Learning to unite above, despite what separates us

Question from the Internet:

“How do we unite people in the political spectrum and make a progress, when we debate with the opposite side the context always won't be heard, and when we have dialogues with the same side it didn’t make a progress also because of one-sided view?”

We have absolutely no chance to unite people according to the political spectrum, or according to religions, nationality, or any other areas where we are separated along clear lines.

We can never unite as long as we focus on what divides us and we try to “agree” - in other words, convince others that we are right - at the same level. As Einstein also expressed, we can’t solve problems at the same level they were caused by.

If we want to unite, build mutually responsible, mutually complementing cooperation - which has now become a survival necessity in the global, fully integrated and interdependent world we evolved into - we need to learn how to build connections above everything that separates, rejects us from each other - while all the differences remain!

We have to learn how to connect while we have rejection below it, how to love (meaning true, natural love, serving one another unconditionally) above, despite instinctive distrust, animosity.

For that we need to identify unique, overall, common, mutual goals, purposes, potential rewards that are more important than everything else, like a magnet elevating is above the “instinctive minefield” between us.

One such immediate common, mutual goal is our collective survival.

After all, we can’t survive in a global, integral world by trying to succeed at each other’s expense, like all onboard drown on a ship where people try drilling holes under each other.

If we learn to unite for the sake of collective survival we will discover much more, ever more important common goals, attractive rewards that come from a single, mutually responsible and mutually complementing Human society.

But let’s start with the collective survival - in the 11th before seemingly inevitable self-destruction!
