on a too much of a good thing you still are drunk and can be destructive to yourself and the others around.

Since the love loss is the major dead dog, don’t rob others of love they will try to do the same and you both stray from the evolution which is the right path chosen by God for us. We have to reach to our potential as humanity, and humanity can’t move ahead with the dead individual’s input.

The allusiveness of God is a clear enough reason for the human being to pursue the potential, it is to bring the human being to full potential. If your hand is always open to God and you are always bagging you actually are going against God’s Will because you have given up the ability and free will to solve your personal problems. The time to ask for help is when you cannot solve your problems on your own with the tools you have been given and yes it is your fiver (read five bucks). The journey towards potential requires for us to dig deeper inside of ourselves to evolve.

This is the very reason God created us with an evolutionary nature, so we can reach the potential that was meant for us. As we evolve, our brain is continuously making more and more neurons and their connections. How far are we destined to go?. Can we stop creating limitations for ourselves and dive into the spiritual realm of our potential, its all up to us as a humanity. 

When we reach our full potential that is when we will be able to understand all the Unknowns. Until then we have a journey. During the journey we cannot look at our current level of knowledge as 100% truth, regardless of where it is coming from. Regardless of how passionate we feel about this knowledge, it can change tomorrow due to our evolutionary nature just look at our computers, cell phones, self driven cars and planes. With our limited knowledge we can make decisions to choose extremes, yet the wisdom of God calls for balance. As we follow the wisdom of God we come closer to our potential and thus to God, so if you ask me about the path to God I will say follow and evolve to your potential individually so the humanity evolves with your evolution. 

For me today’s truth can change as I evolve to understand more. I can respect the divine knowledge of the holy books, but I can’t trust my evolving nature. Not only is it my responsibility to learn the real truth hidden in the words of holy books I need to learn to read in between the lines as well. I have to have the CEO vision which can help me to strain out the politics and human’s insecurity related interventions, that the holy books are tainted with.

Picture an onion with different and colorful layers. If you cut it, the mixing of the colors creates a confusing color. You have to peel one layer at a time in order to understand the wisdom of colors. Each layer teaches, how to reach the truth, but it is not the truth because there is more to learn thus every step we take in the evolution of our understanding of the truth is not complete.

If you find contradictions within yourself and you are not sure about your knowledge, you have to understand that life is like an onion. You can’t cut the onion, you must peel it one layer at a time. In this state of mind you can not choose the extreme, because you don’t know the real truth of the final layer. If you have not reached and learned about the final layer, you can’t claim that you know everything about all the colors. You can’t claim that you have seen the divinity and you know everything there is to know, by peeling only a few layers of knowledge or by cutting the onion because mixed up colors give you the confusion. The holy books may contain the truth, but like the layers of onion we can’t understand everything unless we have reached our potential.

Choosing the extreme has nothing to do with God, his prophets or the books. Extreme actions in any area of life is based on the emotional and egotistical politics of sense of belonging or personal love loss.

( Exactly the opposite of God’s will because we are created to do God’s work. If everybody kills each other we take God’s meaning of existence away. A general without the army is not able to help.)

Imagine a family with little children and the parents are fighting to the point that they forget that children need them. If they kill each other what good it will do for the kids? We are taught and it seems that humans are the vulnerable ones, yet it is God who is getting hurt with our bickering. If we fight it hurts God. Literally God can’t help us if the work force is not there to do the job. This does not mean that God is in an inferior position. It’s equal in the the Divine Triangle.

This Divine Triangle is the base knowledge of my Blog and comprised of God, The Devil, and The Human. Every corner of the triangle has it’s importance and power to complete this Divine Triangle. Good without the bad, or human without the God does not complete the triangle, because without the third equation, good or bad both become meaningless and human without good and bad can’t serve the purpose of understanding of life, and yes no one should be able to flip the triangle..

God and the Devil are not some forces ‘out there.’ Other than the movies versions no one has seen the Devil or even God himself, you can say you have felt the presence but not seen  in real life. 

There is no way one can separate himself from God or the Devil to be able to see them as entities. You, the human, are the third equation of this triangle. Evolving to the level of the third equation is the only way you can see the human potential. Reaching that potential shows the triangle from the top where it is all one and the same.

We carry both polarities of God and Devil within us with the potential of extreme. Human can do things God can be proud of or commit the most heinous crimes that can put the Devil himself  to shame. Human can do good and bad things in the same lifetime, so there is no such thing as born to be bad or bad to the bone. We can’t write someone off as a bad individual, because people change with awareness. As human evolves, he/she can learn to balance both sides and achieve inner peace. This inner peace can manifest and spread into the world beyond the individual. Understanding self can help the individual to seek to create light in the dark room because he/she carries that beam of light within.

Knowing about the other side has been a quest for the human since the dawn of civilization, seeing the other side is not clear it is like the dark room and the object, if you want to know more about it, you have to evolve to you potential first. My optimistic hope is that human will evolve to the point to know God, if we don’t destroy our selves before reaching the potential. Rushing and ripping the paper to pursue is a human thing it’s not God’s doing, there is a wisdom to our evolution and that particular speed toward the journey is crucial wisdom.

The knowledge we have today is coming from different directions just like beams, or another example is that our brain is like an ocean and the knowledge keeps pouring in from all directions like rivers, it is up to us how to mix and match to function in our individual lives. The influences of sense of belonging can be over powering, that is why we bow down to our pride and ego, in spite of being educated.

Since we are not created angels because they just have to obey and serve God, we have to take responsibility of the animal side of our nature as well. We are not designed to be obedient 100% of the time. Human is different than angel, so human has to live like a human. Being human is not inferior – we actually are superior to angels, so why are we trying to demote ourselves to emulate them. Angels serve God without the temptations and we surpass them when we do a good deeds in the name of God because we always have temptations.

 

Every day there are new discoveries are made, practically in all departments of our life. If we say that our knowledge has been completed. How can that be possible?  

Personally it is clear to me, that we are an evolving organism, we have come a long way and there is still a long way to go to achieve the potential.

We use to kill each other over a piece of meat or a female, unfortunately, after all the civilization we still do that, just we have become more sophisticated in doing so, we cover our tracks with the politics and hide behind God and the Devil. We use God and the devil’s name to make us look good and the others bad.

Problem 1: Weak, insecure individual

Problem 2: Imbalance between our sense of belonging and sense of freedom.

Problem 3: Ego, honor, pride, and respect of ancestors – holding onto the past and resisting change.

I believe if something is not proven or clearly understood it should not have the power of law and order. To enforce a law upon a general population, you must have clearly understood and described rules, not ethics, morals and courtesies masquerading as rules and laws.

There are hundreds of societies and each society has people who belong to different schools of thought. If every group has its own way of living there will be a chaos, just like the jungle, where the animals mark their territories. We all from individual to family to society to nation to religions feel that we are above the animals yet our actions are no different than a baboon. If left alone we rob each others from materiel things to love, sure not every one is a bad apple and not all nations and the religions commit spiritual crimes but just look around now and even in our history and prove me wrong. 

Today’s news said that in the last five years four hundred thousand human individuals have been killed, looking at it with the baboon logic they can’t practically kill even if they wanted to. What is this all about? Are we worse than the baboons? As humans we need rules not only for the individual but as communities, nations and religions as well.

There is a need for an authority which can have a justice system and police force to keep all the nations and religions in check so they don’t commit the crimes against the individuals. By looking at the physical globe, it has no physical  boundary lines and its a home for all of us, there is no where else to go unless we find another earth, but if we don’t learn to live with each other with all the differences we are going to take our baboon attitude where ever we go.

So far logically there is only one home for all of us because there are no political lines. We have been creating more and more lines on the name of peace we have even created walls to avoid conflicts but our problems like internet and infectious diseases can’t be in the boundaries thus we need to evolve sooner the better. To control and create peace in a society, we need the umbrella rules of justice based on the equal human individual rights for the world that go beyond the differences of ideologies even the groups, nations and the countries.

The new paradigm is equal human rights thus the united nation has to have a clear mandate, justice system with the police force not like today. All talk but no actions, especially when it comes to the veto holding countries. I understand in a complex world like today it would be impossible to enforce an international order, but as an individual if we all shift our sense of belonging from a group, to humanity as one entity, there is hope.

If the individual is educated it can become easier, thus the education should be free and essential to all individuals in the world. If the individual is spiritually educated enough he/she can even cross the lines of their respected nations and religions on the name of humanity.

It can be done if we all, as an individual become a CEO, he/she has the potential to change the world of politics we live in. Donald Trump said he loves the uneducated people it is because politically they can be swayed and talked into building walls even this day and age when we need to come together not only to fight against poverty, hunger and infectious diseases like Ebola and Zika we have to learn to get along without going to wars. In today’s world any problem of the world is everyone’s problem, you just can’t live in the boundaries or iron dome.   

I am an idealist and want the physical globe without the political lines, which may not be possible in my life time but I see all the signs of global unity. From space station to internet to fighting together against the infectious diseases with unity or even dealing with natural disasters and refugees. Its all pointing towards the potential where we all can understand we are cells of humanity and we have a duty to work for the well being of the humanity to reciprocate and evolve to our potential instead of robing each other of love. 

All laws are supposed to be created to bring peace and order in human societies, but the enforcement of the rules highly depends on the individual because he/she is the best regulator of the inner turmoil. If the peace is achieved by force, it is fear-based and fear-based peace will always be temporary. Out-dated rules have to constantly match with human evolution; otherwise we will always be killing each other just like we have been. We need to grow and evolve socially and spiritually in accordance with science and technology. Since we are still evolving, our knowledge can not be one hundred percent true. 

Unfortunately in every corner of the world human has been passionately and egotistically claiming that our knowledge is complete and better than others. We have been constantly learning more and marching towards our ingrained potential regardless of the ridiculous notion of complete and better knowledge. One can be technologically advance but illiterate in social interaction, or the other way around. This hollow kind of completeness should be enough to make everybody moderate, but the phenomenon of belonging is so powerful, that it trumps the logic and makes even educated people choose the extreme.

Attaining PhD or university degrees are not enough to find personal security beyond the sense of belonging, because it is embedded in the spirituality. Since religions promote sense of belonging and not sense of individual freedom that makes religions and God vulnerable to human politics, which has the power to pollute and confuse the human regardless of the level of education.

Since our knowledge of God is incomplete. It cannot be fully understood regardless of what the religions say, until we reach our full potential, we are the slaves of assumptions. In order to reach our potential, we have to begin to shine the lights of our individual spirituality. Our whole being, our brain, heart and the body are used by that consciousness residing in each and everyone of us. That consciousness is that spark of the divine from which our spirituality comes from. This is the area where we have differences of opinion. That is the Dark Room. If we are not evolved yet to understand it completely it is a lack of awareness it is not a fault, unless we start to use our assumptions as rules, ethics and morals thus, we should not let our ego, pride and sense of belonging compel us to fight and kill each other. These have been creating conflicts, and killing us right from the beginning of our history. We forget that Dark Room in which we are only a work in progress.

 

 Please ignore the English and stay focused on the content.

 

 

Common knowledge is that God can do anything and everything what is not possible for human beings, that is why the prayers are common in all religions. Our desires and hopes are connected with God since the dawn of the civilization, yet we always see the most successful people usually put more efforts in their everyday living. What does that mean, should one assume that everything is done by the individual efforts? or why not everyone who prays get their desires met? Does that mean God follows favoritism? If you seek the right answer you will end up in the zone of assumptions, I don’t want to assume or question how God’s world function but I want to defend God from all the blames of an ordinary Joe, who can easily blame God for not preventing the disasters, letting the enemy forces win, whom rape and kill the innocents, even they have been praying and calling for help.

It is not wise to blame God or even the Devil, because by thinking that way you are making the human insignificant. Purpose of my writing is to inspire the individual to see him/herself as an integral and main part of the bigger picture. We all should start to look back in the history and see the importance of the human individual in all the advancements humanity has made. Sure the oxygen factor matters, but it is all the physical efforts of the individual what makes the difference.  If you understand the equal reciprocation you have already reached the wisdom, what is important for one to live this living life comfortably but responsibly.

That is where you should stand, now the question is where do you think you stand as an individual?  

We are learning about the human and animal rights, gender equality, all kind of discrimination and it is all possible because we have an evolutionary nature, just look back in the history you will understand what I am talking about.

Some may make you think that you are an insignificant being and you have nothing to contribute in Godly responsibilities. Some even say that you are born a sinner, regardless of your character and actions of your life. I believe in not guilty until proven guilty, where did it start, how is it possible and why this knowledge has been so powerful that makes a human being so insignificant. I can’t find any spirituality in this knowledge, all I feel and sense, is the politics of power and control behind all the rhetoric.

