Individualism as is being understood presently seems to be a misplaced concept. When man can’t survive in complete isolation and is dependent upon multitude of things- air, water, sunlight, food and most importantly is ‘social animal’- then how can anything be even thought in terms of an individual? An individual can’t exist! It is a symbiotic existence only! The world exists because it has ‘others’ in it.
Some excerpts from the documentary Zeitgeist:
World peace will be a reality only when we believe: My country is the world and my religion is to do good. There would be no reason for peace to be found or attained!
Challenging one’s systems usually results in insult as apprehensions for being wrong is erroneously associated with failure. When in fact, to be proven wrong should be celebrated for it is elevating someone to a new level of understanding, furthering awareness. There is no such thing as smart human being, for it is merely a matter of time that their ideas are updated.
Earlier, people didn’t know about how nature works, so they invented God in his own image! A guy who gets angry when things are not done right… who brings floods… destruction. All religions have common threat. Religious beliefs have caused more fragmentation than any other ideology! Even every religion has thousands of divisions!
Moreover it is the propagation of false assumption of separation through rejection out of symbiotic relationship of life. There is no such thing as independence for the whole universe is a unified system of interdependent variables. Each cause with a reaction! It all depends on how well we connect with the world around us.
My future generation can’t hope to inherit a sustainable, peaceful and socially just world unless every child growing in all the underdeveloped countries can also hold same expectation. We have to see that whole world is our community and not just of humans but a community of plants, animals and human… we need to take care of the whole community!
To be environmentally as well as socially aware and sensitive! That’s what will bring joy and pleasure… sustainable! We can call it spirituality… but the fact is joy comes from bliss of connectedness!
I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final world in reality - Martin Luther King Jr.
When we understand that the integrity of our personal existences are completely dependent on the integrity of everything else in our world… we have truly understood the meaning of unconditional love.
For love is existentiality… seeing everything in you and everything as you! For you are all everything as one.
The real resolution is the resolution of consciousness.
Each one of us first need to eliminate the divisionary materialistic noise we have been conditioned to believe is true. To understand is to transform what is.
