    I spend my time alone and once wondered how i could possibly help. Now i see that for me it's not my person that is needed, but my willing and open mind

    "we had to destroy the world in order to save it" is what that mindset ultimately moves toward.

    I wrote in a song recently...
    Breathe easy, breathe deep
    but don't forget to look before you leap
    Breathe easy, breathe free
    who you are is you you're supposed to be.

    "Seek not to change the world but to change your mind about the world."
    Those who want to change the world are susceptible to others who are "changing the world" instead of ways to improve themselves.

    Thank you! Some more luminous words from a kindred spirit - "The world is a sacred vessel and cannot be controlled. Trying to control leads to ruin. Trying to grasp, we lose. Allow your life to unfold naturally. Know that it too is a vessel of perfection. Just as you breathe in and breathe out, there is a time for being ahead and a time for being behind; a time for being in motion and a time for being at rest; a time for being vigorous and a time for being exhausted; a time for being safe and a time for being in danger.”
    ~ Lao-Tzu

    It is pretty apparent that much harm has been done in the name of good, at least ostensibly. But I would not want to see anyone confuse an intent wtih the means or assume some kind of deterministic path from intent to tyrany. There is a lot of nuance here. I don't see anything fundamentally wrong with having intent or making efforts to "save the world". It seems like a pretty good idea at this point. Clearly, a lot of things we do don't work, like political thinking, ends-justify-the-means thinking, confusing superficial change with real change, thinking we can force, coerce or trick people into meaningful change. The real battle is won within each person ultimately, involving a personal journey, whether supported by a community or not. If you look at all the problems we might want to solve, it would seem that elevating the consciousness of those involved should improve it. That is not a matter of force clearly. But one could foster free thinking and personal evolution in the name of "saving the world" from destruction and our asses in the process. That is how things change, not by attacking specific problems as if the symptom is something like the cause. A common conservative or right wing mindset is all do gooders are bad doers, because that process sometimes goes wrong. A convenient conclusion if you are lazy and attached to a paradigm. That illogical path of thinking is everywhere, on all sides, and just another symptom of the real problem, which is belief thinking, vs open minded, skeptical thinking. Not the fake skepticism that is attached to the term now, but real, positive, curious, open skepticism. If we figure that out, maybe we can make some progress.

      Well said! Change begins with ourselves. And I do believe a conscious effort is necessary in order to step away from our habitual and inferior ways of understanding ourselves and the world.
      To enter into the world in order to change it without having worked on ourselves deeply is like putting the cart before the horse, or like a blind leading another blind. A lot of harm can be produced that way. In other words, a spiritual transformation that give rise to true wisdom must precede any attempt to widen ones swear of influence. This principle have been held sacred for many millennia by the true and genuine spiritual traditions that still exists today.

    “If you want peace and harmony in the world, you must have peace and harmony in your hearts and minds. Such change cannot be imposed; it must come from within.”
    ― Nisargadatta
    For most of us, change is something the ego (itself a disharmonious habit) aggressively articulates and demands--unravelling that and unearthing and questioning unexamined (yet often comforting) assumptions is the path to truly benevolent change.

    Yes, the Instructions come through our Emotions, & also through our Intuition, Inspiration /Higher Self. Thus the power of Meditation, Creativity, Automatic Journaling, Heart Felt Prayers & Faith, Dreams & Nature Immersion! Thusly, through history, each genius' inspiration came to them, when they were in a Flow State of Receptivity; R brain alpha & theta brain states, connected to heart & crown, rather than limited mental thought process of beta brain wave cycles & L brain dominance.

    What if we save the world by exploring the understanding of “do no harm” or “do not steal”
    There is work by mark passio on this, natural law as he calls it.
    Do you think that war and conflicts we have seen are to help us understand each other? To understand the effects of conflicts like this?
    I have found that people can follow rules if they believe in them, yet, we resist rules imposed upon us through controlling means.
    Is it worth exploring this? A manner in which we can work together without causing harm, without stealing rights from each other?
    By rights, I mean anything that is not wrong. Anything that does not steal or harm.
    Curious for feedback ❤😅👍

      It is not possible to live and cause no harm. We kill to eat be it a cow or a head of lettuce.
      In a world of finite resources, what we gain often comes at the cost of it being lost to someone else. Say a job that we need to pay our bills coming at the harm of someone else not getting it-who perhaps had even greater need of it.
      My furniture made of wood was stolen from living trees who live in the forest-sentient beings. Same with every other item in my house-at one time existing as a life somewhere in the world-now a manufactured product in my home.
      So dilemma is….how do we live with the knowledge that we can not avoid stealing and harm? That for us to exist, something else must die. We can certainly live more lightly on the world and keep this death and stealing to a minimum…but it is still there.

    • @cameronhewitt3791
      @cameronhewitt3791 Год назад

      @@sharonlemay938 thanks, it’s a fair point; although I believe it is solved with the understanding of harm and theft.
      Eg, the job is not owned by another. And so it would not be considered theft or harm.
      The cow, absolutely I see it as harm. As theft of a life not theirs to take.
      The lettuce is a very interesting one, and theft / harm perhaps. But could we also set a direction rather than a straight cut. Eg. No harm to man. Then, no harm to animals and man. Then no harm to all life. Maybe we just need practice?
      A practice which can surely offer.
      For sure it would be challenging, impossible almost. Living off fallen fruit and making furniture from fallen branches. Everything is a 1000 times harder in this scenario.
      But these comforts, these easy ways; are at the cost of another. So should we not look at it, accept it and minimise it? Rather than the current method of doing it mostly without thought.?
      Thanks for your answer, I have sat on the same thought for quite a while. 🙏

    2:11 Quantum mechanics is certainly difficult to understand. Perhaps there are forces which we are not able to observe which are indeed acting as a 'push' or 'pull'. It sounded for a moment as if you knew the true nature of quantum mechanics, and asserted that Newton is flatly wrong. Perhaps I misunderstand, but if these are indeed your assertions, I would love a followup video wherein you explain your knowledge of the current state of accepted science surrounding quantum mechanics, and how that relates to the current interpretation of the forces and laws of nature, with citations. I just have a hard time making sense of what's true in the world right now, and a lot of what you said goes very strongly against much of what I've learned about physics and the philosophy of science and the nature of rational argument....Your epistemology eludes me.

    It is really disappointing to hear you say that. It will be The Meek (those who do no harm) who will be called to inherit the New Earth. Join the ranks of the Pure in Heart.....Promote Heaven on Earth. (just like Jesus told us to) Be Strong...Be Wise...Be Brave...Be Kind..Be Better. Live a life that is cruelty free towards all humans and non-humans alike. The human to human violence that we see on the Earth....Is a direct result of the violence that we perpetrate towards the animal kingdom (especially those whom we have chosen as food source) If humans would stop perpetrating this violence of Billions of animals slaughtered every day for one purpose alone, and that is consumption. We have taken this beautiful creation of the power of God and have turned it into nothing. But....if we would stop....then the human to human violence would begin to dissipate until there will be no more human to human violence and we would once again live in a Paradise. Our enemy is Duality. Times Up. Last call for Unity. We are living in "the little season". Revelation 20.
