Month: April 2020

Before we discuss becoming the CEO of your life, let’s consider the triangle of a sense of belonging and a sense of freedom. If we exclusively choose either the sense of freedom or the sense of belonging, we end up at extremes. It’s not one or the other; it’s about balancing the two. Remember, if you choose one over the other, the pendulum can swing you to the opposite direction, where you don’t want to be. If you resist this, you might be torn apart emotionally or become so stressed that you lose your health in various ways.

Human individual

Sense of freedom Sense of belonging

To balance these two powerful human senses, you must become the CEO of your life, managing your own show. Otherwise, your belonging groups will call the shots, dictating how you should think and live. If you comply without questioning, believing they know better than you, you fall into a trap of insignificance, inadequacy, and meaninglessness. Worse, you may feel like a born sinner. They succeed in robbing your self-esteem, making you act against your genetic makeup. This can rob you of your own happiness and contentment. As mortals, we cannot afford this because the most crucial aspect of being mortal is to be happy and content. If your nature calls for you to be a free spirit, but the politics of your sense of belonging overrides this, you end up in internal conflict. This is not a healthy place, especially for a mortal.

Belonging groups have always discouraged individual strength because an educated individual is difficult to control. In some conservative societies, questioning authorities, especially religious ones, is still punishable. Your ability to question is suppressed due to governing politics, which goes against nature’s call.

This has nothing to do with God and the Devil. We must learn to use our free will to balance everything in life to survive hostile situations. At the end of the day, we bear the responsibility for our actions. Committing spiritual crimes in the name of belonging groups or religions still falls on our individual shoulders because we must live with the external and internal consequences.

When you ask yourself who and what you are, the straightforward answer is that you are the third equation, equal to God and the Devil. Nothing takes physical form unless you put your effort into it. God can do good with your help, and the Devil cannot do bad without your assistance. My question to you is, how many times have you seen God perform a miracle for you, or the Devil come to you exclusively and cause harm without human intervention? Don’t think about movies and their special effects when answering this.

If scientists say you evolved from monkeys, ask why monkeys are still around and why they didn’t evolve with you. Physically, there might not be much difference, but the differences we have are unbelievable. How many monkeys can do what a human child can, from talking to solving problems? I saw a video of a toddler who threw pillows on the floor to make his landing soft. This little difference shows the ability to think, plan, and achieve. Remember the title of this blog, “The Atom of Autonomy.” That’s the difference between monkeys and humans. Sure, evolution is happening for us all, but not without the differences we brought from our unknowns. Whether you believe it’s from God or not, I think that atom of autonomy is a God particle we all carry within. If you’re not aware, you’re used to seeing yourself as just a physical entity. I believe we have an equally strong spiritual side that came with us before birth.

Did we take a physical form of a primate, or did we evolve from monkeys enough to understand our godly nature? If that’s not true, why aren’t miracles from God happening all the time? Why is human physicality required for all good and bad to happen?

Did God create the world, its residents, the universe, and galaxies? Or did our awareness of God evolve with us and become part of humanity? Or was it always there, and we became aware by exploring our brain’s capacity, just like muscles grow with use, to see what we are capable of.

If we don’t know, what is wrong with accepting the unknown? Why do we kill each other over assumptions or what we don’t know? If we don’t know what was or what will be tomorrow, why do our assumptions become our facts? The answer lies in our loyalties to the politics of our belonging groups and the politics of our sense of belonging.

Ask why we have an evolutionary nature and why some resist while others explore. Who is right in following God’s will, the explorers or the obedient? I believe evolution is in our genes, so anything we brought with us in our nature is godly. Everything else is created by humans for political purposes, whether out of love or control.

What is God to you as a mortal individual? Why do some human groups give all the power to God, even if God needs your help to perform good deeds physically? Where do you think you stand in the larger scheme of life as a human individual?

You are an entity who converts spirituality into physical actions, so have some respect for yourself. You bring free will, the ability to evolve, a personal sense of justice, compassion, and the ability to sacrifice and love one another. These are ingrained in us from before birth, so why do you still feel inferior, insignificant, or sinful? This means you are a spiritual entity before you take physical form. Your troubles start with politically tainted installed knowledge.

