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.

We are One


Hi Will,

How would you connect the different alchemies or the one alchemy in different spheres? and the exoteric and esoteric?

You invite me and tell me that when I come you'll show me things but I am here and if you have anything you wish to show this is your opportunity. It is also fine not to show anything and simply share ourselves without making up excuses of why we enjoy being together or presenting little baits so that we come even closer! When there's no agenda to be together then we settle in our selves, contented. Wouldn't that be the alchemy of being? To let each other be without competing? What competes, cannot be real.  To be delighted in each other's presence and not have to justify that? To let each other give all of our light (and every human being has as much of it as any other no matter where they come from or what they do, if you give them the opportunity, they will each give as much light as anybody else. And "giving" the opportunity is not placing them in a pedestal but remaining there for them without closing doors and erecting walls of separation justifying the pedestal in which one's ego has placed one's self in the suffering of not being).

We want to be loved because we don't know what being is. When we ARE, we love without wanting. The question of desire roots itself in "beinglessness": the ego wants what it doesn't have. When we achieve inside what the ego is looking for, we can take what is there with joy and gratitude but the ego is never satisfied, it has to deny. It is always putting everything and anything around itself down so that it can float above convinced that it shines in the mud. We are all there in different degrees and we are all out of there in different degrees. Life is life: the commitment to unity and the endless struggle against separationism, today, in our inner selves as much as in our communities and the world at large.

We are One, we're just not conscious of our oneness and in that unconsciousness we separate each other from each other in our acts: that is suffering. When each of our acts connects us to each other then life pours its light in our selves and everything we do gives delight. Every job, every creation, every relationship is an act of giving, every individual in his and her own way is a giver. When we don't deny each other what we are giving, then creation is possible because we are each endless creators. The whole system of injustice today does not come from the economic sphere but from the unconsciousness with which we treat each other's being neglecting to acknowledge our humanity.

The system of hierarchies in which the political and economic spheres place people is a symptom of our unconsciousness, not the cause. The economic differences and the relationships of power cannot change until we are each more conscious of our Oneness as human beings.

Thanks for sharing.
