First of all I want to clear one thing that I am not under the influences of any one particular religion nor I try to follow political side of any religion. My goal is that we all individually take charge of our personal actions and understand where do we stand in the holy world of God. I personally believe God is not a political entity so God can’t be prejudiced or discriminatory against anyone who does not follow particular and God’s favorite religion. I am born Muslim and don’t intend to change to any other religion because to me they all are paths to God and should be treated as such otherwise we may commit spiritual crimes like prejudice and discrimination against other human individuals. My questioning is not for the spiritual side of any religion, I am trying to point out wherever they get tainted by the deadly human politics of belonging to their groups. Where our politics of our sense of belonging takes over the individual to commit spiritual crimes instead of being spiritual. Since we simply can’t get away from the politics we have to individually have to become a CEO of our lives so we can judge for ourselves. If we have to strain out the politics to be spiritually fulfilled we should be able to do it.
My writing is for the individual who looks up to their religion for the spiritual fulfillment. Interestingly their religion’s politics of sense of belonging inhibits them to find that essence of religion because religions openly preach and deny the individual their relevance. They treat human individuals as an animal who needs to be controlled by the way of carrot and stick philosophy. By making the individual believe that they are irrelevant they not only rob individual’s self-esteem they are able to control and conform. If the individual gets stronger religion’s grip or influences get weaker so they preach against individual relevance. Since this has been going on for thousands of years, it has been and still is a process of brain washing the individual who has to deal with personal feelings of being inadequate, unimportant, irrelevant or simply being a sinner as well. With low self-esteem and self respect they have to attach themselves to the next best thing available and yes that is the group of people they belong to. They have been brain washed in believing that God is on such a high pedestal that they are not worthy of being directly connected to God yet in reality it is quite the contrary.
If the purpose of creating fear of God is to bring people to become good and spiritual then the intentions are good and acceptable. If the intentions are to use that fear of God to gain control and use people and even God politically that changes everything. If are good because of fear that does not make you spiritually good because as soon as that fear is removed you will become what you really are. Being real and spiritually good requires faith which is just for the love of God and personal responsibility to reciprocate. Most interesting part here is that the atom of autonomy you carry within is aware of the reasons of you being good. That is why good or bad deeds don’t happen automatically. We individually and collectively are responsible for our actions. As growing up I read a poetry in Pakistan which I don’t remember who was written by so I am going to say author unknown. It said that and I quote.” IF INTOXICATION WAS IN THE ALCOHOL THEN THE BOTTLE SHOULD DANCE,THIS IS MY PREROGATIVE THAT I DO A DRUNKEN DANCE .” END QUOTE. In the end of the day we are all responsible to either enjoy or do a drunken dance. We all enjoy the drink of God but how we response to it, still is our responsibility because that atom of autonomy related free will is still there. We drink and choose to dance for the better or worse or worst. Remember you are the one standing by God as an individual to convert spirituality into physical actions so you are an equal partner in the business of reciprocation. If you are the equal partner with God almighty how can you not have self-esteem? How can you be irrelevant? Who are these people who tell you otherwise and why?
Away from the politics of sense of belonging and within the personal and especially mortal skin we all have our own atom of autonomy you may call it God particle. With that within, you simply are responsible for everything you do good or bad. One can ask how can God let you do bad things? Well if you know the real story of the human individual before political interventions, you would understand that as well. Since we have been blessed with atom of autonomy, which blesses us with not only free will but with personal sense of justice, compassion and a whole lot more which I call our spiritual jewelry. Unfortunately influences of our politics of sense of belonging has the power to strip us down from all that. Irrelevance related low self-esteem and lack of self respect leads us to secure ourselves by fitting in, impressing or trying to be admired so we end up making decisions to become material focused animal life. We are told that you can’t be directly connected to God. We assume that life just revolves around physicality so our spirituality takes a back seat or becomes a weaker aspect of our individual life. Then we are taught that it is not you it is the Devil who is making you do all the bad things which gives us a way out of personal responsibility. If you are feeling that you are not strong enough, have no self-esteem or self respect. Lets start with the real story of reciprocation with God and the politics of belonging infected religious beliefs.
