POWERFULLY CONFUSING SENSE OF BELONGING IN THE ERA OF EQUAL HUMAN INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS.

Recently George Floyd’s killer a police officer got a jail sentence of twenty two plus years. I have been and am still writing about the politics of sense of belonging for years and it directly connects here. I believe a crime is a crime regardless of who commits it, who is it committed for and why? Our justice systems and spirituality suppose to be about truth and nothing but, but is it? Trump got into American justice system with his politics to the point that things are not cleared up even till now .

Fact is that before all our given identities, we are human beings and are totally responsible for our actions, our spirituality says it our justice systems say it. If we use our free will in all other departments of our life, we simply have no excuses to individually hide behind the politics of belonging. Whether you are an ordinary citizen, police officer, military soldier or a religious fanatic, no matter how you cut it, simply you are responsible for your actions, sure you may join your group as a job or a cause you are still responsible for your action. It is just like drunk driving, before you get in the car you should know if your judgements are impaired, because once you get in and start to drive you become responsible for everything even if its considered an accident. If you choose a profession whether it is military, police or religious extremist segment of people, you should know where it is going to lead. It is kind of obvious, isn’t it. You may believe that you are doing good for your belonging group, community, nation or religion but when it comes to the politics of belonging and you end up committing some spiritual crimes responsibilities still land on your personal shoulders. Remember you have been blessed with the free will, God or even other people who suffered from your actions can easily say that did you use your free will.

Trouble is when it comes to our groups we have different standers set up for everything, and when that politics gets involved everything takes a back seat including universal justice and our personal sense of spiritual justice. For humanity that has been the case for far too long. Interestingly today things are changing and even our populations are speaking up against our past doing just look at the Canadian news about the graves being found. Never mind sexual abuse this takes it to the next level altogether. I am not trying to compare George Floyd case and Canadians finding hundreds of unmarked graves of Native children, I am going after the cause. I remember not too long ago Justin Trudeau apologized for crimes committed by, then in power British who brought their Roman Catholic religion to Canada. Who created residential schools to educate and conform Native population just like Chinese are doing with their Muslim population right now.

Unfortunately when it comes to the politics of belonging, whether it is a nation or a religion they all end up treating the opposing groups with passion even if their spirituality keeps calling for compassion. To me it is obvious that they removed or stole com from compassion and carried on doing bad political things passionately. Since religions implicated God by saying we are doing all that in the name of God, I would wonder how God would be feeling about that. I don’t think anybody has forgotten the sexual abuse scandals of Roman Catholic priests yet and now these graves of Native children. What does it say about the people who actually believe in God? Where are the people who at least should come out and call for apologies from the religion, and the nation which was responsible for those people who committed those crimes. Why and how spiritual crimes are covered up, coated with excuses and not accepted as group crimes? Sure it is our individual responsibility to take charge individually but if people are brain washed with politics of belonging they would not question their belonging group but actually accentuate opposing others politically. I am not taking or picking any side for anyone, my focus is to find and connect the causes of our individual behaviors so we individually can eradicate the reasons. Live together as human individuals belonging to humanity instead of its pockets or groups.

All our court systems would fall flat on their faces if we personally did not have the individual responsibility and judgment. If our belonging groups have the ability to brain wash us, its not the strength of our groups its the individual who is weak and irresponsible so our problems stem from this individual irrelevance. For thousands of years our groups have been making the individual believe that they are nothing without the group and we have bought into that and lost everything what God had equipped us with. To me as individuals we all have to become a CEO of our lives so we can actually take responsibilities of our actions and become what we were meant to be. We have to get our relevance, self respect and self-esteem back because we are not born sinners but influenced to believe what our groups wanted not what God wanted to be. We all should make sure we don’t drive drunk or blind folded by the political sense of belonging. Sure there would be people who would not agree with me but logically our nationalism and extreme religious beliefs are all designed to make us individually weak and vulnerable. We seek sense of security with the price of not being a CEO who uses personal sense of justice. Remember we come with our own atom of autonomy, God particle, free will, personal sense of justice, compassion and love. If you seek security in belonging groups do so but not at the price of selling your spiritual soul because that is what makes you a complete human being. If you are missing spiritual side you are nothing more then another creature and you don’t have your human identity. Since you are not following God’s order of evolution, you are not pulling your share and Godly cart is going in circles not because of God its because of you.

