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.

Lovely, alive Elena
Do you remember that drink we thought we might have had a few weeks ago? God! I wish it could have been tonight at the Bishop Blaize (my pub, my real asylum, place of safety) You would have had your healing ‘right up to the eyeballs’. You say I ‘parent’ you. It is not quite like that. Tonight, as I have had an inkling these past few days, I felt my strong peace and ‘robust love’ so purely and with so many people – the lesbian couple, the Dutch Letti (who sang ‘Heaven is a place on Earth’ for me) and her 7 foot tall boyfriend, Korstiaan – oh so manly and admirable and the Pure Solar, Hayley, who comperes the karaoke, where I sing my heart out – do you know how Solars can be entertainers to the max? Dear Elena, do you know how you can be overwhelmed by the strong, beating heart of the people – the Real Love. When I look back (and it has not discontinued) the FOF was so surfacey, so pretentious, So False – The Depth with which I hate Burton and what he is doing!!!!! Sorry, Elena, I’m falling apart. I’ll try to compose myself in the morning (it is now 2.30 in the morning) and answer you in the particular way to which Your Reality is accustomed…..Nigel.

Nigel,
You too are so much more “expansive” these days. It is such a pleasure to “hear” your soul. Like “nectar”!
The “parenting” that I feel is not a conscious premeditated process or something you are pretending to “give” or that I am pretending to “take”. It is simply the ability to be human in this given situation what has helped me realign the broken archetypes.
We seldom understand other people’s suffering and they even seem ridiculous to us but when we are able to hold them no matter how little we understand, it helps them free themselves from them.
Your support in this blog has been simply crucial to my well-being. You may not realize how deeply you’ve helped me and how grateful I am for it. It’s similar to what I believe I made possible for Heather and other people I’ve taken in. When we can take in a person, with all their misgivings and suffering, they find a suitable place to deal with their own self. We can provide adequate physical and psychological environments for the person but we can’t actually go in there and heal them, they have to do that for themselves. If they find the help they need, they can find enough of themselves for the process to take place. If they can’t, the problem is deepened.
Nevertheless, I look forward to hearing your reflections on the subject when you find your way to the “communicator”!