Why are we evolving? The answer is that God manifests and expresses himself through the man kind, and in order to help and reach every victim and learn to deal with all kind of natural disasters, we all have to evolve. We already are able to save lives by predicting the paths of natural disasters, time may come we would be able to prevent what we are able to predict but we have to pursue vigorously and continuously to evolve. Any kind of knowledge which holds the human back from evolving is not working with humanity or God is political. Every controlling rule from any entity, whether it be nation or a religion is political. For a nation to have political system is essential but a religion as a political system, just does not cut it because God is the foundation for the religions and we don’t have anything concrete about God thus we can’t  use God in our political system. We need clearly written laws on the base of individual and equal rights.  

If you are taught by the religious but political leader, that God has the ultimate power they may be right, but their claim has to explain God first. The understanding that God is some kind of foreign power does not make sense to me personally because it makes man an inferior part of the puzzle. Always remember ants or bees live as a social community just like us, but we are created differently because each and every one of us can individually think, act and manifest life of choice with free will.

We put lot of efforts in life to evolve and we do it automatically as if we are hypnotized. We excel and demote ourselves by our own efforts, why do we disregard the external pressures of religious and political orders. So the question arises why do we put so many efforts in our evolution? is it because that is the real natural order by God, spirituality and humanity?

Our dancing with the natural rhythm has a strong reason and that is, that we are programed to evolve by our nature so no human knowledge is written in the stone whether it’s religions or any constitution of any government, any medical or scientific discovery, they can help in the evolutionary process but are never complete.

You can argue egotistically because of the strong sense of belonging to your belonging group but the facts remain the same. We are faced with new discoveries everyday and they bring new problems as their side effects. We constantly have to evolve to deal with them, for example the internet brought us a lot of comfort but new type of crimes as well. If you look at the contributors of human evolution, two thing stay persistent, you will see that they are not just coming from the religious ideologies, they are from all walks of life and they are all  from the human individuals.

If we look at our history we always have egotistically claimed that our knowledge is complete and better than others, even we have argued about the earth was flat. There is a tendency to fall victim to the egotistic level two, as the Dr. Wane Dyer said, that level two is about, “mine is better than you”, if everyone thinks their knowledge is better than the others and we passionately kill  each other over it, what about the evolution? The constant learning has not taught us yet, that our knowledge has not been complete, we still do the same regardless of the evolution. 

How much more do we need to know to change that? I believe that we need to know more about ourselves as an individual and our communities should have the responsibility to understand the long range side effects of our education systems. As long as we think and believe that our taught knowledge is correct and final, we will not be able to cross the boundaries created by our ancestors.

The first thing needs to be changed in the big picture of life, is the status of  the human individual. In the big picture, if you respect yourself as an important entity who is connected directly to the humanity and God’s wellbeing then, and only then you will be able to see others equal to yourself thus respect others as self.

If you believe that God is almighty and is some external entity, because of your insecurities you would like to have God on your side. When the religions preach that they are the way to God, you would join and believe blindly because of your authority figures and belonging group believes that as well.  Since you are taught and feel that God is almighty and helpful whenever you are in the need of God, God would be there to help you. My problem is with that education which is provided to the individual. Whether God would be there or not, my concern is what happens to the vulnerable individual if God does not show up when needed. If that happens often, most people will lose the real faith in God and personally I blame that to the education system.    

As an individual when you join a group whether it be a gang, community, race, gender, nation or a religion you have to make a deal. When you have a deal you do your job by abiding by the rules of the group and group has to provide the protection.

You pray, become obedient, sacrifice your time, efforts even your life if its needed. That deal makes you inferior, insignificant, deaf and dumb extension of a group. If we all have to follow the nature, then why do we have the ability to function, survive and evolve independently as an individual? If you look for the answers, you will find them in spirituality, where you are the part of God and God is part of you. If you become one with God your insecurities melt away from within, because you are no longer an extension of a human group ideology but become your reality.

Yes that is what you are, you  are able to predict when and where the storm is going to hit, and you don’t have to throw the virgins over the cliffs because God is angry with you. Whatever you have been taught, whether it be that you are insignificant or a born sinner, it is all about the politics of control and it’s you who gives power to other people just like yourself because of your insecurities.

It’s time to claim your CEO status.

Just like a seed with right kind of circumstances manifests itself to become a majestic tree to produce millions, billions or trillions of seeds with the ability to produce life. God has manifested himself to produce billions of us we can make God more productive, self -sufficient and evolutionary to help the humanity and God simultaneously. 

THE DISCRIPTION OF GOD.

The best example for God’s description is the relationship between our body and its cells. Since cells don’t have developed sense of vision they can’t see or imagine how the body looks like or how does it function. They have awareness and some what understanding of being connected to the body and the other self cells, but lack the understanding of everything thus sometime they attack each others.  This auto immune disorder is painful and is a disease. This is the same way we can’t see, smell, hear, or understand God but we can sense that we are connected to an entity. Just like cells get provided with the oxygen and nutrients to survive, we are living in an environment, which is randomly but smoothly keeping us alive until we have completed our living years.

Presumably if God is orchestrating the show one can ask about human sufferings, like starvation, poverty, and natural disasters. The answer is that as we are or our bodies are vulnerable to our environment along with our cells, God has his limitations until we reach a higher consciousness of our potential. Our lack of understanding is an arthritis to God, we call ourselves extremely evolved yet don’t understand what kind of pain we are causing to God. 

We have to understand the reasons why human and God is intertwined in human progress. Spirituality, religion or no religion one thing is clear that human is the main physical power behind all the Godly powers. We’ve grown from the history of throwing virgins over the cliff because we now know where the storm is going to hit, and we’ve come to an understanding that God won’t spite us.

Most religions have a perception about God, that God is all mighty and capable of doing anything and everything, that God is above all else, however, that anything and everything is human perception. God is dependent on our unity, physicality and evolution to our potential. If we get together, we can make God almighty; we can feed everybody and everything on the face of the earth, whether we save lives from natural disaster, or spiritually guide the world to inner harmony. We already have the potential but our politics from insecurities keeps us from doing that. We are the physical work horses of God so God’s strength and our strength depends on functioning of the humanity.

If we wrap our generations up with our traditions and customs related to our race, nations or religions, how can we move forward to resolve our differences? In raising your children as independent entities related directly to God and humanity and not to your small groups and their ideologies, we would then be able to create a pathway to another paradigm.

Sense of belonging to a group creates inferiority complex and related insecurities yet belonging to God and humanity as a whole is liberating. 

Only by bringing your personal sense of freedom to a place of inner balance, you would not put your sense of belonging above and beyond it. If you can deal with your inner turmoil and insecurities by creating balance, you would take charge and become a CEO. With this generational shift, you can live and raise your children fearlessly.

Each and every one of us is an extension of God and we all serve a purpose, we all have a duty and a life story. Just as the cells in the body. Just like nature provides its role to preserve the body, we each have an intricate part to play. To elaborate your role of life may not be exactly the same as your off springs, for instance if and when you can’t police your children all the time you have to learn to trust in their life story, it’s not only for yourself it is for your children as well because they are independent entities and eventually they have to fly solo.

In interfering as parents we install our perceptions and insecurities upon them and most religions preach that you should enforce religious education and even they promote physical punishments. You don’t want your off springs to be just like you, because you have been following the baggage from your ancestors, who has not yet created peace, proving itself ineffectively for thousands of years. If you want them to live in peace you have to learn to change the way you think. This way you, not only learn to believe and I mean really, really believe in God and would be able to find peace within yourself, you will carve a path and shift the paradigm for your coming generations.

If your coming generations learn that they belong to God and humanity, they would grow better sense of self, their insecurities would be far less than you, because you may think you are safe by belonging to a group of people. Any group of people is like a pond with limited space and clear boundaries, if you have grown up in a pond and you are exposed to the ocean, you will really fear from the ocean but when you think that you are the ocean yourself all the fears subside, yes even you start to live bravely, and better yet you can make even the ocean and the earth look like a planet if you rise up and take a look at it from the space. You can’t fear the vastness of the ocean or the space; you have to embrace it because that is what you belong to and are. Just think it is not the ocean or the space it is your ability to envision, and physically see.

You may think living and dying for your belonging group is bravery, but look closely it is all about the politics of sense of belonging and your emotional attachments. Stop living in the pond and become a part of the ocean. All human made isms and religions are equally guilty of making human worthless which gives all the glory to God, but in reality it gives the powers to the people just like you, who own the religions as a business. God can’t survive if there is no human and God’s work is not done either without the physicality of the human being, just like our cells can’t function or die whether it be because of disease or age, body dies as well.

Who came first God or the human the answer would be always an assumption because according all the religions God created human, and they put few thousand years of age to the planet as well, if that is the case how can you deny the fossils of dinosaurs and millions of years old remains of human.

Human evolved to the level of thinking that we became aware of  our evolving knowledge. Human has been around for millions of years, our evolution is dependent on our awareness and vice versa. Now it’s time to ask what came first God or the human? if you are confused, there is nothing wrong with that because our knowledge is not complete and we are not a finished product, the building is not complete yet, so don’t worry about the unknowns, accept and embrace your incomplete knowledge because, that is how you are going to grow and evolve to your potential. If you egotistically believe your knowledge is complete you would stop seeking thus would not evolve or progress to be what God had intended. 

God and Devil without the human are questionable, and as the ability to dig in for our potential rises we would learn more about the unknowns. Remember the cell depends on the nutrients and oxygen supplied by the body to function and the body survives on the integrity of the cell. God survives on the human individual’s physical, mental, psychological, emotional and spiritual health, because you just can’t ask a victim of the Alzheimer anything about God even if he/she had been a scholar of the religion. 

If you understand that God is deeply intertwined with humanity in such a way that is not completely understood, that makes all the human knowledge about God as human assumptions, holy or non- holy.

The concept of God and the Devil is so entrenched in human populations that we can’t seem to separate ourselves from it, regardless of our progress in all other areas of life. Most of our actions are labeled as Godly or Devilish.

I gave a fair shot to understand it, but my thinking makes me feel that I need more of the brain power or evolution to understand it. I could easily make a judgment like an atheist or a religious fnatic , but problem is that would be listening to my egotistic assumptions. I still can’t completely understand how our bodies work. Sure our knowledge is better than before, but I still have questions about the brain our brains can’t function unless someone installs data in it, if the brain is like a computer, then who runs the computer. Brain can think but where do the thoughts come from before the process? Is there an unknown entity resides inside the body to dictate what our brain should think? Why are we so vulnerable and resilient at the same time? Why do we dance with the music so passionately? And yes why do we kill and die so passionately over the religions? Is there a spot that music and religion touch to make us so passionate? When I see the girls screaming for the rock stars, I don’t understand but become curious.

Even if I don’t understand the dancing with the music, I can’t ignore one’s passion about it, but I feel the strong need to understand religious killings. If that entity in us is responsible for our actions, then why it does not stop the individual from committing crimes, is there another entity living within us and they fight against each other? That means God and the Devil are part of the human individual or the human is part of those entities. They are not out there as we have been taught and they are not the monsters, they are part of the each individual and yes we are still the one who calls the shots. That is why I believe we all are CEOs if not we are potential CEO’s of our individual lives. 

We can seek and pursuit the good and run from the bad, as the religious knowledge preaches, there is nothing wrong with it, until our good and bad start to change with our evolution. We use to buy and cell human beings, slavery was a way of life, we use to burn witches, kill homosexuals and human rights were non existent. Today even the pope is changing his tune about the human rights. When you are told that God and the Devil are the external entities and are making you do everything, by believing that you make the individual insignificant and meaningless. He/she can be herded like sheep, yet in today’s court , you are responsible of your actions, you just can’t say that you committed good or bad act because God or Devil made you do it. If you follow that path the whole justice system of governing the society falls apart. 

If human looks inward and takes care of internal affairs by balancing the inner battle by assuming the responsibility of a CEO he/she becomes the third equation which he/she is. He/she would be less fearful and more responsible for his/her actions, we inherited the responsibility of our actions by receiving the free will.

If we start to kill the children of our enemies, whether the dispute is over the land or group politics, we are still committing the spiritual crimes. These spiritual crimes are not because of God or Devil; they are because of the individual’s actions under the influences of the politics of the sense of belonging, and yes it is the individual who is responsible, not only to balance God and the Devil inside, he/she is responsible to balance that sense of belonging with the sense of freedom as well.

As an individual it’s one’s responsibility to question everything regardless of how big it is, whether it’s God, Devil or sense of belonging they all needed to be put in perspective by the individual, and if you raise yourself to the level of a CEO, then you will have enough self-respect to conquer, even your inner passion which makes human to live like a puppet or an extension of an ideology.

