For humanity to be freed from its slavery
Free from all the bonds currently tying it into the system whether seen or unseen
We have two parts to our brain...the 'reptillian' part of the brain which is the oldest part. This part is concerned with territorial behaviours, competition and the flight or fight response. Overlaid on top of this was the mammalian part of the brain which is responsible for nurturing and cooperation
We live under a system that constantly seeks to lock everyone into reptillian thinking: competition, possessiveness, fear, stress etc
Think about it.....we live in a war economy, we are constantly afraid of not paying bills, or rents, constantly competing with others for work or job posts or partners. We are told we must POSSESS things for example land, material goods, status items etc. We build fences everywhere to mark our territory because that is the rules to the game we are all brought up in; the ideology of consumerism relies on making people feel insecure so that they buy more stuff. People are made to feel they have to live upto certain created standards producing stress and status anxiety.
Individuals compete in this system, corporations compete (except at the top where they merge known as 'consolidation') and countries compete
This reptillian brain thinking keeps everyone divided and competing with each other and struggling to constantly jump through hoops....but does it make people happy?
We need a change of system....to one which is more mammalian brain based....more cooperation, more nurturing, more sharing
This would relieve much of the stress, the flight or fight, the conflicts, the tensions, the uncertainty and so on which plague our societies.
This then brings us to the question of why that isn't happening
Anyone who studies the system finds out that there are people in the system who weild more power than others. These people shape and maintain the system. Its their system. They are locked into the reptillian mind and all of their behaviours are shaped by that. They build a world in their image. This is why we live in a war economy when the vasy majority of humans abhore war. This is why we are all constantly competing when it stresses most people out. This is why some people have all the wealth and many of the opportunites when others struggle to make ends meet.
Those people and the ways in which they influence the way people think is the major obstacle to human happiness
Many spiritual people will tell you to look within for your happiness but the inner and the outer are linked.
As Ghandi said: ''Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.''
So a happier world would be one where more people whould be able to do that....and that is not a reptillian world
