Solving problems by helping each other to recognize the problems
Question from the Internet:
“Why do solving problems mean helping people who have problems?”
Problems always involve people. We are the only conscious beings in Nature that recognize problems and try to find solutions for them.
Animals live in Nature instinctively, completely controlled by their internal program. They do not consciously recognize problems; they simply act according to blind instincts within the framework of Nature’s laws and processes.
Human beings seemingly exist outside of Nature. We can look at the system independently, like an expert examining a system, how it works, and what problems or dysfunction might appear that need fixing.
This apparent outsider status, our “expert” viewpoint on Nature, also has its drawbacks. Since we are “outside” of the system — from our viewpoint — we do not actually understand the system. We assume we know and understand what is happening; we establish our arbitrary theories, philosophies and sciences based on our wild assumptions, all made from our inherently egocentric and subjective viewpoints.
So by default, we always have problems since we are incompatible with nature. We live in an artificial human Matrix as we try to force our misunderstood incompatibility on Nature.
Thus, on one hand, we have a useful, independent and external viewpoint on Nature’s lawful and complex system; on the other hand, specifically, because we are “outsiders” to the system, we can’t use this “expert viewpoint” since we do not understand, we can’t research the system “from within”.
This is why human history is a chronicle of the myriads of recurring and intensifying problems humanity experiences within and towards Nature.
And again, on one hand, it is good, since recognizing and trying to solve problems develop us. On the other hand, as long as we remain “outside of Nature” with our egocentric and subjective viewpoint, this development is futile, and instead of improving our situation, we are digging ourselves deeper into trouble.
So we need a unique method that allows us to become Nature’s fully integrated and compatible parts as if dissolving into the system by acquiring similarity with it through rebuilding human connections and human society based on Nature’s finely balanced and mutually integrated template.
And since we have to do this consciously, willingly and purposefully by our own efforts, moreover, we have to do this above, and against our inherently selfish, egocentric and subjective internal program and instincts, even after integrating with Nature, we will not lose our independent viewpoint and research capabilities.
This is how we can become Nature’s only conscious, fully integrated, independent observers and equal partners.
Thus we solve problems by helping people — ourselves, all of us — to recognize why we are having problems all the time and how we can make problems disappear by changing and further developing ourselves, our view of reality, and our attitude to everything.