By now, you understand being a CEO of your life and have learned about the flipped triangle. You have learned about the powerful politics of your sense of belonging and have become aware of your sense of freedom. Now you need to understand why we become raging monsters when our love is robbed.

Becoming aware of the rules, traditions, customs, and rituals of our belonging groups, like nations and religions, is crucial to functioning peacefully within society. Remember, there is a world within you where it matters what you do and how you act outwardly. Everything has its consequences, and as mortals, we must be careful with our choices, whether for ourselves or our belonging group.

Our conflicts have nothing to do with the spiritual side of our religions. There is no spirituality in killing each other in the name of religion, even if it is called for by religious leaders. It is all about the politics of a sense of belonging, power over others, revenge for love loss, or plain and simple territorial disputes.

Love loss is a significant cause of our conflicts. Contributing to the fire of hatred and killings has nothing to do with the spiritual side of humanity. It won’t stop with political or religious leaders because they fuel our passionate religious wars. It has to come from individuals, from the bottom up, not the top down. If each of us starts questioning the politics of our belonging groups and stops feeding the conflicts with personal emotional fire, there is a chance for peace. But before that happens, the individual has to evolve to be a computer runner instead of believing they are just the data or the computer itself.

Every one of us is born as a computer runner with the gift of a brand new computer. Our families, communities, nations, and religions start to install data in us as our education and expect us to take the identity of that installed data. For instance, if you are born as a Sikh, the elders want you to grow a beard, not cut your hair, and become a Sikh. If you are born into a Muslim family, you are expected to go to the mosque, pray five times a day, believe in God and Prophet Mohammad, and follow everything said fifteen hundred years ago. If you are born Christian, you are taught you are a born sinner and told to believe in Jesus as the son of God and follow what he said two thousand years ago. If you are born into an atheist family, you are taught there is no God, and having a belief system is foolish. This is all education, and for an evolving human being, education is nothing more than data and not a real identity.

The real identity is not even the computer itself, even if it is your body. It’s just a physical body and brain, like today’s smart car that can run itself but is still your car. Even if you say, “I love my car,” can you say that car is your real identity? In reality, the person who gets a name right after birth is the computer runner. This human being who lives in a physical body, accepts knowledge as data, is more than the computer and the data combined. This spiritual entity that takes physical form at birth can be called a human being.

The question is, what is that spiritual entity? As an individual with a single body that has limitations and mortality attached from birth, we don’t feel strong and able, so we gather together and feel strength in numbers.

Our logic is twisted by our politics of a sense of belonging to groups. Yet it is one whole big entity or organism that you can call God, source, or even humanity as a whole. Depending on how you look at God, your expectations and how high you place God in your life, your actions can be tainted with the knowledge you received, especially if it was installed at a tender age when you looked at your elders with childlike disabilities and accepted it as the ultimate truth. That is why religions and armed forces seek people of a certain age. Today, it is a crime to have child soldiers.

Just as our cells die and are produced in our body, we as individuals go through the same process to become part of the body of God. That is the real identity of the entity. When, why, and how did the individual lose that identity and become part of a group instead of humanity?

If you can leave your sense of belonging to a group and join humanity as a whole, you can easily feel the connection and understand who and what you are meant to be. But being part of a group limits you as an entity.

Human knowledge is evolving until we reach our potential. Science will give you answers about nature, and the spiritual side of us will give us happiness and satisfaction. Using either one of them exclusively, you miss out on a great deal. You need both. So if someone tells you religion is the only way, ask them if they take medicine or go to a doctor when they are ill. If someone tells you they don’t believe in religion, ask why they are passionate and loyal to a certain group.

Don’t let knowledge divide you. What you are, who you are, what your limitations are, and where you stand on your individual ground are vital to your happiness, growth, and evolution. The individuals who were born before you as adults and who came after you as children are all equals. Your teachers should always be questioned, so don’t take anyone’s word as gospel. Those before you did the same thing to their ancestors. We need to evolve further to have a more mature perspective.