Remember our justice systems became popular and accepted because they are touted to be blind and universal just like our spirituality. They both suppose to be pure and respected by us all individually. Unfortunately when politics of belonging gets a hold on people and our groups collectively get involved even our individuality is lost. Respect of justice and spirituality gets lost because of it got tainted. Interestingly it has nothing to do with real justice and pure spirituality. Logically its weaker not the stronger individual who buys into the politics of prejudice, discrimination and commits acts of injustice to give all the powers to their belonging groups. So who is really responsible, individual or the group? This question is not for the groups of people nor for the individual exclusively but it is for the humanity as a whole. George Floyd case opens a rabbit hole, humanity should have gone in centuries or even thousands of years ago. If we are going in it now, we should go in it all the way so we can take a next step in our evolution. Humanity needs to create new laws around the world as well so equal human rights can flourish everywhere equally.

We have been committing genocides and war crimes in the name of our groups, whether they are committed by certain race, gender, nations or religions is the issue. Individual weakness has been, is and will be for a long time to come but today’s individual awareness is going to change everything. We have been committing these crimes against each other for far too long so if the individual is punished with the crime they will think twice before they commit the action. If everyone becomes aware they would not do to others what they would not want to be done to them and to their loved ones. Times have changed Canadian government has recently apologized over and over because they have been and keep discovering unethical and clearly unjust brutal acts against Native population and now even the kids.

If you individually know that your belonging group would have to apologize for your actions you would restraint from committing such actions. Anyway we are in this rabbit hole now so lets make sure to go all the way and really fight the cause. Politics of sense of belonging to our groups is not above but below our individual decency, compassion, love and personal sense of justice. As I say a human individual is created or born as a CEO of their life, so they should assume their respected spot. Top corner is the one where we all belong our own atom of autonomy makes us all a CEO.

CEO

SENSE OF FREEDOM SENSE OF FREEDOM

Question is why do some of us question and some of us don’t question our behavior? Again it is related to the phenomenon of politics of belonging to our groups. Present day news should open this discussion and not only bring the main issue out in the open but deal with the deeply rooted causes of the issues as well. Our main causes are individual weakness and personal insecurities because we deliberately ignore justice when it is committed by our belonging groups. We are taught to find security within our belonging groups and interestingly when it comes to our real security our groups fail to help. Most of the crimes committed against us individually are from our own belonging groups related people. We make a big political fuss when it is committed by our opposing groups and even go to wars against each other just to commit the same crimes against each other. If an individuals consider themselves as a CEO of their lives they would know a spiritual crime is a crime regardless of who it is committed against. They would not commit the crime whether its against opposing individuals or belonging individuals because they would have to go against their powerful atom of autonomy sitting right within which teaches them to use personal sense of justice.

SENSE OF BELONGING SENSE OF FREEDOM

CEO

if you strongly feel and believe in being Muslim remember before that you are human being. If you are Canadian, American, Christian, Jewish, Shea, Sunny or Hindu again you are human being before these identities, so no matter how you really feel, your political belonging is after your physical reality of being a human being. If you have been taught and you really believe that you are all for your belonging groups, ask yourself where do you fit your atom of autonomy related free will and personal sense of justice? Remember you have been created as a CEO. Not genetically programed as a worker bee or a warrior ant so you owe some respect to your creator. If you feel your loyalties are for your belonging group and they override your personal sense of justice, you have to learn to be what a spiritual being like human being needs to be. Put yourself on the top corner because God has blessed you with your personal atom of autonomy.

IF YOU ARE IN ALIGNMENT WITH YOUR ATOM OF AUTONOMY, SKY IS THE LIMIT FOR YOU. YOU HAVE NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT, SECURITY WHETHER ITS IN YOUR LIVING YEARS OR BEYOND.

