What is the cause of war?!

Question from the Internet:

“Are wars due to the basic human nature of leaders and statesmen, or the particular domestic system of a state, or due to the anarchical international system? Or all of the above?”

None of the above.

Wars are the result of the inherently “warmongering”, ruthlessly competitive, 100% egoistic, fiercely and proudly individualistic, and nationalistic human nature that drives all of us without exception.

This is more obvious in some, while less obvious in others, but in special conditions, with the right “provocation” we can all be aroused to go to war against others as history and our present life show.

And as a result, true, sustainable peace is possible only, when we are all willing to learn how to behave, act, build positive, sustainable, mutually responsible, and mutually complementing connections and cooperation above and against our inherent nature — without suppressing, erasing anything.

We have to learn this with the help of a unique, purposeful, and practical educational method and we have to find strong, very realistic common goals, purpose that can help us rise above our instincts and focus on what connects us instead of sinking into the many reasons why we distrust and hate each other.

At this stage, we have a very sharp, obvious goal, reason to accept this change — in Nature’s integral world, with the growing, deepening global problems threatening human existence we need global peace, global cooperation. Otherwise, we will not survive.

Later, when we see the benefit of such mutual cooperation, when we feel the benefit of acting against our instincts, we will reveal much higher rewards for maintaining peace against ourselves.