Being the CEO of your life is a combination of accepting what you are and who you are meant to be. You are both the physical computer and the data installed in it. But more importantly, you are the computer runner who controls both. So be honest with yourself. When you say you believe in God, understand that your belief was built on data installed in you by your belonging groups. You are not just the data or the computer. You are beyond all that, so be respectful to yourself and see what you have done to yourself and others. Being happy and content is your right. Do what is needed to reach your true identity.

Since my blog focuses on spirituality, it will always reflect the truth as I perceive and feel it in my soul. I understand that there may be differences of opinion, but I am sharing my truth. If someone sees life through a different lens, I will agree to disagree. I am a proponent of equal human rights because I believe that this new paradigm aligns closely with spirituality and equal justice. Since most governing systems use politics, they cannot be as pure as spirituality and impartial justice. Therefore, no governing system should claim to be spiritual and pure. This is why I believe all religious beliefs should stick to spirituality and stop meddling with political systems.

We are endowed with free will, a sense of autonomy, and human qualities like compassion, forgiveness, sacrifice, and love—all genetically ingrained to function in our allotted time. This places significant responsibility on individuals. We need to become aware and free from political influences in our spiritual matters. We should learn to live and let live, avoiding actions that rob others of love. We should refrain from doing to others what we wouldn’t want done to us or our loved ones.

If you are born into a religious family or are a person who likes to worship and do good, good for you. If you want to pray, then pray, because if you believe it helps you, it is worth it. However, don’t put others down or be prejudicial and discriminate against them just because they don’t believe in God the way you do. As human beings, it is in our nature to have differences of opinion, but we are not yet evolved enough to claim that we know everything there is to know. We must simply accept that we are evolving entities in the process of evolution. By respecting each other’s spiritual sides, we can avoid acting like animals, as we have done throughout history and even in our present time. We have been killing each other regardless of our religious and social evolution. My question is, why can’t we evolve beyond that place to the next step? Why does our politics of belonging trump even nature’s call for humanity to work together?

Our religions faltered when they strayed from spirituality by allowing the politics of belonging to rule their groups, leading to the departure of spirituality from the spiritual system. They disregarded equal human rights yet still claimed to be the only path to God. Our nationalism also faltered when it prioritized the politics of belonging over justice systems and spiritual values. Remember, spirituality should be the essence of religions, and justice systems are crucial for any successful nation because they keep politics of prejudice and discrimination in check. We are still evolving to learn that equal justice is desired by every one of us as individuals. Democratic values can influence and teach our groups by promoting equality. Back to the atom of autonomy: since we all carry it individually, we must learn more about it and use it in our living years.

A long time ago, I took my kids to McDonald’s. They used to get a coloring sheet with their kids’ meals. It had a maze, a picture, and another picture with dots and numbers. If you could read the numbers, you could connect the dots to create that picture and then color it.

I believe there is a picture for all of us, but the numbers are not there. So, the individual has to connect the dots to create their own picture. The real picture is there, but if you are influenced by your sense of belonging to your groups, you may not allow yourself to follow what you were supposed to be according to your hidden picture. You will try to follow what you were taught by your groups at a tender age, influenced by your parents, families, or even nations and religions, not realizing that this has the potential to rob you of happiness and contentment. Remember, you cannot afford to sacrifice your most important treasure: being mortal. Yes, in a mortal life, logically, happiness and contentment should be the most important things one can achieve.

You may be successful according to social standards, but if you feel no joy from within despite your achievements, it may be because of the clash between your influences and your nature.

Being healthy and happy is already a success and a blessing. But what I am talking about is not just physical health; it encompasses all kinds of health: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. The same goes for happiness and contentment—deep, soul-touching happiness. Success is not about what you leave behind but what you take with you, like the satisfaction of being able to reciprocate directly with God. This can help you live a life free from the fear of hell and the greed for heaven.

Health, Happiness, Success.

If you are fortunate enough to become a CEO who understands the political influences of belonging groups, you will know personal mortality in a way that helps you find the right personal picture. This is essential for living a healthy, happy, and successful life despite its mortal nature.