AS ALAMA IQBAL, POET OF HE EAST SAYS, AND I QUOTE. “WHY ARE YOU FALLING ON A PIECE OF GRAIN LIKE A SPARROW, KEEP YOUR FLIGHT HIGH, SO YOU CAN BECOME AN EAGLE”. End quote.

Politics of our sense of belonging becomes a powerful villain, its able to make you commit crimes and make you believe that you are committing them in the name of God. A double whammy against you individually. Its crucial for you to become a CEO because by nature or God it is you who is assigned to create balance between your sense of belonging and sense of freedom. If you are unable to do that you still are responsible for your actions. If you don’t even assume your CEO status how are you even going to learn to create balance between your opposing senses.

When guilt is used as a tool by the parents, community nations and religions, it maybe considered as a good and productive emotion to set moral foundation. To me all those morals can be always on the shaky grounds if this triangle is flipped. For instance you may learn sense of belonging is so powerful that you have to memorize everything and be a good person according to the group out of fear. Never forget as soon as that fear is taken down your morals may fall with it as well. If the triangle is right side up you are the CEO of your life and you have to create balance between opposing extremes like our animal side and spiritual side. You would understand the real essence of the morals and would not only restraint because of the pain of public shame you would set a personal gauge by envisioning your slef on the receiving end of your actions prior to committing them.

If this triangle is upside down as human individual we become subservient on one extreme and on the other we become an animal but as a CEO on the top we can create balance between the two extremes. We can become an entity we were suppose to be. This triangle has to be right side up with you on the top so you can play your mortal game of life. Don’t forget this triangle has been flipped for a lot of people for thousands of years so they don’t even know that how it has been adversely effecting them. Political education of our belonging groups has been designed to brain wash and conform us all. Rate of that educational effects adversely on the individual believing in their own irrelevance. They even have had the power to make us even forget our personal and individual mortality. If you are unable to put this triangle right side up, you may suffer its consequences and live a life which is literally smaller than potentially you could live with the right side up. Especially when it comes to our mortality, it should matter to all of us personally. Being a CEO you have to put all departments of your life in order to run your life like a successful business otherwise you may live with the guilt you were suppose to benefit from not harmed by it.

You would be inclined to join into traditions, customs, rituals and usually you would follow the rules of your groups, especially if your sense of belonging is on the top and is over ruling your ability to create balance. Its your personal weakness if you let them lead you to become a worker bee or a warrior ant. Without questioning you become a comparable to genetically inferior creatures especially if they are leading you to become a prejudiced and discriminatory being. Being blessed with your personal atom of autonomy related abilities like free will, compassion, love and personal sense of justice you yourself are a God like figure and are clearly a lot more than just genetically programed creatures. Three things become clear here for us human beings, first everything is not meant to be. Second we have the ability to physically make right and wrong choices. Third if we are weak, whether its because of group politics or personal nature, we would stick with the group to feel safe and even relevant. Meaning it would rob us of our individual and personal faith in ourselves and God with that kind of brain washing, God would take a back seat to our belonging groups. Interestingly in some cases groups use God as a tool to keep the individual weak and insecure as well so they both God and the individual can be used politically.

Most religions have traditions, customs, rituals and rules to make belonging individuals perform things together to keep them connected to each other and to the group. This does not only make individuals fulfilling their social needs met it brain washes and conforms them to the point that they learn to obey the rules. They don’t only encourage parents to conform kids, the force them by giving them boundaries and rules with physical and spiritual consequences even in the life after death. Hell and heaven or carrot and stick philosophy is openly used to keep the individuals in the group and in line. Carrot and stick philosophy works exclusively for the animals and to me human beings don’t stand in that line up, God or not we break rules if they don’t make any sense. We come in a class of our own because we bring along our own and personal atom of autonomy, our spiritual side which helps to self regulate. If you want to see the proof just Google the list of most happy nations and nations with the lowest crime rate. People self regulate not because of carrot and stick philosophy but by encouraging and flourishing their spiritual side. If you promote spirituality based education they would know the reasons and understand, instead of fearing from the punishment to follow the rules. Interestingly those happy and low crime rate nations are not even religious nations. Spirituality crosses all lines of religions that is why good and bad people are present in all societies. Morals are not exclusively coming from religious teachings so to me it should be a matter of shame for the religions because they could not produce or meet two basic and fundamentals of a human society.

