Something shifted in my thinking this morning. I began to see
the people in thrall of the military mindset to be pitied rather than feared,
as not very evolved in their soul and heart. Yes, in this material world, they
may be powerful, they may look successful, and they may have accumulated a
great deal of money. But really, how important is any of that compared to the
ability to be kind and compassionate, or to see others as sisters and brothers?
What drives these people who want to dominate the world with
military force? Fear. Insecurity. The need to prove themselves. The sense that
they are so different from others that they need to kill anyone who they feel
might threaten what they have.
They are not strong enough within themselves to simple be one
among others; their weakness drives them to use military force to prop
themselves up and appear strong, like the use of crutches for a lame person.
It is very important for these people to shut others out, to
feel superior to them, to club together, as in the white people first, America
first movement. It's not just America first, it's the Western world fighting to
retain dominance in world affairs.
I welcome a multi-polar world. I welcome the coming world where
the U.S. no longer dominates the globe with its military force. It's coming.
And its coming is inevitable.
The truth is that we are multi-dimensional beings. And that this
material world is like the earth's crust. That's all we see or really know of
this planet. But the Earth is so much more than it's surface. Is the center of
the Earth hollow? Is it made of crystal? Or is it molten magma, as scientists
tell us?
Whatever is in the center of the Earth, we have no experience of
it. I believe the scientists, but there are people who think it's hollow. Is
this the round earth/flat earth controversy of our times? I doubt it. Most
people just don't think about the Earth beyond its surface that we know.
War and violence will end when people realize the truth about
what's really important. It's not about gaining material wealth nor is it about
having acclaim, power and success. It's about our spirit and soul evolution,
becoming better people, appreciating what we have, caring more for each other
and all life.
And if we were to learn that deep inside ourselves, in the
universe within, that we are part of each other, and part of the Earth, and we
cannot harm others without harming ourselves, would we put down our arms, and
declare peace together?
'You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope
some day you will join us. And the world will love as one." -- John Lennon