Me, me, me and I, I, I did this and that is a clear sign of a disorder which points towards lack of self-esteem and self respect because if you have it, you would not want to seek the approval of the others by telling them your importance. You don’t have to tell them the real story of how you feel within. Especially if you don’t want to acknowledge the help you have been receiving, if you don’t even acknowledge the vary fundamentals of spirituality you have a spiritual flaw. Not only you don’t acknowledge the help, you claim it is all your doing which is discrediting that help altogether. What is I and me? Remember that I and me is only functioning because of the real, legitimate and crucial help. If you can’t even live without that help, how can you not acknowledge and yet shamelessly claim that it is all your doing. Your every action related achievement is dependent on the facts of your inabilities to function independently so that me and I are not as exclusive as it may appear to you. Understanding and acknowledging that help is a door way to not only making us humble but spiritual awareness as well. Even God does not claim that God is doing everything that means God humbly accepts that spirituality needs to be converted into physical actions by the human individual. This clap is making a physical sound by working together. When you put God on the high pedestal human individual loses importance, that is why religious leaders have been and still are claiming human individual is irrelevant because God is doing everything. My question to them is how does God’s work get done? Its done with the physical help of human individual so before the politics real picture of spirituality is all between God and an ordinary human individual. You can believe all you want to but this reality is a repeatable fact, no matter how you cut it you can’t deny the importance of human individual. Since human individual can’t do it without the help so there is nothing exclusive about it. I and me is only important after the inhaling free oxygen and favorable conditions of both internal and external universes.
Not being humble is one thing, taking credit is an other but discrediting everything other than me and I just takes a cake of destroying personal spirituality. Sure I and me is important in this picture but just like God I and me should be humble and honest. By going against what is sitting deep within you can have consequences, if you falsely claim for something what you know is not exclusively done by you are trying to hide your inabilities. Especially if you believe that you and God are separate and different entities you automatically would want more of what you lack, power that is. Not only that you unfortunately or fortunately are aware of your mortal nature which makes you insecure and you think low and down about yourself. If you can understand and create balance from within. You would not credit yourself and discredit the help you are receiving for your physical actions. You can not only discover an antidote for your spiritual flaw like low self-esteem you would discover that me and I is not that exclusive but an inseparable spiritual and physical us.
Since I am Muslim I am going to start with what I had learned. In order to become a Muslim you have to say these words. There is only one God and prophet Mohammad is God’s prophet. Then you have to take an oath that you are the witness of God’s oneness and prophet Mohammad’ prophet hood. In Christianity Jesus claimed that I am the way. Clearly things don’t look so bad in all that. Our troubles start when we think that we somehow become better than all other human beings who don’t believe in what we believe. Is that a personal and individual flaw or is it coming from the education? That is for you to decide after reading this. For me I believe if you are a prejudice and discriminatory individual you are living in the wrong era. This is the era of equal human individual rights so there is no room for racism, bigotry, prejudice and discrimination. If you can’t make any amendments in your taught knowledge regardless where it is coming from you are responsible for your actions. Remember pope has come out and acknowledged equal human rights so you can do that as well.
If Jesus said that I am the way or prophet Mohammad is the way you individually will have to look for the reasons of our problems. If you are too passionate about the politics of your sense of belonging you would never look or connect the politics of belonging as the cause of your spiritual problems. You would not question so you would never see the politics behind the religious statements.
