Individual power and uniqueness for the sake of the whole

Question from the Internet:

“How is an individual using her power right?”

This is a very important question in our times when we started to realize that we exist in a globally integrated and interdependent world.

As a result of our inherent nature, we got used to thinking, making decisions, and acting on our own, we got used to pursuing individual success and whether we do it consciously or not, this individual success most of the time comes at the expense of others.

On the other hand, we also know that any attempt to suppress or erase our individuality, our unique abilities, and aspirations backfire, and even if people agree to subdue themselves towards others for a while, later this subjugation turns into a violent explosion, as we cannot restrict the power and uniqueness of any individual.

So we have reached a unique turning point in human development, where we all have to learn how to harness and channel our individual abilities and powers — without suppressing or erasing anything in us, but specifically recognizing and refining our uniqueness — in a way, that using our individual powers and abilities is not only good for ourselves, but at the same time, it is also beneficial for everybody else.

This requires a unique rearrangement of human society in a way, that each and every individual finds their most optimal, mutually responsible, and mutually complementing place and role for the whole. In such roles, we can all fulfill our unique, crucially important, and irreplaceable purpose, while also justly and proportionately receiving everything we need and deserve in order to maintain that crucial mutual contribution.

We do not need to reinvent anything. This is how the whole system of nature works, this is how the cells, organs, and subsystems of our own biological bodies work in order to maintain health and sustain life.

And while it seems that human beings are “behind” the rest of nature and we are destructive by default, actually the fact that we have to consciously and willingly learn how to conduct this mutual integration that nature’s other elements do instinctively by default, which gives us complete internal attainment and understanding the whole system which other parts of nature do not have.

This consciously purposefully acquired internal attainment will elevate us to the “truly Human” level in nature’s system. We will become the system’s only fully conscious, seamlessly integrated, and at the same time independent observers and equal, benevolent partners.

This all depends on learning how to use our individual powers and abilities for the sake of others and the whole system, while we maximize our individual powers and abilities.
