Definition Of Spiritual

The ability to confront what is, not just what we want to be, is part of the road out.

If you get what you put your attention on, or what you validate, or to what you grant beingness, we should all be putting our attention very firmly on the future we wish to create.

For me that is a society of aware, free, ethical and healthy individuals enlightened as to their basic purpose in life, educated in how to effectively pursue their purpose, governed by a governmental structure preserving their freedom, protecting the environment for future generations and coexisting peacefully with other nations and improving the peace and harmony of all.
Pretty much the opposite of what we have.

An society of mostly unaware, unhealthy robot slaves governed by an elitist, know-best clique perpetually imposing a harsher police state, funded by unethical and immoral multi-nationals intent on pillaging, plundering and laying waste the environment as a consequence of the purpose to make as much profit as possible.

Canada's official commission called the school program for its native people “cultural genocide.”

We did nothing like that here is Oz of course.
The Anglo-American-Australian culture needs to be changed by we the people.
We need be more respectful of indigenous cultures that in many ways, while being less technologically sophisticated, were more intelligent, more ethical, more responsible and more civilised, with each other and the environment,than our own culture.
We could learn a lot from their ways.
Some of us already have.

Lessons From The Farmyard

This month’s events in Syria and Europe only serve to remind us t hat when one country takes it on itself to destabilise another, like the US has in Syria, EVERYONE loses.
There was a farmer who grew excellent quality corn. Every year he won the award for the best grown corn. One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something interesting about how he grew it. The reporter discovered that the farmer shared his seed corn with his neighbors.
“How can you afford to share your best seed corn with your neighbors when they are entering corn in competition with yours each year?” the reporter asked.
“Why sir,” said the farmer, “Didn’t you know? The wind picks up pollen from the ripening corn and swirls it from field to field. If my neighbors grow inferior corn, cross-pollination will steadily degrade the quality of my corn. If I am to grow good corn, I must help my neighbors grow good corn.”
So is with our lives… Those who want to live meaningfully and well must help enrich the lives of others, for the value of a life is measured by the lives it touches. And those who choose to be happy must help others find happiness, for the welfare of each is bound up with the welfare of all…
-Call it power of collectivity…
-Call it a principle of success…
-Call it a law of life.
The fact is, none of us truly wins, until we all win!!
