In our naivety we believe that our fight against hierarchies excludes us from being part of the powers that reign us. Whatever side you choose, you are still very much part of the whole. And we actively contribute to those, even in our opposition to it. We want to maintain to current state, or we want to destroy them, eventually still leading to the creation of new hierarchies. New sore losers. New victims.
If we want to observe our systems, let us be very clear, and very honest.
Who is feeding you? Really? Is it the system you are fighting?Are you willing to give that up?
Or shall we be tyrants, imposing whatever our desires are, excluding the ‘others’ that do not fit our quest, and still being fed by the ‘devil’ we loathe?
Whatever your place is on the pyramid, you cannot escape it. Even the wise man that believes he is outside of the system, as a ‘self-outcasted’ observer and guide, still relies on his ‘followers’ or the system to take care of his material needs.
We are not separated. We are all included.
When we seek to fight against tyranny, we do it by using the same tools, tyranny uses.We seek power.
The very thing about power, is that it always requires a sacrifice. It always has a collateral side. We seek power. We want to elevate ourselves on top of a new pyramid, thinking it is all brand new. But we create new imbalances. We create new tyrannies.
Human history shows us over and over again that no matter how the new uprising is called. No matter what noble goal it has, it always ends up in new imbalances. There is always a loser in a fight. And the winner takes it all.
So are we going for power and accept the sacrifices they require, or should we seek for empowerment?
Am I going to rise alone, or shall I be inclusive to all life on Earth, well aware that this impossible task is inevitable to understand the endless loop?
