The urgent need for universal, collective consciousness

Question from the Internet:

“Why is it in our best interest that our state of universal consciousness is raised?”

Individually, we are all born with a very limited and distorted, 100% subjective and egocentric worldview. We do not see reality as it is, we see our own, highly revised and censored version of it — according to our constant, self-serving, self-justifying and individualistic calculations and needs.

At the same time, we evolved into a globally integrated and interdependent world — within the fully integrated and interdependent, living Natural system. Our problems are global, collective but we try to comprehend and solve them individually, trying to gain the most for ourselves at any cost, surviving and succeeding at each other’s expense.

Our problem-solving and collective survival — and there is no individual or national survival when we are all sitting on the same, sinking boat — depends on building and sustaining an unprecedented, mutually responsible and mutually complementing cooperation which also brings us a unique, collective consciousness and intellect.

It is this collective, composite consciousness and intellect we can all access that will bring us the full understanding of the Natural system we exist in, the cause and effect processes that create and determine all the states we inevitably go through. As a result, we will be able to adjust ourselves to the Natural system and become conscious, mutually contributing partners with it instead of being the system’s losing enemies.

The fact that we have to achieve this collective consciousness and cooperation above and against our inherently egocentric and subjective nature necessitates a special, purposeful and highly practical educational method that can help us in this unprecedented, conscious, truly Human developmental process.
