RE: Our NeighbourGood: A Blueprint For Co-Creating Societies Designed for the 21st Century and Beyond!
Thank you for this post, not only are you sharing my vision but you give me hope because obviously you are putting a lot of energy, love and thought into this paradigm shift. And yes, let's not focus on countlessly repeating what's wrong with society, just recognize it as what it is - a been there, done that reminder of how not to do it.
First of all, in a new society we have to commit to selecting our leaders in a way that benefits humanity and the planet. We have brilliant minds in our society, people who are smart, compassionate, visionary, yet we manage to put the fate and wellbeing of our world into the hands of a bunch of fearful and greed driven primitives. Our leaders should go through at least 3 to 5 year long regimen of daily meditation, organic food, yoga and tai chi exercises, and they should be guided and educated by spiritually savvy and compassionate wise men and women who council them about what life should be about and what it can be if we do things right for once. I know that sounds unrealistic but it is a goal which accomplishment we owe to ourselves and the universe.
I follow you, I esteemed this as a reminder, and hope that somehow we can work together. Like I said, this has been my vision for almost a decade and I'm stoked to have found you. Peace and light.
Welcome brother! We can absolutely work, ahem- I mean play- together! :)
I know I didn't get into the organization and governmental aspect of this blueprint much. However, I imagine (and am creating) a society where there is no "elected leaders" as such. I wholly agree with the healing protocol you've laid out. However, we're moving into a paradigm beyond power-over-others and into a paradigm of power-through-others.
Once we give our power away to someone else we plant the seeds of their demise. I don't believe man is meant to be ruled over, nor made to rule. We're meant to commune with each other and our world.
We can view our culture as having gone through several revolutionary periods that have further distributed power - from monarchs to constitutional republics. This next period is meant to further distribute that power to where we no longer need to be ruled over by others. :)
Hi mate,
while I agree with what you're saying I also want to point out that when I said leaders I did not have rulers in mind. Maybe I should've said, guides or teachers, because that's the idea. We definitely have no need for some parasite moochers anymore, but humanity has been so conditioned into giving their God given powers to some con artist shucks, that there needs to be some transition period during which people will be taught to be really free. It's gonna take time and effort but it'll be so worthwhile.