One may lose personal happiness, contentment, and eventually even health by following trends of the time, era, and society they are born in. If they try to create a picture based on influences that do not align with their nature, they may feel successful but lack happiness and health. This is a personal choice and prerogative, but as a mortal being, you cannot sacrifice your whole life for others’ approval. Nor can you spend your whole life trying to fit in, impress, or die trying to be admired by them. Why do we do that and pay a hefty price for it? It is a phenomenon we all need to understand and overcome because it can lead individuals to harm themselves. Like anorexia, bulimia, or even becoming suicide bombers who kill innocent people who had nothing to do with their pain.

Imagine giving a child a picture with no numbers. They would still have to connect the dots to create a picture but would rely on their imagination. This can be fun, but if they are unable to create even an imaginary picture, they will get frustrated, complicating the problem for both the child and society.

That is why there are so many frustrated people in the world. Our politics of belonging is an emotional phenomenon of humanity. It is so powerful that, even being educated, we as individuals don’t care about our health and happiness regardless of our awareness of our mortal nature.

We all have an idea in our minds of how we would like our lives to be, but we must understand the impact of our influences first. We should use not only our personal imagination but be aware of our influences and mortal nature simultaneously before connecting the dots. We can also rely on outside sources like advice from our parents or teachers. If we are fortunate and wise enough, we can figure out a pretty good picture to be happy. If not, we run the risk of messing it up, to the point that we may spend our lives trying to fix it according to our desires while living in discontentment and unhappiness, only to find out in the end that father time spares no one.

A less-than-perfect picture can create personal struggles that can last a lifetime. This frustration can cause adults to act like children and mess up the whole picture or, even worse, walk away from it all. This is a serious problem connected to an out-of-control sense of belonging.

Patience and accepting nature as a guide is the key to avoiding this situation. You also need to have faith in the picture you were blessed with. Examine whether your desires are causing you frustration. Usually, desires are related to societal influences or wanting to be like someone you admire. You need to accept that nature plays a strong role in your life and everyone has a different life story by nature.

I wrote a blog a long time ago about the Ladder of Horizon and the river of time. It was about inspiration along with appreciation.

Picture yourself climbing an invisible ladder with many people above you. You work hard, climbing one step at a time, too slow for your liking but still moving upward. Eventually, no matter what strategy you use or how hard you try, you just can’t climb any further. You get frustrated and angry like a child, but still no progress. This is where you lose happiness regardless of how high you have already climbed. When you reach this point of lost happiness, it’s time to look down and see how many millions of people want to be where you are but you are still unhappy. It’s not about how high you have climbed; it’s your competitive and unaware nature. Being unaware of mortality is part of our ingrained knowledge. If you need to run your computer, remember what a computer and data are and what you are. You live within the computer, which is full of data but has its expiry date. To be comfortable, you will have to come to terms with this. Look up and compare yourself with the people above you for inspiration so you don’t give up and continue climbing. Then look down to compare yourself with the people below you so you can appreciate your blessings. Especially if you want to stay sane in these politically influential times. As a CEO, you should know that the biggest kicker for being on that ladder is not the climbing because no matter how high you climb, you will eventually fall off because of your mortality.

Your mortal nature can teach you about your mortality and help you make decisions from a mortal perspective.

If everyone desired the same thing, how would society function? It would be strange if everyone became a police officer, lawyer, or doctor. Who would build the houses? Simply put, it is not practical. If everyone achieved what they think most people would want to be successfully happy, in reality, it is not so. Many successful people, according to the majority, should be happy, but that is not the case. That is why I believe happiness and contentment of the individual should be the measuring scale regardless of the profession.

Being successful in one area, like finance, building big muscles, setting world records in sports, or being extremely religious, is not good enough for a mortal CEO. Remember, without happiness or health, there is no success. Politically savvy belonging groups always benefit from individuals’ sacrifices, especially CEOs who don’t prioritize personal happiness and health for the sake of belonging.

