Surprise goes Zen

Truth is back

Truth is back. It has a RENAISSANCE. 

More and more lies and deceits of the political, the economic and the social world come to surface.... the famous scandals ending with ...gate have become an almost normal event in these days. Climategate being one of them. So why not look to those men ad women who have tried to understand what truth is and how one can be a scientist, an artist, a philosopher or simply a human being and deal with it in the best way possible: 

Sir Karl Popper, the great Viennese philosopher who had to flee the Nazi regime and lived in the UK, was and is one great example. The question of truth was on his brilliant mind many a times. Here the interview when he was already in his high age in Greece - an example of wisdom and humility:

Wikileak - "leaking" inconvenient facts.....

....and new ideas how to protect the right to publish ........

Soul destiny

Every soul must be permitted to live its destiny. This is essential for our future:

It is the basic human struggle. The development from the animal to the human soul nature.

Our opportunity was and is to move to pure soul consciousness.  This way we are also discovering the pure social order.

Nations depend on the development of the individual´s  soul destiny.

If we deal soul to soul  we don´t need weapons. Only as long as we deal in political constructs, we have an endless stream of  political impossibilities: not enough food, water, resources....

Some evil personalities find pleasure in the disruption of soul destinies: If souls are perverted,  they turn frustrated and evil themselves.

Frustrated souls - in a sense of resentment - try to obtain power and make others pay! These psychotic  people want to dominate the natural unfolding of the purpose of the human life.

Organisations such as the UN have failed because it is based on political and not on spiritual structures........

To the degree churches have become political systems, we have lost faith in them. They need spiritual reform to take the weight from the political systems which cannot substitute spiritual content.

Tell the Truth!

Change the Thinker!

As a follow up to the World Economic Forum 2010:

Rethink Redesign Rebuild - 2

Rethink Redesign Rebuild is the slogan of this year's World Economic Forum in Davos end of January 2010.

It is a recurring theme on this site and we like to contribute to the idea although we are a bit sceptic due to the experiences as mentioned before.

The reason is: the people who have been at the helm of affairs so far have brought the world to this point. 

What makes them believe that they can change - Rethink Redesign Rebuild - the world with the same minds, the same hearts, the same attitudes?

It is not possible. It requires ENLIGHTENED THINKING of ENLIGHTENED men and women.

Rethink, redesign, rebuild and dare to go beyond

It is time to do more than rethinking, redesigning and rebuilding our life - it is about

enlightened choices based on the highest values mankind knows: love, beauty, wisdom,

righteousness, integrity, truth, loyalty....

In answer to the World Economic Forum 2008 we wrote a short text:

Download A New Symphony for the World

Life- rethought, redesigned and rebuilt

Mary Croft is a courageous and wise woman. Today I propose one of her 

articles which is so rich in content and experience that one really needs 

to take the time to read it. But it is worth the while! 

If the men and  women of the World Economic Forum in Davos will do just 

this? 

It would give them a fresh new start to really change the world for the 

better! 

Here is Mary Croft's article.

Rethink Redesign Rebuild

Rethink Redesign Rebuild is the slogan of this year's World Economic Forum

in Davos end of January 2010.

They state their purpose:

" Improving the state of the world requires catalysing global cooperation to address pressing challenges and future risks. Global cooperation in turn needs stakeholders from business, government, the media, science, religion, the arts and civil society to collaborate as a true community. To this end, the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting has engaged leaders from all walks of life to shape the global agenda at the start of the year for the last four decades."

The talk goes on and on  and while one should have an open mind and heart to give everyone the chance to express and to show what they can do - after a while - after four decades - one comes to the conclusion: these "kings" have no cloth. They talk the talk but are they walking the walk? The results speak by themselves and tell another story.

Why?  What is really going on? Let us try to give a simple - Zen perspective: They all are invested in the world - their world and they want to continue the game as is... that is why we see no results - no real results. None of them is really great and dares to step beyond the tacitly agreed behavior and paradigms. 

None of them is able to really move the world and its inhabitants in their hearts. They are not the ones who can initiate the great Renaissance which so many hope for and wait for. 

There was one who moves the hearts of men and women even today and who has an answer to the proposal of redesign::www.surprisegoeszen.com/2009/12/remake.html I posted it just a few days ago.

This line of thought will be continued......