I was even able to change my son’s cat’s behavior by simply keeping food in his plate all the time. He came to me because he was getting sick quit often, he was given food twice a day, which he would gobble down as if he was not going to get food again. I was told to feed him the same way but I wanted to know the cause of his getting sick so instead of giving him less food I gave him more so he could build a trust within himself that food will be there all the time. Interestingly he modified his eating and ate a little bit at a time and even slowly instead of gobbling it down. That self regulation came from him and we figured out the problem of getting sick.

Remember self regulation to follow the ethics, morals and rules even believing in God are the things of that trust and belief which needs to be established by right kind of understanding. For instance if your physical realities are not fulfilled your metaphoric realities would always be on the shaky grounds. In the nut shell what I am trying to say God is our metaphoric reality just like love but they both can be relevant if our stomachs are full and we have that trust. Don’t believe me ask someone who has not eaten for days or are extremely thirsty, what would be their priorities. Yes our physical priorities should be first to take care of regardless of what your belonging groups say. Communal law and order can’t be enforced and expected to be followed if the population has nothing to eat or drink. Sure some people may die for love and God but our physical realities are way too powerful for everyone to be at that level. Our communities should know that a hungry and insecure population may be control by force temporarily but that crime rate would be an other thing. A parent of a hungry child would easily become a predator because pain of the love loss is too great, interesting twist isn’t it. Our crime rate always would depend on our physical realities.

Human experiment which took a while but it has lead us to our current social dilemmas and related problems. Differences and gap between 1% and 99% has been around for a while but these days it is showing its strains on humanity. Internet and information is exposing these flaws of nature and humanity. Protecting 1% by law and order is only possible if every body’s food and water is secured. We all can see that history can repeat itself, remember communism, if you start to look for its causes or how it showed up? When people are hungry because of others habit of hoarding and governing authorities protecting them. Pendulum swings so even strong governments fall with time, religious beliefs or not. Our physical realities would always prevail so the sooner you learn the better for all. If you want to or are willing to see the reasons of lower crime rate and higher happiness levels in people you would have to see those societies governing systems. I am no socialist but I would not mind our societies collect best of both sides to come up with a balanced approach. These societies have some socialist principles, some capitalism related and best of all they have most spirituality related principles. All is found but the extreme of any thing. If you are being scared of socialism, be scared but as a whole and extreme package. Anything at extreme, creates dissatisfaction in some people but if its in most people sooner or later you got the problems coming. Communism failed nearly a century of experiment because of its extreme mass over the individual which is a spiritual injustice. Religions are failing as governing systems as well because of their extreme mass over the individual justice.

I heard in the news even Saudi Arabia is opening casinos, the most conservative Muslim nation which is torn between individual freedom and controlling the population. America is in trouble because of extreme capitalism yet a neighboring nation Canada is at much higher spot on the scale of population happiness level. I can relate that to some of the socialist principles to keep population form worrying and that has something to do with raising the rate of happiness. You don’t have to go bankrupt if you or your family member gets sick. Sure we all have to pay taxes but to me everyone should look at the taxes as our spiritual reciprocation. Which personally helps me to believe that I am fulfilling my spiritual duties. If you are satisfied there you are feeding your soul as well so over all if you are not worried your happiness level in all departments of life are higher. If you are eating the best, living the best driving the best but you are still not fulfilled, just remember your soul may be is starving. As human beings we are an entity which is not exclusively physical nor we are exclusively spiritual so creating the balance all that is our personal duty. As a mortal being our happiness is crucial so if anything is robbing you of your happiness try to eliminate it and every now and then look at your mortal nature to keep yourself in line. Whether you are religious or not if you personally want to assess the level of your real happiness or want to see if you are feeding your soul, simply look at your reciprocation. If you are living at a regular physical creature’s life level you may take, take and take to be smart. But as a human being we are a little more complex than that. We carry a message of evolution in our DNA so we can’t be satisfied by simply meeting our physical needs nor we can stay still regardless of our progress. Trouble is that individually we need to keep our mortality in front of us because we can’t deny that.

