WE are the Aliens – Time to become EARTHLINGS

STOP THE ALIENATION OF LIFE

We learnt to think that ‘human nature’ is what it is.

We do not consider that by accepting this as ‘given’, as pre-programmed, as our legacy as human-kind, we are perpetuating the ‘status quo’ of the world as we know it – which is everything else but kind.

We tend to use nature and the animal kingdom in an attempt to justify why we (co-)exist the way we do, saying that for animals to exist in mutual consumption and competition for resources/survival, it must be ‘natural’ and the only way for humans and the rest of ‘life’.

Never for a moment do we question the accepted ‘human nature’ – 

we do not consider that this world is a reflection of who WE are, and that if WE dare to change (since we DO have the intellect and common sense to see we are heading towards self-destruction) everything else may change consequently.

We learnt to think that we are the effect of a ‘mysterious’ cause, and avoid acknowledging the manifested consequences of cause and effect as evident in this world. Moreover, we deny our own involvement within it all; we deny responsibility for what is Here and invent all kinds of theories and projections onto which we abdicate our power to create, design, form reality. 

We refuse to see and recognize the EFFECT we CAUSE each in our personal worlds, as well as the EFFECT we CAUSE within the greater picture/the Whole through all that we each accept and allow or choose to ‘ignore’ at any given moment.

Let’s STOP; and create a World that is Best for All.

Let us allow ourselves to consider the possibility that if WE change – change ourselves, our co-existence and the systems we construct to manage ourselves through – everything will change! We won’t know until we do it! But we DO know that we can’t continue with the world and ‘humanity’ as we know it:

We are heading towards self-destruction.

Not only the animal kingdom, also the weather patterns are showing us the insanity we are manifesting, wherein the bipolar reality-construct as we’ve created/accepted/allowed it is becoming more and more extreme, the rich becoming richer and the poor poorer, the natural disasters more violent, and the ‘demonic possessions’ in the human minds are escalating more and more into incidents of hatred, rape, murder.

Also the spontaneous revolutions and protest are becoming more and more heated as the people of the world shout-out and stand-up to revolt against the system’s oppression, against the inhumanity of humanity and the laws that violate people’s right to life – without any actual solutions taking place to benefit LIFE.

It is up to us, the People, you and me – the building blocks of this world system – to change the paradigm of an existence that is parasitic in nature, and consider practical ways to an equilibrium that has never existed before.

We have the knowledge, the experience and the technology to do this. 

The last ingredient for a successful transcendence of ‘life’ is the WILL of Man and the consistency and courage to do what it takes and not give up, until Life is ONE and we can stand as equals of life, as brothers and sisters in fact. Not give up until all abuse, exploitation and disgrace is abolished from the face of the Earth, once and for all, and we have cleared the way to create heaven on earth for all and finally start Living and discovering what Life, what we, can be.

We have been the ‘Aliens’ that have accepted and allowed – and through our daily participation given permission for – the alienation of life, the alienation of the planet, the alienation of ourselves.

It is time to stop; and re-evaluate our existence.

It is time to ask ourselves what we can actually learn from history and how we can finally stop history repeating and change the patterns that make up the context of life on this planet. 

It is time to be/become EARTHLINGS, time to humble ourselves and find Common Sense, as Common People, breathing Common Air on Common Ground: 

the ONE planet we share – Let’s share it equally.

Let’s stop this system of ownership, possession, profit and greed that only feeds off of life, and let’s create a new system of actual life support that nurtures ALL LIFE EQUALLY.

It is possible – It’s up to us!

Get informed - Get involved! 

Find ways to stop being part of the problem - and start being part of the Solution: 

Equality is the way to actual Oneness of Life.

UTOPIA ...? Let’s give it a Home – a Destenation! (A discussion on the separation of church and state, and more)

... 

Any great idea will remain Utopia unless it is given a practical context and a purposeful application that can be lived into reality.