If you go with the first part where it says there is only one God, this is where you will have to add a human individual standing side by side with God because without human individual God is at least logically not a physical entity. Human individual is the main character of this holy picture. If you want the proof, picture God as a fabric made with the thread if you pull one or two or ten threads out there is no physical damage to the fabric but if you keep pulling until there is non left. Now is the time to look for physicality of the spiritual entity. The importance of the human individual is clearly seen in this example but if you want more examples I got some more of them. Say there is a haunted house but there are no people to talk about or to be scared from, does that haunted house matters or to whom. Then if there is a town with all the streets, bridges, buildings, houses, electricity, plumbing, and everything what a town needs to be a town. Now take all the human individuals out and see what happens to that town? Then there is a lily in the forest pond where no human eyes are there to appreciate its beauty. Everything points towards the importance of human individual in the holly picture yet when our spiritual systems get infected with the politics and we follow our belonging groups or religions we all become the extensions of our ideologies and lose our standings in the spiritual world of God.
Simply a spiritual God and a physical human individual who does God’s physical work. There is nothing wrong to add prophets to give us education to become decent human beings. Trouble is if you really stick with spiritual teachings but when you say only the people who follow our prophets would go to heaven and everyone else is going to burn in hell that is as political as it can get. Especially if it gives a belief of being becoming better than others who don’t follow that path of prophets. That does not only create prejudice and discrimination amongst people it makes even implicate God as a prejudicial and discriminatory entity who is for some but not for all. Still there is nothing wrong if you believe all that political rhetoric but when you start to kill each other, I feel that I have the duty to speak against this unholy business of God.
When you say prophet Mohammad is the way or Jesus is the way there is nothing wrong with it until you say there is no other way to God. Personally I believe if someone saves lives by putting work in like the inventor of Insulin should be closer to God because every life is a living breathing physical hand converting spirituality into physical action. If someone prays five times a day fast and is devoted Muslim but decides to kill someone who does not believe in God like them. If you get up one day and say lets go to Christian crusade, go and kill some people in the name of God. If you form a group of like minded people which makes that group exclusive to God but deny God to those who were not born into that group, have not been exposed to your religious ideology or don’t believe in the path you are on. Discriminating against sometime even innocents can go against the atom of autonomy sitting right within you. Your politics of belonging has the potential to take you on the wrong path yet in the name of God. If you ignore all the signals coming from within and carry on believing what you are told to, you may would be taking a U turn from spirituality to get into the arms of the politics of sense of belonging to groups.
If God does not speak against or for, there is a good chance we would use even God politically. Meaning it would be between God and a group of people not between God and a human individual. If God does not speak, whatever the group says goes. And yes even if the group says that a human individual is not worthy of connecting to God directly we would believe it and sometime passionately. Now if you feel, see and are told to believe that you are insignificant, irrelevant, unworthy and even are a born sinner. You would never have self-esteem related self respect to even see the real picture of you standing significantly beside spiritual God. Turning spiritual things into physical actions. What God had meant for you is to be a CEO of your life but you are too busy protecting your political belonging to see your own individual importance. Proof of direct connection of the individual to God is in a spiritual fact of reciprocation where every single individual is capable of converting spirituality into physical actions. Unfortunately our insecurities are capable of turning us around and do the bad things as well and sometimes for our political religions.