When I talk about spirituality it is and it should be just like the justice system, NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH. I know it this point of time it would be impossible to govern humanity with pure spirituality and justice. Our politics is unavoidable because as humanity we have accepted our political truths. So we literally are stuck at the level, where not only collectively but individually as well we can’t let go of our politics of belonging to our groups. Having nearly two hundred registered nations with their states, provinces, communities, races, religions and even their sects based groups are our present day reality. Which not only keeps several of them at war against each other, it makes nearly impossible to install social justice and spiritual principles equally in the humanity as a whole. Interestingly popularity of equal human rights around the world is showing the potential to educate humanity over and above its groups.

If you critically look at our governing systems and see which one is the closest to spirituality. Kingdoms not only create cast and class system they raise even one human individual so far up that it clearly takes spiritual equality out of governing. As I said, regardless of physical differences, all human beings are spiritually created equal so kingdom may work for some but spiritually not even close. If we are all made of the same substances scientifically, physically that would make us equal. Our mortality, the way we come and go in and out of life is literally the same so genetically that makes us same. Our needs of oxygen, food and water to survive, being born, grown, getting sick, old and die make us same as well. We all enjoy or emotionally get hurt from the same things so what are the differences and where did they come from? To me everything being a human points towards equality. Biggest difference between people is their knowledge and its impacts.

You can have a Mullah, Priest and Rabbi inspiring people with passionate speeches to go to wars, kill and get killed. Not only robbing love but committing spiritual crimes yet in the name of God. Since we all are created equal in every way, especially spiritually by our creator. Our spiritual leaders should preach equal human rights openly but, instead of equal human rights, acceptance and peace we are preached politics of sense of belonging related prejudice and discrimination. You can have scientists inventing medicines to save lives regardless of people’s color, race, gender, nationality or religious beliefs or you can have scientist inventing nuclear and biological weaponry to exterminate lives all depending on the individual strength.

Just like that knowledge itself is a weapon or medicine but its intentions and real life effects should be looked at critically. Intentions and spiritual character of the human individual makes all the difference. Wealth and power of any individual does not dictate superiority because they face the same fate as anyone else. This should cover not only the kingdom but dictatorship as well because kingdom and dictatorship just can’t be counted differently. Next are our religions, religious people not only believe their system is the best they even get God involved as well so using God for political purposes is common. Opposite to kingdom and dictatorship they create and follow mass over the individual philosophy. Which is very close to socialism but still they can’t be close to spirituality regardless of what they say about God. Remember I said nothing but the truth, so even injustice against one individual can’t be connected to God and spirituality so politics is politics even if it is coming from religious beliefs. Since spirituality and justice go hand in hand and are or at least should be nothing but the truth. In the days of kingdom and dictatorships putting them above other people has been a clear injustice. Religions put a whole segment of population above others so that fails the spiritual test as well. We simply can’t use our metaphoric realities over physical realities of others, just like Roman Catholics did against Native kids. Injustice against living breathing human individuals is a spiritual crime so no God can’t be implicated in the politics of governing. If it is a matter or land dispute come out and say so don’t get God get involved in it. Regardless of politics of belonging, with real justice you simply can’t kill someone or rob someone of love in the name of God.

Sift through our history and see how many spiritual crimes have been committed yet in the name of God? I CAN BET EVEN THE BEST OF YOUR MODERN DAY COMPUTER’S HEAD WOULD SPIN TO FIND THE RIGHT NUMBERS AND UNFORTUNATELY IT IS STILL GOING ON.

