WHY ARE OUR LIVES SO DEPENDENT ON A SYSTEM THAT MUST EXPLOIT US IN ORDER TO SUSTAIN US?

Image Courtesy of Dreamstine.com

Our operating systems are failing us. Our regionally scarce past had confused our selshness as solutions. Solutions that now present more problems than they solve. Prosperity with poverty, productivity with pollution, the fat and sick gorging on the miseries of the weak and starving, while the underlying methods behind the madness go ignored. So, we continue running our world with the ideas and isms that benet one group over another, expressed with manifestos...that separate us even more!

Destroying our world to chase imaginary wealth does not make sense to anyone now...not even to those who now run the game. We simply cannot x these problems with the same thinking that had created them. This is now the time for us to grow up, reorganize ourselves with the understanding of our true nature, and tap into the deeper wisdom we have had all along. Now is the time for our UNMANIFESTO

Each of us have our own unique gifts to share. How can we share them freely to help each other, when we have confused who we really are with our names, faces, skins and places? Labels we learned from a us or them scarce resource survival scenario which obviously no longer exists! If it did, why would we have to plan throwaway obsolescence into perfectly usable things? Or justify useless incarceration and wars to create jobs? We have long outgrown those time and place boundaries. UN MANI FESTO

Boundaries are only the conventions to transcend when we can imagine doing so. We have waited long enough to imagine a humanity beyond borders. You were born an original, not a standardized throwaway part of a malfunctioning machine. To stand up for equal access to be uniquely ourselves is our inalienable universal right. We are no more defined by the measures of corporate marketers, just as we were never defined by the class distinctions made up by our monarchs. Now is the time to break free!

UN BOUND
How can we create a truly free civilization, if our ideas are still confused by the connes of conict? Can we ever protect our true potential with patents and prots when the best of who we are, and the best of what we have ever created has been the direct result of sharing openly? Open, inclusive problem solving has given us gems like agriculture to now the Internet which speaks volumes for itself. From our tools to trades, this has been and this is the way forward.

The expression conict of interest has become business as usual. Why? Isnt any conict just an idea bound by the context of who we think we are in relationship to who we think they are? What happens when we realize that they are us? Co-creative collaboration is not another new trend, it is the well established evolutionary path to a higher order of being. The same pattern that transforms simpler life forms to a higher order of complex organisms.

Prot=Poverty=War may have been the regionally scarce reality for as long as we can remember, but it has blinded us. How can we ever see our true selves when we are always ghting whoever they are at the moment? We can and must do better. Conict now is the position to overcome, not relish in. Compassion comes from understanding others who only appear to be our competition. The moment we understand and feel compassion towards each other, we are no longer enemies. Now is the time to realize the obvious.

We cannot steal from ourselves.

We are the open source collaboration of trillions of cells. Are each of us not the uniquely conscious, essential creators within this interdependent and interconnected force called life?

Our eyes only see what our minds are ready to comprehend. Humanity has evolved from the limited views of our scarce surroundings and we see differences more often than similarities, if not for anything other than what we had thought necessary for our immediate survival. Until now, linear, deterministic, reductionist logic gave us the comfortable illusions of knowledge, within the isolated age of hostile local conditions. Now that we can see farther and wider, should we not also live wiser?

Survival against outsiders has been exploited within us. The weak are meat and the strong do eat had been the default operating principle. Waste has never been my problem, because my premise has always been about the survival of me and my tribe and not my neighbors. Except now we can actually see that the unseen ties that bind us are not just metaphorical, but literal. Prot will neither provide empowerment to all nor extrication to space for the chosen few, when pollution is hard wired into the design itself! It is high time we realized that we cannot crap in our own kitchens!

Waste is simply unacceptable when we see things full circle. Linear processes are just paths within the whole cycles, nested within other interconnected cycles within one innite loop. There is no I without We nor any We without me. When we can see how our actions translate to reactions that affect all of us, the experience forever alters the behavior we thought was acceptable. Those views are available to us here and now. It is time to see bigger.

A living system intelligently appropriates key resources for its interdependent essential functions. These core functions focus on regeneration directly dependent on the optimized execution of elimination, assimilation and distribution. We too can rebalance our operating systems with the simplicity and elegance of natural ows. The R.E.A.D. model from GROW, designed to account for sustainable systemic abundance is a good example of this. Regeneration, or the cycling of essential functions. Elimination, or the selective ltering to ensure pure inputs. Assimilation, or the efciency optimized packaging for delivery. Distribution, or the matching of resources with needs.