If saying prophet Mohammad makes you Muslim or following the way of Jesus makes you Christian, simply there is nothing wrong about it because they taught and preach us to be the followers of spirituality. Our troubles start when we start to dispute and deny the real part of being spiritual. If you deny spiritual God and individual as the physical part of God you simply have converted your religion and God into political parties and reduced human individual including yourself into worker bees and warrior ants. Your reciprocation to God which was the purpose of your life to begin with took a back seat to your religious traditions, customs, rituals and rules. Sure you can label yourself as a Muslim, Christian or any other human identity but denying first identity or the first part of the real story will eventually lead you away from spirituality and even make you commit spiritual crimes yet in the name of your religions. I am not in the business of changing religions or simply preferring one over the other. I am all about not forgetting about spiritual story before political interventions. Spiritual God and human individual are two hands and one simply can’t make a meaningful sound so they both have to be there to convert spirituality into physical actions. What does that really mean to you? Well if you can’t see how politics got into the spiritual business of God you simply would not become a CEO of you life. If you can’t become a CEO you would not be able to question how, when and why you and your belonging religion became a political party instead of a spiritual entity? How you got infected with the prejudice and discrimination related spiritual crimes? If you are not a CEO you are an open game for the political figures to use you as an extension of their group. Yet God wants human individual to be with enough self-esteem to not only question political influences but to stand by God to convert spirituality into physical actions. Remember if human individual is not there spirituality can’t be converted into physical actions so you can run around claiming to be Muslim, Christian of whatever you want to be called. You can label yourself as a religious, non religious, nationalist, gender biased, black, white, brown, red, yellow or whatever you call yourself to be part of your belonging group but the bottom line is that you are a human being who stands by God with or without any other identity to convert spirituality into physicality. That reciprocation is not only the purpose of your life but it is a duty. If you help some but not all you are not only being prejudiced and discriminatory yourself you are making God as such entity as well. If you do that it is nothing more than politics so your individual understanding is a must to really understand the holly world of God. Remember politics and spirituality can’t be mixed one is nothing but the truth and the other is twisting and turning of the truth to benefit belonging group’s interest. If you are looking into your religion beyond your politics of sense of belonging and are in it for the spiritual satisfaction you have to understand your authority and standing in the holly picture by becoming a CEO of your life. You can be a CEO and still belong but things would never be the same. There is nothing wrong in belonging to any human group until that group wants us to work against spirituality.
If you are bombarded with the education of you being irrelevant and insignificant you would not have a self-esteem of a CEO and you would not question the politics of belonging. You would not even see yourself as the real and main character of the holly picture. All you would see is your belonging group dealing with God related issues yet in reality group depends on you as an individual as well just like God. Remember the ghost town, haunted house, lily in the forest pond and the fabric of God with the human individual as a thread what a fabric is made of that all apply to the group as well.
First part where spirituality meets with physicality is more important than your politics because that is the real and holly picture. Does that mean I deny all religions? No, no one has to change anything but putting each other’s knowledge down and especially killing each other in the name of politics of belonging groups. Remember I did not say religions because our politics of belonging is not only able to infect our religions it goes far beyond that. It crosses the lines of all kind of human groups, from gender to race to nations and tribes no one is safe. As long as we have insecure individuals with no self-esteem related lack of self respect there would be people using people and God politically. Main problem with that is that as groups we tend to lean towards politics of control exclusively, so spirituality takes a back seat whenever it comes to making decisions. Groups would not make spiritual decisions because their politics calls for self preservation and self preserving groups would most likely be prejudiced and discriminatory and yes even if they are religious groups they would twist and turn the truth in favor of belonging group. A clear sign of this politics is a common fact it most popular religions regardless of their differences they all believe in individual’s irrelevance. Yet in the real picture a spiritual clap is not possible without the existence of human beings.
Regardless of all the abilities God might possess there would be no benefit to anyone if all human beings are gone so the value or importance of God can become questionable. On the other hand if as human beings we don’t understand ourselves we end up living like an ordinary creature. We may display certain animal traits regardless of our civilization and evolution. As an ordinary individual we have to understand self regulation and discipline to even be a human being. Religions have tried using carrot and stick philosophy but it did not do the job because our societies are riddled with all kind of crimes. Personal regulation is an individual thing and if an authority is around one can play safe as soon as that authority is not there the whole control falls apart. Fear of God falls in the same category, remember God does not speak so if God does not pull ones strings people would commit crimes so education of being a spiritual being reciprocating changes the whole thing for the individual.
For us human beings life related troubles show up when we stray and let our untamed animal related domination traits take over our spiritual side. In the Animal Kingdom and even in urban jungle this domination game is played constantly. From personal relationships to business to business of God it has been and is in the process of evolution yet our animal traits are still to be tackled with. If it is kind of confusing for you to understand you must learn to respect and balance these urges to be spiritually aware human being otherwise there is a good chance you can spend a whole life time in confusion. Dominating others for personal comfort and gains has been and still is a problem because we not only cause each other problems our collective behaviors result into wars. Our politics of personal and collective life overpowers our personal sense of justice and we could all end up paying the price with not only individual sufferings but with our constant and perpetual revenge killings and wars.
