This blog is an excerpt from my new book which aims to spread awareness about how suffering spreads as an energy transfer with focus on sympathy or anger .
For a tree of peacefulness, good health and happiness to grow,
instead; mind training needs to be given to dissolve the negative energy stuck
on roots of thinking.
The core focus on constantly
searching for “What is Missing “, is fertilized as a seed of negative thinking
which leads to the development of a tree of negative thinking that grows with
several branches of ‘what is missing’ in every area of life. Children conditioned
into thinking negatively remain dis-satisfied in every sphere of life in
adulthood. The seed of thought is
fertilized by constant repetition of the same feeling of focusing on what is
missing with an obligation for a need to improve.
Once negative thinking spreads from
a suffering individual to mass consciousness, from micro to macro levels, it
multiplies suffering for all .A negative focus of thinking, leads to inherent
corruption, dis-satisfaction as the
dominating internal focus , criticism of optimism, impatience, fear of losing
fame or surface reputation, complaining
attitudes, and mass aggression in the form of
terrorisms and wars. As the inner disharmony surfaces up, individual
bodies face diseases/abuse and the planet Earth throws up suppressed negative
energy to restore its inner positive balance in the form of floods, epidemics
or violence.
As the dirt shows up on the
surface, the authorities desperately seek to erase the dismal picture without
looking into the cause, which arises from the roots of the educational system.
.
A sustained focus on the need to improve physical accomplishments at
the cost of sacrifice of inner understanding, which begins in childhood as a
side-effect of the general focus on ‘what is missing ‘, leads to
development of greed overruling need, in adulthood as the mind-set that seeks
continuous improvements moves to a cycle of greed which redefines ‘need’
as an endless, disproportionate craving for more. Greed leads to restlessness,
obesity, alcoholism and corruption which lead to rising frustrations and anger
in mass consciousness.
Instead of correcting flaws in the
educational structure, there is a search for Who to blame when conflicts
escalade. Subsequently, the visible flaws of government policies, terrorists
and criminals are blamed almost as arbitrarily, as famines are blamed for lack
of water supply.
Metaphorically, just as the
primitive man passed responsibility of every problem on the rains, in the
modern day, the government policies of the day are conveniently blamed for all
unrest in society while individuals escape responsibility. However, the
government as a macro unit, reflects the problems faced by individuals as micro
units.
Once the individual mind’s dominant
vibrational point is set on an energy cycle of being negative & restless,
governments cannot control violence by sweeping dirt from the surface.
Peacefulness is eroded by focusing on negative aspects of life and complaining
about injustice, without understanding that there is virus in the roots of
behavior.
Children learn more by imitation of
adult behavior than preaching. Since domestic violence, bullying, abuse or
threats, continue as tools for teaching children , violence in adulthood or
bullying is an accepted norm when these children grow up to be leaders. Economic
dominance is used to threaten other nationalities because it is traditionally
assumed that competition is necessary as Earth is a scarcely resourced planet,
wherein bullying & monopolization help to survive.
Logical methods of reasoning are
ignored as violence and competition offer faster methods of achieving an
outcome, even though it does not change inner mind-sets to positive. Criminals
and terrorists are created because there is an inherent belief that competitive
violence helps in instilling obedience. Wars are planned for by competing
armies, being maintained at the cost of sacrifice of emotional/ human
development.
Even entertainment in the modern
world revolves around competitive sports, competitive dance programs and the
paradigm of defeating the weak. People waste hours to relax by watching cricket
and soccer matches because the hormonal ups and downs created by competitive
situations, work as addictions. There can be far greater relaxation created if
the same amount of time and energy was invested on meditation, sleeping or just
being in a peaceful or positive state of neutral detachment. Relaxing the sense
organs helps in improving health and happiness while watching sports or eating
junk foods have negative effects on being peaceful or healthy. Yet, the war
games are created and cultivated by adults enjoying the virtual emotional
killing as happens in video games.
The same war mind-set spreads to
real life from the sports field, and creates religious fights, terrorism and
crime thrills. The more criminals and
terrorists are killed, the more they get created further as the focus of
individual thinking remains on enjoying competition.
The abusers who exert negative power to win
success, feel most anxious, bitter and unhealthy themselves. However, abuse
continues to rule as competitive success is glorified – be it negatively
exerted or positively responsible. Just as children get away by obtaining good
marks through cheating, adults get away by obtaining power by side-lining
ethics and betraying mass welfare.
There is no distinction made
between negative power and positive power as minds are conditioned during
childhood by the educational structure which does not teach a distinction
between positive power ( success with understanding , satisfaction and
happiness ) and negative power (success without contentment which
reduces peacefulness or happiness).
A balanced mind would aim at
addressing both spiritual and material needs so that happiness and health
improve in self and others; but a competitive mind aims at success even if the
pursuit deteriorates health and peace of mind for self and everyone involved.
