EP 62 The System Decides What We See and Who We Become
Show Notes

"The Devil is in the Structure", and it is the structure, or the system, that provides a slanting floor and makes it easier for us to become, identify as, and live as agents for the system.

Systems ultimately lend us their eyes and we end up seeing the world through their perspective, losing other sight.  We talk about this in the context of the system of "Capitalism".

If this is so, what type of system or structure would we be interested in?  How would we like to see the world?

We mention that our current system is in the ending phase of self-termination.  To create one that may stand a chance to survive long-term and thrive, combining with our nature, we look to a system beyond separation, where all-win is the objective.

We briefly say state some of the core issues to be addressed. 

Thus the easier, and harder, path to becoming what you truly choose to become, based on your pure inspiration, is one where we start by living in a way that eventually creates a structure, or system, which allows us to envision the world as we truly wish to see it.

PS.  In this episode I also mention Marshall Rosenberg's "Nonviolent Communication".  I you feel inspired, I just recently put up an 8 week course on Udemy based on it, so that we may find ways of connecting deeply and in satisfying ways with others, despite the polarisations in  our society.
