What dream should we follow?

Question from the Internet:

“Who agrees with me that the world would be a much better place if we all stop following our dreams and just only did what we were good at even if we didn’t like it?”

This is a very important and complex question. It is true, that “following our dreams” usually means following some illusory, egocentric and subjective goals at all costs.

On the other hand, “doing what we are good at” is also not that simple. How do we know what we are good at and who determines this? How do we even know where to try what we are good at?

Again, just like with our dreams, we are missing some solid, absolute foundations and standards we can measure ourselves and our goals against.

In order to come closer to the right answer we need to understand and accept that we are not fully independent, “standalone” beings as we usually think, who have the individual free choice to decide what and how to do. Instead, we are all parts of a fully integrated and interdependent humanity that is also an integral part of Nature’s system.

In truth we are like individual cells in a human organism that is also part of Nature, we are like cogwheels in a cosmic machinery. I know this viewpoint is very unpleasant at first from our inherently egocentric, subjective and individualistic viewpoint, but nevertheless, this is the truth from Nature’s viewpoint.

And since Nature’s laws determine and govern our lives we have no other choice but to adapt ourselves to them. So we need to learn what our actual, predetermined, unique and crucially important role and purpose are in this cosmic machinery and we will become successful when we “dream” about when we want to fulfil the exact role that is assigned to us.

We have the necessary, purposeful and practical educational method to perform this crucially important self-development and self-actualization.

And when we start doing so we will actually gain huge. When we start interconnecting and cooperation according to Nature’s finely balanced and mutually integrated blueprint, we will acquire access to a unique “collective human consciousness” and to a “composite perception of reality”, opening up a sense of existence we could not even dream about before.

Moreover, by making our human integration similar to Nature we will also gain access to Nature’s truly limitless resources and blueprints.

I think this is a “dream” (actually a very realistic state) worth dreaming…