Not that we’ve had many great ideas in the history of mankind... At Desteni we are coming forth with a ‘utopia’ that is for the first time a great idea considering ALL and EVERYTHING that is here – a great idea that in fact considers what is best for all. The foundation for this is the principle of equality. This may not be a new concept, obviously, yet the approach and the practical application that is being proposed is something that will not only ‘blow your mind’ – it will blow the whole current system apart!

“Thank God!”, one could say, finally, something that will help clear the dust and rust of this millennia old machine, that ended up in this world wide monarchy of money, feeding on life instead of nurturing all children of the world!

One however does not say that. Au contraire, this great idea is being resisted and fought from many corners, especially of course those that fear losing the oh so dear money (because even though money equals debt, it also equals power ... makes you wonder, doesn’t it...)

Have those with money lost their man-I ...?

It seems so, otherwise they would not be placing money before life, power before life, fear before life.

Today I was discussing the separation of religion and state, and I was challenged to look at an argument saying that "the logic of separating church and state is not all that different from the logic of separating the private economy from the state" – an argument based on an excerpt with the title "Religious Liberty and the Separation of Church and State".

I was not aware of Paul Starr’s book, "Freedom’s Power", however I looked at the principle and I see the parallel – though, let me place things into perspective:

We cannot allow beliefs and religious ideas (which are separatist or hierarchical in nature to begin with) to lead our world, or even to lead the leaders of our world, as that is not a starting-point that will ensure what is best for all.

Re-interpretation of the Bible by Cameron Cope

The same with economy: if we define the 'state' as the 'whole'/what's best for all (not that it is currently) and if we define 'private economy' as the ego-driven separatist application of economy just like the one we witness day in day out within and as our current money-system that is not based in real, actual value, but only in profit-making  --- then it is obvious that economy and welfare are separate and that an economy based on profit is not supporting all life equally.

Now, don’t get me wrong, I am not in any way proposing that ‘private economy’ should exist at all! Because now that it does – please have an honest look at our world and ask yourself whether you’d be willing to put yourself in the shoes of another – in the shoes of ANY OTHER BEING in this world – and walk their life as if it is yours.

The answer is obvious and the practical implication is that we cannot allow this reality, this world as we know it, to continue the way it’s currently going.

In an equal money system, everyone will have the choice to follow a religion as long as that is not influencing others – as long as a religion is not harming or compromising life. No more violation of human rights based on beliefs and religious traditions!

In an equal money system, the economy will no longer be based in profit but will be based in the value of life. People will still be able to make more money and have ‘more luxuries’ than the equal high standard available to all, but the money-making will not happen in a way that will monopolize resources or compromise the quality of a product to serve the profit-making of a select few. Nope!

Let’s finally agree that the value of life is life – and that life is the highest value to be honored and practically taken care of in this one reality we all share!

Equality is about practically establishing the value of life that we all equally have in common as the spirit of our breath. We all breathe the same air!

Equality is about stopping the religion of money as it exists today : where money is the god that decides who lives and who dies in this world.

In an equal money system with equal opportunities for all, there will for the first time exist actual choice!

Life/living can be something that supports self-expression, self-expansion – and each one will have the means, the time and the freedom to expand in their skills, talents and expression. 

From this starting-point we can all stop 'surviving' and start living! From this starting-point the whole application of work/working will change, the motivation will change, and self will be/become the actual driving force of oneself and one's world – in equality. 

That is real power, that is real freedom. this is a promising scenario, but it must be willed into awareness and applied into beingness – it must be practically lived into creation – a creation where we can all live constructively and co-exist without fear!

Art y Matti Freeman

In a world of equality, we can each be ‘source’ – instead of fighting like vampires for ‘energy’. In the current world system, energy is currently manifest as the money-system – it’s goal: ‘power’ – a world that is reflecting back to us ‘who we are’/who we have become and what has become of our creation: one only need look at how we exist within the current world-system, and how (we allow) things (to) move within the money-system, while we at the same time accept that half the world must suffer in untold conditions while some suck on the resources of the EARTH that is here for all – the Earth that no money can buy, and no money can save – unless We Stop, and re-evaluate our existence into a co-existence that places life in the first place – the ‘highest moral’.

Because see – in equality ALL can have More of All : that is real quality, that is real MorAl.