If everyone can understand our animal side we can learn why do we even have the urges to dominate others. As we individually become aware of the personal sense of injustice, especially when it comes to collectively us attacking the other groups regardless of justifications, we may begin to be aware of where these actions may lead. Things can get a lot less complicated if we choose to live our life as a spiritually mortal being, this understanding has the potential to create peace within and collectively as well.
A Personal sense of justice is not hard to get if you follow two simple rules of spirituality. First don’t do to anyone what you don’t like being done to you or to your loved ones. Second: Walk a mile in another persons shoes to understand how they are similar to the shoes you walk in.
When politics takes over a spiritual system like religions, we come up with all kind of excuses to dominate the conquered ones. From looting to degrading to committing spiritual crimes in the name of religions, yet interestingly religions claim that they are trying to teach us spirituality. If you want the proof just look around the past history and in our present wars. It has been and still is consistent but I hope it does not carry on into our future. If we all belong to our chosen groups our politics would keep us doing what we have been doing for millions of years. If we at a personal level emerge as a responsible of individual actions meaning evolve to the point to become one humanity then and only then we can get rid of our past animal like behaviors. The difference between the other animals and human beings always boils down to inhibitions. If you let your animal side take over or let your inhibitions down because of the substances or emotions you will end up letting the animal dominate your actions regardless of your level of education. Education was suppose to be the sign of our evolution and civilization but regardless of our progress in every other area we still lag behind in dealing with our animal side. Which would not allow us to spiritually evolve to become a compassionate human being.
I believe the politics of our sense of belonging to our groups have done enough damage to our personal spirituality. It is time to strain out the politics of our sense of belonging to our groups and learn to appreciate the real essence of being a human being. Since spirituality is our essence and it directly connects us individually to God and humanity as a whole. Regardless of the religion, if you bring your personal spirituality to the fore front, humanity can come together as a whole. Otherwise the politics of our sense of belonging to our groups would always keep us into our ancestral pigeon holes.
If we individually can learn to treat each other as a working hand of God, we can learn to join each other regardless of the differences. If the religions take out their politics of sense of belonging to a one groups of human beings the doors of spirituality would open for them otherwise they would lose their credibility. Most of the nations and religions openly preach to their citizens that they are better than others just because of being part of that nation or religion. This kind of education leads their belonging individuals to false self-esteem related prejudice and ignorance. Regardless of the level of education people start to stand against the human rights and commit injustice in the name of their belonging group willingly.
Humanity, equal human individual rights and equal justice to all is far more important than any religious rule, tradition or ritual because of spirituality. If you can cross these lines of religious and national rules, traditions, customs and rituals and if you can respect the human individual as God’s working hand. You personally will find spirituality and if the number of like minded people grows eventually humanity will find spirituality. Equal human individual rights are the gateway to that path and politics of sense of belonging to our groups instead of humanity is a hurdle. If you don’t change anything, politics would make you do the same what you have been doing for thousands of years. Remember to look to what are the possibilities with the weapons of mass destruction. Politics of belonging mixed with religious passion can be deadly for the humanity and God’s existence simultaneously. To be spiritual we must respect each others rights instead of following religious traditions, customs, rituals and rules blindly we need to strain out our politics from our individual religious beliefs in order to benefit from having a religious belief.
