Feeling the Suffering of Natural Reality: A Journey Toward Integration and Redemption
Abstract
This article explores the inherent interconnectedness of natural reality as a single, integrated system, contrasting it with humanity’s egocentric and destructive tendencies. Drawing parallels between biological systems and nature’s broader framework, it argues that human consciousness and intellect provide a unique opportunity for self-awareness and transformation. Through a purposeful method and a mutually committed environment, humanity can shift from a “cancer-like” operating software — characterized by selfishness and exploitation — to one aligned with nature’s selfless, loving, and bestowing qualities. This transformation, driven by a recognition of cosmic pain and a surrender to a singular governing force, positions humans as conscious observers and benevolent partners in natural reality, capable of alleviating systemic suffering.
Introduction
Natural reality operates as a single, all-encompassing, and fully integrated system where all elements — inanimate, vegetative, and animate — are seamlessly interconnected, serving the whole selflessly and unconditionally. This mirrors the functioning of the human body, where cells, organs, and subsystems work in harmony to maintain the organism’s optimal state. In the body, this mutual integration gives rise to an “overall consciousness,” through which we associate our personal existence with the collective entity. To survive, we instinctively care for the body, ensuring each component fulfills its unique role. Nature’s system reflects a similar dynamic, with each part sustaining the general balance and homeostasis essential for life.
Yet, when we examine humanity within this framework, a stark contrast emerges. Unlike nature’s harmonious integration, individual humans perceive themselves as separate from others and from the broader natural reality. Driven by an inherent, egocentric operating software, we prioritize self-serving, self-justifying, and subjective calculations, often at the expense of others and the environment. This article posits that while this destructive programming is evolutionarily ingrained, human consciousness offers a pathway to recognize and transcend it. Through a methodical, proactive process of self-change within a specialized environment, humanity can align with nature’s selfless qualities, fulfilling a unique role as conscious, integrated observers and partners in reality.
The Nature of Human Disconnection
Humanity’s divergence from natural integration stems from an innate sense of separation. Each individual inherently exists for their own sake, making decisions and actions that prioritize personal gain, often exploiting others and nature. This perception is not only self-centered but also limited and biased; we notice only those aspects of reality that reinforce our exploitative existence, consuming and destroying for our own benefit. Remarkably, we remain largely unaware of this behavior, as it is the default “program” we are born with — a modus operandi we accept as normal.
Even when we observe selfishness, egoism, destruction, and exploitation, we attribute these flaws to others, absolving ourselves in every situation. This self-justification blinds us to our role in the broader system. Evolution, operating beyond a single deterministic plan, has purposefully installed this “cancer-like” software in us, rendering humanity a disruptive force within nature’s otherwise balanced framework.
The Potential for Conscious Transformation
Despite this inherent programming, evolution has endowed humans with a unique consciousness and intellect, offering the capacity to recognize the harm of our original software. Through willing and methodical effort, we can develop a conscious desire to change, aligning ourselves with nature’s all-encompassing system. This system, governed by pure, selfless, and unconditional love and bestowal, creates and nurtures life through qualities diametrically opposed to our egoistic tendencies.
Such a transformation requires a radical, 180-degree shift from our “unnatural,” destructive state to one that complements nature’s loving and bestowing principles. This process is not innate but acquired through a specialized method and a mutually committed environment. By practicing nature-like integration against our inherent egoism, we cultivate a similarity with nature’s system, enabling us to fulfill our high human purpose: to become fully integrated yet independent and conscious observers and benevolent partners within reality.
The Method and Environment for Change
Achieving this transformation demands a deliberate approach. We must first acknowledge that natural reality is governed by a single, all-encompassing force with a predetermined evolutionary plan. This force installed our original egoistic software and is the only entity capable of upgrading it. Our role is to recognize the need for this upgrade and foster an irrepressible desire for it — a process facilitated by a unique method within a supportive, mutually complementing environment.
In this environment, individuals practice mutual integration, committing to exist solely for the benefit of others and the system. This requires nullifying personal calculations and needs, instead sensing and fulfilling the desires of others as dictated by their needs. Through this method, we harness natural developing forces that clothe us in qualities of absolute, selfless love and bestowal. These qualities neutralize and redirect our insatiable desire for fulfillment, channeling it outward for the sake of others and the whole.
Feeling the Cosmic Pain
As we progress, a newfound sensitivity emerges. Instead of focusing solely on our own needs, we develop an empathic connection to the suffering of humanity and nature, caused by the human ego’s relentless consumption and destruction. This “motherly” pain — akin to a cosmic anguish — arises as we associate with the system’s brokenness, lamenting the absence of love and bestowal in human interconnections. This suffering radiates harm throughout the natural system, intensifying our resolve to integrate and establish mutual guarantee, where each commits to serving the collective above self.
This state of true love and bestowal transforms us into transparent pipelines for nature’s healing forces, alleviating systemic pain. However, the journey is arduous. The more we strive for this radical self-change, the more our inherent ego resists, pulling us toward self-serving desires and pleasures. These temptations, orchestrated by the single governing force, reveal our weakness and dependence on egoistic impulses, pushing us toward despair and self-subjugation.
The Breaking Point and Redemption
Only through total surrender — reaching a state of a “hopelessly broken heart” — can we genuinely demand the necessary upgrade from reality’s governing force. In this moment, we reject existence unless freed from our ego’s grip. This breaking point, attainable only within the special environment and method, marks the pinnacle of transformation. Here, mutually devoted members leverage even negative traits — like envy and craving for respect — to inspire one another, relying solely on the governing force for true assistance.
Upon reaching this surrender, we gain the ability to build nature-like integration. As pure pipelines, we channel life-creating and nurturing forces to others and the system, experiencing the “contentment of the whole” as reality heals through our network. Our purpose crystallizes: to partner with the system as humble, purified conduits, ensuring our ego remains powerless. Any disruption awakens profound pain, reinforcing our responsibility for the system’s life.
Discussion
The emotional impressions cultivated in this environment — sensitivity, pain, and love — become the foundation of our eternal role. This living network sustains our purpose, enabling us to serve as willing contributors to the general life force. The contrast between our original “cancer-like” state and the acquired godly qualities underscores the transformative power of conscious effort and mutual commitment.
This process reframes human existence as a question of “life or death.” The more we align with nature’s system, the more we recognize our prior destructive tendencies as intolerable. The method and environment thus serve as both laboratory and lifeline, guiding humanity toward redemption and partnership with reality’s singular force.
Conclusion
Humanity’s disconnection from natural reality’s integrated system stems from an egoistic operating software, yet our unique consciousness offers a path to transcendence. Through a purposeful method and a mutually committed environment, we can shift from destructive selfishness to selfless integration, becoming conscious observers and benevolent partners. By feeling the suffering of the system and surrendering to its governing force, we unlock our potential to heal and nurture life, fulfilling our highest purpose within the vast, interconnected tapestry of existence.