In a living system optimized for system integrity, we no longer have to keep score for an uncertain future by polluting and pillaging against the present. Dynamic systems founded on ow, focus on the value optimization now, instead of speculating on future frictions. It measures energy inputs that cancel each other out towards equilibrium instead of the uncertain and often false promises of future equity. We focus on accounting for ZERO. Zero impact, zero total cost of living, zero frictions between resources and needs. We are all part of one innite loop. Its time to close the circle.

Wisdom is the Way

UNIVERSAL

The assumption of scarcity is now persuading us to unnecessarily produce and consume more, instead of doing more with less. This has since confused cleverness with wisdom and it is now confusing leadership with salesmanship. Leading chooses leaders, not the other way around. When wisdom is revered as the highest social position, the emphasis is no longer about selling but solving. Success is now about service, not selshness.

UN MANI FESTO

THE

UNIVERSAL
Cleverness is not wisdom. They are diametrically opposing concepts. Cleverness aims to hide whereas wisdom aims to reveal what was true all along. Wisdom chooses life, and the role of the wise in society has always been to empower, enlighten and enable those who are ready to see the truth.

UN MANI FESTO

The truth is singular. All versions of it are untruths that get in the way of solving for the actual issues at hand. When wisdom is the aspiration model, the pursuit of truth becomes the obsession to deliver us from the delusions du jour. This has been the evolution of our consciousness. Shouldnt this be our future of leading humanity?

All Value is Relative to Other Values

UNIVERSAL
Why is life now measured by money when it is money that should be measured by life? All value is arbitrary relative to other arbitrary values dened by our experiences, thus dened by a shared premise. Currently, economic value is premised on resource scarcity dened by its production and consumption rate expressed in terms of price money.

What happens now when the premise of production and consumption is no longer the real issue?

There are as many currencies as contexts. They exist in our everyday lives though they often go overlooked through the mirage of money. From airline miles, time bank co-credits, social network leaderboards, virtual rewards, complimentary local currencies, bankless, stateless, paperless cryptocurrencies and more, the mechanics are now maturing into practical measures to ll in the gaps where centralized at currencies are falling short. They are the new expressions of value exchange. They may only be the experiments of the mechanics for now. Nonetheless, they are quietly becoming universally accessible for a preview of better things to come.

With these new instruments in circulation, we can begin mapping our expectations to experience in real time. Eventually we can free ourselves of the archaic speculative mechanisms of savings, stocks or bonds to guarantee the transfer of value. In this exponentially advancing exabyte digital age, we can actually match resources to our real needs and wants and measure their impact relative to agenda. Seeing relative valuation in real time, instead of the debt fueled production and speculation cycles that now makes a few wealthy at the expense of everyone else.

What is the highest and best use of any resource? Whether material or metaphysical, nature has already given us the design manual. All we have to do is follow the ows. The vector to direct and the velocity to impact is no longer the cryptic guesswork of our institutional economists. Beyond the new symbols of contextual currencies, we are now also free to represent what we truly value and exchange.

Love is the ultimate game of life. Critics can reduce it down to a biochemical phenomena, but loves unseen forces continue to govern all aspects of our lives. Our material measures to satisfy the regional recognition is ultimately an means to an end. What if we bypassed the symbols and went directly to the source? We all want love. Love is the bridge between you and everything. The only force that truly binds us to all that we choose to derive meaning from.

We all want to love the life we live, as deeply and as often as possible. Everything we do, from oppression to ownership, drudgery to dividends, popularity to privacy is all in the pursuit of love. The mechanics of this game has been well established, though its mysterious forces rarely let us clearly see our longing for it through that lens. What if it did? How would we live our lives if we worked to achieve more love in less time without the distractions of politics, power, prot and all other activity we think will help us get it? What if we could go directly to the source? Into the heart of the game of life itself?

A game can be played in multiple levels of consciousness. The material, mental and metaphysical. The master players focus on the meta objective over the material or mental one. They focus only on the endgame and bypass chaos consuming players of the lower level games. The master game in life plays to the objective of love. Love is all there is. We are only the pieces.

The chart on the next page is a game lens to see the disconnect from our current activity to our pursuit of a life we love. It also shows the merging trends and conscious shifting of activities that more closely align with love centric existence. We have yet to create the intelligent tools and practices to realize this reality, but it is no longer an activist aspiration at the fringes.

UN IVERSAL

This loving life is available to us right now, if we so choose. Our civilization is waking up to the adulthood of abundance. It is time to walk upright and claim our prize. To feel genuine joy in the success of others, to give without expectation, to choose kindness over crime, to choose love over fear, we can achieve true bliss. A song is not a song until it is sung, love is not love until we give it away. Selshness to service is now both essential and practically accountable. We can un-manifest this version of reality to one that works for everyone on earth.
