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.

Ton

15. ton - April 14, 2010 [Edit]
e: “Funny that you wouldn’t know Old FOF’s post that was the one just previous to my banning and the first one on the other public square blog. So convenient not to know the facts so that you can avoid them isn’t it?”

let me tell you something elena, apparently unlike you – believe it or not – i don’t hang on every word that is written on these silly blogs… i actually have a life which means that i do miss a lot of the posts… so shoot me. i might check in once in a while, see what the buzz is about, add my 2 cents, stir the pot, and then move on to other things… i have a life elena, and it is not centered around the internet or these blogs.

e: “So don’t you worry about “helping me”. When I really needed help after I was banned you came to this blog to treat me with the same ridiculous fervor as a sick woman. You have been the most assiduous visitor to this blog. This is love…. etc”

let me explain something to you elena, it is YOU yourself who is the most “assiduous” visitor here. i’ll explain the frequency of my own recent visits here: #1 – i will at least acknowledge feeling partly responsible for your most recent banning from the fofblog… you on the other hand, refuse to accept any responsibility for your actions… this is the definition of “denial” elena. because i inwardly accept and acknowledge my responsibility, i felt it would be irresponsible to “leave you hanging” and so i’ve at least TRIED to finish what was started on the other site… now i realize that trying is not synonymous with succeeding, and with you there seems to be no “finishing” anyway, nevertheless my recent “assiduousness” here on your site represents a follow-up… which leads to the second reason for my “assiduous” visitings: #2 – one thing i tend to do when i have “free time” is to “surf the web” – which includes visiting a variety of blog sites. it so happens that i have a couple of weeks off of work for spring break, so i’m spending more time on-line than is usual for me…. but don’t worry, you’ll be “seeing” less of me here soon enough, i go back to work next week… and you can go back to your “ivory tower” where no one dares to question you. #3 – yes this represents a type of “love” – there are lots of different types of love elena, and this is not the type you may be thinking of… you see elena, i know you are “hurting” i can see that, and as a human being, i don’t like to see ANY creature in pain or suffering, and that goes for the suffering of ALL OF CREATION and not just human beings, and not just you, that’s ALL OF CREATION, of which you happen to be a small part – so the “assiduous” visits come partly out of a love rooted in compassion for the struggles of all beings, great and small. but you know what elena, if you don’t love yourself enough to take responsibility and properly care for yourself, then you can’t realistically continue to expect it to come from others…. this reminds me of something – i viewed a wonderful film that you might actually benefit from if you take it to heart… may i suggest you rent it, take a look at it and have yourself a good cleansing cry:

e: “Let them talk about me when I’ve finished my work. You seem to mind a great deal the fact that I speak now with certain propriety. Why does what I know or explore bother you so much?”

what you know or explore doesn’t bother me, but i DO think that you don’t know as much as you would like to think you do. all i’ve done throughout this exchange is to encourage you to do more exploration…. yet you continue to deny and ignore that or become defensive and insulted when i do… why does that bother you so much elena? i hope you do write a book and i hope you’ll send me a copy when it’s complete.

life is for learning,