If you deeply believe that you are connected to or being a physical part of God, you can create a fearless, resilient and hopeful life simultaneously. If you have a perception of God as some entity with a lot of power who can change your life and bring you comfort to become just like your God, you are asking to become God yourself. This desire stems from personal insecurities because you think that God has whatever you are lacking. These insecurities are founded on your comparison with others or even with God because of your knowledge that they have more power than you do. (read five bucks)

Sure God is perceived as almighty and capable to do whatever human can imagine. This education produces the result of human being as not being part of God, thus the power lies at somewhere else, beyond the human being’s grasp thus he/she has to beg for it. If we feel that power source is someone else, or other than us, we separate ourselves from the source.

As soon as we think we are not connected to something greater than us we could be engulfed by the fear and insecurities. Unfortunately our knowledge has been religious teachings which are out to make the human as an insignificant part of the puzzle and especially we are not part of God thus we should fear God. This way human being has been controlled throughout the history. I smell more human politics than real spirituality at work. Today it is a common knowledge that fears based control does not work.

If you believe that you are part of God, first of all you will start to gain self-respect, and then you would not live in fear of God.

Imagine God as a human body and you being a working cell, you both have mutual interest in each other, thus you need a peaceful relationship of reciprocation, because your very existence depends on the properly functioning of the body and body survives because of your functioning.

The concept of prayers, personal hard work and strong desire to flourish is in our genes, we are not only evolving as an individual we are helping in the evolution of God as well. Feeling of weakness comes from the disbeliefs of connection to the source. It seems natural because of the awareness of our physical realities but when you go to spiritual territory, you can see cells reproduction and death as part of life which should remove the fears and puts quality in everyday living.

If you lack spirituality in your belief system, you will get attached to anything which provides some kind of security. Group comes first in today’s politics, but the real security is in the believing of being a part of not only spiritual but physical part of God.

If you look at our resourceful and well off societies, you will find discontentment, anxiety and depression regardless of the comfortable living. The question comes to mind, is it because of the level of belief system? Believing in God and disbelieving in self or the other way around?

DUTY OR AN OPTION.

I may appear to bash the religions but I have nothing against the spiritual sides of any and all religions, my problem starts when the ethics and morals start to come out as rules and the politics of sense of belonging takes over the spirituality. Not only it taints the whole religious message it drives the ordinary individual to passionately commit spiritual crimes on the name of God.  I believe any belief system like religions should be there to help the individual to live life with inner peace regardless of all the personal turmoil. The need of the belief systems has been is and will always be there because it does help the individual to sail through the difficulties of life with hope and positivity, but it is all because of the spiritual side of it. The political side of every religion however is to be blamed for the unaccountable, death and destruction to the innocent individuals throughout the history and even the present days as well.

The knowledge provided by the religions is great for the individual to grow as a spiritual being, but when this politically tainted knowledge makes the human being inferior and valueless, I start to question the politics of not one but all religions. Nonetheless knowledge is knowledge and I learnt some good stuff from religion as growing up as well. One of the thing I learnt was that if some good advice is coming to you, even if it is written on a quite wall take it because one day it may come in handy.

I went to the Friday prayers to a mosque which was not in my neighbourhood, I specially went out of my way to listen to one of the Mullah. Molaana Ajmal was one of the religious personality but with some substance.  I liked his logical explanations to Conway his messages I may have developed some disagreements now but I liked his style of teaching. One day he was talking about the knowledge adaptation and its speed. I use his analogy to explain muscle building to my clients.   I would use his words may not be exact because it was a long time ago, but the message was clear because I am  still talking about it.

He said and I” Quote”

” Take a newspaper and try to put your finger through it but without ripping the paper, if you try, it will rip the paper but if you take a pin and start to make pin holes, then it will allow you to put the finger through without ripping the paper” end quote.

The logic is clear, if you bring in the knowledge gradually you will not only understand, you will retain it as well. We send kids to schools to learn, and schools have grade systems to educate them. In order to understand and adopt the knowledge we all have different rate or speed of absorbing and understanding the knowledge given to us.

Today my understanding is that the religion is and should be all about the spirituality and pure of the politics of sense of belonging. To go further I believe every thing we do out of the religions should be optional, but the actions related to spirituality should be our duty.

Today humanity and spirituality has taken a back seat and have become optional, yet the traditional prayers, where people gather have transformed into duties, personally I believe whenever there is a human gathering it brings politics, so if you look at the importance of the prayers it should never supersede the practical help to the needy in real life.

Conformation to a subservient individual, needs one thing for sure and that is brain washing, and if the individual feels insecure from with in and is far from being a CEO, then the knowledge of the religions can be hard to contain into a department of life. We have given religions, the power to override love of self and even the love of our off springs, because it is strongly related with the sense of belonging to a group beyond the immediate family. In real life the strong and out of control sense of belonging can actually exaggerate personal insecurities. These insecurities can take the individual even further from God and spirituality by him/her committing spiritual crimes for the belonging groups, yet believing in God and being spiritual should help over come these individual short comings.

Today the top messages  of the religions like humanity and spirituality have sunken to the bottom of the list, if you situate yourself outside of the sense of belonging, only then you will be able to see the real damage done to the human individual by the politics of the human beings.

Ordinary man is straying from God and spirituality because even God’s real messages have been muffled in the politics of the sense of belonging to a group. Mixing politics of the belonging group and religions or even God has taken us away from God.

I feel the responsibility to explain that it is time, we all need to become a CEO of our lives, we need to learn to separate the sense of belonging and the politics of it from our religions because religions have no room for the politics of the belonging groups, if they are the real path to spirituality and God. God and spirituality is exclusively for the whole humanity not for some special groups.

Decency is taught only by the spiritual teachings, and humanity can help us individually and collectively to live with each other regardless of the differences in our races, groups, nations or religions. Only personal spirituality helps us to cross the lines of our personal prejudice. If the spirituality is taken by each and everyone of us to the point that we make our decisions spiritually, then it can be clear to understand why even God had to write more than one book? Our journey towards our full potential needs stimulation and for us to dig in deeper and reach for the heights, in the ways God has meant for us human beings. This is the time to decide to come out of our pigeon holes and take a look at our individual actions critically, if they are under the influences of out of control politics of the sense of belonging, the individual should start to take individual responsibility to become a CEO. 

Sense of belonging and group politics have tainted all the religions to the point, that an ordinary individual can’t see the politics behind the rules and actions of the religions and is unable to separate religion from politics and or spirituality. God may have taken the responsibility of the knowledge of life by providing the oxygen to us but the politics of the insecure human still is able to meddle with even the basics.                    

There is certain wisdom of common sense which every human carries with in, and some time this wisdom can be used by the wise ones. I saw a movie a long time ago so I don’t remember the title, that is why I would say author unknown. 

Buddha was meditating on the bank of a river for a long time to the point that he was starving but determent to carry on with his quest. Since without the physical body spiritual quest is harder to attain and manifest in physicality of life, so he was physically suffering, thus it was hard to carry on. One day there were two men going by in a boat. One was playing music and the other was rowing. The musician stops the music and says to the rower, that if you tighten it too much it will snap on you, but if you don’t tighten enough it won’t play the music, he was talking about the cords but the massage was clear so Buddha understood the wisdom that can not only be applied as wisdom of serious issues like Buddha was facing it can be applied to all departments of our lives as an ordinary human being as well.  

Looking at the history, we find that our extraordinary knowledge has been coming from the ordinary human beings as well. It is not exclusive to the Prophets, when I say extraordinary knowledge it is not confined in the religious boundaries.  We have scientific, mathematics and medical discoveries made by the ordinary men and women but they helped the humanity to the point that we can’t count how many lives have been saved by them.  Only the extraordinary knowledge makes an ordinary human being into extraordinary one. It is an ongoing process, and is not going to stop until we reach our potential. There will always be differences of opinions and the passion that makes us claim that we are right.

 

Today every religion and their denominations have a book just like that, every nation has a constitution, that makes a lot of different texts and a whole lot of different human societies. All religions, their denominations, socialism, communism and even democracies are touted as the fix it all. There are several systems that humans created and even more than one text from God is available for us to compare and follow. Having a passionate opinion about any one system in favor or against, and disability to amend all the religious books is claiming that humans are not an evolving organism thus they should follow the rules written thousands of years ago. 

History shows it, science proves it, and even an ordinary human being sees and understands it, the good old evolutionary nature. I personally disagree with rules carved in the stones, because human beings are the evolving organism so is our knowledge, thus our rules of the past need amendments in all texts whether it be a constitution or religion.

I believe every human knowledge should be for the convenience of the human beings, because that is what is needed for peace as we progress and evolve. Unfortunately the human input is mostly based on emotional and passionate politics of sense of belonging. If it is all about the control and the politics of it, it should stay out of the individual’s spirituality, it should not have the power to change anyone’s personal and direct connection to God.

No one should be forced to believe in anything which is not concrete or proven scientifically and as an evolving beings nothing is concrete for us especially when it comes to knowledge of before and after living years. These days Canadian Natives have been asking pope to apologize for the wrongs done to them on the name of God or religion, whatever had been done to them was out of the politics of spreading the religion by recruiting them to Christianity. Anything by force even if it is religion is a spiritual crime. Apology may not be enough because I believe as an ordinary individual everyone should know what is wrong by following simple rule of thumb. If you don’t like getting done to you don’t do to the others. 

When you want to climb higher on the ladder of society, and you meet the hurdles, you will feel the need for God. Since the human’s journey to the potential is ingrained and inevitable, we can never be satisfied about life’s successes and bounties. This makes us look at life as a mountain and this mountain has to be climbed collectively because as an individual, we all run out of time.

Today where we stand is less than the quarter of the way to the peak of the mountain, it is because of our nature to climb and pursuit our potential, we stopped the sacrifice of the virgins for God. Yet still most religions want us to work against our genetic makeup. There are two things that come to mind – either religions are there to make us slow down the climb to the right speed and tempo, so we can adopt and progress without ripping the paper of adoptability, or simply they are authoritarian and fear based political systems and are power hungry trying to control the human individual, even using God as political tool with the fear of God.

My personal logic says that God created mankind with the evolutionary nature thus we need to follow that potential, so fear of God would be against God’s will. You can choose to join in the progress and break the strict religious rules or you can stay behind and deny what life has to offer to you and your coming generations by the evolving human intellect, you can’t just be selective use all the progress made by the liberals and choose to be conservative.

When group politics takes over or invades a religion, it has everything to do with the human insecurities and nothing to do with God, because if you really, really and I mean really believe in God you just can’t be insecure of the future because the belief system is actually there to help us believe optimistically and fearlessly. God created human with an evolutionary potential, to me this evolutionary potential strongly suggests that the individual has individual spirituality and a direct connection with God as well. It may not make any sense to the weaker individual but a CEO would understand what I am talking about.

Religions are secondary because they are groups, and always talk about the group interest, regardless of their basic messages of humanity and spirituality, they have not been and still are unable to separate spirituality of the religions from the politics to go a little further they just could not put the com together with passion. Tolerance and acceptance have gone with the wind a long time ago, or I should say right from the beginning. The organized religions have always been tainted with the politics of sense of belonging to one group thus they rob other groups of love on the name of God.

Sense of belonging can be dangerous unless we understand it, the real sense of belonging is to the whole humanity and one individual at a time but never to just a certain group of people. No one can claim that they are especially related to God thus should get special treatment, like going to heaven. 

If you kill your daughter because she is not following the rules of your religion, it has nothing to with your faith, God, spirituality or even the religion, it is all because you surrendered yourself to the power of sense of belonging and rejected a CEO status which was granted to you by God. Behind your actions, the all mighty and powerful sense of belonging was at work. The egotistic attitude is related to the community; you care too much about, even more than your love and responsibilities to your daughter. If you care too much about how people think about you, it is because of your honor, your ego and pride. You owe yourself an explanation where all these feelings come from. If you dig in a little deeper you will find that they are all the side effects of an uncontrolled sense of belonging. I would say to you, you should always remember that people have a place in your life but they don’t have a say because you are blessed with the free will directly from the God. No religion, or ism have given you that. They may want to rob you of your free will, but it is still your right to use it when you have to create balance to do the justice to all including your daughter and yourself.

When I left Pakistan I wanted to try to make sense out of the actions of the extremists and my experience with them. As I developed a habit to think and find the causes of the problems, I discovered that the influences of group politics on the actions of individual if rampant in all cultures, nations and religions.

It is not my intention to cast doubts on one’s faith or beliefs. My purpose in writing all this is to declare that it’s time for us as an individual to rise up to the potential that God really meant for us. We should be able to stand up and say no to violence and the extremes of our group politics which has over taken our belief systems. Today, more than ever in our human history, we need to reach for the core knowledge of the religions: compassion, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and altruism for the whole humanity on the name of God and spirituality.

