The powerful Human brain serves our ability to wage war — against our own ego

We have a powerful brain - unparalleled in Nature - to help us wage war, but not in a way that we think.

Our powerful brain is not in order to fuel, direct our usual arguments, debates, wars, the exclusive, ruthless competition against others.

Instead we need to learn how to use our powerful Human mind, intellect capable of critical self-assessment for the unique inner war that had to develop in us as we evolve further.

In our generation we have everything in front of us - all the historic experience and present day picture - to realize that the root cause of the recurring vicious historic cycles and the present, deepening, seemingly unsolvable global socio-economic crisis is the selfish, individualistic ego that drives us.

We can use our unique Human intellect for this recognition - as if looking at ourselves from the side - and to initiate a seemingly “supernatural” self-changing process to rise above the ego and to learn how to channel, has its awesome power towards positive, constructive goals, purpose.

We need the powerful brain to help us develop the unique Human duality that is unparalleled in Nature, holding onto the original selfish ego and above it clinging to a completely opposite, selfless and altruistic intention, aspiration.

Then we will become able to make truly free choices and also develop a new, much improved, upgraded consciousness, perception of reality that unfolds, opens between the developing contrast.

This unique ability is unlocked only when we interconnect our Human brain, intellect in a unique, mutually supportive, mutually complementing manner, neutralizing the inherently egocentric, subjective tendencies, in a special, integrated Human “network computing".

This way we acquire a new, second, systemic layer above the original, individualistic, “warring” layer, cancer-like" like single cells interconnecting to a qualitatively much higher, multi-cellular organism.

Then the brain becomes like a powerful “modem”, connective device that can adapt, connect us to Nature’s perfect, integrated system through the similarity achieved.
