Question Is ... (CG48)

 

Cosmonomic Glimpse (48)

from a Viewpoint of Liberty

The Cosmonomic Manifesto characterizes very high and even futuristic standards of living in liberty and peace.

But there is not one single state, nation or society system on Earth that can reach these standards at present.

Please read the Cosmonomic Manifesto (again) and find out which countries on the globe, at least, are free enough to tolerate Cosmonomic life evolution.

This is the fundamental question for every really enlightened individual!

Take good care for yourself, wherever you are.

As A Free Man … Als ein freier Mensch

 

As a free man I take pride in the words: Ich habe das Recht auszuwählen, welche Bücher und Zeitungen ich lese, welche Rundfunk-, Fernseh- und Internetprogramme ich einschalte, ich habe das Recht auf meine eigene Meinung und diese demokratisch zu vertreten. Niemand hat das Recht, für mich eine Vorauswahl zu treffen.

Als ein freier Mensch bin ich stolz auf die Aussage: I have the right to choose which books and newspapers I am reading, which radio-, TV- and internet-programs I am switching on, I have the right for my own opinion and to struggle for it democratically. Nobody has the right to perform any pre-selections for me.

 

 

 

At Least (CG22)

 

Cosmonomic Glimpse (22)

from a Viewpoint of Liberty

As mankind keeps growing

humanity is flowing

away,

falling into decay.

Liberty seems to be out of date,

people create and elect their own dictatorship

which they love and, of course, hate

because they are led by disinformation

out of liberal self-consciousness into a strange constellation

of old religion, new pseudo-science and doomsday trip.

But fear

is no humane beginning

of a New Year.

No “Thousand-Year-Reich”

or any thousand-year long kingdom will ever

open any really civilized perspective

to human spirit

which is of individual classes

and not of indoctrinated masses.

Learning, while soberly thinking and honestly dealing,

no arbitrary play with statistics,

no getting lost in mystics

but keeping clear and trustful in mind and feeling.

These are cosmonomic intentions only.

May they encourage freedom and inner peace,

at least.

Take good care of yourself and your beloved ones.

End of War

Raymond Walden, Avignon - France, 2019

The eighth of May 1945:

War was over, so we are told,

but was it?

It was the year I did arrive,

soon I'll be 75

and, of course, I've considered it

all my life growing old.

Did you ever hear of a peace treaty, about its signing?

Can you mark one year after without war?

Proxy wars are stirred up by former victors till now, very undermining

and tormenting the world at many places as ever before.

Though I was born into this ruined Germany,

had to flee later from East to West,

where I experienced freedom and Human Rights' philosophy,

I've lived, for sure, in a democracy – one of its best!

So I feel grateful to all people in the world, where so ever,

who struggle for liberty, honesty and emancipation.

I would support no discrimination and warmongering, never!

I stand up for true humanity, solidarity and education.

But I recognize democracy worldwide is dying,

money, nationalism, weapons and violence are ruling instead,

preachers and ideologists are denying

what is going on in a real peace-loving head.

I feel free to honor all heroes of consequent liberty

and dedicate to them all – famous and unknown ones – 
my document of peace and dignity

by this Blog of Cosmonomic Philosophy.

May enlightenment improve

and prevent war by wisdom and empathy.

Where, otherwise, would we move

in this present pandemic agony?

Dreamers!

Did we ever have free democracy,

where and when?

Is the world having only the one severe problem:

Donald Trump?

Or are there many more “devils” to be named

nearly everywhere on “The Earth”?

Especially in “holy” landscapes, in “God's own countries”, in races mentalities

and otherwise absurd ideologies of martyring mankind?

Of course, not each of these evils is produced directly on-site,

but is imported by direct invaders

or is established by subtly camouflaged inner or/and outer origin.

No, my friends everywhere!

The world is in bad condition

because we all failed to face this truth

as we are not courageous enough to

stand for the dreams of liberty, equality and brotherhood,

as we are to patient being betrayed and misinformed,

as we do not learn from history,

as we are too convenient

and greedy as well

to recognize the powers behind the stages

that are ruling internationally pretending local welfare.

Yes, dear friends!

There must be dreams to verify them,

to put them in reality.

But we must know what we want!

Do you go with me?

We don't want “political correctness”, don't want diplomatic whitewash,

we don't want religious and pseudo-religious prophecy,

but we want humanity, like the world has never had before.