There is no room for injustice in spirituality simple as that. A group can’t violate even one individual’s human rights. That is why religion’s spiritual side have been compromised. In order to rule a mass of individuals, a successful political system is required so keeping our belief systems politics free would help the individual to become spiritual. In reality if you want to rule and run government, you can’t really have a fool proof system. There would always be a pick and choose situation so we need our justice system free of political influences. Spirituality should be in the foundation of all justice systems and a justice system should be separate from the governing systems. That is why religions or any other sense of belonging to one particular group based system would not work as a governing system. The best way to deal with this problem is to keep the religions and our justice systems spiritual. Where an individual can take the state to court and win is a good justice system because you can’t hide behind the politics of mass. Why and what would be the reason for us having a justice system? This kind of Justice system is there to help the weak and if the weakest wins against the strongest you can’t ask for more spirituality related justice otherwise if you taint your religion or justice system with politics everything fails.
If you are in a relationship with the politics of domination in mind in today’s social systems. You are heading for the problems because we don’t live in the caves or bush anymore where security system was different. Today we have given that power to the big brother or you can call it governing systems. Individual security still matters but the security system has changed. Governments or religious ruled big brother system has been around for a long time but has always been questionable. Is it working for the individual? There has always been a politics which preferred the mass over the individual so even if it was an injustice, the individual would lose. Since the individual is the essence of humanity they should be respected and given justice. No one should be above the law not even the governing powers or even religions.
Being mortal makes it a lot more important for us to be responsible for our happiness. Reliance on Big Brother has not brought us the security related justice, happiness and contentment we have been longing. By having more guns, wars and related problems like death, depression and anxiety is a lot more common now than in the past. When expectations develop and are not fulfilled, personal weaknesses become greater than they are. Lack of a belief system and personal weakness is directly related to the understanding of personal value. As a human individual we are directly working with, not for God nor for our belonging groups yet as an equal reciprocating authority. Which brings us all individually at the equal footing as a sub contractor not a servant, so know your place. If you pull your load honestly, whether its as a partner, family member, community member or simply reciprocating to God you will have less stress but a lot more self respect and self-esteem. Being comfortable in your mortal skin is closely related with your personal input and sense of justice.
If you get free oxygen and are alive with a good health, your thanks giving should not only be once a year, your ability to live is not in your control nor its in your family’s, community, nation or religion’s control. It is directly connected to the source or you can say God. Living on the face of the earth in an external chaotic space and then with in the internal totally chaotic yet organized space is as complex as it can get. Sure you have a say but after all the complexities have been in alignment for you personally. If you still think you are functioning at your own will then just look around and see how vulnerable a mortal being is.
When you are taught or you think and believe, it is all your doing, whatever is happening in your life you are not fully comprehending what you may be missing in your own personal sense of justice. To comprehend this requires you to educate yourself so you can avoid situations that may cause you some related anxiety, depression and other mental health issues. It takes away the importance of the most important thing in your life, that is your individual happiness. This makes most of us puppets and slaves of our belonging groups because we are made to feel weak, fragile and insignificant. We are mortal and that is a reality so this temporary life should be lived fearlessly collecting every happy moment along the way. If any thing you have to sacrifice your happiness over, is coming from your belonging groups, so should be looked at and judged with your personal sense of justice.
By no means am I preaching selfishness. I am simply stating the fact of mortality which needs spirituality more than our political religions. No one should take personal responsibilities off of their shoulders and hide behind the politics of the group God and Devil. If the belonging individual does not ask questions, the belonging groups become too strong to be questioned. The story of the individual weakness related unfulfilled life begins if you don’t take charge of your own life. Do you really have a say? If you ask this question to yourself in the dead of the night, the answer would come and point you to your God given free will.
There are two things in common in all human beings regardless of the differences. They are Oxygen and free will. Ask yourself, do you appreciate them? If you don’t, do you believe that you are a human being God had meant for you to be? Since you are not programmed to be a weak puppet or slave of your belonging groups and not even to God, how can you let it happen? Simply go back and stand with spiritual God to help converting spirituality into physical actions with the CEO who is a subcontractor themselves. Understand the power of politics of belonging but at the same time seek to be a CEO of your mortal life. That would not only bring you spiritually fulfilling life but it would bring you self-esteem, self respect, significance, relevance and deep contentment for being God’s right hand in making things actually happen.
