What a horrendous task, even thinking about
creating world peace seems futile as the task to accomplish this seems so
horrendous. Only to the ego in control, truly.
I have often expressed lately about how we
should avoid abusing energy, not just in regards to our natural resources but
energy as a whole, this includes the way we use and abuse ideologies and isms.
The ideology or ism may present itself, but
may never be pushed on people. Imagine pushing Hinduism, Taoism or Buddhism
onto other people, as soon as you do this, you lose the meaning and the
substance of that ideology or ism. The ideology or ism may present itself to
you but you must approach the ideology or ism, not it approach you,
anything else is simply abuse of this energy. How is materialism or certain
kinds of Christianity or Islam or even certain kind of new age spirituality used?
They are often used in approaching you, not you approaching them, of course not
all of Christianity, Islam or new age spirituality is used in this manner.
Think on this, when an ideology or ism is
forced upon people, what occurs? Often chaos and destruction, anything but
peace, now imagine when ideologies and isms are not pushed onto people. Hard to
recall in the West isn't it? Of course ideologies and isms like Hinduism,
Taoism or Buddhism are often only presented to be approached; they don't
approach you if used properly as this is the way they are structured. Once
these ideologies and isms are used incorrectly, in other words abused, they are
no longer truly of what they are supposed to represent.
I was recently
active in a world peace group. One of the discussions was about consciousness
so I mentioned the following. "Some scientists
actually surmise that a far more advanced and aware consciousness might have
created this universe, seen as scientists are today able to create
mini-universes. They also think it's possible to create a self-aware
consciousness and biological matter within a human created universe.
Also,
there are scientists that believe and hypothesize that a form of consciousness
exists within everything. Taking this into consideration as well, it is obvious
that any universe created by a consciousness is of the consciousness that
created it. This of course gives credence to the perception and belief of a
creative source (God) of all things."
One
of the group members, of a world peace group by the way, took obvious offence
to me relating god to the creations of the universe. They demanded evidence and
even proof to my claims above. As they obviously didn't know, claims don't need
supporting evidence to be a claim. Even after presenting evidence and even two
lots of supporting evidence that claims don't have to be supported by evidence,
they continued over and over again with their demand.
You
see this particular person follows an ideological doctrine that's not supposed to be interested in
accepting or rejecting any claims that gods exist or do not exist. However, he literally used this ideology to the extent
of strictly forbidding the acceptance of this universe in anyway being attributed
to a God. He in fact used and abused his own ideological doctrines to the
extent of rejecting any claims of the existence of Gods of any kind. I even
ended up supporting some of my claims using science, this was instantly
rejected of course which goes against his own doctrines of his ideology. After
numerous claims by him, he presented evidence but evidence from a philosophy
source, not from a credible scientific source that he consistently demanded
from me. This person was taking more of an atheist stance than an apatheist
stance.
Sadly,
this person was supported by other members of this group, even while he was
obviously abusing me and his ideology. Lying, deceiving and manipulation to
protect your biases are indeed of abuse. To force your own ideological
doctrines onto someone else over and over again is also of abuse. If he's
ideology had any substances to it, all he had to do is present it to me but this
was clearly not the case.
If
you follow an ideology or ism correctly, the substance of the ideology or ism
should speak for itself. All you should need to do is present it; anything else
is going to lead anywhere else but to peace. If used incorrectly, ideologies
and isms will create biases. Biases create lies, deception and manipulation because
of the way we abuse energy, such as ideologies and isms. Try lying, deceiving
and manipulating in the absence of biases, of course the more extreme our bias
is, the more we will lie, deceive and manipulate, in other words abuse energy.
Try
to think of everything as pure energy, no biases to what kind of energy, just
energy without labels or tags. Once you actually experience a state of only
perceiving everything as simply being energy, you will have a different outlook
to life for the rest of your life. Within this state, you can actually observe
the difference to energy being abused and energy not being abused. Energy being
abused looks all chaotic and distorted. When energy isn't being abused, it
looks sedate and proportional. Abusing the ideologies and isms the way we are
doing, will of course lead to a chaotic distorted reality.
I am
an advocate against abusing energy; this includes abusing ideologies and isms. I
am not an advocate against all ideologies and isms but I don't, in a bias way,
follow any ideology or ism. Yes, I often use a number of concepts and
principles of various ideologies and isms, but I try not to use them in an
abusive way. Abuse by the way also
includes feeding energy off of each other. How many new age ideologies rely
completely on continually feeding the ego in control? You have to express a lot
of motion by feeding each others ego otherwise the momentum is lost. This often
occurs. The controlling ego could gorge itself on all the energy in the
universe, this still wouldn't be enough. If an ideology or ism has to keep
approaching you to feed it, this is simply an indication of abuse of energy.
I am
aware that some of this, if not all of this, is going to be hard to comprehend
to anyone who can't perceive that everything is pure energy. If you are a
Westerner or even an Easterner, research on panpsychism or even idealism. Most
Eastern cultures have their own way of presenting what I stated here in their
own way. I don't' myself consort to idealism.
World
peace is simply obtained through desisting or stopping in the abuse of energy,
it really is this simple.
