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.

I'm afraid not finito

oh, so i’m dismissed again, eh elena ?
think about all the mean-spirited and hostile things you’ve written here over the last few days, weeks and months that were intended to ‘harm’ me or others, you’re attempting to inflict on another the frustration, anger and pain you’re feeling… and when i do not react to your barbs as you’d expected, you grow bored with the game and dismiss me… again. this is a pattern with you, do you know how arrogant and patronizing your dismissive attitude is ?
what you don’t realize is that this is an aspect of your abandonment issue rearing it’s ugly head, you fear rejection, you fear abandonment and this creates the compulsion in you to reject and dismiss another ‘preemptively’ so to speak, that is, before you are rejected yourself. let’s see, you spent how many years in a cult ? and then you left the cult, or maybe the cult left you ? you bring up divorce again and in the past you’ve mentioned your several divorces, that’s also connected to abandonment issues… by the way, did you say what age were you when your mother died ?
“Pause and take a look at yourself, a compassionate look. See yourself struggling with fear of abandonment. See how it affects you and your life – your sense of self, your ability to feel whole. Your ability to have happy, inter-dependent relationships. Your ability to attract fully available people. Healing your abandonment issues is key to enjoying life, in order to heal your abandonment issues:
Identify and heal the earlier experiences that underlie your issues (often child abandonment).
Identify your beliefs, feelings, and unmet needs that formed in connection with those earlier experiences.
Build the new, life-enhancing, coherent beliefs, feelings, and needs that will bring you inner power and deep, lasting growth.
Create a “shift” in your energy field from the old to the new. This requires more than the usual “talking/thinking?understanding/problem solving” of the left brain.
Become empowered by WHO YOU ARE. Connect with your genuine power and potential. Know that change is possible. Shift what you resonate with. I do this all day, every day. It is so very do-able~! “Simple but not easy” as the saying goes, unless you know how, of course.”
i’m glad you’re feeling less vulnerable elena, so maybe you can hear this and not react so defensively and lash out aggressively… if you feel that you can do this work in solitude on your own, then more power to you… i’ve only suggested that it’s easier and faster to work with others in undertaking the deep work required for a serious transformational shift… look, i know you don’t trust me, relearning to trust is a huge issue after the cult experience, i know, because i’ve been there too…. and i know you have problems with the opposite gender — after numerous divorces you are obviously not very trusting of men… but if you want to ‘talk’ (write) and unravel some of your core issues here on your blog i can extend the offer to at least ‘listen’ to what you write.

Yes Ton, I'm afraid such truths are always a little offensive for the ego and we should be able to look at them for what they are. I kindly ask you to allow me to retire from this conversation because I sincerely find it boring and dishonest.
This new tone of kindness was what I needed three, two, one year ago and you're Oh so late by now Ton and you're right, I don't care anymore. I find you dishonest and out of place.
All those things you mention: my mother, my husbands, the cult are Oh so true, they hurt for so long but I've found my way out of that suffering and how I've been doing that is all here in these blogs if you bothered to read what matters but you're fixed in the idea of Elena the victim. You've been trying to convince me for so long that you managed to convince yourself and are crystallizing in it. If you like that go ahead. At this point you could be getting off on a potato and it wouldn't matter to me. Besides the human compassion I might feel for anyone so wrapped up in his own labyrinth, I fully understand that you're free to chose and if I can neither help you nor anyone else, I can at least help my self. 
Goodbye Ton.
