Rules and Regulations
By mati. Filed in Life |
We live in a society that is filled with rules and regulations. There are boards all over the place, interfering, meddling and controlling, telling everyone what they can and can’t do, and basically taking away the indivicual’s rights to decide for themselves what they want. Why is that?
There are two reasons for this – one is that freedom only works with responsibility. It is like two wings of a bird. If you want to fly, you have to have both. Having only freedom, and refusing to take responsibility will create nothing but trouble and eventually result in anarchy and chaos. Having only responsibility and no freedom, gives your life a stagnant, joyless quality. The solution is to embrace both freedom and responsibility, and let your awareness guide your actions.
The problem is, most people don’t have enough awareness to embrace both sides of duality. They’ll choose either freedom, or responsibility, and these two sides will start fighting among themselves.
The side that chooses responsibility, becomes so over responsible that it isn’t enough for them to just be responsible for themselves – they have to tell everyone else what to do as well because they are on a mission to kill people’s freedom. Why should you enjoy your freedom if they live a joyless life full of seriousness and responsibility? You need to grow up and become serious, too, and if you don’t want to, they’ll make you.
These are all second chakra issues. In India they talk about 7 chakras, which are energy centers that are situated in different areas of the body. The first chakra has to do with basic survival. The second chakra has to do with power, money and sexual relationships, and unfortunately, humanity resonnates with only the first and second chakra so far. Even though human beings have been on the earth for thousands of years, our mass consciousness has only reached the second chakra.
The first chakra has to do with tribal issues – do as the tribe tells you, don’t think for yourself, follow traditions and tribal laws, etc. This is where we find military, courts, traditional religions, etc.
On the second chakra level we find politicians and law makers. Because second chakra perception of reality is all about who is in power over who, our country is, unfortunately, ruled by people with very little insight, or consciousness, and you can’t expect to find any love or compassion here, since these qualities belong to the fourth chakra, which they haven’t reached yet. These people love to regulate and make others obey to preserve their power, and, of course, they get paid extremely well, since love equals money on the second chakra level. Basicallly, the amount of money made is what makes their lives worth living. (That explains the expectations of bonuses etc – it is the only kind of love they know, and everybody wants some kind of love, whatever it means to them).
Too bad humanity hasn’t gotten any further in its expansion of consciousness! Nothing has changed much since Jesus chased the money changers out of the temple over 2000 years ago! And if people don’t start “getting it” soon, nothing will change in the next 2000 years either.
The people who are in power don’t easily give up their power. The more people want freedom, the more the politicians and lawmakers clamp down with rules and regulations to keep people from rebelling. But, they can’t stop a rebellion of consciousness from happening. We must hold the vision of a better world, and promote rebellion (with responsibility) any way we can. We must work on ourselves to break free from old useless patterns that we carry from the past, and we must, most of all, teach our young ones to stand up for themselves, and to become authentic beings instead of obedient zombies. The time has come to WAKE UP!