Don’t sacrifice yourself for anyone but stay true to yourself, be healthy, happy, and content. That’s what being mortal is all about. As a mortal, you cannot sacrifice your whole life for others’ approval, impressing or being admired by them. You should realize how big a price you pay. Being mortal is your most important treasure. By recognizing this, you can gain personal happiness, contentment, and health, and ultimately, you will find peace of mind and be a truly successful mortal CEO.

Depending on how you view yourself as an individual and your personal life, religious or not, we all carry within us that atom of autonomy as human beings. I’m revisiting this concept, which I first wrote about long ago in a blog titled “Five Bucks and Dotted Picture.”

Whoever possesses free will also carries the potential of a CEO, and only a CEO understands how to leverage this “fiver.” We cannot deny that each and every one of us holds a powerful gift from God. Yes, I’m referring to our genetically ingrained ability to exercise free will. This ability to make decisions and choices is what I want to delve into first, as it distinguishes us from all other creatures. Free will not only grants us the freedom to choose but also places the real responsibility of our existence squarely on our individual shoulders. Free will is foundational to my blog because, even though many of us currently do not, I believe we are all meant to be CEOs of our own lives. Those who are not have likely been influenced by the politics of belonging from a young, impressionable age.

Regardless of what our sense of belonging may teach us, as adults, we bear personal and individual responsibility for our actions. Since free will assigns individual responsibility to humans, it not only grants them freedom of choice but also positions them as the third variable in life’s grand scheme, enabling us to challenge all politically accepted truths individually.

This is where it begins.

“Five Bucks: Who and What You Potentially Are and Can Be.”

Metaphorically, each of us possesses a divine “five bucks.” If there were a measuring device for intelligence, strength, and the ability to live for oneself while aiding others, we’d find this wisdom of the fiver. This fiver is akin to the ocean and space combined within a single human. Like an atom, throughout history and even today, it has been overlooked not only by individuals but also by entire populations.

How did we venture into space? How did we discover bacteria and viruses? How do humans go where ordinary creatures with wings, claws, or gills cannot? To me, it all boils down to that atom we possess within. It’s not about space exploration, medical breakthroughs, atomic, biological, scientific, or other technological advancements—it’s about the abilities of individual humans. Scientists may argue about the depths of the ocean or the vastness of space, but I say that’s insignificant; delve into yourself to see what lies within. Your five bucks is the real deal because it is a part of the divinity within you, yet unfortunately, you can also choose to align with the Devil.

Let me illustrate your fiver.

Imagine yourself thousands of years ago standing by a riverbank, wanting to cross to the other side. You see a log floating in the water and decide to use it as a raft. This decision seems simple to you today, but it wasn’t so straightforward millennia ago. First, you had to think, which required the ability to plan and act on your plan. Where do you think this ability originated? It didn’t just materialize out of thin air one day.

To me, it cannot be a random or freak occurrence of evolutionary nature—it’s too complex to be mere chance. You may have a thinking brain and a functioning body like a computer, but you need a “runner” to input the data, as a brand-new computer on a shelf does not function on its own. Picture yourself as that brand-new computer—as a baby, you have the brain and body to function, but how is that computer running? It can’t do so independently. Yes, we may have artificial intelligent life, but even that is created by the “runners.” (Back to the riverbank.)

The next step involves gathering branches, weaving them into a raft, finding a large stick to row yourself across. You might think it’s that simple. But how did all of this happen for one person? Even the sophistication of a worm is complex enough to boggle the average individual’s mind. If you genuinely believe everything within you is a random act of evolution, that’s your viewpoint, and I’m glad not all human beings think alike. Scientifically or religiously, we have our differences. Yes, we face challenges, but if everyone thought alike, our progress and evolution wouldn’t have been possible. So, you build the raft and cross the river.

If we metaphorically value wisdom, power, energy, and the ability to accomplish everything at “five bucks,” it applies to every individual. If the entire community collaborates to construct a bridge, everyone can cross back and forth.

