COMMUNITIES
Psychointegration Session 01/Feb/2007 By Jorge Raul Olguin
There are many issues to deal with. In the 60s, during the twentieth
century... There were many communities in New York, Hebrew, Chinese, African,
Italian, etc... The extent to which a person’s haughtiness or dominance,
controls the situation... A person who was in a higher place asked a favor to an
Italian immigrant under a threat of taking him back to his country. The Italian
immigrant responds the dialogue saying: "I have done so much good to America. On
the other hand, as a matter of respect, you would have to respect us, because we
all have something I have not noticed in others. Black people have their
community, Chinese people have their community, we Italians, have our community.
We help and we can help others, but we are family. What do you guys have? ". And
the American agent replies:- "Ah! We have America! And
you are here passing by it’s that simple ". That ended the argument. He ended
the debate because he had the power. Maybe this has nothing to do with what
comes next, right?
I respect communities a lot. Many people who have heard my previous
sessions will say: "but how? Isn’t true that the spirit is individual and at the
same time comes together as a spirit? And that spirit has no creed, no race, no
religion or bank account... how come you now support communities? ". I do not
support a community by the community itself. Neither do I support all
communities. I am interested in what they feel as a family and I care about what
the Italian person said. We are strong as a community because we are a big
family and we bolster each other. At the same time, once we are strong,
spiritually, economically, we help others.
There are other worlds, for many of you they will be imaginary
worlds, those who do not believe in other worlds, where the communion lies in
the entire planet. They support each other and they compete to see who gives
more. Not like in this world where many people compete to see who takes over the
other. Then it’s not bad to support a community, not bad to feel empathetic to
such communities. Obviously the ideal thing would be to have a global community,
but there is a long way ahead for that to happen... Not because of political
disagreements, although there are many, but due to religious differences.
Differences of concepts. We know that in some Eastern countries, unfortunately,
they take religion to an extent that it contradicts the teachings of its
masters, waging war on religion. The less serious cases are the famous rituals
of some religious groups in certain countries where I have seen pictures of
young children who flog themselves. There are more severe cases in which there
are children who are trained to kill themselves, and they are treated as
valuable people if during their attack they carry away to the spiritual world
dozens of other people from other creeds.
Obviously that there will never be a general community, as long as
there are small extremist groups that are unsympathetic to what the true
spirituality really is. Groups that instead of helping each other, they cripple
the other's hand. Groups that take as something normal the abuse to other
groups. Groups that take as something normal to
invalidate other people. Even in countries that you all know as “civilized” it
happens exactly the same thing but with more subtle ways. They also invalidate
others, they reach positions of power when they have no
preparation... But do not misunderstand me! Here we are not talking about
discrimination to those who have not been prepared.
If you had a little boy, you would want to have a well prepared
teacher to teach him, not a teenager who just have a couple of courses more than
the younger one, because he does not teach anything. So in those positions of
power, I dislike this phrase, I understand that they should be occupied by
people who are prepared, not only culturally but also spiritually. Because
someone who is running a country, a city, a corporative center, the least he has to have is preparation of conscience first.
I see that as something more important than cultural preparation. However, if
somehow due to abuse of power or arrangements, they put in control a sinister
character who all that wants is to seek his own benefit, obviously every time
the idea of a general community is even farther away. It’s far because there
are many vested interests that these communities are not formed. That’s why I
gave the example at the beginning of this little dialogue about the American
agent trying to subdue, in a way, the Italian immigrant who had created a small
community.
-We have a community! You guys what you have?
-
Ha ha ha! We have America!
I think that the patriot is not only the one who loves his country,
but I think that the patriot is someone who loves the people who live in his
country as well. And I speak about patriotism in the transitional sense, because
our country should be our planet Earth, Sun 3, or whatever you want to call it
Gaia, Mother Earth etc... This is our homeland. Yesterday I found a beautiful
scenario, a world without borders, without religions, where the spiritual path
is one without dogmas or doctrines. That is what is being proposed at this time.
Until this happens, this famous change announced from two decades ago, is not
going to happen. There will be small isolated groups; they will proclaim that
change of consciousness and nothing else. I'm optimistic, but I'm
realistic.
In Misiones, a province of Argentina, I was reading in the newspaper
that they are allowing vested interests, illegal hunting. All hunting should be
illegal! And at this time in a province of Argentina, there are just 50
(Jaguars). 50! Nothing! As I said a moment ago, the time will come when a
(jaguar) is going to be found in a museum and that’s a tremendous
shame.
I repeat what I said before. The spirit has no communities. In the
higher planes of Light the Spirits are all together, with a single thought,
which is Love And Service. However, it’s not bad to start from small things.
That these communities do not become in selfish structures, structures that
think only about to feed themselves, but to think about
others. In that way a human being transcends, thinking about others; that these
communities transcend thinking about other communities. And so one after
another. And to form a domino effect. Love, love and
love!
Let’s stop separatism. Stop selfishness! No more indifference! No
more buts! Because some buts often invalidate people. When I suddenly say, "I
have an appointment with you at 17:00, but I may be late because the bus is
delayed," I am giving an explanation of why I can be late a few minutes. But
there are many egotistical BUTS that invalidate. Let's avoid the ‘but.’ Avoid
trying to own the truth. Avoid, if possible, from the bottom of our hearts,
trying to excel invalidating others. It seems perfect that every day we try to
create, but once I said 13 years ago that we cannot build a golden castle with a
foundation made of clay. We cannot be happy at the expense of the misery of
others. I couldn’t be. Could you?
