What are we humans like to begin with and what do we need to become?

Question from the Internet:

“If you had to deduct a percentage of the total population that adheres to one of the following worldviews, what percentage would you give to each type: egocentric; group identity; nationalist; humanist; integral?”

According to our inherent nature, 100% of humanity is egocentric, adheres to group identity and has very strong individual and national identity — knowingly or unknowingly.

On the other hand, dictated by Nature’s strict, unchanging and unforgiving laws that govern the life-giving mutual integration of the whole system, we all need to become 100% “humanist and integral”.

And we will have to achieve an unprecedented, positive, mutually responsible and mutually complementing integration, cooperation above our diversity and seemingly incompatible differences, without erasing, suppressing any of our differences, uniqueness.

For this, we need a special, purposeful and practical “integral educational” method that can help us understand and make us feel our absolute interdependence.

Then, when with the help of this method we reach the Nature-like mutual integration, we will become “truly Human”, a living being that becomes similar to Nature consciously, against its inherent nature.
