Do you want to gain
greater control of your life, have spiritual and financial wealth, happiness,
better relationships and health thus inspire and influence others? If so; you
need to take action.
The state of
the world we live in is not very healthy and many people are worried about
whether the human race can survive unless we change the way we do things. Who
is to blame? The answer to that mainly depends on how we see the world.
Those in the
firing line of blame include; governments, corporations, religions,
institutions, cultures and countries. The one common denominator amongst all of
these is that they are run and controlled by humans. If humans are the problem
then It would be a lot more constructive if we switched from the blame game to
getting serious about understanding why the human race has gone down this path.
One issue or
common denominator seems to stand out when I look at and try to understand the
big picture of this problem. The problem of individuality verses unity. Humans
enjoy the freedom of being an individual along with the free will and freedom
of choice that come with it. However the negative side of this individuality
creates separation and fear. There is another part of us that seeks unity and group
consciousness. A by-product of this is the safety and a form of love that comes
in being a member of a group.
Here lies a
huge problem; we want both! We want the deeper connection of a loving consciousness
that comes with the unity of belonging to a group. We also want our freedom
that comes with individuality. Separation and unity are opposite polarities so
how can we ever bring them together? Fortunately for us; there is a way. We
have to learn to amalgamate the two opposites and thus finding the balance
between the two. It is the balance that brings the harmony.
The power
that a few enjoy when they control or are in charge of the many is very selfish
because it is mostly about the self. A common human perception is that power
and wealth create security and safety. The illusion is that the more we have of
these; the safer we become. The powerful and wealthy strive for more to feel
even safer and so the divide between the ‘haves
and the have-nots’ deepens. Very few leaders have the ‘highest good for
all’ in their hearts even if they think they do. These are the same people that
are in charge or heavily influence the direction that governments,
corporations, religions, institutions, cultures and countries take. These
leaders are not likely to see or want to change the status quo so how can we
change this situation? Having said that, I recognise that there are exceptions
to this norm and there are good leaders with good hearts in this world.
The change all
starts with every individual and this is the first level that we must work on.
We change our selves and the world around us will change. This grass roots type
action is essential because we have to change ourselves first. Once a small
percentage of us change this will trigger the momentum needed for mass consciousness to shift. The change has to
start at the bottom and work upwards – not the other way around. Our hearts
need to be open and our minds focused on the love and unity found in group consciousness.
It all starts with you and me.
