The Gospel of War, if you want Peace prepare for war
From ambassadors of conflict to messengers aware of peace
True Peace is not only the absence of war, but also of all the emotional negativity of the human being. Harmony and serenity already dwell in us, as well as truth and positive qualities, it is only necessary to hear again, to listen in silence, and all the most precious inner treasures will blossom in unison.
The actual armed confrontation is only the visible tip of the iceberg, a striking aspect of the war, the one that moves the minds that suddenly rise from the sofa and say: ”Putin is a criminal, it is not acceptable to invade a foreign country and make massacres of innocent women and children”. But these people need to understand that, the tanks that invade a country, is just the final act of something that is being prepared day by day, starting from our consciousnesses, the war is a social structure, a way by which we have organized the entire society, because education itself is separating and teaches conflict.
So the war has become a philosophical, spiritual, psychological, social, cultural and economic structure, born of our own consciousness, of our ”false self” that feels separated from itself, from others, and this is the feeling of division that is the source of war.
To be pacifist does not mean to go to the streets to protest against the war or to be indignant before the television, for the criminal invasion perpetrated by the despotic of the moment, but to work on ourselves to dissolve that nature of conflict that we already have inside, that we express in our daily lives, when we clash with the people around us, and show aggression towards those who attack us.
True Peace is first of all a journey within us, in search of all those stimuli, in most cases unconscious, that make us react aggressively when we feel attacked. It’s a huge but essential work, we should base a new education on this key of inner pacification that further on will transmits outside as well.
Can we change the fate of our destiny?
Currently the world we live in seems to be addicted to violence, and like the worst addict, it requires stupidly, unconsciously, and automatically its dose of cruelty, of arrogance, of malevolence, and the drug system itself is not interested in the destructive consequences of these behaviors, for him the priority is to appease his addiction.
But war is a self-destructive choice born from a sick conscience, incapable of understanding itself and its own models of functioning.
Faced with this situation, the pacifists seem to be silenced, unable to respond to the completely rational and logical discourses of those who preach: ”let us take up arms to defend ourselves” or ”If you want peace prepare the war”. It seems more than ever to be back in fashion the famous: ”Let's arm ourselves and go”, while the patriotic heroism regains strength as in the good times...
But now let’s ask ourselves carefully, ”It's truly like this?”
Must we convert to the logic of violence, brush up from the museum of prehistory the eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth of Mosaic memory?
Can we ever live in a peaceful world?
What can we do against the war?
