How can we heal the world?!
Question from the Internet:
“Can the world be healed?”
Yes, and we have the remedy. But as with most medication, the “pill” we need to swallow to heal the world, to heal ourselves is bitter.
What is wrong with the world?
I am wrong with the world!
There is only a single root cause for all the historic and contemporary problems, crisis situations, and wars that threaten our individual lives and collective existence: the same, 100% self-serving, self-justifying, subjective and egocentric nature, the inner program that drives all of us.
Knowingly, unknowingly we all define and assess ourselves in comparison to others and we all thrive to be better, greater, stronger, wealthier, and more powerful than others which in itself is not a problem. But then we also thrive on ruthless, exclusive competition and we survive, succeed at each other’s expense and our real pleasure comes from the failure, suffering of others when we can prove ourselves above them, gaining control over them.
Most people are honestly unaware of this inner software driving us, nevertheless, we are all the same, and it depends only on our individual “hunger”, drive, willingness to sacrifice ourselves and others and on our actual conditions how much our “true colours” come to light.
Thus the bitter pill we need to swallow — after learning the unpleasant, shocking diagnosis — is that in order to heal the world, to heal all of us, we all need to change, correct, and further develop ourselves. We do not need to, we must not try to change, correct, censor, defeat, or destroy others, we do not need to, must not try to manipulate the world around us to make it suit our subjective, egocentric viewpoint, benefit.
Only by changing our viewpoint, only by changing how we relate to others and the world around us can we heal the world. And since this is completely against our instincts, original “software” we need a unique, purposeful and highly practical method to provide the tools of the remedy.