Equal human rights, civil achievements, racial and sexual justice, national and religious freedom are all relate to the march of humanity towards its potential. There has always been and still are hurdles like religious extreme and racial superiority but we are climbing on step at a time. Sure we have back and forth but still there is a net gain today because through out the world people are speaking for equal human rights. From human sacrifice to killings of homosexuals to racism to slavery and all kind of prejudice and discrimination against each other have been changing for the better but not fast enough. All because of the politics of sense of belonging to our groups. Personally I believe we are evolving and progressing in all areas but it is kind of lob sided when it comes to our religions, racism and nationalism that means politics of belonging still rules. If we can over come that we would evolve to take the next step rapidly to join humanity as a whole.
Unfortunately all along every achievement has been claiming human lives, there has always been strong resistance against the progress by our own kind who don’t want to change status co. The lessons of the history are, that if you want to get something you have to fight for it. Yet even if it is good for the humanity we still have to struggle against our conservative fellow human beings. Regardless of us having the ability to discuss and debate, some how we can’t look at or intentionally ignore to look at our incomplete knowledge. We have gone through kingdoms, empires, communism, socialism and now we are going through democracy yet still struggling with some kingdoms and authoritarianism. Unfortunately we can’t stray from our ancestral knowledge even if it has been proven wrong. As human beings we are not only taught to believe that our ancestors can’t be wrong, we actually are expected to protect their traditions, customs, rituals and rules as well. Our education has been to respect, protect and sacrifice and to be loyal to our belonging groups. That is why even this day and age of equal human rights our news are full of racism and prejudice related injustice and religious conflicts. For humanity change has never been easy, reaching for the potential or journey of evolution requires peeling of the layers and layers of personal and collective insecurities. Our politics of sense of belonging to one particular family, gang, community, nation or a religion has been our down fall. If we are born to human family as a human individual we automatically belong to humanity but our politically influenced education of sense of belonging teaches us otherwise. If we learn to belong to humanity we would be able to see, that in reality the humanity is just one beyond all the politics of divisions.
Individually we all need to be an evolved spiritual entity who can and does convert spiritual thoughts into physical actions. By now with all the evolution and civilization related understanding we should be able to peacefully debate and discuss our way to changes but we are far from it. Our political and religious disputes related wars are still on going which is a clear evidence of that. Unfortunately we can’t carry on that way because on one side we have been evolving with nuclear weaponry but on the other side we are unable to evolve spiritually. A politically influenced emotional human being with animal urges and a finger on the nuclear button can be a deadly mix. Our evolution is not balanced we are not only constantly putting each other’s knowledge down we have been carrying along our ancestral disputes as well. We have never been able to live in a peaceful time and after all that civilization and evolution we still can’t even discus and debate in civilized manors.
Balance is not easy to achieve even at the individual level, never mind collectively. Our disputes have largely been the product of the politics of sense of belonging. Our social changes and everything in between have never been with out the influences of the politics of belonging. We have been use to of the changes brought down by the top down philosophy. Since the top spends money and influences to keep power by force individual has always been a weaker participant until recently. Today belongs to the era of democracy and equal human rights. Individual is being educated to be a CEO who can see and read the politics of the power. These changes would shift from the bottom up instead of top down. That will allow us to debate and discuss so the decisions can’t be made by the few who have the special political and personal interest in gaining and use powers to fulfill their personal and group related agendas. How and what changes in the future by our individual awareness? Where would it take us as humanity? Would we go back and forth or we change everything including our ancestral differences, disputes and related wars? Can we change and evolve from our present day level of civilization? What would be our potential? Since we are an evolving entity our knowledge is still incomplete and even our potential would be constantly evolving with us, so where are we going?. One thing is for sure that we know in the business of reciprocation we all have to pull our share equally to be healthy, happy and successful. Remember if you are not healthy you can’t be happy and if you are not healthy and happy there is no meaningful success whether it is as an individual or collectively.