Obeying God is not just following what is written in the Holy books. Discovering and pursuing our ingrained potential is the real obedience to God, because the purpose of creation is to see it functioning at the highest level of potential not confined in the jar like seeds.

Our reaching to that level, that God had meant for us requires our relentless pursuit – some time obeying, some time disobeying and some time down right rejecting God’s existence altogether. Since we are an evolving organism we will go through lots of rights and wrongs before we get it right.

At our highest level of potential we will be a creature of might, and that makes God even more almighty, so as we rise we make God even more valuable, contrary to the popular belief, that if human becomes powerful he/she does not need God. Any human that denies or makes God inferior, is under the influence of the ego and ego is a child of the sense of belonging.  One should personally know that if he/she is trying to fit in, be accepted or want to impress or be admired, all these actions are caused by the strong sense of belonging . One can openly deny God’s existence but deep inside  knows about the incomplete knowledge and personal vulnerabilities.   

Being a breath away from death should keep every one of us humble, but we often forget how vulnerable and fragile we are we take pride in every action and achievement as our doing yet that all is done after we have taken in that little oxygen. We have no control on the oxygen supply and what happens in the space; and interestingly enough we don’t even have control on whatever happens in our inner space either so being alive is not done or kept by the human individual alone. It’s a lot more than what is inside or out there and especially, it is not just a matter of chance, it’s our ability to see and understand what makes God, God and a human, human. 

Understanding Self Worth, and Potential.

If you look at your self as a little seed in which millions of you can fit a jar or in a small room, an inferiority complex can take hold of you, but if you envision yourself potentially as a big tree even at present you are just a seed, the room becomes smaller for you, your confidence builds and even God will help to create more room for you as an individual. 

Just like a little seed, with the right circumstances you can become a majestic tree which produces billions or trillions of seed itself. Humans have the potential to reach the heights that God intends for us.

The higher the ordinary human climbs, the closer we get to our Godly potential. Even one Godly man can help the community to evolve. As there are more people evolving into wisdom, ideally the community should function better with evolution.

Human traits are admired when they are expressed by the individual, bravery, honesty and selflessness is common in even non – religious societies. On the other hand organized religions become so tainted with group politics that they become destructive. These traits are talked about in the religious societies but politics overpowers the Godly messages. The individual is looked at as a little seed and discouraged or denied the potential contained therein, just look around most religious societies inhibit female liberation. There actually is forced social control with strict rules and harsh punishments accepted by the general population. Just recently Indonesia has denounced the valentine day for its population.  

Regardless of thediscouragements by the authorities, it is the individual who comes up with the ideas of human advancements. These are those individuals who did not think of themselves as just the seeds. Whether they, be a Prophet, an inventor or a conqueror, the individual human has always been a back bone of all the advancements of the human community.

Today’s politics related religious wars, and education systems of different schools of thoughts have taken human beings to the highest level of insecurity. The sense of belonging to belonging groups has come to the forefront and individual and human rights are taking a back seat.

When we are not the victims of personal insecurities only then we can stand up and talk about the sense of freedom knowing that we can be punished for this act. These days even advanced human societies are choosing extremes to fulfill the political needs of the belonging groups. The people whom have been exposed to the freedom find it hard to sacrifice their freedom for the sense of belonging. Sense of belonging has several faces but one cause. As an individual, digging deeper and asking your self questions, will eventually take you to the personal insecurities and weaker spiritual belief system.

God has blessed us all equally with the ability to benefit from believing in God. As a CEO it is our responsibility to choose the things that can help us to live a happy and content life but we have such a fear of death that we hate being mortal. We take the enjoyment out of our present day with the fear of the future out come, sure we are mortal and temporary so the life is never going to be secure and controlled for us, so trying to be secure and in control is not going to happen. Losing happiness over it is flawed individual and personal system of living.

We have loyalties to family, friends, community, country, religion or the causes we value. When insecurity – related loyalties call for sacrifice we don’t even hesitate or question. We act because we know that we will be praised and appreciated.

Why do we put so much value in being accepted, admired or appreciated by the belonging community? This question should be asked to the self by each and everyone of us. 

This natural phenomenon needs to be explored and understood. Why do we fall for it as if we are hypnotized? Do we have the ability to come out of these influences? Can an individual think beyond the sense of belonging? Of course God created human to function perfectly as an independent entity, but the politically tainted social influences rob the individual of being an independent entity.

This God given CEO ability is not valued by human him/herself because of systematized education. If you read knowledge from a book, you have learnt, but if you think that you have the ability to write the book yourself, you are in alignment with your potential. Previously read books may not fulfill the demands of the thirst we all should carry if we start to think about our incomplete knowledge. The needs and demands for new knowledge should be the human’s destiny. If you deny yourself the search for new knowledge, you go against God’s will. God created us all with the right combination of ingredients. We all have the potential to be valuable majestic trees in the human jungle. We benefit from being in the jungle, yet we are beneficial to the jungle.

I believe that humans benefit from the oxygen provided by God, and God benefits from the human’s physical input. Spirituality alone is useless without the physicality of life. Group politics may change as we evolve, but at this time we are being harmed by it. Should we continue and follow our wrong education system? Or should we take a critical look at it as a CEO, who can recognize the sense of belonging hidden behind the individual’s insecurities and related ego?

It’s all, each and everyone of us, who must help humanity and make a difference with the findings of our lives and personal experiences. We all have the potential to be God’s messengers even if we are ordinary human beings.

All prophets have been blessed with knowledge to teach spirituality to humanity and for the people to live better than before. We have an innate ability to learn, make advancements and understand that it is a continuous journey to learn to live and be better than before.

The advancements in all areas of life require the continuous desire to improve. The extraordinary knowledge has always been available, but so did our stubborn sense of belonging and egotistic attitude. So choosing the right thing has never been an easy thing to do.

We are able to make our lives easier from hard physical work with our inventions and technology. Why can’t we use the same emphasis to learn about the sense of belonging, boundary lines of religions and even nationalism? Our pursuit to be better than before is a continuous journey and it has to be carried on in all departments of life simultaneously. That is why God created human as an evolving organism, so human can achieve the status that God really meant for human beings. Our nature to evolve is a sacred wisdom and we are still a work in progress. Until we reach our potential we have the responsibility to seek that potential. We have to carry on, to push towards it, religion or no religion.

Just like prophets everybody contributes to make humanity better than before. The trouble is the intention. If one is a great doctor but he/she is in the business just to make money and name, he is just a doctor, but if one is in it to make the difference regardless of money and status, he/she a healer and has higher spiritual status as an individual.

It is important to respect any body who is doing God’s work. Whether it’s an ordinary individual or God’s prophet they are all part of our journey, so we can be better than before. If we are still plagued with killing each other, we have to get better than this. Our following of any one particular religion is not going to take us there. It will have to be getting beyond the sense of belonging and becoming a CEO as an individual.

Since our understanding of right and wrong changes with our continuously evolving knowledge, it is clear that there is no right or wrong while we are going through this journey, we use to throw virgins over the cliffs, burnt widows with their dead husbands, bought and sold slaves, burnt witches killed homosexuals simply look around how much the human societies have changed. As an individual we can go back and forth, but collectively we are forging towards the potential. Progress is made by the individual thinkers, because they open the discussions and challenge the conventional wisdom in all subjects of life.

God is not like a human, no matter how similar or closely we are related, just like the seed and tree are not similar but similar. We can’t say that God thinks acts or feels like a human being. We use politics everyday in every department of our lives, but God is the real truth and nothing but truth. We may change with our understanding as we explore, but the truth of God is without any human politics thus is a spiritual truth the real problem is the human evolution. We are not there where we can claim to totally understand God because we are unable to access our full brain power. 

The journey to understanding God is and should be an ongoing quest. At the same time we have the responsibilities of every day living and tending to our basic survival. Our life as a CEO makes us follow our innate nature and the demands of everyday life simultaneously.

It’s easy to put everything on God or Devil’s shoulders and deny our responsibilities because we are taught by our governing systems smart politics. By making God and the Devil the main players, controlling religions made the individual insignificant with low self-esteem so he/she can be easily controlled. Today we have evolved to the point where as individuals; we are becoming confused by our own personal growth. As we grow we sense that we cannot be pushed around by the governing systems so in order to keep inner peace we have to become a CEO to do the justice to all the departments of our life including self.

It has always been the human being, who reaches for power and control, in the process using God and Devil’s name for political purposes. The general population goes with whatever makes sense, at a certain time, but as we step higher on the ladder of potential we are able to see things differently, today the equal human rights have been sweeping the glob and the conservative religious societies have to deal with inner turmoil.

The carrot and stick has been a teaching tool for us since the dawn of our civilization, religions have been using it extensively, but as we learn more with our evolution we are able to see, that it has been only a working strategy in the politics of control. Though it has its usefulness as a strategy, as every human tool is necessary at times; the truth is the truth. If you bring God’s or Devil’s name into your politics, it is still a politics. When you use God’s name in a spiritual context it is nothing but the truth but as a human being who is a work in progress, our perception of truth changes as we grow intellectually. God in our current version of the truth may not be the right politics, so killing each other over it should be illegal regardless of the religious beliefs.

Getting people to do things by using fear – based or greed – based politics is not God’s way. Even if we label God with human – like traits, still God does not belong in the politics of human beings. For the sake of human evolution God has been quiet even when we are giving God a bad name. As an individual the presence of God in our life is needed to take care of our sorrows and give us hope to carry on. Too much of God slows or even stops the journey of evolution, which is the main purpose of human creation. When we stop digging in for our potential, we go against God’s will. God would love to see us at the highest level of our potential because who would not want to see their creation as a finished product.

If you need to control the society, you say, there is the law, but when you say the words are God’s words, I feel the need to disagree because God does not have the need to secure and control.

Though encouraged by all societies pride and bravery are not the only jewels worn by the CEO. He/she wears much more than that, because a human being is not a warrior ant or a worker bee. The knowledge of a CEO spreads beyond the animal side of our nature. The human side contains the continuously evolving ability to gain knowledge. We are much more than instinct; we are a self – adjusting, decision – making machine. We have the ability to over -power our animal instincts but we need those instincts in our everyday life as well. It is not one or the other; it is the balance we should seek. The balance of sense of belonging and freedom can teach us how to deal with ego, pride, revenge or self – sacrifice and bravery.

 

God is immortal and spiritual, there is nothing like human, but human always try to put a human face on God. If you look at the human cells they don’t look like human, we may be are complete working organism but we are the cells of God, we carry a little of God in each one of us, just like our cells carry a DNA of the organism they belong to.

Since religion is an education system for us, we have to get our priorities in order. The knowledge is a system of life implanted in people’s brains, and no knowledge is more important than the individual him/herself.

Life of an innocent is worth a lot more than all the religions put together, because all religions regard justice for all. Importance of the religion is based on the individual’s need of spirituality and connection to humanity. Humanity is consistent only with the individual because the individual is a cell of the humanity.

Everyday cells dies in the body, it may seem so insignificant, but the importance of the cell is crucial. Body’s survival depends on the health of cells and the cells are dependent on the body’s perfect functioning. If we disregard the human life and carry on killing each other, it’s not a collateral damage; it has the potential to destroy the trust of people thus the belief system.

I don’t agree with the people whom go digging in the past to find something to hang on about the glory of their own religion or the clan or smear dirt on the other people’s religions. Since we are in a journey to evolution we have been proven right and wrong about every thing in life. We still live in the past stories, hate each other and even kill over it. If you think it’s important to hold on to the stories, I would say it is even more important to make today’s story right, so the children of the future would stop killing each other.

Human has always been involved in the politics of the belonging group. I just want the human to take the next step and start to think about the present. Rise up to take responsibilities of a CEO. We can have differences as an individual, gangs, countries, religions or the divisions of religions, but as an individual, it’s time to stand up as a CEO, to put every thing in prospective. Understand today’s demands for humanity even if you have to deny your own groups demands.

Humanity is the most important aspect of spirituality and the spirituality is free of religious boundaries. Sure religions have enlightened us to know the spirituality and the humanity, but today religions are tainted with the group politics, and can’t get us out of our problems, so it is time, for us to take the next step and think that humanity and spirituality need to be put over and above the group politics, sense of belonging and the revenge of personal loss. It is hard but it can be done if you raise your self to the status what God had given you to begin with. Yes you are the eternal CEO; don’t demote your self.