Regardless of how good they look on the surface communism and socialism are especially for mass over the individual so again they lose out because of that injustice. Putting power in the hands of few does not do the justice for the individual so no it is not close to justice and spirituality. Closest way to spirituality and justice is to give equal human rights to the whole humanity. Trouble would be insecure individual’s knowledge to even value democracy, they are still stuck in the world of belonging to groups so even democracy is not perfect without the individual being a CEO. Since we are stuck in the level where individual insecurities related politics of belonging to our groups is still very popular. People can’t see the real merits of democracy when it comes to spirituality and equal human individual rights. Democracy removes superiority of all kind because of one person one vote. Prejudice, discrimination, racism, gender bias, religious differences, Godly, ungodly, or even atheists all human beings are measured by the same scale. Sure its not perfect but democracy is the closest thing to spirituality. By far the best governing system so far humanity has come up with but unfortunately people who are passionately blinded by the politics of sense of belonging would not be able to see it.

If you bring it all the way down to the individual, we all can offer equal human rights to each other especially if we are able to receive them. Unfortunately as groups we would fight against them because we lose political power and control. Remember we have been, are and will always be evolving in all departments of our lives including our knowledge of all kind. Not evolving in certain areas but keep going in other would eventually create imbalance and that can be deadly for humanity as a whole. If you believe in your holy books and preached knowledge of the day of destruction, you may believe it has been predicted and meant from God. My problem with that is that if God meant that, why we are the one who has the powers to make choices? Why we are the one who convert spirituality into physical actions? Why we are the one who is blessed with the atom of autonomy related free will to choose and a nature to evolve, all from before birth. Why would God put that on our shoulders to choose? If we would have listen to our religions as human beings we are on the bottom corner of the triangle so God and Devil become the main characters of this holy picture.

What about our free will and our physicality to make things happen or give spirituality a life. Remember all good and bad would seize to exist if human beings don’t give physical help to create those physical realities. Don’t you want to believe that we can work against the day of destruction especially if it is coming to us from our weapons of mass destruction. If we are able to understand and see global warming trends why can’t we see the reasons of why our religious groups stand against our scientific progresses? They stood against blood transfusion, stem cell research, artificial insemination and you name it they would oppose it yet they keep benefiting from all the advances humanity has made to make their life easier. They go to the doctor just like everyone else to get modern medicine to carry on living but opposition is a common practice for them. We should know that if we can stop them from throwing virgins over the cliffs we can carry on evolving optimistically and we may would be able to work against the day of destruction as well. Just look around what is happening, sure we still kill each other with our politics of belonging but look closely how effective we are against infectious diseases, global warming and in medicine. Remember we did not listen about the blood transfusion which probably have saved billions of lives and still is saving lives yet everyday. Its not only by the blood transfusion but by keep advancing in all areas of life. If we would have believed in everything what religions have preached to us we still would be throwing virgins a physical reality over the cliffs to please our metaphoric reality. Not to forget God knows how many lives have been saved by our knowledge of where the storm is heading. Remember our ability to predict weather did not come from the people who were throwing virgins to please God.

Knowing our importance is crucial no matter how you cut it, holy picture or governing picture they all are dependent on the human individual. Human individual is the life and blood or the essence of it all. Disrespecting them is not only disrespecting human beings but disrespecting the creator as well. No matter how they twist to make God and Devil on the top corner of the triangle it simply does not work if you remove the human being from the picture. It is against spirituality and justice if you don’t acknowledge the right full actor of physicality. I would like to attach myself to my creator by speaking my personal truth and noting but the truth. I mention it as my truth because I know I am a human individual and am still learning new things every day so I can’t claim my truth as ultimate truth for everyone. Especially when there are billions of us so having difference of opinions is inevitable. If your truth is helping you to become a good and decently evolved peaceful person you have it right regardless of your religious beliefs. But if your truth is tainted with the politics of belonging to your group exclusively and making you prejudiced and discriminatory or making you believe even God is a prejudicial and discriminatory entity you are being pulled away from justice and spirituality. Not only you are being unjust you are implicating God in it as well so you are not standing for justice and spirituality. Your believing that God is in it as well can be a sin you maybe committing in the name of your political belonging, so my suggestion would be to at least not to give a bad name to God for your politics. To me if you undermine human individual because of your religious beliefs or politics, you are disrespecting yourself and God simultaneously. If humanity respects its core and essence it will be for equal human individual rights. Equal justice to all and that would be nothing but the spiritual truth so don’t be confused about it because you are the CEO of your life you have the powers and understanding to live in the era you are born in.
