The Matrix: FOG and Collective Consciousness

Another one I recently wrote elsewhere(before starting this blog) I think this post belongs here

This morning I had some interesting thoughts about underlying problems in our society - civilization...

First let me say what I believe is a GOAL for HUMANITY:

- it's Evolution of Consciousness!

yes I believe it's not our reproduction, I believe it's not our power and wealth, I believe it's not even our survival, it's our Consciousness Evolution!

And by saying consciousness I mean COLLECTIVE Consciousness! Because if one man/woman knows something, this off course might spark a viral spread, yet is highly unlikely that it will! it's only when the critical mass has adopted the idea, when it reaches the significant level.

And currently I see a PROBLEM with that!

Why?

Well has to do with a FOG, that is all around us! Does the saying bring any similarities? Well Morpheus once said this in the matrix - it's all around us,it blinds our eyes of the true reality!

That is what ACTUALLY is happening with our society. We are living in a Matrix! and this matrix(the FOG) clouds our vision of true reality!

So what is exactly this FOG?

We are a very capable beings, capable of :

- understanding ourselves(self consciousness), the world around (science) us and our impact on it(social responsibility)

- Free will - deciding what do we do with the resources that we have (time, power, influence, social connections, knowledge, etc.. )

So we should be able to understand that we are ONE with the rest of the Universe. ("Me and you are of the same blood" Mawgli, call of the jungle) And yes - some of us DO understand this! yet....

Our civilization at one point took a very cloudy path - path of Individualization, which led to many many ills in our current society:

0. Originally we are one with the universe then formed INDIVIDUALISM

(elders say that we understood this underlying principle - that one cannot function without another and then, individualism developed...)

1. Individualism led to Selfish Short Sight

(by carring only how to satisfy our individualistic selfish needs we forgot the the underlying principle- that we are ONE(everything is connected, and one cannot function without another in this universe)

2. Short Sight led to Separation

(We started viewing ourselves as separate from the universe, we started thinking that we can utilize the universe to satisfy our individualistic needs)

3. Separation led to formation of differing levels

(of imporatance)

4. Leveling led to Evaluation of everything (aournd us: ppl, surroundings, animals) based on various KPI's

(KPI's: wealth, influence, soc status, all boils down to - how this object satisfies MY individualistic needs, etc..)

5. Evaluation led to Accumulation of Knowledge/Power

(Certain groups which accumulated most Power/Knowledge started valuing themselves as being more important than the rest of universes elements - other groups of ppl, environment, etc.. )

6. Accumulation of power/Knowledge led to formation of Control mechanisms placed in hands of few short sighted ones

(where few understand how our psysche works and are utilizing this - by  controlling the many, into following THEIR individualistic virtues/goals. These mechanisms are: artificial attention attractors, detracting us from IMPORTANT THINGS, sucking us back into individualistic way of life)

7. Control mechanisms in hands of short sighted lead to Formation of collective consciousness which is also short sighed and  Separate from the rest of the Universe

(directed by FEW extremely selfish individuals)

8.  Short sighted Collective consciousness  leads to formation of Cancerous Society

(cancer cells are cells which fail to communicate to the Whole body, and act selfishly consuming the life out of the rest of the body, without understanding that, and without realizing that when the body fails, the cancer itself will fail to exist too. Our current state of civilization is heading the same way, we fail to communicate to the rest of universe, we think we are masters of it and therefore we guided by our selfish ILL needs & improvise God, yet When the body (earth) is depleted of all life bringing energy, it will Die... and we fail to realize, that we will die with it! Therefore We are the same as Cancer )

7. Cancerous Society leads to DEATH of Earth

(it's just a matter of time, until cancer consumes the body. Same applies if the body is earth, and cancer is the society/Civilization)

So Individualism leads to DEATH of Earth & of our Civilization

There are sooooooooo many things happening, so many distractions, that we FAIL to see the big picture, fail to see the TRUE connections. We start to believe that we are the MOST important, and  we act accordingly, destroying everything else, utilizing it to the last drop/living being. 

I can only hope, that with the invention of INTERNET, we can accelerate certain processes:

- evolution of communities which UNDERSTAND the underlying principle, that we are ONE with the rest of the universe, that everything is CONNECTED, and that the faith of earth depends on our choices and actions

- degradation of Individualism, and increase valuation of collectivism (embracing the underlying principle)

- connection with the rest of the Earth, stopping utilizing it to meet our individualistic selfish needs and starting co-evolving with it!

I just hope these ideas will reach Critical mass, until it's too late

Please fellow human beings, Wake up to this
