RE: Why do we fight to change the world?

in #philosophy8 years ago

"Once you master living in the moment then all of your self-inflicted emotional suffering ends. There is no more anger and no more attachment to things or outcomes. With this you also free yourself from manipulation by the powers that be."

One of the most powerful, clear and true statements I have come across. Thank you! I cannot agree with you more. I also really appreciate your advice on resistance to the status quo...I still to this day find myself getting distracted with fighting for people I see being harmed (even when they don't see it that way and support their oppressor). As I do it I become conscious I do it, but haven't totally understood why? Your words definitely bring some light on the topic for me.

Sort:  

What you resist persists! I've removed "fighting for" or "fighting against" from my vocabulary. I just keep setting intentions for what I do want and following my inspiration to move toward it more and more. If we want change, we really need to stop focusing on what we don't want and move our focus to what we do want to create.

Exactly. Acknowledge the existence of tremendous suffering, but know that is it is not permanent, and cannot be. Therefore the only thing that is logical is acceptance of that which you cannot change, and then changing that which you can.

If one continues to fight this system, they will fail inevitably.
The reason this system (governance) exists is because it is supported. When you retract the support, the system crumbles.

What we need to continue to do as enlightened individuals is create an interconnection of FREEDOM.
Meaning the freedom of moving without constraint or violence consequence.

We have begun the process of creating and using crypto currencies. now we have a decentralized social media platform and alternative media.
What we need to continue to do is to create new systems of living that do not FEED the old system, but are separate from it.

As the coming years unfold, their will be much suffering as the old systems WILL eventually collapse...for they clearly lack the skill to assume formlessness.
But as these systems collapse and the totalitarianism that is government is exposed to the masses to such a degree that they cannot deny it, I believe that those who support these systems now will turn their backs on it and join the cause of HUMANITY.

In the meantime, what is important is the creation of sovereign, tight knit communities all over the world that are completely off the grid...and this can be done legally.
One such legality is "squatting communities".

The main factor is that people need to stop joining the military industrial complex, police, and other violent institutions and the ones already in servitude to those systems need to wake up and bite the strings of their puppet masters.

At the end of the day its all about patience, resilience, and faith.

Gosh. How beautifully said. I love everything you said. It holds high energy.

Thank you...you seem a bright star yourself :)
The evil that plauges our world goes deeper than most realize.
But that is okay. People choose their path.
