JANU: You have been preoccupied recently with the issue of constant warring in human history and alternatives. Shall we say at this point that living peacefully individually is one thing but when groups of society, local and national and international, wrestle with resources, economics, power, the challenge seems beyond control to not have warring. As we observe other worlds and their cultures, this is not unique to Earth. But others have risen above this with models of living that are mutually supportive to the factions of that society. A major contributing reality is awakening to the truth of your being, which does not seek individual power and advantage over others, but functions quite well, we would say, in the larger life.
Awakening plays a role in this path of peace, but “awakening to what?” we have asked before. Awakening to the truth behind and at the heart of, at the cause of all conflict and greed. Accomplishing this reveals how more can be gained individually and collectively when the elements of society, those species combine resources, combine genius, imagination, creativity, into a mutually beneficial society. Waste virtually disappears. Resources blossom. Warring solves little, but is wasteful, not only in resources but in people as well. “And to gain what?” we say. A piece of land? Part of a world you don’t own anyway? No one does. It’s all illusion and self-destructive.
Societies work best when all of its components work together, take care of each other, combine the genius in each other. The challenges of warring are resolvable but it takes insight, honesty, and courage to choose a better way, explore alternatives, possibilities. Peace is a powerful resource. It is a position of greater strength than any warring can produce.
Consider those children and those adults who knew nothing but warring and conflict in their lives. What is their model for a different life? What do they employ to change things? The so-called hidden truths of being reveal everything, you see. Let the vision to a better life come from deep within you. Have faith in this. Demonstrate it by application and its fruits. Namaste.
