A revolution? Well, yes, perhaps. But I think it would need to be a new kind of revolution - not one of those old-fashioned ones with all the guns and blood and stuff - those tended to replace one crappy government with another, in most cases.

There does seem to be a lot of inertia in the system. As I said on one of the other threads, I fear that politicians have become addicted to fear. They find it hard to resist the temptation to promote fear and hatred as a way of raising money. It just works sooo well!!

Changing that would be revolutionary. But how?

By changing ourselves?

Domenicoluigi, I think you have the answer. Probably that's the answer to most questions.

I am afraid I just engaged in a little rant up there, didn't I?

Changing ourselves changes the world so slowly - we are all so impatient for it to happen NOW! But eventually it works. I try to live a life with less fearfulness. That's what I can do. Gradually, we model that for people around us, and change happens.

And what a journey this is Brian!

I believe that as long as we honestly feel to be in this progress (never perfection) we are on the right track.

Anything that bothers me is actually helping me clean those negative feelings that are in the end fears. The Ego, the mind, our petty creations trying to impose.

It is easier to conquer the world than to conquer ourselves said somebody and how correct he was.
