About Democracy




What exactly is Democracy? A system of government by the whole population or all the eligible members of a state, typically through elected representatives.The very word Democracy originates from the Greek word δημοκρατία "rule of the people",which was coined from δῆμος "people" and κράτος, "power" or "rule" in the 5th century BCE in Athens , to indicate a form of liberal and direct political system, in which every  free citizen was obliged to participate an vote in the city council on every matter concerning the public affairs.

Some say that this is not actually a democracy as for the fact that only the free and rich could take the above decisions and the poor was used as slaves,deprived of every political right.This is actually a matter of a grater debate as if we consider our modern term of democracy we will find some shocking resemblances to the ancient world. The declaration of Independence and the birth of the ideally democratic and liberal state,the united states, was written and founded on slavery but this should be a totally different subject.  

The thing is that we all should pause momentarily this frenetic capitalistic consumerism and realize what exactly we have sacrificed in the altar of the so called free market.What is the democracy we actually live in today?

The only aspect of the democratic system that we will actually experience is the right to vote a certain representative. Other than that,we have no real part in every what so ever decision making.And who do we vote?Our right to choose in only between the aristocracy,career politicians with multi million portfolios.Does actually somebody know how much money it's required for someone to candidate in the presidential election?And if someone outside the system is elected?The solution is very simple,he becomes part of it,he is consumed and nothing changes.

What is the problem with all this rotten political status?Capitalism is alimented, and capitalism brings huge growth and wealth ,so it's actually a good thing but not for us.It is a global scam to render every free human being into an economic slave,as the ones in ancient Greece.And the funny thing is that as then, also now the system promises you your freedom.Work hard and maybe you will be one of us, free ,rich and a decision maker.So if we all are working so hard to be like this,what are we exactly now ?

And bringing wealth to international corporations is one thing ,melting every social ,political and ethical value of modern western states is an other.

Italy,one of the pillars of European economy has no had an elected government in years.Actually there have been three different prime ministers,with their own people who took over every decision making on behave of the Italian people without ever been elected by no one.Is this democracy?

Greece has been the playground for the economic elite on how much a nation can economically suffer and the experiment is still going on, trying to find the breaking point.All Greeks chose to suffer? It actually strikes me as a democratic paradox. 

The their is the war for democracy,invading foreign countries ,killing and installing the same non-democracy only to amplify profits,which is ridiculous.

So if we really could open our eyes ,see and understand what is really happening in front of us, we would be appalled, because their is no ethical system throughout the world that could support this pseudo-moralized non democracy.We have a world wide political system that must be revisited or it will collapse on it self.

A crazy little thing called love

And God said, Let us make man in our image after our likeness,so God created man in his own image.Then the LORD God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him.He took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh at that place and fashioned it into a woman and brought her to the man.
So if we are created for each other, a man for a woman and vice versa by a superior being which designed us in perfection why everything is so messed up between us?Did we evolved in a state of social incompatibility or are we missing a piece of the puzzle?
If you thing that the relationship between men and women is complex now days just wait to hear about Lilith.She was Adam's first wife(as referred in Jewish Mythology,in the Babylonian Talmud and from the same sources the bible comes from) .Yes you have read it correctly.She was created with the same soil as Adam,at the same time and way before Eve. Lilith left Adam after she refused to become subservient to him and then would not return to the Garden of Eden after she mated with archangel Samael.Sounds familiar?
So the first documented human relationship ends up in a divorce.
We now know,from a scientific point of view that love is an articulated mechanism designed by nature,involving human hormones, neurotransmitters and subconscious archetypes to help us mate and procreate for the continuous of the human species.We are love junkies.But eventually the effect wears off and usually we land in a reality that's far from our understanding of happiness.
So we have a design flaw(if you believe in creationism) and a functional one also(if you believe in evolution).Either way they both converge in a social first of an absurd explosion in divorces,alternative couples (gay and lesbian) and decrease in family sizes.
You tend to notice this strange effect in the most evolved parts of the global society.The more evolved we are, the greater becomes this man-woman incompatibility.So what's going on?
We live in strange times.It is easier today to buy a nanoscale superconductor which can compute one trillion instructions per second than find someone to love of to be loved.This is nothing less than a small demonstration of the enormous scale of our social and cultural handicapacity.Yes we are more advanced today in technology but we fell far behind in ethics and values,in personal and social culture ,we are living by poisoned principles.We are evolving in the wrong direction.
So is there eventually a crazy little thing called love.Yes there is and it is becoming one of the most rarest feeling to find and hold on.People just get together because they are afraid or they do not want to be alone,or because they are just used to live with someone ,so they continue to do so.When all these problems associated with everyday life in the end catch up,some people explode.Others get depressed or just unhappy.Remember that you will be in love only for one short period of time,then everything wears of.To love is to have a genuine need to share your life,or moments of it with a person that can be your best friend and something more.The person that will accept you for what you are,that will be willing to give and take,share,unify and create.But to find such a person you have to have ethics and values and he or she must share the same values with you.And you will be with this special one because you want to and not because you have to or told to.
We are stressed and depressed by a irrational consuming life that is eventually consuming us.Be modest and live with only what you really need.Use your experience to rehab from the hormonal love and try to see the person you have in front of you.Don't let the circumstances get a hold ,your happiness is unique and only you can make a choice.Adam did and lived a difficult life ,but at least with someone on his side my creationist friends.Your body needs the rhythmical release of hormones and neurotransmitters associated with living with the same partner,my evolutionary ones.Money,power,wealth and health mean nothing without this crazy little thing called love .Will you ever find it?I sincerely hope so.