God has blessed the human with the free will. Which makes human the CEO  of his/her personal empire and that power is worth five spiritual dollars (Read Five Bucks). This Godly power is great for the human individual if he/she can stay clean from the group politics. With the politics we are taught that five dollars worth is nothing, what makes every one feel meaningless and poor with out the group, this creates personally weaker individuals whom think they can’t survive without the group so we are reduced to the sheep, we follow our group regardless of right or wrong. Each and every one of us is created with the potential to be a CEO whom can say no to the wrong when it’s wrong. Deeper belief and personal connection to God can free the individual from inferiority complex pushed by the belonging groups and religions.

Human being is not just the slave of genetics; we are a complex bundle of Godly powered organism, influenced by the several aspects of knowledge. From spirituality to conflicting senses like sense of belonging and sense of freedom, to a powerful CEO who can over ride all the above.

Most religions are connected to some past stories, and they keep giving us the references of the past. If you always solve today’s problems with the past rules, you are bound to fail. From slavery to human sacrifice to homosexuality, religions have failed us miserably. You can’t close your eyes and blindly deny the problems of injustice of human rights, and hope they will go away and solve themselves on their own.

If one’s knowledge is limited about the genetics or choices, no one should have the power to kill just because some one is black, white, brown yellow, red, homosexual or belong to certain nation or religion.

Religions taught us about the tolerance and the extreme at the same time, sense of belonging and sense of freedom, the totally opposing senses are promoted by the groups, yet discouraged us to be a CEO.

These contradictions have the power to confuse even the highly educated individuals, so today highly evolved human with the nuclear bombs, is torn apart and don’t know how to separate spirituality from the group politics. If you as an individual become a CEO, you will see the humanity only lights up with the spirituality, not with the religions or nationalism, because spirituality can’t be tainted by the politics, sense of belonging, sense of freedom, land dispute, national pride, personal ego or the revenge for the loved one.

How can we solve our problems with spirituality, well we have tried every religion, ism, and democracy, did we succeed? No, not yet, because we are still looking for what is in it, for me or us philosophy, as an individual or a group, when we reach to the point where we can say, what can I do for you? things will change dramatically just like Ebola was controlled by the joint efforts, space station is built by the humanity as a whole.  

Religion is a chip planted by the parents and the society we are born in or belong to, so we can be different. Being different stimulates the individual to be competitive, which helps the people to excel, evolve and dig deeper to seek the potential. Reaching the potential is a quest and responsibility to all of us, but being competitive can be destructive if you take it to extreme. How can we plant the seeds of prejudice in every individual,  group, nation, culture and religion, and expect it to grow into a peaceful gentle and evolved human being? We have to bring back the spirituality in our religions and get the politics where it is needed in our governing systems. It is up to the individual where he/she should fit the religion and in what form, duty or an option, whether it should be a political system or a spiritual path to inner peace. Should one live as a sheep or a CEO? it is not a question for me but I would like every one to ask this question to yourself. If you feel that you want to save a spot in the heaven always remember God is not to be bribed and committing spiritual crimes in the name of God is not only political it is down right criminal.

Please ignore the English and stay focus on the content.

Every human society promotes that they are better than others, even this knowledge is given to the kids by the families.  When the knowledge comes form the authority figures like parents, teachers and leaders of the nations and religions it is ingrained as the correct and indisputable doctrines. Whether we do it for our self esteem or in order to inspire our generations to be competitive and successful or for any other reason.

Personally I believe, it means we have a flaw in our education system. If we want to have our present or coming generations to live any differently, then we have to look at the long range effects of our teachings – be it from our national school systems or religions. If we are going through the changes all the time how can we settle for any of our knowledge to be one hundred percent correct.  

Human beings go through different stages of growth,  even each individual goes through their hormonal flood zone, at puberty. At that stage of development they are very vulnerable to influences. They really believe that what ever our elders say is ultimate truth, and we as an individual are there to protect that knowledge. That is when young people take the message home, that they are better than others, which clearly is the foundation of the prejudice and the cause of all the injustices and related conflicts.

At one time, people believed that earth was flat. The trouble is not whether some thing is really true scientifically, the real troubling fact is that people follow their belonging groups knowledge without questioning and deny the opposing groups knowledge without researching.

Are we really better than others? If we get cut we all bleed and hurt the same way. We are all born same way, with the same abilities and same as others we all live in a body which gets old and dies.

What happens to us when we die? It is as mysterious now, as it was thousands of years ago. Regardless of all the religious assumptions about life before birth, after death and or afterlife. One fact stays consistence that we leave the physical body behind and we still have not improved our knowledge in this particular area, especially if you compare the progress or evolution we have made in all the other areas of our life. 

Did we learn about the individual who lives in the body? Are we any different or better than each other? Does color, race, gender, nationality or religion matter?  If you think the answer is yes, then remove the communal, technological and religious knowledge and then ask yourself again. If you still find the answer is yes, then remove the  politics of sense of belonging which will free you from your ego. By stripping away all of your learnt knowledge, you will say hello to your pure self. If you ask your pure self, you may find the right answer. Every human is closest to the pure self as a baby and babies certainly don’t discriminate.

As we grow we are subjected to external influences like education, life circumstances and internal hormonal changes that can influence one’s perception of self in social settings. In whatever way you look at these influences they are conforming an individual as a product that belonging society encourages or wants. Our pure self becomes tainted and biase as we become young adults. We have a strong need to feel that we are part of a family and belonging community. At that stage, we only become aware of the sense of belonging which stays strong unless we are exposed to or encouraged to learn to fly solo. Since we have not yet developed a sense of being an independent individual or personal freedom, we are susceptible to be used as political puppets for the interest of our belonging groups.  We are punished if we don’t conform, may not be physically but the fear of being shunned is a powerful motivator to follow the rules of the belonging society.

Since most of us have strong sense of belonging, we sacrifice our pure self and assume an identity what has been prescribed to us by our belonging groups, thus we sell our social liberties and sense of freedom on the name of so called security. Yet logically there is no security for a mortal, what we fear the most comes from the oxygen which is not in our control thus we are not alive because of our belonging groups nor we are alive with our will. If it was depending on the will alone no one would die. 

If we don’t recognize or acknowledge our pure self, then we just see ourselves as a body which is an extension of the belonging group,  we do have the knowledge that our body gets old and dies thus we fear from aging, getting sick or dying. Knowledge of being mortal creates insecurities, which compels us to have control in every aspect of our life. This pursuit of control has helped us evolve in all areas of our life, yet taken us in the opposite direction in understanding of our pure self.

As a CEO it is our responsibility to learn about our pure self, which can help to solve problems related to our insecurities. It allows us to understand that life is not just about being a physical body. By believing that you are more than a body, it reduces not only the fear of living and dying it helps us to like ourselves regardless of our looks, age or disabilities. When change happens in life you see it optimistically as just a chapter is changing instead of falling apart with hopelessness.

Religions have always been present because they discuss these issues. If you do not believe in anything, you do not believe in your pure self which compels you to draw a protective circle around yourself. This drains a lot of your energy which can be used otherwise for the well being of the body. Physically and emotionally drained individual can benefit by believing in, that there is more to you than just being a body. This belief has the potential to reduces fear – related stresses and internal anxiety, depression, or just being overly critical to self, caused by the lack of understanding.

In a temporary life it is a CEO’s responsibility to adopt a lifestyle which is beneficial instead of destructive, even if it is believing in something unknown like God. This is the beneficial side of religion. In this way religion is useful and practical. Yet ironically religions are the ones that promote the most hatred against each other, for instance prejudice against all other belief systems and it is because, usually religions have their spirituality tainted by the politics of their sense of belonging.

The politics of the sense of belonging to a one particular group is behind all our turmoil, so the whole education system needs to change, whether it is related to nationalism or religion. Will we grow out of our education system as an individual? Would we be able to learn about ourselves beyond the sense of belonging to one particular group and the knowledge it provides? Are we just the bodies or more than that? If we ask our pure self, we will find the answers to all these questions.

Extremists are in all societies throughout the world, but I will just compare east and west. Western upbringing teaches kids to take charge, use all their effort to climb and succeed in life. The predominant way to look at life, is as if its a mountain, so the higher you climb the more successful you are considered. The common concept is that if you put more effort in, you succeed in every day life, so God has taken the back seat. Some time you can see a smirk on people’s faces if you show that you believe in God. On the other hand eastern philosophy puts too much emphasis on God and goes to the opposite extreme. Both sides have their strong opinions and have been killing each other for a very long time over who is right. 

Personally I believe when a person thinks inside the boundaries it is against God’s will. The whole concept of human creation having potential is based on the pursuit of that potential. How can one claim that we will excel and reach God’s intended potential by following the rules or staying inside the boundaries? So why do we create certain boundaries around us? These boundaries are created either by the controlling powerful or the weaker individual seeking security.

The wisdom calls for each one of us to reach our individual potential at a certain speed and the right tempo which suits him/her. If you try to force the growth you may fail. For example, the right amount of stress is healthy to progress and excel. If you choose the extreme and go too fast you get stress -related disease, which is destructive to one’s health, and if you choose the other extreme, you stop yourself from the pursuit of potential. Then, what would be God’s purpose of creating us with the potential and a free will?

If we are trying to be like Angels or live like monks, we actually are going against God’s will. Our ability to disobey is the one which makes us human and as a human being we can choose to obey or disobey. Today it is time for the human to disobey and step up; to implement the original ability that God gave free will for, and make choices for humanity, spirituality and above all justice and equal human rights, instead of blindly following nationalism or organized religions.

This is the time to use our free will and ask ourselves, ‘how do we want to do it’? Throughout our history we have been developing weapons of mass destruction. Potentially we are leading ourselves to great destruction by killing each other. (As predicted in the Holy books the day of kyaamet, when the mountains will fly like cotton.) With that prediction, I raise a question; does man have the power to avoid such destruction by making different choices? Or will the man fall right into the predicted outcomes? As if we are powerless, predictable creatures whom can’t  change what is written as prophecy thousands of years ago? Can today’s modern man take charge and change the direction for the survival of humanity or dare I say God? because I believe if there is no human being there is no God either, at least physically.  

“Quote”

God has written the right fate

But God can change it too

Whatever God does, is right”. (Author unknown)

That is where the whole concept of prayer comes in. We have the ability to ask and God has the ability to fulfill but how? nothing can be physically fulfilled unless the human being is physically alive so the life keeps on going. 

For the individual who dies from a bunker buster bomb it is a day of kyaamet but not for the rest of us. I don’t deny any thing from the religions; because I believe we are going through one milestone at a time and they have been mile stones. They have done a great job in helping us to evolve to this point that we are able to understand the difference between spirituality, religions and group politics, but human story book is still full of the unknown. You can’t just put some thing in the computer and ask the predictions, in real life we all mean something, we even have the ability to change the path our ancestors have followed for centuries. 

Thank God most of us have become moderates and understand that there is no difference in race, color, gender or nations, and today we are becoming aware of equal human rights as well. This is where we need to understand that until humanity gets rid of the disease of ‘I am or we are better than others’, we are and will still be struggling to reach our potential. There is no haven for us and hell for the non-believers. We are still crossing mile stone number 10 or 20 on a 100 mile high way of potential. We change as we discover that we are wrong. We are not a finished product until we reach our potential that God has meant for us.

If we continue following the same path, we become predictable yet we have the power to change by making decisions about our future. Should one contribute one way or the other by following group politics or stand up and use free will? With free will we can turn things around by saying no to blindly obeying the ‘belonging group’. Whether you are sitting in a mosque, temple, church or a synagogue you are still the individual who has the gift of God – Yes the Big Free Will!

Since good and bad is dictated by society, it is based on human knowledge and assumptions, which changes year after year as we grow to our potential. Our potential has the power to reveal the truths about life, and we have yet to go further in this department. Until then we need to know that if we hurt others in the pursuit of our desires, we are doing wrong. It is not God who is deciding what is good or bad for us, because God has blessed us with the free will. As humans evolve, we learn that it was us who bought and sold ourselves. We are still struggling with human rights issues especially in the religious societies.

Recently a survey was done in the US that asked people if torture was okay. Those who went to church regularly approved of the use of torture, and those who did not attend church regularly were against the use of torture. The conservatives are the one who are closer to religions yet they are against human rights. It’s a strange twist that they are suicide bombers and are in favor of torture, and if you really want to see the examples of atrocities even this day and age just look at the Syrian conflict.

Most of us who want peace and human rights fall into the category of moderates, and are against extremes. The war-lovers seem to forget that the first few good things religions teach are the compassion, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and tolerance, yet some how it has turned around and group politics has given religions, spirituality and God a bad name.

The foundation of prejudice is based on unwise education of that we are better than others, and it’s in every school of religious and national thought.

