RE: Why do we fight to change the world?

in #philosophy8 years ago

Ultimately anyone can choose to never engage violence. OBVIOUSLY there is no NEED for violence. Logically in a perfect world it would all work out just fine with many solutions besides violence.
Yet the other part is that violence is real, in truth is is PREDOMINANT in the world we live in.
The problem comes when people or groups have ideals of non violence yet violence is used against them. What then? The problem is that there will always be those who USE violence as a way to get what they want. If there was no one else that used it likely that person could take almost whatever they want quite easily.
Can success be had with the principles of "Non Violence", YES of course!
Yet look at someone like Ghandi who is one of the best examples of such success. He spent HALF his life in JAIL. Violence was used against him despite his non violence. Also the violence he apposed despite his success is still alive and well today. He did not abolish anything.

Not necessarily...but its hard to explain why.
It all has to do with energetics...
Vibrations and collective consciousness.

Technically if our consciousnesses is raised to a certain level, there couldn't exist any reflections of fear...because everything is a reflection.

The law of attraction is a basic scientific law of the universe.

Yes~
Anything is possible and yes it ALL has to do with energetics.
It is great to see someone post about energetics as it is the way I view reality, yet we don't see much of that kind of consciousness here on Steemit.
So yes everything is a reflection, bust just the fact that any of us want to change the world or don't like the way government works proves we have resistance and thus will continue to experience various degrees of "violence"

hey @coloured-content and @quinneaker and @everyone, would you mind elaborating on "energetics"?
I'm very interested to hear and I think it may be helpful to others as well to hear your understanding of this. Sounds cool.

Also, @quinneaker, you mentioned that "yet we don't see much of that kind of consciousness here on Steemit." - Why might you suppose?

@coloured-content Woo-Woo!!! Love it! ~

energetics

We mean the basic principles of laws of energy, which everything consists of.
