The single most important thing we need to focus on

Question from the Internet:

“Among all the problems that our society suffers from today, which one would you choose to dedicate your life to solving, why and how?”

Why can’t we solve our global problems effectively or at all? Why are we making mistake after mistake regarding the pandemic and why can’t we even start to discuss climate change?

because we simply cannot listen to each other, we can’t take others into consideration, we cannot look at the world as a single whole where we are all inevitably integrated and we all depend on each other.

Our inherently individualistic, self-serving, self-justifying human ego constantly tries to use, exploit others and succeed at the expense of others and Nature. This is how our instincts, the original inner program evolution gave us works.

If we do not learn how to rise above this inherent ego — which cannot be suppressed or erased — in order to harness, channel its incredible power, driving force towards positive, constructive, collective, and mutual goals, solutions, purpose, we will not survive in Nature’s fully integrated system that is based on strict, unchanging and unforgiving laws.

Thus we have to dedicate all our forces, resources to the necessary, unique, purposeful, and practical educational method, that can help us recognize the cancer-like ego in us, and then give us the tools to learn to control, harness the ego for the wellbeing,m benefit of the whole collective, for the whole system we are all integral parts of.
