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!

Art by Jessica Arias
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.

Celebrating Diversity is Celebrating Equality

Some considerations in the context of Carnival and diversity celebrations... It is fascinating that, behind the masks we mask ourselves with and often hide behind – ornaments of culture, ethnic inheritance, tradition, religion and other cults and belief-systems – we are all the same: skin and bones, a crown of thorns, breathe-in breathe-out, with or without...


Why define ourselves by our differences?! Is the ‘pride’ in diversity actually a manifestation of our ‘spite’ towards that which we have equally become within and as this world : Organic robots living a systematic existence in cycles of abuse, trapped in oblivion, enslaved to a system of no mercy and no consideration for life, a system in the image and likeness of its creator, you and me... And in an attempt to deny and forget the obvious atrocity we all equally exist in and have accepted and allowed to become of this world, we try and give meaning to our differences – a desperate attempt to give ourselves some ‘value’...

The value of life is life!

Fascinatingly enough, celebrations of diversity end-up celebrating our equality and demonstrating that under the garment that is our disguise we are all equal – we breathe the same air and need the same elements to live on this earth.
We all know the national or ethnic groupings and clubs at universities, colleges and generally the global villages worldwide like Berlin, London, New York. This is quite 'interesting' to observe if we take into consideration how this world as our current and accepted system imposes a 'minority fear' (not that it is a place to really feel at home anyhow...). People tend to get together under the auspices of their culture & customs to feel more 'at home', to feel more 'safe'... In an Equal Money system based in the value of Life, this phenomenon will slowly but surely dissipate, as we create a world where ALL LIFE may feel equally at home!



The conditioned elements of our different cults and traditions cannot save us from facing ourselves as participants of this co-existence called Earth. They are no justification and no excuse for abuse and separation.



Time to realize that THE VALUE OF LIFE IS LIFE and that this world system as it exists through everybody’s permission is a crime against life!
Time we do something about this!

SELF-REALize or Self-ReaLIEze



Self-realization: seeing what we have made ourselves real as - the truth of self as how self experience self, as how self´s presence resonates despite what one believe or say - and realizing that we have become what we are through our own acceptance and allowance.


That implies that I am the directive principle of me -because it was through MY acceptance and allowance that I created myself as what I am now: a reflection of my thoughts, beliefs, judgments and emotions; a separate entity in a Bubble of Mind; Fearing death - How can we Live when we´re busy Surviving?



LIFE as who I really am demands from me to MAKE MYSELF REAL as LIFE - HERE, within and as the Physical. To MAKE MYSELF REAL as the living word, wherein my thoughts, words and deeds are one and equal; wherein All Life is honored Equally and Self is the directive principle as Life as Equality and Oneness.


We have become Real-LIES. We see this everywhere. Our world reflects us back to us.

Our words are a LIE, our thoughts are a LIE, our emotions are a LIE, our pictures are a LIE, our ´love´ is a LIE. Life has become a LIE. Is this LI(f)E? Are we alive?


With every thought, word and action in every moment of breath each one determine self. We each are equal to what we accept and allow within self and within our world.

self-realization = self-real-as-I-say-so

I Realize that I am the cause of my presence - cause as effect as one and equal - and that it is always I that determine who I am: either through acceptance, allowance, submission OR through self-direction in self-responsibility as Life for Life.



We have been programmed by directions of others and designed through our acceptances and allowances. We can STOP - and become the directive principle of Self Here; be the Source, equal as LIFE.


We can stand up and SELF-REALize LIFE.

Accept no separation, no submission, no polarity, no masters, no gods, no judgments; no dishonesty, no deception, no abuse, no manipulation, take no bullshit from self or anyone else.


Then SELF-REALization is not an empty word or a profound state to attain - but is who I am, what I stand for and as, and what I create equal and one.



We have become systems within a System, where the Systems are god and us, all of us: Slaves.

Life has been deceived and we are all equally response-able.

Enough is enough!

Stop the LI(f)E in every breath!

No more slaves! No more masters!


SELF-REALize LIFE as who we all really are. We need COMMON Sense, common ground, common interest - we are all of the same Substance.

Let´s get real!