Fast forward to today—look at an individual holding a cell phone and then at humanity as a whole. If a small community contributes their five bucks to build a bridge, what could humanity achieve today? We have bridges upon bridges, space stations, and technologies never before seen in history. Everyone in communities can cross rivers or even fly over oceans in record time. Ever wonder how and why it happened? The basic logic is that while a single individual may be weaker than a large family, community, nation, or religion, it all depends on whether they cooperate and function as a unit.

One can be highly intelligent and have ample resources to employ many helping hands for higher-level functions. However, that intelligence still stems from the five bucks you brought with you from before birth. Moving forward to the present day, the coronavirus is our current reality, underscoring the need to share our five bucks with all of humanity, not just a select few.

Confronting challenges like Ebola, Zika, or COVID-19 outbreaks, combating global warming, tackling internet-related crimes, or even constructing space stations all function best and have the greatest meaning when humanity comes together, each contributing their individual five bucks.

An analogy fits here.

A single human cell seems insignificant on its own, but under the right circumstances, combining two can create something profoundly powerful—a fully functioning human being with boundless potential.

We each have trillions of cells in our bodies. Individually, a cell may appear insignificant, but is it? The entire body begins with that single cell, so the importance of each cell should never be forgotten, even as we accumulate trillions of them.

If a community is defined by the collection of individuals but neglects the importance of each individual due to politics, that community risks becoming obsolete, much like a human body with cancer. With nurturing, individuals can generate ideas to strengthen and elevate the community to its fullest potential.

A child may mimic parents but feel restricted by the comparison to fully grown adults. If the child realizes they are not yet grown, it keeps them positive; otherwise, they might accept their limitations and potentially remain dependent on their parents for life. Depending on how they are taught, individuals may fail to recognize the autonomy of their five bucks, idolizing God and limiting themselves as inferior. If they accept this falsehood, they might pray for everything they desire without using their five bucks.

I draw this comparison between God and the human individual because it aligns with one of my philosophical themes—that the human individual is more important than we have been led or conditioned to believe.

Like children, we often place all our impossible burdens on God’s shoulders, expecting divine intervention in every aspect of our lives. Should you find yourself unable to handle a task, it’s admirable to seek divine assistance, but only after exerting your own five bucks. Just as the individual who built a raft to cross the river and then relied on divine help to navigate safely.

The concept of building bridges within communities and coming together to fulfill our social nature originates from God, speaking through human individuals. Thus, all progress made by humanity is also connected to God. Remember, we cannot function without oxygen, over which we have no control whatsoever. Therefore, everything we accomplish during our lifetime receives assistance from this unknown force, whether acknowledged or not. I believe that both humanity’s accomplishments and divine assistance deserve recognition because one provides physicality and the other spirituality. Trying to credit one without the other is like trying to clap with one hand. God and mankind evolve together, their cooperation shaping our shared destiny. Where are we headed? That’s a question we cannot answer until we arrive, so as mortal individuals, we can accept and embrace the unknown, but collectively, we should earnestly seek to uncover the truth.

Common sense dictates that we utilize our five bucks collectively to evolve, while recognizing the child within us who seeks divine assistance. Recall that all progress we have made as humans stems from our individual five bucks, not miracles. There’s a saying that “God helps those who help themselves,” and there’s more truth to it than we are often taught. If you’re alive, you are already utilizing that help; thus, every human advancement owes something to this assistance.

Even today, with the coronavirus pandemic, many believe God is punishing us for disobedience, yet the majority rely on scientists to find a cure. Expecting scientists to solve our problems is natural because they have historically been our primary source of aid. This reliance has persisted despite claims of divine punishment. These are the same people who advocate for religious authorities to dictate every aspect of human life, including the prohibition of scientific progress—from blood transfusions to stem cell research. Such rhetoric has persisted throughout history and continues to this day.

Unfortunately, solutions cannot be found through prayer alone. In ancient times, we sacrificed innocent virgins to appease God, a practice that persisted until religious leaders recognized its injustice and lack of divine response. Interestingly, despite our evolving knowledge, we only recently understood bacteria and viruses. Humanity undergoes crises and dire needs for change before advancing to the next level. Infectious diseases, the internet, space stations, and global warming have continually pointed to the need for humanity to evolve to a higher plane, embracing change rather than clinging to outdated politics of “us versus them.”