From the individual to the family, and from a nation to religions, prejudice is like a stubborn infection that is very hard to get rid of. The only solution to contradict this old unwise education is with a more evolved education of moderation and being a CEO who can departmentalize religion and nationalism.  

We cannot rely on archaic teachings to address the current issues of our modern-day societies. If we can’t debate like educated people, then we should know why? Why haven’t we evolved from the animal marking territories? Before we start to kill each other or choose violence, we need to question. Technologically we are growing so advanced, why can’t we put the same emphasis in our social advancement?

When we fight and kill, it robs love and stimulates revenge-related, continuous killing, because we feel the pain of love loss thus we want the pain of love loss to be felt by the one who caused us the pain. We don’t care and become blind in the rage of revenge to kill including the innocent. The non-stop violence infects and infects. Do we have the right to kill innocents? Some justification may come from religious extremists because of their unbalanced sense of belonging to the group but there is no collateral damage for the spiritually evolved CEO.

Today if you go to the court system of any nation you get death or life for killing someone, even if they deserved to be killed, but no one is speaking against the injustice done or the innocent life loss during the conflicts of nations and religions.  

People whom engaged in extremes really believe that they are right in killing or destruction. Just like an alcoholic who is drunk, their perceptions are always tainted. These people have given their powers over to the extremist groups in order to satisfy their need to belong because of their extreme insecurities as an individual. Our insecurities are deeply related to the  animal inside. We only become human beings when love surrounds us, but when some how love is robbed we fall into the pit of our inner animal, being there, in this day and age is very dangerous because we don’t just fight with the fists, swords or spears today we can have brief case of weapons of mass destruction.    

We fail miserably if we value ourselves as just the body or the animal side.

Even as a baby human beings are smart, when hungry, wet, or feel lonely we cry. If the mother or father runs for every little cry even out of love, can hurt the baby as a human being, because baby quickly figures it out, so the fulfillment of the desires makes the animal side stronger. If the mom or dad says I have just changed and fed the baby, let him/her cry for a bit.  Baby cries for a while, and when no one comes he/she starts to take the first step towards becoming a human being by thinking and self soothing. Learning about the patience and delayed satisfaction is a paramount factor in strengthening the human side otherwise there is an imbalance which grows as the baby becomes an adult. We have a saying ” If the trunk of the tree is green you can bend it the way you want it but after that forget it, it would break but would not bend.”    

Larger the animal side harder it is to live with ethics and morals. In spite of all the religion’s strict rules and civilization the sex crimes are as prevalent as they were if not more than thousands of years ago. As most religions enforce their rules by fear of God or harsh punishments, it goes against the human nature because human himself is the best suited self regulator. Since God is not clearly present, as soon as an individual with the larger animal side finds a chance, the respect of the rules drops quickly, so the societies are always riddled with all kind of crimes related with lack of ethics and morals. The larger animal side is usually the culprit, if you look at our crimes including sex related crimes closely, after all the civilization religions and law and order, we put other animals to shame.

Our parents and society always try to enforce the rules, these rules usually are connected to the religious teachings, so why religions are so concern about the human sexuality? Why they bring God in and use God as a monster, who punishes and kills people if they don’t obey. If it was that bad then why would God put sex in the creation, especially with that much pleasure, that every creature including us is intoxicated when it comes to sex and reproduction?

There has to be a reason why we are not created as angels, and why we even try to live like an angel? Since we are created as humans, we need to live like human beings. God put a little God in all of us to make human and that is what we are. The best way to control human individual is to educate and let him/her to control by the self ethics and morals. Unfortunately religions have it wrong, if the individual has been controlled by the fear, he/she will defy the rules as soon as the fear is gone. Religions have been at war with the animal side since the conception of their ideology with no success. Why we have not been able to win against our animal side? What are we doing wrong?

Since the real war against the animal side is inside the individual, the knowledge of good and bad is not enough especially if the good and bad is constantly changing. Going to Mosque or Church does not guarantee the control of inner desires. Fear of God does not cut it either, because it has not worked even in thousands of years. We still run around like other animals, we kill each other; sexual crimes are probably higher than before. Shouldn’t we ask the questions why? Why do we still have all these social problems? Why are we still banging our heads against the same wall, following the same rules, if they haven’t worked in thousands of years? If thousands of years are not enough then what will it take to start looking for the answers some where else.

God gave this life and its bounties for us to enjoy and free will to create balance, but human always abuses the power, ever wonder why? Parents and societies haven’t taught the individual how to deal with the inner animal side, because they don’t know them selves. They are doing what they have learnt from their parents, so the societies don’t want to change or can’t change. If no one comes up with new ideas or questions the old rules, every thing stays as status quo.

Animal side is related to physical being who deals and holds important cards to create balance. It connects us to physical desires, love and its connected bounties. Since we are not only the genetics or soul, we are both and if we separate them life ends. One can says soul carry on to live; it has never been proven so we have to believe what ever makes sense to us.

Different groups have different assumptions and the strong will to follow those assumptions as the rules of their societies. We have been changing, from individual to collectively we have progressed but still the differences are great. We argue passionately about the things, that are not clear to understand, but we fight because of our sense of belonging. Common sense says, if you remove the soul from the body, body dies, and that is a fact. What happens to the soul is not clear so it falls in to the zone of assumptions. You can’t just live life as a physical being nor as a spiritual being, since we are a combination of both so life has to be lived as combination.

 

The first thing an individual can do is to find inner peace by doing that the animal side can be dealt better. Recognizing its rights and making deals with it. The legitimacy of the animal side has been rejected by all religions and they have been at war since beginning of our civilization and unfortunately they can’t change the course because just like God, they brought in the Devil as an out door entity as well. Looking into the religious societies they are not any better than secular systems. They have not been able to kill the animal side even with the fear base politics. Strict punishments and killing even questioning human beings by the religions, clearly says that God is a monster who punishes and kills.

There is no spirituality in the religions if they don’t teach the humanity and forgiveness. We have been and are hurting God’s image by influencing religions with the group politics. Today religions are at the losing end because of the extreme beliefs. This losing battle has a message and that is to change the old ways of thinking.

If a little God is in all of us, and one group of us wants the destruction of the other group, what does it mean? Well it means God has a big problem, we are out to destroy God on the name of God. Before we do the irreparable damage we need to take charge as individuals.

If our religions are hurting God it is because we are removing spirituality from the religions, we have lost compassion, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and tolerance. We have been given free will and the potential to climb and achieve, but we are stuck or even regressing socially because now we are able to kill in mass.

How can we change ourselves? Can we over power our animal side? Yes and yes but first of all we have to recognize the legitimacy of our animal side, make deals with it, and then stop the war against it as an individual. Understanding it can give the individual an inner peace and better control on the personal desires and teach the real altruism at the same time. 

In spite of all the religious knowledge as an individual we are gradually losing inner peace yet religions promise the man inner peace and after all the different religions, inner peace is still illusive for the individual. We as an individual are more torn apart today then even pre religion times because today group politics have taken over the religion instead of spirituality.

As human individual evolves, communities must evolve as well as their justice systems, how the communities deal with crime and punishment should be pure of religions and God. If a person steals a loaf of bread to survive, he/she is failed by the belonging community thus the blame should not be just on the individual. If the communities can not provide food and the basic necessities to the individuals then harsh punishments should not be enforced. Strict rules may keep the crime rate low, but those rules become suppressive and in the long run work against the community because people start to move away from the oppressive societies.

The first responsibility of the community is to look after its people then enforce the rules. Unfortunately as the number of people grow in the community, the enforcement of  the rules and looking after the people become complicated and difficult. This uncontrollable situation creates a need for flexible rules. Most religions encourage the ethical and moral duties, but they can’t be the laws and rules, so the enforcement is not possible unless it is clearly written as a law. If it is written clearly as a law for the individual then the responsibilities of the community should be written as well. Personally I am for the strict punishments, but after the community has done its share.

If the basic necessities are met then the evolved human does not have the need to commit crime. If one still does, then he/she needs to be punished. If one finds the punishment too harsh and inhumane then the explanation should be that when a perfectly comfortable human commits a crime by choice against a fellow human, at the crime time he/she is out of the circle of humanity and into the animal zone, thus does not deserve the humane treatment.

Personally I believe the victim or the family of the victim should play a bigger role in the punishments because the pain of the crime cannot be felt unless it hits home.

The enjoyment of a temporary life can not be fulfilled if we deny the legitimacy of our animal side. Animal side is put first or after is not the question, it has been put there by the creator for the human individual to experience the human life. To deny the enjoyments of the living life, like food and love for after life does not make any sense for the individual, but for the controlling authority is an other story . Contrary to the popular beliefs deeper satisfaction of life is not in the extremes it is in creating balance.

My logic says the enjoyments of life from foods to sex and every thing in between can be enjoyed only if we are alive. The awareness of these enjoyments may be soul related but the animal side is crucial to fulfill them. Even God, religions and every law and order man made of God made, find these so powerful that they comply with the animal side to keep peace in our societies.

The Alcohol of God

“If the intoxication was in the alcohol, then the bottle should dance, Its my prerogative that I drink to get drunk”. 

This is a verse from a poem I read in Pakistan, since I don’t know the author, I would quote it as author unknown and I may not take the knowledge author intended, regardless these words have inspired me to write this Blog.

Alcohol of God is meaningless in the glass bottle; it’s only activated when it is drunk by the human beings, it drives them crazy to the point that they can kill their own children because of the rule breaking. If one can go that far with the corporal punishment, they would not have any hesitation killing others regardless of guilt. If the religions accept and preach strict rules with the strict punishments to enforce they can’t wear the four jewels of spirituality, compassion, forgiveness, sacrifice and love.  

If it was just God making things happened, then God will be present physically every where and human beings would be meaningless or worthless as the organized religions describe. Illusive God means human has to dig in deeper to reach for the potential he/she has come with. If God is the creator, every human progress should  make God proud of his creation. Now it’s up to us to learn how to have a drink yet not to get drunk, because too much of a good thing is not good anymore. We have always been killing each other over it. Today we still kill and die on the name of God but now a days we have weapons of mass destruction, so any conflict can be a hell on earth. 

If I drink God as a social drink or as a moderately religious person, not only it can benefit me from being spiritual, I can serve humanity as well. I can harm myself and the others by getting drunk, becoming a suicide bomber or a bomber for the belonging groups to kill even the innocents. Getting drunk with the alcohol of God, religions or nationalism undermines the individual whom is designed to be a CEO. 

By giving free will to human beings, God made each and everyone of us a CEO, who makes  and lives life with choices. If you believe, by making human, meaning full God becomes meaningless you are looking at the big picture with a half knowledge. In reality it just describes that how God and humans are intertwined in making things happened. Like two wires turn on the light bulb. Knowledge of human beings depends on God and God depends on the mankind. 

Prophets were miraculous men; if they were not there would we have the knowledge of organized religions? or even organized nations?

God as a silence space and yourself as a note, you can make your mortal life a harmonious melody. If you make yourself too big and reject God altogether, the sound without the silence space can not be a harmonious melody thus it is harmful to you as an individual. If you don’t speak or stay quite when you should be speaking, your personal music does not mean any thing  and you do not matter, not even for yourself.  

Notes are always written by the human being, but the ability to write notes, come from God. You can’t separate them, because without the empty spaces music is just a noise and without the music there is complete silence, either way extreme makes life meaningless for a mortal.

When you create a harmony between noise and silence it becomes a successful melody of your life. It may be desired but absolute silence is not a melody for an ordinary human being. Seeking the extreme awareness is for the chosen few, if everybody starts to live like a monk, it can have some drug like side effects on the social fabric. As individuals we all have some responsibilities, even if we are told that we are going to heaven by following certain life style.

Since life is not extreme for the moderate folks, they have to juggle around all departments of life, some time religion and heaven become secondary to the present duties of life. As promoted by the most religions, living life for after life is the right way to live. Logically God would have not put people in difficult circumstances in this life, if every thing was decided for human individual by some out door entity.

Free will has its purpose, and that is to make human individual a CEO of his/her life so he/she can choose and wish to live. A CEO is responsible to find a balance in life on earth and earn some feathers for the life after death. It is a responsibility of the CEO to look after this life first, then the after life. The reason is obvious, it is because the human is a work horse of God. All the physicality of the spirituality is done by the human being in his/her living years, all the prayers are answered and fulfilled by the human in physical life and yes all the human beings work to help fulfill each other’s prayers with the will of God.   

