The Lesson
WHY OUR TRANSFORMATION TO A LOVE-BASED WORLD IS INEVITABLE.
To many, probably most, this seems like an absurd proposition given what we are witnessing on the planet today but hear me out.
Humanity has been spiraling upwards for millennia — from warlords’ brute force to divine-right of kings supported by a corrupt Catholic Church putting the Bible in Latin to hide the truth to the U.S faux-democracy of slave-owning landowner to the end of physical slavery even as other forms of economic and political slavery remained to voting rights for women and blacks to end of Jim Crow laws during the Civil Rights Era to the challenging (unsuccessfully) of America’s many recent immoral wars during and after Vietnam to gay rights to the MeToo movement to Black Lives Matter. It has been a long, slow, painful upward spiral as the ruling class — both hidden and known — begrudgingly gave up their misbegotten gains.
As a one-room schoolhouse where evolving souls come to remember love through as many lifetimes as they chose, it is inevitable that all will eventually awaken given two elements encoded into our DNA: pain and intelligence.
After many painful lifetimes caught in the dream — or rather the nightmare — of separation, each human, driven and guided by its intelligence, has a threshold of pain from which they seek relief by use of their intelligence.
