The Separation between State and Religion

In time we will realize that Democracy is the entitlement of individuals to every right that was in its times alloted to kings. The right to speak and decide, to be treated with decency, to serve and be served by people in a State of “love” that is, to serve with one’s work for the development of ‘life’. To belong to the Kingdom of Human Beings without racial, national, social or academic separations. To love and be loved. To die at the service of the whole and be honored in one’s death, for one’s life and work was legitimately valued. To be graceful and grateful. To have the pride and the humility of being One with the Universe, One with every realm of Existence, One with every living and deceased soul. To treat with dignity and be treated with dignity for One is dignified together with All others and Life itself. To walk the path of compassion, not in the sorrow of guilt but in the pride of being. To take responsability for one’s mistakes and sufferings and stand up again and again like a hero and a heroine and face the struggle that is put at one’s feet and in one’s hands. Millions of people, millions and millions of people might take many generations to realize the consciousness of our humaneness but there is no other dignified path for the human being.

The “work” as I conceive it is psychological and political. Psychology is the connection between the different dimensions within one’s self and Politics is the actualization of that consciousness in our practical lives. Religion is the ceremony that binds the connectedness between the individual and the Universe. The separation between religion, politics and science, the arts and sports is, in the sphere of the social, the reflection of the schizophrenia within the individual and the masses. The dialogue between individuality and the "human" belongs to consciousness. The tendency to develop cults resides in the shortcomings we’are finding in life as it is structured today. “Life” has become the private property of a few priviledged who cannot profit from it because as soon as it is appropriated it stops to be “life” or “life-giving”.

We are all the victims of our own invention and each one is called upon to find solutions. The only problem is believing our selves incapable of finding them. We are now free to use all Systems of knowledge objectively, sharing them without imposing our will on each other. To become objective about our lives means to understand that the institutions that govern its experience are critically important. That we are one with the governments, one with the religious activities that mark its pace, that the arena’s in which we move our bodies and the laboratories in which we explore our possibilities are ALL part and parcel of our own personal responsibility. That WE ARE ONE WITH EACH OTHER AND EVERYTHING AROUND US and acknowledge for ourselves a bond of love in conscious responsibility. That we human beings know ourselves part of each other and are willing and able to act on our behalf for the benefit of each and every individual. That we no longer allow governments, industries, universities or any other institution to run along unchecked by the objective principles of humaneness. That we do not allow gurus to abuse their power or governors to steal the taxes and use them to their personal advantage in detriment of the whole. That we do not allow abuse from anyone anywhere because life is too beautiful to do so and that we are willing to stop the rampant crime with the necessary compassion Conscious knowledge is every individual's right. Conscious action is every individual's duty.

Daily Cardiac- Having a ball in the fofblog


232. Elena - November 13, 2009 [Edit]

DC is having a ball in the fofblog. They only “react” to him without a clarity of their own letting him be the first force and the dominant force which makes them subject to his rule. It is wonderful that he’s been able to speak because people will understand how it happened. How it worked. How Girard got away with his cult.
I’m looking for posts in which I ask him questions that he never answered. Girard’s position in the cult was exceptional because as the second to be conscious being in the world, he was given freedom to ACT and speak. His position has to be in every way different to all other members. He talks from him self no matter how much that self corrupted the System to accomodate the cult.
These things have to be taken into consideration for they make a huge difference. Members who’ve participated on the blog cannot speak like Daily Cardiac. They never did because they never had to build up a dogma like Girard had in which he could justify everything for himself as much as everybody else who he submitted into obedience to Robert. There are thirty five years of experience in those words and that is not to be taken lightly. And still, after saying all that, Daily Cardiac could not be Girard but any of the men or women in the Fellowship that followed his footsteps closely. The few with ambitions copied him so faithfully that it would be difficult to distinguish one thought from another for the thoughts are the same even if the individual is different. The thoughts are the dogma that they all adhered to. And yet, few could wave these tides like Girard. He is a master at it and it is good to see him talking about it because he is justifying how he reached the point he reached both for himself and us. The fact that he needs to justify himself is positive. There are doubts in there. The fact that he simply avoids real questions and fall back into the same division of spiritual-practical life and adjusts practical life to examples that justify life in the inner circle shows how desperate he is to keep justifying his own actions. The examples he gives on Harvard University, sex in airplanes and such things are revealing of his own perceptions in life which are similar to examples I would hear Girard give in our conversations. But the fact that he is continuing to talk is better than anything else because it shows the extent to which he sincerely succumbed to the cult and his role and how there is no evil intent in it, like in the GOOD film that Anna just mentioned. All these people and us fell in the trap of the cult without knowing exactly how or why. That doesn’t free them or us from responsibility or make the cult any less dangerous.
