The systems which humanity depends upon within our modern society, are the same systems which control us. We’ve given our power away, which is exactly what the systems were designed to do… (Part 1 covered History, Education, Science, Politics, Military and Police and the Economy)
Education
We no longer listen to our intuition, our inner voice, our higher selves. Instead, giving the influence to the creators of history, the controllers of reality. Not educating, but programming our youth with carefully selected “truths”, for it is the winners who write history, not the losers. And in order to find truth, we must balance the two perspectives.
The purpose of education
There are two concepts of the “purpose of education”. The first comes from the era of the Enlightenment, where traditional thinking states that education is a process of Enquiring and Creating constructively and independently without external control. It’s about seeking out the riches of the past and internalising the important parts, or the parts which are important to you. This style of education has children questioning and challenging a standard doctrine and searching for alternatives.
The second concept of education is indoctrination, where children are taught to accept and not challenge a certain set of data given to them. They are taught to fulfill the roles given them, that failure to follow those rules results in punishment. They are taught not to “shake the systems of power and authority”. Noam Chomsky (professor at MIT)
“I have never let my schooling interfere with my education.” Mark Twain
“Schools have not necessarily much to do with education... they are mainly institutions of control, where basic habits must be inculcated in the young. Education is quite different and has little place in school.” Winston Churchill
It is rumoured that John D. Rockefeller, in 1903, once said, “I want a nation of workers, not thinkers.” And not rumoured but fact, he was elemental in creating our current education system.
True education comes from Mother Earth, intuition, your Higher Self. True education comes from listening, not from projecting what you “think” is true. For when you think, you do not know!
Religion and spirituality
At the core, the central truth of each religion or spiritual practice, is the same essence, the same truth spoken and shared through different ages, cultures, traditions, etc. We are One!
Hinduism
“One should not behave toward others in a way which is disagreeable to oneself.” Mahabharata (Anusasana Parva 113.8), Hindu text
Islam
“The Prophet Muhammad said, ‘None of you [truly] believes until he loves for his brother that which he loves for himself.’” [Al-Bukhari], Hadith 13
Christianity
“So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.” (Matthew 7:12, NIV)
Judaism
‘That which is despicable to you, do not do to your fellow, this is the whole Torah, and the rest is commentary, go and learn it.’” Hillel the Elder in The Babylonian Talmud
Baha’i
“Choose thou for thy neighbor that which thou choosest for thyself.” Baha’u’llah, Baha’i prophet
Buddhism
“Hurt not others with that which pains yourself.” Udanavarga (5:18), Buddhist text
Daoism
“Regard your neighbor’s gain as your own gain, and your neighbor’s loss as your own loss.” T’ai Shang Kan Ying P’ien, Daoist text
Confucianism
“Tzu-kung asked, ‘Is there a single word which can be a guide to conduct throughout one’s life?’ The Master said, ‘It is perhaps the word “shu.” Do not impose on others what you yourself do not desire.’” The Analects (15:24), Confucian text
And so we wage war on whether it’s a 6 or a 9.
5 Blind men and the elephant
A group of blind men heard that a strange animal, called an elephant, had been brought to the town, but none of them were aware of its shape and form. Out of curiosity, they said, "We must inspect and know it by touch, of which we are capable". So, they sought it out, and when they found it they groped about it. The first person, whose hand landed on the trunk, said, "This being is like a thick snake". For another one whose hand reached its ear, it seemed like a kind of fan. As for another person, whose hand was upon its leg, said, the elephant is a pillar like a tree-trunk. The blind man who placed his hand upon its side said the elephant, "is a wall". Another who felt its tail, described it as a rope. The last felt its tusk, stating the elephant is that which is hard, smooth and like a spear.
Health
We no longer listen to our bodies, other than in fear, rushing to the doctor’s with every pang, every symptom. Giving away our natural gift of healing to outside energy, technologies and medications that lower our natural healing vibrations instead of increasing them.
We treat the doctors and their diagnosis as the word of God, instead of the puppets of the pharma industry that governs them, when in truth, they are no more enlightened than the mechanic that works on your car.
In my life, I’ve had much experience with doctors, most of which have turned out to be incorrect. I was given rhinoplasty (an operation on the nose to help with breathing), a very painful experience I might add, only to be told later it wasn’t necessary and that I had asthma and bronchitis, both of which I have no issue today.
I was given 6 months to a year to live, yet I’m still here today more than a decade later. And I am not the only patient to share these experiences of “healing”.
"The pharmaceutical industry... is more focused on making money for its shareholders than maintaining or improving the health of those who rely on its products." Dr. John Abramson, former Harvard Medical School professor.
Profit Over Prevention: “You only really succeed when people are not well... and it’s because there’s so much money being made on chronic disease.” Dr. Mark Hyman
The truth about natural remedies, energy healing and etc., should be taught alongside current practices so the public can make informed decisions.
Support of “Natural Foods” over processed, made available to all, not who can afford it. All patents and technology regarding health made available to public and health companies. Support for small and mid-sized farms (private, not corporate) organic health driven food and medicines.
Sacred medicines made available for all who wish. Support and education for healers. Drug companies can no longer sponsor doctors or medical systems. A person's body is their own. No government mandates should supersede this.
Food and water
“Who controls the food supply controls the people, who controls the energy can control whole continents, who controls money can control the world.” Henry Kissinger
Only 10 companies control almost every large food and beverage brand in the world. These companies – Nestlé, PepsiCo, Coca-Cola, Unilever, Danone, General Mills, Kellogg's, Mars, Associated British Foods, and Mondelez.
Medicine/drugs
What is the difference between Medicine and Drugs? Intention. Evil is bred, when what we should do, Isn’t done.
The Systems of Control have been in the works for longer than you can imagine. The forces behind them understand the rules of this game and have chosen to use them for their personal benefit, instead of the greatest good for all, which was/is their true purpose.
We have given our power away through Fear and Control. It’s time to take it back with Love and Freedom!
Ubuntu
Ubuntu is not easy to describe. It is both a philosophy and a way of action. It is a distinctive African cosmological system of teaching each individual to appreciate and enjoy their life while caring, sharing and respecting others. Ubuntu belongs to no one tribe or no one religion or teaching. It transcends all attempts to restrict it and place it in a category.
According to ancient African traditional wisdom, each individual possesses positive, loving qualities. These qualities represent our natural internal state of being. When we express them, we are being genuine, authentic human beings. To be otherwise is to be out of harmony. And to be out of harmony brings unhappiness to ourselves, others, and our world.
“Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu.” I am because you are. It is through you that I am a human being. Ubuntu is simply a way of living and being that allows our basic goodness to come forth. It is the art of being a human being. It is the living of our humanness. It is the unfolding of our natural goodness. Each living human being has this opportunity to discover their basic goodness and to practice it.
