What is behind the present state of the world?

Question from the Internet:

“What is happening now around the world, and what is the solution?”

Human history is basically the chronicle of the ever-intensifying human ego. This human ego — that drives us towards excessively overconsumption and ruthless competition while we succeed at the expense of others and Nature — is the only thing that differentiates human beings from other animals.

It is this insatiable ego that drove our incredible cultural and technological development — while other developed primates remained virtually unchanged for millions of years. And it is the same ego that now makes us destructive and self-destructive in Nature’s finely balanced, fully integrated and interdependent system.

Today we have reached the end of the instinctive and blind egoistic human development. Everything we have ever built and developed — driven by the human ego for our own selfish sake — is now collapsing and slipping through our fingers. Some still try to refute and ignore it, but the facts and the state of the world speak for themselves.

How things will unfold depends on us.

We can continue our blind and instinctive “progress” which will inevitably lead to the next civilizational collapse and the usual civilization-ending explosion — wars, socioeconomic collapse, plagues, and natural catastrophes we have no answer for.

We can also change “tactics” and recognize and accept that we need to change our inherent nature and start a different, conscious and proactive development. Then, we will need to rebuild our human relations and human societies on Nature’s fine,y balanced and mutually integrated blueprint instead of chasing our illusory, arbitrary and unfounded ideologies, philosophies and religions.
