Keeping Up America`s Reputation in the World

"Reality exists when illusions are shattered. It's time to reach a state of untainted decency that America can be proud of. The trends I listed are well known. They are causing a deterioration of trust and social justice. No one can reverse these trends except us." 
Deepak Chopra, Special to SFGate

Imagine, no change in our mathematical grasp of reality, but a huge change

in our world view, perspective, interpretation of Reality; removing the limits

of our narrow, limited, “flat world” view of space and time and energy; 

opening the doors to evolutionary possibilities not even imagined. Makes

one wonder, WHO is choosing the current state of the world in 21st century science.

Keeping Up America`s Reputation in the World
Category: SF Gate
Deepak Chopra, Chopra, MD is the author of more than 70 books with twenty-one New York Times bestsellers and co-author with Rudolph Tanzi of Super Brain: Unleashing the Explosive Power of Your Mind to Maximize Health, Happiness, and Spiritual Well-being. (Harmony)

Every country has a national character that it taught to children from a young age and then becomes part of everyone's story. In the case of America, "opportunity" is a theme known worldwide and constantly referred to when we talk about what this country means. In the same category are freedom, power, innovation - and decency. We look upon ourselves as the good guys, and we expect to be seen that way by others.

Analysts warn us that American opportunity is flagging, especially if you are poor and want to rise up the ladder. Innovation is being challenged by the Chinese, and most developed countries are just as free as America. And decency? It took a huge blow with the military adventurism of the Iraq War, a war of choice that destroyed Iraqi society, increased tensions throughout the region, strengthened Iran, and ultimately turned into a Vietnam-style quagmire, as the Afghanistan War is right now.

As a result, large swaths of the world disapprove of America, making it harder for us to cling to our self-regard as generous, charitable, moral, and decent people. Perhaps this was inevitable after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Being the only super power makes us suspect. Other nations project their vulnerability as if the U.S. caused it - look at the ultra-paranoid North Korea, whose national story consists of armed preparedness for imminent assault by American devils.

It's hard to be the good guys when you are also the world's biggest arms dealer and spend more money on defense than the next fifteen nations combined. But I think there's a deeper ambivalence about decency in this country. In a decent society, do the following things happen?

- Politics is rancorous and divisive, with each side demonizing the other.

- In political races, the object is not simply to defeat your opponent but to destroy him?

- Gun violence is rampant, and attempts to counter it can destroy a politician's career.

- The financial sector operates sheerly out of greed and takes no responsibility when its actions lead to economic collapse.

- Corporations abandon health care and pensions for their workers.

- The richest become richer while the poor become poorer.

Each of these bullet points represents a trend, and the trends aren't in the direction of decency. The rest of the world is appalled by things we take for granted, like the existence of 300 million assault-style weapons in private hands. What's more appalling is the lack of morality shown when a gun-happy minority leads the rest of society around by the nose. The most heartbreaking thing about the Iraq war was to see how decent and trusting our soldiers were, how much they cared about helping the Iraqi people, and yet how horrifying the circumstances they landed in.

Reality exists when illusions are shattered. It's time to reach a state of untainted decency that America can be proud of. The trends I listed are well known. They are causing a deterioration of trust and social justice. No one can reverse these trends except us. Who will speak up for this? Our leaders are tentative and intimidated, a sure sign that decency has lost its hold.

THERE IS A BETTER WAY

The motion to dissolve the darkness of ignorance and limitation

From Belief to Knowing to Implementation

Expanding the box, the window to Reality is a Survival Requirement in both Physics and Economics - the New Models are in progress

Holding on to anything is like holding on to your breath. You will suffocate. The only way to get anything in the physical universe is by letting go of it. Let go & it will be yours forever. - Deepak Chopra

Richard Gerber, in his Vibrational Medicine, perhaps still expresses the most encyclopedic volume of scientific facts relating to the necessity of expanding our boundaries for survival. The flat earth concept did not end with round world. Issac Newton’s principles to Einstein’s relativity and quantum mechanics did not end with the miniscule grasp of relativity and E=MC2. The full local to global view of Reality, a point of view to a viewing point, has not yet entered its infancy stage.

