TED, NDE, Open Heart & Mind and Our Fundamental Unity

One characteristic of this blog is that it is a work in progress to refine and expound a universal worldview that can take any belief system, convictions, problem or it's huge promise - any information, and help us see the relevance, meaning and significance of any information, expressed in simple ideas, and wield it as the power to transform our world.  To transform our world into a more just and sustainable global home.

My belief system and your belief system or principles and convictions is the perspective that you and I  believe can transform our world but our diverse society, in order for it to strongly progress needs to be more aware of the fundamental unity that we all have.  This fundamental unity can be made more strong and apparent when we define it in a "universal" language that avoids bias and prejudice arising from our perceptions that other belief systems and cultures are different and are invading or converting our own belief system.  Our own perspective has wisdom and truth when it can take any other perspective and see its translation into our own, realizing our fundamental unity.

If you and I want to truly see this universal worldview, what our true freedom shows is that we can open our hearts and minds to any ideas that we perceive to be different or contradictory to our own set of principles and see how it translates into our own and realize that we do all have a universal worldview. The only difference is we express it in our diverse cultures and language.  When we open our hearts and minds to care and understand, the hope and promise is we will see this universal worldview.

The essence of the belief system that I have grown into and the NDE which I would call the"anomaly" of all belief systems (belief systems being only based on "faith") and non-theist convictions (the anomaly of scientific evidence of higher dimensions) has so far shown me our fundamental unity.

This what I call "universal perspective" has given me consistencies and meaning to any TED talk, news or any information that I have encountered so far.

This is the basis of my intuition that we can transform our world, if we all keep an open mind to understand and an open heart to care, and translate all these into concrete actions.

Here are some of the links to TED conversations that shows in one way or another our fundamental unity.

The Power of Simple Ideas to Transform our World

Confusion, unnecessary debates and arguments, cultural battles, disharmony, fragmentation, ineffectiveness, inefficiencies.  This is the net result of ideas and philosophies that needs to be translated and grounded in simple ideas that most people can understand, find meaning, relevance, enlightenment, harmony, unity, effectiveness and efficiencies.

Our Current Reality

We think to understand our world and we care to keep our world happily living in a society we all share.  We have the freedom of our cultural diversity enabled by our singular voice we call our government.

Our government is strengthened by justice and truth; guaranteeing our rights primarily provided by business who take from mother earth and provide for our needs.

Our reality today is a problem to many people, hence our desire to make it right.  We make it right by simply putting the principles to work - improve and increase understanding, elevate the power of our hearts to care and bring real happiness, and we make the government-business system to work right.

Is our Government complicated?

It is complex within its inner workings yet it works in a simple formula.  We the people live and socialize and in order for us to do this in large scale, we empower a government to ensure  that we are all happily living and socializing.  We empower the business and economy that makes it all possible in an earth-sustainably way.

We have attempted in our history to make the system (government-business) work and it had produced tainted concepts like communism, socialism, totalitarianism and even capitalism.  We attempted to use different equations but the basic formula is still the same.

Could Capitalism and Democracy work?

Capitalism and democracy is now our main system because this is the system that most closely resemble our human condition.  In this system we have the freedom to be happy and differ and produce the best ideas to progress our world, maintained by the principles of justice and truth.

Today even capitalism and democracy are being tainted by its failures.  But the failure is the result of failed implementation and not the principles.  The current profit model of our business does not work with our limited resources that is why we need to reformulate it to include equitability (in basic rights) and earth-sustainability.  We have to understand too that the rise of economic and political power is relevant  also in providing global security and stability and I think the developed nations are providing that today.

Achieving the Reality that We All Need

The developed nations have spearheaded a lot of our systemic progress but it is also showing signs of weakness because these nations have somehow deviated from the principles and failed to stimulate one key power that can transform our world.  We have missed  the need for more caring and content citizens - needs that deal with the essential dynamics of our heart, our love, our happiness and ultimately our minds. 

This is why today we need to translate and contribute the power of our beliefs and convictions into the simple universal language of our mutual interests and wield it as a driving force to transform our world.  Today we energize our hearts, we energize each other, we energize our hearts and minds and together we transform our world.