God acts through humanity, one individual at a time. Beyond miracles, all physical manifestations of God are often attributed to individuals who embrace faith. Within each of us lies the ability to make good choices, a significant part of humanity’s progression. Knowing that God’s plans are inevitable brings about our self-assessment and makes us realize that the individual within us is more complex than we originally thought.

This is another triangle one has to understand and come to terms with. In the triangle of love, I divided love into three components: Passionate love, Instinctive love, and Universal love.

After equally dividing it, another triangle emerges in the middle, which I call the core triangle and needs to be divided into two parts. By nature, you as an individual consist of a physical side and a spiritual side. Since we have free will, potentially we all are CEOs. Everything comes together if you, as a CEO, can create balance from within. Otherwise, it can be chaotic for you as an individual because if you are influenced by the politics of belonging, you can individually suffer the consequences. So, as a CEO, you should choose to create balance to live a successful mortal life.

Not knowing and understanding love yet living in society can be problematic if one is not a CEO. Learning about the ability to love and be loved, putting things in perspective, can help live a richer mortal life. Love can be as simple as a four-letter word, or you can delve into it to connect it to everything you do as a human individual, spiritually or physically. I divided love into three equal parts and then into two more components. Let’s see how you can use this knowledge to enhance your life.

Knowing love as Passionate Love, Instinctive Love, and Universal Love, and balancing it all including the core of the spiritual and physical sides.

Passionate Love

Instinctive Love Universal Love

The core of the love triangle is divided into two sides. The balance of these two sides depends on the individual, so the spiritual and physical sides of the core are related to this triangle.

You as a CEO

Spirit Physical

Remember I talked about the pendulum—if you pull too much to one side, it will swing back out of control as well. As a mortal human individual, we need to enjoy being physical and spiritual equally; otherwise, mortal life is not ideally lived. God and you reciprocate, so instead of worrying about the carrot and stick philosophy, try to create balance within. God can easily say, “I gave you free will for a reason; why didn’t you use it?” As long as you are committed to spiritual reciprocation, you get to enjoy all the physical bounties God has offered to human beings. If you choose to become celibate like a priest or don’t eat, it is your choice. Would God treat you any better if you commit spiritual crimes in private? Well, you get my point.

Discovering the pain of love loss and core balance.

The strength of the physical side, related business of robbing love or hormone-related rage, revenge, and politics of belonging, is a human fact no one can deny, but we need to evolve and constantly evolve. Our group politics have been in control to keep us in line by force. One has to comply with all the traditions, customs, rituals, and rules of belonging groups, including going to war and killing opposing individuals regardless of their guilt. If their crime is just belonging to another group, it is not a good enough reason to be killed, plain and simple. Regardless of your reason, if you do kill someone, you are robbing someone’s love. That has been a tradition of humanity, and it has to change because we have evolved far enough to understand the pain of love loss, but we still are not evolved enough not to inflict the same pain on others.

Personal actions of robbing love, even from personal relationships to organized killing of each other as groups, need spiritual understanding. If you have an understanding of a CEO, not only could you balance the love triangle, but you can balance your animal or physical instincts with spiritual strength as well. Otherwise, under the political influences of your belonging groups, you will forget about your personal mortal nature and carry on living as an extension of your belonging group. You will disregard your free will in the name of politics and actively keep participating in the business of robbing love. Just look around the world—mob killing of people who look different or belong to opposing groups is common even in this day and age. Our history is full of these examples.

Being a CEO is crucial for all free-will-holding human individuals because our actions should be in the best interest of living a mortal life not only with happiness and contentment but spiritual satisfaction as well. Our wrong decisions can have deep effects on our spiritual and physical well-being. Our health is intertwined with the balance of our core triangle. If you live physically—like eating good food, living in a nice house, driving a nice car, and life is good physically—yet you could be starving spiritually. Food for the soul is not physical; it’s action-based spirituality. If you don’t feed your spiritual side, you may end up unhappy, discontented, or worse, depressed, regardless of all the nice physical things in your life.