God did not create human being just to worship, the life of the human individual is a practical prayer because we all work to live and that work is always helping the other human beings thus helping humanity and God.  We can’t find God even in perfect quietness or in the majestic architects of all religions.  Individual has a duty to find a personal balance; the right music of his/her life is not in a perfect quietness. Our responsibility is to make the right kind of noise for us as an individual, community and humanity. A good CEO takes a responsibility, along the way, not only just for self, he/she corrects the notes for the other people who are just making noise without allowing the empty spaces to play a role in there lives or sitting quietly doing nothing. You can meditate all you want but the business of life is done by being physical. Sure if you are stressed you can benefit from it, but if you are thinking that it is a solution for all of the human beings problems, it just does not cut it for me.

With the advances in medical science, we are now able to extend the length and quality of our lives. If we look in that direction, how much influence one can have by living a constructive or destructive lifestyle? Everyday something new is being discovered and we find ourselves in uncharted territory. If we don’t take charge as a CEO we are left to follow the antiquated ideas and religious beliefs that our ancestors have laid out for us thousands of years ago. They did not have today’s knowledge, technology and the problems related to it. Only a CEO can look beyond the boundaries created by the sense of belonging and it’s politics.

A CEO can still believe in God yet evolve beyond the boundaries of religions. We are all created with a higher identity than prescribed by the religions. A CEO can evolve beyond the sense of belonging and make sense of today’s issues and put everything in place according to its importance in today’s evolved world. What gives us identity is the intelligent life within us, and that intelligent life does not belong to any one race, color, nation or religion. it is a spiritual entity which makes us all connected to each other beyond any one particular group. We are part of this spiritual entity not connected to a limited group of people as a gang nation or religion.

I believe knowledge dictates the strength of the individual. If every one of us believes that we are worthless without belonging to a group, we undermine and underestimate the creation of God and God himself period.

As CEO’s, we have a need to use our free will to live this life as we are meant to. We have a need to pursue our potential. Our continuous evolving nature calls for moderation because we are a work in progress, our decisions for extremes should be harnessed with the knowledge of continuous evolution. I want to speak to individuals directly, so we all become moderates by seeking the right knowledge. Any kind of extreme is not a solution for a successful individual life or a society.

Just like you can’t judge the whole book by looking at the cover, an incomplete building or an art work which is not complete, the human being is still in the process of evolution. We will make mistakes yet still achieve and do perfect things, but we should get better not worse. Strong ego is related to extreme decisions. If we accept the imperfections we will still seek to grow, but when we think our knowledge is complete and better than others we develop egotistic extremes.

 There is nothing wrong being religious but when one puts religion over and above every thing, it can become a problem. For instance it dose not make sense if you kill your loved one, just because they don’t want to follow your way of living.

Eating food to live, love and care for the family is as real as it can get, God falls in a different area of life. If you have not eaten for days you start to hallucinate never mind know and believe in God, just ask a patient of mental disorder.  Whether you believe in God or not it does not hurt, but losing loved one is extremely painful. Going without food can harm physically is a reality and a hard fact, but the belief system is a thought process, which can be changed with new knowledge, thus is not stable. The proof of instability is clear; we have several religions, that mean even God had to write different books. It can’t be denied because we have been fighting each other for thousands of years. What could be the reason? 

God can’t be blamed because as an individual we have been granted the free will. It is an individual’s duty to use the gift of free will to tread through the mortal life. The reason for the different books can be that we could not handle all the knowledge at once. The stubborn people with emotions and strong sense of belonging got stuck with the politics of their belonging groups and denied the authenticity of the other groups, or God has plan for the human to play a role in bringing on to themselves, the day of (keyaamat) judgement or save themselves to carry on evolving with the human race to eventually reach the potential.

The concept of God’s existence exists with the human race, if we all kill each other it would not only hurt human race it would logically hurt God’s existence as well. The question is that would God allow that? Since I am an optimistic individual, I think human beings will come to the senses and cross the political lines of their respected religions and join the spirituality.

Writing different books means God created a competitive environment so we can come to this understanding what I am talking about and take charge. After killing each other for thousands of years, over who is right with incomplete knowledge has and it should teach us that there is more to understand about this life. Its time to change and step up higher on the ladder of potential.

Following and falling for the group politics has brought us on a cross road of spirituality, we have to choose either we stay in to our pigeon holes and keep killing each other just like we have been or come out of our insecurities and change the course of our journey and its out come.

God would love to see the creation finely gets it. Human power individually and collectively is beyond our imagination and understanding, until we reach our potential. Imagine a street bum with a five dollar becomes a billionaire; we are in a process of gaining power and understanding, so we can’t claim our knowledge has been completed.

God is writing this new book with the help of human beings. How it ends is still a mystery, so we can’t just anticipate as all doom and gloom. We have to be optimistic and hope full. If  we understand that there is more to learn, we should become humble about existing knowledge. If we are humble, we believe in tolerance, acceptance and harmony. At that stage we can go further beyond the boundaries of the religions, and deep into the territories of the spirituality, where God is not a monster, who punishes burns and kills. There is no carrot and stick in spirituality, there is no politics of right or wrong, only the truth raw and simple truth that human is the third equation who can make decisions with God given free will to even change the destiny. Could that mean we can change the day of (keyaamat) day of destruction or judgement, may be, if we get our act together and stop digging a grave for the humanity by producing and using the weapons of mass destruction.

The knowledge of human emotions are not completely understood, we still need to put things in perspective. We love our loved ones we love people around us and we love God through our belonging religions. There is nothing wrong with it, until we get caught up in picking and choosing, if you choose God, people or loved one over the others, you have a problem. God has solved that problem by giving you the free will to balance it all. You can’t just choose God over your loved one, or let people become so power full that you lose or even kill your own loved one to keep face in society. Every body and everything has its place in our life. In the end of the day it is the individual who decides, how to live a personal life.

The need of God has always been there, but egotistic human being has always been, is and will deny it. Not everybody is blessed like Mozart who could play the brilliant music as a child without any education, we should not play God with a little bit of Godly power. Understanding the need of the silence spaces between notes is important to play the music of our lives, it’s essential for us to have God present to make our lives rhythmic melody, instead of an egotistic noise.

Why are you so drunk and dancing with so much passion, when you are not 100% sure about the other side? You under value and demote yourself from the status what God himself had given to you individually.

Just picture it, God is sitting in a jungle he has just created, all by himself with the trillions and trillions of dollars worth power. It meant nothing for God if no body was there to be helped or needed that valuable power. You can create any thing you want, the real value is revealed only, if there is an appreciating eye, and it can’t be your own. The value of a stone is related with the desire of the human beings. God felt something was missing, so the human came along, different than all other creations because God had given him Godly power worth five bucks, with the potential to reach higher (read five bucks). This fiver of the Godly power is enough to survive for every one but, human needs it more and more, because it is intoxicating. As the demand for more grew God Gave higher power to select individuals like prophets, they came along and taught there people about how to chipping in.

Say you have five dollars which gives you the wit and strength to make a raft and row your self to the other side of the river, if you wanted, but if you and your group all chipped in, you can build a bridge to benefit every body. The comfort, love care and security are great but they all come with a price and that is the politics.

As the human learnt to work together, the group politics started to evolve. Today we are plagued with competition to the point, that some human groups deny the existence of God. Just because God does not interfere, should one decide to deny the existence? No, human and God are negative and positive wires to light the bulb of knowledge. God’s work is done by the human, every good deed has the backing of God, but the human is involved in every step of the way. It is not the action of human it’s the thought before the action, and where do those thoughts come from, you can’t just stop at the  thoughts or the actions, the ability to deny self and help others is Godly gift to human beings.

If you ask the deniers they only see the enormity and admire the earth and space, but forget to understand the importance of the eyes and the ability of the human brain, which enable them to see.

God created human with the evolving capacity, every cell of us is a witness of God. You push the muscle, it grows, you get infection your immune system becomes sophisticated, you push to learn, your brain grows neurons, the toxicity makes liver larger, running makes heart efficient, and on and on. Is that a coincidence? and why there are no limits? To me it is as clear as it can get, we are here to evolve and no religious boundaries can stop it.

Why God is not there to hand out everything you want, whenever you want? Ask a dad, whose kids are grown up and don’t want to leave the house, don’t want to work and always depend on him. Look at the birds they have to go every morning to find food, they are supplied with the food but not into their mouth nor they are given a nest.

If we are given five bucks worth free will we are all capable of surviving, but these day’s survival is not enough, because our societies or our belonging groups make us feel that we are weak and incapable of surviving with our individual five bucks. The social fabric is not strong if everybody has dominating sense of freedom, so logically belonging groups or societies feel threatened.

Since the group is weaker in smaller numbers the insecurities encourage the recruitment and multiplying, yet discourage the individual strength. The sense of belonging is heavily promoted and sense of freedom is discouraged even the individuals have been punished or shunned.

Both, sense of belonging and sense of freedom are ingrained in us by God and free will is given to us to create the balance to live a happy life. If you don’t understand the value of your five bucks or your free will, you are colorless and very easy to take on the color what your belonging group enforces you to have, that means you value less of yourself than, what God meant for you.

As an individual we all should ask this question to ourselves, what are we created as, sheep or human? Should we let the politics of our belonging group demote us to sheep, or stand up to question the fear based politics.

Does this make the individual out of religion, defiantly yes, if he/she belong to an organized religion but he/she sure connects with spirituality. I don’t disregard any wisdom but extremes, and human has a tendency to carry personal beliefs to extremes whether they are based on personal spirituality or organized religion.

Holy books are consisted of life’s wisdom, but they undermine the human’s free will and related abilities. My intention is to teach what is not learned by the human from the holy books, because it is time to take the next step towards our potential so we need to pull our selves beyond the group politics and seek the real essence of God’s creation; the real reason why in a human being, God put the ability to disobey God at times. Today is the time for the human to use that ability to say no to group politics, even if it is connected to the holy books.

Human beings are created with free will for a reason. No matter how insignificant one is, the choice – making power is a power which makes a human superior to warrior ants and worker bees. Those creatures are compelled by their genetics alone. There is a verse from a poem from Poet of East. Dr. Alama Iqbaal in Urdu, the author, that says, and I

“Quote”

“Khudi ko kar buland itna kay her tuqdeer say pehlay  khudaa bunday say khud poochay btaa tary raza kyaa hay.

“Bring your self so high, that before any fate, God comes to the human to ask what is your wish?”.

With the blessing of a free will we can even override our genetics. Sure we can’t take all the credit because of the dependency on the oxygen but what happens after we take that breath it is the will of a CEO.

If we look at our boundaries, none of them are created by God. Believe me if they were from God, none of us would be able to break them. Just like there is a boundary for the birds to fly in space, or other creatures to fly. But for us there is no boundary. We fly in space even though we don’t have wings.

Most boundaries are made by the human beings out of fears, control or a special wisdom. Control and fear based boundaries have been used by the religions but this special wisdom sets the rhythm of triangular balance to adapt to the speed which we can absorb and understand the knowledge without going to extreme. For instance look at our school system. We teach kids in grades. Ever wonder why? Each one of us has a certain way of understanding things. And a good teacher knows how to tap into one’s potential. Knowing what rhythm works for a particular kid is wisdom in itself.

I may use the same bunch of exercises for my clients but it is never the same for all. If you believe that, if it works for Tom, it works for Harry, then sooner or later you will run into problems. Using the same methods you have learned, may not work all the time. Making or breaking boundaries have been a part of our evolving  nature and history, but they were never from God. God actually encourages us to follow our potential by staying illusive.

A group of people, community a country even a religion becomes an entity just like God, when it starts to look after its sick and hungry individuals. In return the individual grows a strong sense of belonging, which some time can call for sacrifice even for one’s life. This loyal nature is in the foundation of the strong sense of belonging which compels the individual to deny him/herself for the betterment of the belonging group but this belonging group should be the whole humanity. 

Just like kids expect to be fed by their parents, even after they have become adults, if you believe that God is doing everything, you will stay behind with the expectation to be fed and looked after by God. If you start to take responsibility and help the helping hand, you serve the duty that God has created you for. God needs human strength to deal with God’s affairs. You can stay as hands down or become a helping hand by choice. This choice is beyond any religion or group’s political system. It is purely between God and the individual, thus a spiritually aware being is a CEO.

The prayers and sacrifice of any kind relates with pleasing God thus prayers and sacrifice should always be related with the real thing. Helping other human beings or even other creatures without any strings attached to convert or conform to our beliefs, because the reality is spirituality not the religion. All religions started with the foundation of spirituality but fell victim of the politics of sense of belonging to one particular group.

As human beings we are here to reciprocate, there is no doubt that we are alive because of  the oxygen which is provided to us and it’s out of our control, thus God is needed internally and externally to keep our machine running without any glitch. The biggest thing we need to understand is that the  importance of the human being that he/she is running God’s affairs too. Our helping work for God is to help each other, digging in deeper for our potential to become what God had intended. God may have created us to manifest God himself so our work for God, like fulfilling someone’s prayers is equal to prayers and sacrifice. If we help others, it is spiritual and closer to God more than any prayers. If your prayers to God are more important than actually helping someone in need, you have to set your priorities straights and look at what God values more. Insisting parents and society to get people to pray is mostly political conforming efforts make the individual to belong to the belonging group, if you ask, why? the answer would be” just do it”.

