… pursuant
to the awareness which is subject to inner deceptions as well as to
external manipulations.
Being
aware of this, you may aim for objectivity and may certainly reach a
remarkable approach to reality. In doing so, time is generating a
valuable resource of experience which is offering the necessary
distance for keeping track. Sovereign distance is the result of
specialist and common knowledge and of rested composure, enabling to
a directed and unexcited engagement.
A
prerequisite for this is honesty and truthfulness towards oneself and
towards the fellow men.
Consciousness
without such a moral reduces itself to a stressful vegetating and,
not seldom, also to a hollow sense of self-esteem, even to rigorous
obsession with power.
When
we look closely at the behaviors of certain politicians, regardless
of their doubtful contents of speech, their tortured mental states
virtually become clear, ever hunted by an evil opposition, even
within their own ranks.
What
kind of consciousness is grafted onto entire nations by dictatorial
systems under such circumstances?
Which
consciousness enables political judges to pass their arbitrary
judgments? Which consciousness is driving army drill instructors,
which the torturers, and which the executioners?
Do
the soldiers' cheerful songs, when sent into World War I, have
anything to do with consciousness or do they just prove the
significant fact of epidemic errors?
Aren't
nationalism and racism ineradicable plagues of a brain deformation,
far away from consciousness?
Normally
the healthy human is in awareness, of course, but in the case of
indoctrination and ignorance, it is just reduced to the “being
alive”: No backgrounds, no dissenting individuality, no development
nor perspectives. The human consciousness does not represent a basic
value, not even a typical unique human characteristic, rather a
parameter of different intelligence and education, of cultural
maturity and humanity. The life, being in accord with the actual
reality, using the natural options for a cultivated optimization of
life, is forming the basis of a dignified consciousness contradicting
all the practiced orders of faith and forces of opinion.
Consciousness
requires vital care, permanent comparison, updates under full reserve
to historical reference.
The
so-called liberal democratic society, in particular, is to be valued
by this, and above all, it has to recognize its own deficits, which
is evident for a humane consciousness and an adequate planning and
acting possibly worldwide.
In
other words: Cosmonomic life understanding.