The necessity of a “the radius of curvature” delineating our perception and application of reality, specifically as the degree of energy, space, time, and size differentials vary significantly (as in flat earth), have their corollaries  in our misperception of economics, the economies of scale – as will be pointed out - Especially to the fact that EVERYTHING REQUIRED TO SUSTAIN LIFE WORLDWIDE cannot be owned by a few, to do as they please, unregulated, creating their own laws, given personhood with no “ten commandments”, flourishing year after year with record breaking infinity of profits and wealth, ………..as seven billion people worldwide slowly strangle economically.
 

 

As the full scope of E=MC2 moves toward the application of the Promise of Energy for Everyone  http://possiblefuturesfilmcontest.org/film_24402363 ..........

 The promise, of a future foretold a half century ago for today: Appleby's world, "a world where he never had to pay a power bill, where heating and cooling were free of energy costs, where his water was pure and veggies local and fresh, and where a four hour work day allowed him ample spare time to indulge in his writing fantasies. Outside, the air was fresh and the streets clean. Everyone had a job, and in this world-the real world-there were no clandestine powers holding back progress. All received a fair share for their efforts" An Impossible World? Excerpt from The Energy Solution Revolution by Brian O'Leary http://freedomtimes.blogspot.com/2009/04/impossible-world.html

……..we will begin to understand Deekak Chopra, M.D. (1989), who wrote in Quantum Healing, "There is no more beautiful experience than when the world expands beyond its accustomed limits. These are moments when reality takes on splendor." This expansion beyond our accustomed limits is profoundly surmised by Dr. Wayne Dyer, number three on the world’s top 100 spiritual leaders today in the following video presenting our contemporary understanding of the spiritual nature of life, consistent with the cutting edge findings of our biological, physical and mental sciences.

I might add on the subject of belief, aside from personal experience, taking the concept of BELIEF from HOPING to KNOWING, can be overwhelmingly attained, in the twinkling of an eye, with the expanded version of E=MC2, overriding our currently shallow concept of ENERGY that is causing the ever-tightening chokehold, limitation, constriction and control on our future.

Releasing and promoting advanced science facts and application in energy evolution, opening the doors to unlimited potential, sustainability, and prosperity for all, can certainly assist “believing” in Dr. Wayne Dyer’s presentation.

The motion to dissolve the darkness of

ignorance and limitation

The contemporary, dangling puppets on a string “freedom” concept, will enlarge to a greater concept of freedom, as the light shines further into the darkness of ignorance, revealing ever greater knowledge, perception, wisdom and understanding of our evolutionary nature.  

Eliade (1957) in The Sacred and Profane refers to a desacralized society as devoid of meaning, purpose, possessing nothing to guide humanities attitudes and actions. Where events, work, economics are justified only by pleasure and profit, where cyclic time becomes terrifying and the view of existence a pessimistic struggle and a desperate clinging, grasping, searching for the ultimate trivia in the search for identity, Ignoring the slow agonizing deaths of billions of men, women and children stemming from starvation, poverty, disease, malnutrition, war, pollution, lack of medical, sanitation, water, with constant depreciation of wages and benefits, retirement reaching toward 100 years of age, in the 21st Century - caused by a diseased, out of control, dinosaur-like economic gambling system, perpetuating scientific stagnation in energy innovation and awareness of the basic tenets, criterions, necessary for evolutionary survival and sustainability.

 The current tiny E=MC2 box of understanding does not fit in our 21st century science and will continue to promote more and more conservation, limitation, with lethal and unbalanced biological and ecological system reactions, as our world population exponentially explodes in numbers..

Limitation and Conservation of the infinite defies common sense, intelligence, wisdom and understanding.

As we observe and experience the miracles of nature, as in a tiny, lightweight tree seed designed to hug the ground in winds of over 200 mi/hr, it becomes clear that this “intelligent, (some call it non intelligent chance occurrence”) creation in process, would not create a species designed to choke all life.

Since the limitation is not in the structure of the brain, ………….. we will allow the reader to conclude the factors repetitiously causing the “rise & fall” of civilizations.

Emmy award-winning filmmakers Joe and Harry Gantz are releasing a documentary called "American Winter: A Documentary About a Country In Search of Its Promise." The film focuses on the personal stories of families in Portland, OR who are feeling the immensely crushing weight of the 2008 economic collapse. Many of these families never thought they'd be in the dire situation in which they find themselves
