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.

"That is, if we can't communicate what does it matter if we no longer try."

To the mouth that never stops running: the good news is you get to do what you like to do best, listen to yourself talk. The bad news is no one else will listen to a mouth that never stops pouring out the automatic, hyper-stimulated opinions that occur spontaneously and ceaselessly within the confines of an unattended mind.

Learn to only express every one hundredth thought that happens to you without any effort on your part or else live in a nightmare world filled exclusively with your own noise.

Think about this: no one is pushing you away because you insistently tell them intelligent and important things, quite the opposite.

Make an effort to learn how to say something intelligent and then only say intelligent, well thought out things sparingly, and eventually people will come to you.

You can't follow this advice because you have no self-control (because your vanity is out of control) and so you doom yourself to follow the misguided instructions coming from your own warped mind.

When you hear another voice speaking make an effort to shut up and think, rather than as you typically do now: thoughtlessly open your automatic mouth and let the noise pour out.

Hi Anonymous,

I only just saw your post today on the first of October. I thank you for it. There's a lot of truth in it. Sometimes I'm ever so arrogant it's sick and yet sometimes I'm ever so sweet, brilliant and loving and you never acknowledge it so I'll keep the half of your vision knowing the other half is unperceived even by you.

Still, thank you for bothering to write.

Your critics are as welcome as you. We are not pretending to be perfect here but to be here with all our imperfections without fear of addressing them so that we can better balance our selves after years of no communication in the Fellowship cult and in fact, in the cult of our times in which people mostly communicate conditioned by class, education, nationality and other such separating conditions.

If communicating as humans means tearing down each other's vanity and what ever else is stopping us, let's tear it down gently so that we can survive!

Elena