The 'get rich' myth

Go on,get rich,by and accumulate all the material goods you will ever need.A mansion with a pool,a summer estate,expensive cars and objects.Eventually you will find yourself depressed,or addicted to alcohol or other substances or experimenting the ultimate extreme sport and adventure trying to get yourself killed.In the end if the above does not kill then boredom will.
Do you think i'm exaggerating?
We humans are made up from three dimensional ''bricks'' called molecules and we live in an three dimension world.So we are part of a micro-cosmos that forms us and we as a whole,at least what we understand as a human being ,we are also a part of a macrocosmos that eventually builds up the universe.As we well now both this worlds are dominated by the strict laws of nature,the mind of god.So it is very easy to conclude that we also as human beings are dominated by certain laws of nature.Does anybody know them?
Actually first of all ,the ancient Greeks addressed the matter and discovered the cosmic rules by which the 'one'thus universe as we understand it now works.These cosmic rules where given after a great deal of preparation to the spiritually mature part of the Greek society through the ''mysteries''. I'm am not going to disclosure them because in the thousand of years of the existence of these mysteries,no one did,as it is a crime punishable by death and i would not like to break this long tradition.
I have the authority though to tell you just one.The principle of the necessity.Everything in the universe occurs not randomly but to serve a certain necessity.Sometimes things seem to us futile but in the end as we elaborate and think we will discover the ''hidden'' cause.
So what does all the mysteries and cosmic rules and ancient Greeks have to do with getting rich?Sometime in the distant past,lost in the ages all the wise men of ancient Greece elected the smartest and most important philosophers of them all.They gathered at the sacred place of Delphi to try and concentrate all of the words wisdom in just a few quotes and by this way create an ideology that could save the spiritually empty.These quotes were ''Γνωθι σ'εαυτον'' and ''Μηδέν Άγαν'' which mean know thyself (always try to discover yourself) and nothing in excess.
You are a little bit lost right?So let's see.Everything in life( human life included) occurs by certain natural laws (as god made them)following a necessity.In this life we have to try to get to know ourselves in every way and live our life with nothing on excess.So do i have to get rich?
If you stretch yourlife in only one direction you will get the opposite effect.By accumulating more than you need and living a life with the only goal only to accumulate more ,not only you go against nature and it's laws but you also forget the reason and the right way of living.Then you instantly ,although you have a lot of nice things to loose,you eliminate the necessity of your existence.
If you want to be rich do not add wealth but try to contain your desires.Spread these words and dedicate five minutes of your day to think about your life.Do not adopt other people thoughts,make your own, understand and HAVE an opinion.This is the only way to be free.

The meaning of life

Many have wondered but only a few in the end knew.The meaning of life is the vicissitude from a unconscious perfection to a conscious imperfection  and from there an ascension to a conscious perfection.As simple as it sounds,although you will probably read the same sentence more than one to understand it,this is the basic guideline.
The beginning,the intermediate and final goals are the same for everyone.What differs is the different path that each one of us has to take.The purpose of the different path is that we are different people,with different believes and judgement ,but although we joy from a relatively freedom of choice,the benchmarks are always the same.
So do we all succeed in this strange goal?Eventually everybody realizes that nothing lasts for ever and everything that we do and produce is only temporally.Others,in their course of life gain the cultural and spiritual maturity to understand it in advance,so they live a ''better'' life.
So,no matter what we do,where we're from and were we're going we all have something in common,as human beings,the awareness and consciousness that eventually everything comes to an end.No matter what you culture or religion you believe in,it is always the same.
But it seems to me that with the modern way of life we have not only forgotten the meaning of our life,but we lay unaware of it.Where does everything we do everyday  lead us?Only to an unhappy and stressful life of accumulating material objects that can only temporally give us a fake sensation of joy,because eventually everything wears out.Not only this,but also to the abolition of ethics.Because we,as a society are ready to to everything in order to gain and maintain a profit,that will provide us with more material objects, which are never enough.
Money is irrelevant?Of course not!Money does not provide happiness but it gives you the possibility to choose your unhappiness someone once said.The truth is that money can only provide for the essential,a peaceful and comfortable way of life,but a surplus of money can never provide you with more happiness.
So do everything in your power to spread these words,to everyone you know,e-mail them,text,post and share and let them understand the power of ethics.Support our goal to educate a society that breaths and lives  to produce smarter,more capable and most conscious individuals which is our only way out of this devastating consumption madness.The is still hope that the day will come.
