How can we build strong and stable communities?

Question from the Internet:

“What makes a community strong and stable?”

As long as we build our communities, our human societies based on our inherently self-serving, self-justifying and exploitative nature — regardless of the philosophy or ideology we use — our communities and societies will remain unstable and in turmoil.

As long as we blindly follow our inherently egocentric and subjective worldview and calculations we will inevitably continue the helplessly recurring, vicious historic cycles until we completely self-destruct.

In order to build strong and stable communities — and in our globally integrated and globally interdependent world it has to include the whole of humanity — we need to learn from Nature the laws and principles of living, mutually integrated systems. Then we will have to apply those laws to ourselves and rebuild our interconnections and the fabric of human society based on Nature’s finely balanced mutual integration.

As integral parts of Nature’s system, we cannot continue stubbornly experimenting with our arbitrary and baseless human philosophies and systems. Either we reach compatibility with Nature or we have no right to survive Natural evolution.

Our unique Human advantage is the fact that we have the ability to consciously and proactively learn and implement this Natural integration with each other and the whole system. This conscious and purposeful self-development will make us “truly Human”: becoming similar to Nature above our instincts and acquiring a special on one hand seamlessly integrated band at the same time independent observer status within Nature.