The real meaning of helping others is spirituality and nothing is closer and dearer to God more than ordinary man’s spirituality. God is not going to punish for missing a prayer. If one says that, it is because of controlling an ordinary man by fear. If you learn to know your abilities and hidden powers as an individual, you are not disobeying God, but you may send chills down the spines of controlling Priest, Mullah or Rabi. Following and digging in for your potential is actually following God’s orders. It may appear the wrong thing to do but it is God who created the human being that way.

Just look at our history. We have been following God’s orders. Regardless of the strict religions our progress is a living proof. Today’s man has to come out of authoritarian, conservative, and powerful influences and learn more about the logics of God, science, evolution and human politics. That mean taking charge as an individual for the responsibilities God has installed in each and every one of us. If you are an individual who follows orders, just look at yourself as an individual who is connected  directly to God and spirituality rather than religion, sense of belonging and the politics of it. Have a drink of God and spirituality, it will allow you to see through the fog of being drunk on the sense of belonging, so you don’t commit spiritual crimes even if it is called by your religions. 

Please ignore the English and stay focus on the content.

When I was in Pakistan I have seen some people with the small heads, they were usually found in the spots where people gave food and money to the poor as charity. There were no knowledge of the zika virus so it is not something new. Today we are trying to connect it with the virus, yet at that time it was accepted as written by the fait. I have no scientific knowledge and I am not going to assume, but I have the understanding that people would blame God and accept it rapidly as fait and consider themselves as insignificant and helpless. When I look back in the history from plague to Ebola to zika to all kind of human disease have been controlled and or even eradicated by the human beings with the scientific knowledge not by the prayers of the religious leaders. Religious or I should use the proper word the spirituality is and can be one of the best medicine for the suffering human beings because it goes deep inside the cause of the ailments. There are several disorders connected to stress and stress usually is related to the individual thinks.

Where I am going with it is that if you have the knowledge of zika virus topped with the ultrasound you can see what is going on inside the human body. If there is something wrong with the baby should you follow the advice of the religious leader or the scientist?.

I personally believe God is living through us so logically I am against the abortion, but if you have millions of babies born with zika it can be a real threat to, not only to the humanity, but God’s existence as well. That is the reason I don’t take a firm stance against abortion in special circumstances because God functions with the functioning human beings thus it is a right move by the united nation to make it an international emergency.

Internet, space station and our diseases all point towards an urgent need for religions, scientists, communities, and the ordinary individual to work together instead of bickering. I feel there is a tug of war between the religions and scientific community to win over the individual. Scientific community has been working hard to convince the individual that religions are not true way of life. That is an egotistic assumption, this is where I always repeat myself by saying our knowledge is not complete thus we can’t assume that science is the only way to go. In some cultures it has its followers but then again we have billions of people follow their religions religiously. The problem is that both extremes should think about the brain power usability. There is a lot of knowledge scientifically unproven yet proven to help like placebo effects, spirituality, God, love and whole lot of emotional issues we don’t really know but strongly feel about them.

Last little while its a little more pronounced that nature is asking us to work together spiritually instead of religiously or nationally for the humanity. My question to people like Donald Trump is how do you create walls for these kind of problems, we are a lot more connected to each other than we think. You can make the walls but you can’t protect yourself in the glass bowl or an iron dome because we die from the inside out as well as we do from the out side. Divisions only make us vulnerable, working together is a necessity it is not a choice. 

We use a term in Pakistan called goomraah. If anybody starts to think out side of the box and questions the status quo or challenges the necessity of certain boundaries, the passionate extremists will call him/her the person who lost the Way. I find it very interesting that those people who question and challenge are the ones, who find new pathways to the new worlds, new directions and inventions which are helpful to humanity and help humanity move forward and evolve. Yet they are called goomraah. The question is why does one has to lose the way to find the way? A good CEO knows that you don’t have to be imprisoned, of an ideology to be free. You can’t judge if you are blind folded by the influences of the politics related to the belonging groups, you have to be the individual who is free and a CEO. The real freedom resides in the justice to all departments of life, self and the others around, including God because we are more than the body, even more than the soul because soul has to experience this life by living with the body. Interact with a whole lot of other people in the same situation but different belief systems. Every one is a package of body soul, story of life, future plans, past history, and present circumstances. If we all identify ourselves with just the body or soul, it just is not enough, because of our mortality. Body eventually will get old and die, soul will have to leave thus, beauty, power, and job title should not be the base of the real happiness, if one is finding happiness in these things that happiness is ego related.

I can be the biggest proponent of individualism and my whole theme is to strengthen the individual but my purpose behind all that is to strengthen the humanity as a whole because I believe if the thread is strong the fabric can be real strong.                 

Originally human beings are compelled to gather together because of their social nature and security but in the process, they gave up important elements of their individuality. In return for their contribution to society, it was their right to be protected and provided for by their society. Human beings grouped together and gravitated towards the areas of the world which provided the most comfort and richest resources. This need for survival, resources and security has been going on for as long as societies have existed.

Today if you look at the societies, people are molded and brain washed to follow the customs and traditions regardless of the evolution of time. Every society judges the others as inferior to them because of the education passed on through the generations. Religious people think, since they pray and sacrifice for God, they will go to heaven and all the others who don’t follow their way of living will go to hell.

The other extremists think that it’s being backward to even think about the existence of God. Either way they try to mold their young ones to the way they have been living. Right or wrong is not easily judged by the individual because of common and accepted views of the societies they belong too. That is the fundamental cause of prejudice in an individual’s life and human societies simultaneously. This flawed education system has been haunting human since the dawn of the civilization yet it all starts at home.

If the individual has to live in a society, the rules have to be followed. The personal view of a mortal being is not valued even by the individual. For instance western liberated women would not even think twice to be like eastern women, because of their ways of living and eastern women would think that being wild and liberated is against their values. Both sides look down at each other because of their upbringing which is influenced by their  respected societies. Social influences dictate even personal values, there is very little focus on personal happiness and contentment which is very dangerous for a mortal being individually. 

A while back I picked up a Christian magazine calls Awake April 22 1993, just wanted to read the religion’s role in Man’s wars, the start of the article says (quote) (“there has never been a people that did not have some form of religion,” says

“The world book of encyclopedia (1970 edition)” Yet historians Will and Ariel Durant wrote: war is one the constants of history,” Are those two constants, war and religion, some how connected? Indeed throughout history, war and religion have been inseparable.”

On the next page it says Anne Fremantle wrote in the book Age of Faith: Quote” “Of all the wars men have waged, none have been more zealously undertaken than those on behalf of a faith. And of these “holy wars, none have been bloodier and more protracted than the Christian Crusades of the Middle Ages.” End quote”

Since I am on the subject I have to mention another author who wrote in the time magazine April 25^th2011Jon Meacham writes an article titled “ Is Hell Dead” he writes about Rob Bell who is a Pastor of the Mars Hill Bible Church and I quote” when we get to what happens when we die, we don’t have any video footage, says Bell “ so let’s at least be honest that we are speculating, because we are .” end quote.”

These kind of discussions are needed for the ordinary individual so we all can stand up, judge and ask questions about our own group politics, instead of following it like a sheep. 

The individual has been domesticated by all societies according to their social agreement. This has created repercussions for the individual. They have been made to feel inadequate and dependent. They are taught that God, religion, politics and society itself is more important than the individual. When you become part of a group or a gang, you become inferior. Yet society is created by and made up of individuals. It is the individual’s responsibility to do justice to the belonging group and to him/herself at same time.

We need to create balance inside of the individual, so that the individual will not be corrupted by or affected by group politics. That individual is my ideal CEO. If we let ourselves be treated like cattle we cannot even dream of the potential God has in store for us. Religions have been the stepping stones to create a proper speed to evolve and adopt the changes gradually, they are not it, spirituality is it.  

I believe that we each come into the world with the right to live in peace and raise our children without any dangers to ourselves and our generations. Our human rights should surpass any religious opinion regardless of our country, race, gender or sexual orientation. We have to grow as the world turns. There is no inferior or superior human race. It is all one spiritual entity, the life force which is carried by the individual or who carries the individual. At that level every body is same you could vary in size, gender, sexual orientation, color, race, nation or religion, but the fact remains the same, we all bleed and die the same way or if you want to look at it scientifically it is proven genetically connected by the carbon.

I am an idealist. I see the world with my idealist eyes that do not recognize the lines and boundaries of a political group or in general today’s world. There are no political lines in the natural and physical world. These boundary lines are created either from our territory marking animal side or by the weaker individual who gave up his individual liberty and potential powers to the group politics in order to attain security.

If we look at our evolution in other areas of life we should have evolved in our security department too. This is not only for security but for comfort and development as well. Human beings are social creatures. We cannot live alone or without the earth. Humans are not endangered as much from external elements as from each other with our weapons and wars and the potential annihilation. By creating the sociopolitical boundaries called society, country, and religion are we really doing any good for our security or are we going against it?

In society, every law and order and every religion has at least started on the basis of justice yet it gets complicated and compromised by the group politics. Most of today’s problems are related to the issues of injustice. Whether it is somebody’s land being taken or somebody was killed and revenge is sought for the love loss. It all comes down to people seeking justice for a wrong done to them. In order to attain peace whether external or internal you have to seek not to do the things that you do not want done to you. You have to live a just life. If you start living with yourself that way you will let the others live that way also. A good CEO is judged by the actions, so it is important to establish the identity as an individual, so when it comes to decision making you don’t just follow the order.

If you are told to kill an innocent individual on the name of God, you have to think logically that certain realities should stay in the forefront. God is a reality no one understand one hundred percent, so no one should kill an innocent individual because that is a physical reality. You can’t kill some one over a reality you don’t understand so listening to a politically charged leader is a self demotion from your CEO status.

Since God is an alcohol for human just like catnip for a cat, it is important to have the understanding for our free will, because we enjoy it and even by choice we get drunk on it. It’s a known fact that drinking to get drunk is destructive for the individual and the surrounding people. With the free will we spouse to be a CEO or our lives, and evolve as the time and the world evolves around us. Its one’s duty to understand how to be a CEO of his/ her life.

The basic facts of life include that we are mortal individually yet we always break the world records discover new things and technologies and inventions for our comfort all the time. Looking at the human brain and the body it all points towards the limitless potential, we are like the ocean; you can’t see the sea shore when you go in the middle of it. And that is the reason I believe that God lives through the human and evolves as we evolve. Sure as a single cell we are just a part of the bigger picture but the strength of the fabric depends on the thread.

The knowledge of the past is researched by us today. Regardless of proven wrong over and over we still kill each other and claim being right. Egyptians took their belongings with them believing that they will live afterlife and need the things they own. Today we rob their tombs and research about their life and belief system. Yet we still believe the same way in afterlife without a doubt. Mayans and Chinese have similar stories. Does this mean we should not believe in afterlife? I still believe, but not the same way. I leave the unknown as unknown. We will learn more as we evolve to our potential. In the meantime we should know one thing for a fact, that, we should not fight over and kill each other with passion over what is unknown.

Religious stories, the political disagreements can start a secondary group with in a larger group. For example Shia faith was created as a sect of Islam after a political war. These religious stories are like the wounds nobody wants to heal. A person who carries past wounds robs his/her own happiness sometimes for life. It is hard for me to understand why does a whole society can’t see that, if past wound can rob an individual from happiness, what kind of devastating effects, it can have on a group of people, unless there are people who benefit from the politics of division.

Collectively we should have the knowledge to heal the individual and society. The individual should know by now that political entities reap benefits by these continuous conflicts. If you keep scratching the wound it does not heal, even after thousands of years. We still are passionate about the atrocities have been done to our group by the other group. Regardless of every religious teachings of forgive and forget to carry on to the future. Human societies should evolve, from the past politics of divisions, and bring peace to the present and forge in to the future as an evolving for the better entity. Just look at the Syrian conflict and its toll it is a prime example of the sense of belonging to a group, the remedy is not more bombing it is the individual awakening with the knowledge of the sense of belonging to the humanity as a whole.   

Gangues Khan, Hitler, Hiroshima, Darfur, and countless other past histories show that human has the capacity to forgive and carry on, to excel and evolve. An individual having troubles in life with past experiences, anxiety, depression or mental health issues is one thing, you deal with the medicine and counseling, but when nations or races have problems we need to come up with evolved thinking as international counseling for evolved solutions.
