Can we sustain peace and build crime-free societies?

Question from the Internet:

“What does the world need for peace to reign even if it’s just for a year or two? Is it ever possible for the world to live a crime-free life?”

In order to achieve sustainable peace or a truly crime-free life, we would all need to learn how to act above and against our inherent nature.

Inherently we are all driven by a 100% self-serving, self-justifying, egocentric and exploitative nature. We all define ourselves in comparison to others, constantly thriving to be better, higher, stronger, more powerful and wealthier than others. All our life is an incessant, ruthless and exclusive competition where we all enjoy succeeding and surviving at each other’s expense.

This is how we are programmed by birth, this is what differentiates humanity from other animals and the rest of Nature. So on one hand, this selfish, egotistic and exploitative human program drove our incredible development through millennia and on the other hand, this human nature is now taking us to the threshold of self-destruction.

But besides the insatiable and ever-growing human ego Nature also gave us a unique human intellect, capable of critical self-assessment and initiating fundamental self-change and self-development.

The time has come for us to finally use this human intellect, to recognize that by blindly following our inherent program we will self-destruct. Then we can also learn how to further develop ourselves and reach Nature-like mutual integration between us above and despite our instinctive qualities and attitude.

When we implement this and build positive, constructive, sustainable mutual interconnections, when we establish Nature-like, mutually responsible and mutually complementing cooperation in order to facilitate our collective life, then we will have peace and crime-free societies.

Then, instead of constantly making calculations about what I can take from others for my own, selfish sake, we will constantly make calculations about how to support and serve the whole collective, since the life of the individual and the life of the whole collective becomes one and the same.