We want it right now!

“Contemporary Literary Horizon”, No 60

What a title for a literary magazine which is now edited for the 60^th time and, further more, is raising the claim: “ALL THE WORLD IN A JOURNAL”!

The claim is program because, started as a bilingual journal, long since a multilingualism resulted by the steadily growing number of authors which, from many countries of all continents, contribute to the success of this unique bimonthly periodical.

Poets, editors, essayists, philosophers, journalists, social critics, nature lovers and philanthropists are creating , in liberal independence, an exemplary project of cultural, international-global collaboration as it hardly turns out in world politics, unfortunately.

Initiator and spiritus rector is in Bucharest the Romanian writer, translator, editor and journalist, Daniel Dragomirescu. His untiring commitment, his publishing qualification and his overwhelming sociability, combined with his sharp analyses of political and historical circumstances, are motivation for many authors to look above the own horizon, not at least for their own confirmation.

This beacon “Orizont Literar Contemporan (Contemporary Literary Horizon , CLH) is coming from a Romania that Daniel Dragomirescu describes as follows:

“Dominated by political forces for whom real democracy did not matter at all, Romania remained at the periphery of the civilized world, with corrupt politicians, an economic development under its potential, a multitude of plagiarists that turned into ministers overnight … with palaces of hundreds of thousands euro and tens of thousands of socially assisted, with millions of people that are leaving or have already left the country in search of a better life.”

A shameful balance for a country that belongs to the European Union, but is let down by it.

This, for me personally, is also a reason to participate again and again as an author.

On the occasion of the anniversary edition No 60 I congratulate us all, writers as readers and especially Daniel Dragomirescu to whom I feel attached by friendly relationship and philosophically similar views.

He and “his” magazine give honor to liberal ethos, give the pleasure of independent art and they convey also sense to literary work for the benefit of nonviolence and peace in a world of painful turmoil.

Consciousness is Thinking and Feeling …

… 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.

Does the Islam Belong to Germany?

A started question of levity, not even the reason of this question will be evident, if a certain opportune actuality is neglected.

So what is Germany?

An apparently secular state? Far-reachingly involved in church and religion affairs? Although people without religion and church membership are representing the numerically strongest group?

Do liberal democratic principles really describe the German fundamental consciousness or does a more conservative and thoughtless society follow more or less accurately the state authorities into the capitalist growth with all its inhumane causes and effects?

Isn't a further conservative orientation, as the Islamic streams are propagating it, coming to an opportune moment to join the apparent ecumenical unity?

So what is Christianity in view of the countless splittings and different interpretations of the Bible?

And what is the Islam, tearing each other by interpretations of the Coran?

Where to are Islamic social orders leading? One may look at the states which are dominated by them!

After all some approaches of enlightenment were made possible by the softening of Christian stances which originally weren't of less cruelty. Of course, this enlightenment meanwhile is financed away by presentable agreements of the insatiable capitalism.

The question „Does the Islam Belong to Germany?“ seems to be quite ridiculous because the various Islamic manners are there in Germany, recently more often, but what is the meaning of „recently“? Once again, what is Germany at present, what was it earlier, how historically of short breath and changing?

The purpose is to create an enlightened liberal democratic humane European space for living in the future.

In trying this all religions have failed and they are on the point of even more afflicting derailment by the multiple use of new technologies.

Religious liberty is „freedom of option“, who would call it in question as it is existing.

The factual and inevitably amounting confrontations of religions are marking a typical temper of all those who feel chosen and are leading to disturbances of the public peace preventing further and higher humane development of zivilisation.

Being misinterpreted as „humane progress“ freedom of religion is implementing the paradox of religion and democracy into the public which means an absolute impossibility because of the exclusivity against each other. In other words: A wrong track to the future, even codified in constitutions. Simply because of their sometimes venerable ages these liberty manifestations, again and again praised as democratic examples, need a consequently secular revision.

The secular enlightened state doesn't follow any religious instructions like officially, for example, astrology doesn't possess any meaning.

No private religious view has the right for missioniring the public, even more it is the duty to integrate oneself in a secular and liberal-peaceful manner, or the logical consequence is possible, in case of religious stubbornness, to look for an adequate habitat out of enlightenment.

Increasing religious immigration, in Germany as in all other countries, is meaning sociopolitical step back by growing irrational conflicts and thus causing the weakening of secular achievments.
