Knowledge is human right
Basic education is now slowly reaching all people across the world even though too many are still deprived. More dramatic is the situation of access to higher levels of education. These are only available to those who can afford it. This is changing with a growing number of internet initiatives. About time!
The state of awareness of humankind through knowledge accumulation via scientific research and common social reflective evolution should not be registered as property of a single person or institution, nor should it be economized for the highest bidders only. This causes an unnatural and manipulated selection of wisdom connected to greed and speculation while intelligence resident in material poverty remains unused in human evolutionary progress. This unbalance can be the cause of future unrest and potential war due to inequality in perceiving the world’s complexities, rightful claims for universal justice and mere quests for survival.
All knowledge should hence be available to every single human being in the world and universe, not just in a sense of practical availability but also in a workable reflective format throughout living life, with support and guidance of the top intellectuals at any time. Internet is such means that can be used to establish such accessibility. However not all people in the world have access to the electronics needed to make use of it. And if they do there needs to be an unmanipulated access to as many sources of information as available, structured along worldviews and paradigms that help people make up their own mind around sustainable progress, not just through personal trial and error but also by allowing the positioning of their search along the line of consciousness towards higher awareness.
Knowledge may become then nearly free of charge but should never be freed of progressive responsibility. People are always challenged to make practical use the knowledge obtained in their lives and reflect back for forward progression. Rationalization into awareness and consciousness only occurs when situations are lived through emotionally in real and simulated life (ie. through sport, games, etc). It are the multiple types of emotions that trigger the cognitive processes that can be enhanced with knowledgeable guidance breaking though eventually into the fifth dimension of higher awareness. Every living soul on Earth should have such life long learning environment.
The world would gain support for world peace and human progress, jumping into a new era of cooperative interaction based on talent. Wisdom as a human evolutionary right will make a difference that is unprecedented in history. It is made possible thanks to the state of educational progress today, initiated and manipulated in origin by pure material interests (educating people for simple work in factories). Now that this period is left behind us with all the obvious benefits it brought humankind, its time for a new step. Letting go of this phase of “having” we enter a new one, in which spirituality “the being” is a new science to be explored, not from a dogmatic religous point of view (which is also based on the manipulation of the unaware), but by giving true meaning to our existance through higher levels of individual awareness, interconnected to create a new kind of collective consciousness and related social progressive complexities.
Our cyclic learning shows an upward spiral under the right circumstances
Sustainocracy is a pioneers phase of such type of society where multidisciplinary cooperative ventures need to be built around commonly available scientific and spiritual wisdom to succeed. It provides a transformative challenge to us all, individually and institutionally where it is in the interest of all that no one is excluded. A new society is born based on “the being” with talent developing progressively through forward reflection and instant educational guidance.
Education is one of the four pillars of sustainable human progress
The STIR foundation wants to be a transformative portal to this new world, making knowledge available to everyone, everwhere, not just in theory yet also opening sustainocratic processes up for everyone’s involvement and reciprocity. Also those that share their knowledge should receive reciprocal means back that cover and go beyond food and shelter. New exciting discoveries for scientific challenges will be picked up along the line of progress and executed in new research programs. We will partner up with all the world initiatives that think alike, that offer network capacity, access or knowledge to be shared. Humankind is ready for this quantum leap. We are too.
The fifth dimension
When we refer to dimensions we can easily recognize the first three. The first dimension is a line between A and B. The second is perpendicular to the first referring to both as length and width, a flat space, like a drawing or piece of text on the screen. The floor on which we walk also. The third dimension adds depth to the picture. We have two eyes to be able to create 3D awareness with our brain.
We consider ourselves as beings that observe our surroundings in three dimensions. Length, width and depth. A pilot in an aircraft or helicopter has the complexity of dealing with this when trying to land. Our ears manage our equilibrium when we do the complex task of walking upright and balanced, a difficulty that has upset many engineers when trying to create a humanlike robot walking upright like us.
4th dimension?
What would be the fourth dimension? The mathematical logic of the existence of dimensions 1, 2 and 3 suggests that there would be a 4th and a 5th and more, just like our numbers. But what are they?
Some people look at geometrical continuation of the first three, using angles of 90 degrees to intersect with the previous ones. If you can draw a 3 dimensional cube on a 2 dimensional piece of paper then you can do the same with 4 dimensions in a 3 dimensional space. It is fun to see graphical artists and computers make wonderful figures out of this theory. It is suggested that we can even get a notion of the fourth dimension when it interacts with the first three. We imagine this when we consider a two dimensional space interact with a three dimensional object, just like a scanner that shows vertical slices of a body in a sequence. Visualizing the entire fourth dimension goes however beyond our perceptive reality people say. But is that true?
Time:
Another theory is that the fourth dimension is “time”. This makes sense because we seem to perceive the three dimensional images in sequences, just like a movie, memorizing the events chronologically. The only snag is that we perceive time within the confinement of our planet Earth in our solar system, using day and night of this revolving planet turning around the sun. This limitation would make the dimension only specific to our planet Earth while the others are universal. Einstein did an attempt to define time universally in space. We could also use the Big Bang as a point of reference for that matter. Still it is difficult to universally use “time” as a concept of universal perception unless we refer to it from a spatial understanding and hence it cannot easily represent the fourth dimension.
Death:
Other people refer to the fourth dimension as the spiritual state before birth and after death, a kind of intermediate stage between our carnal three dimensional life and full spiritual existence after this pulgatory. God is often refered to as the 10th dimension with underneath a hierarchy of spiritual levels that at an early stage use the carnal life for spiritual learning purposes. Positioning God at such high dimensional level would suggest that we have to search our dimension not in the physical space of materials or chronological sequences but in levels of consciousness. A type of universal wisdom in layers of perception and awareness.
This would suggest the existance of parallel universes as also suggested by those who find evidence of a fourth dimension in magnetism. If we observe the amount of two dimensional objects within a three dimensional space we see that many do not even coincide. There are infinite ways of coinciding and non coinciding posibilities. They hence are not aware of their parallel existence unless a new dimension is added. Why couldn’t there be infite numbers of three dimensional parallel universes within the fourth dimension?
Fifth dimension:
I leave this fourth dimension for you to figure out and would like to propose a reality for the fifth dimension. This one I call our “higher awareness”, a state of mind where we break loose from our animal evolution of awareness and origins and become fully aware of our selves as human beings, a spiritual being living carnal experiences. This state of higher awareness has been first described for the first time in the 40’s of the previous century.
It makes sense when we consider the other dimensions to be levels of perception of things. When we live through enough chronological events in one (or more, if we believe in the pulgatory and reincarnation) lifetime we may reach a state of reflection about life, evolution, the universe and our consciousness that goes a step beyond the mere observation of things in 3D and rationalization of events for survival and procreation only.
The higher conscience is an unique experience in which the human being looses fear for shortages and even death, learning to see itself and the entire existence from an eternal perspective. Such person enjoys a state of happiness without expecting anything, a state of having it all without possessing anything, a state of permanent satisfaction and yet an urge to make the best of the carnal life. To me that is the fifth dimension into which I personally broke through myself for the first time in 1996 but fell back into the fourth again. It was surprisingly fearful for me to let go of fear. In 2003 I broke through again and this time I stayed. I see life and the human being in a totally different way now and also behave and reflect differently.
Evolution:
These dimensions of perception also represent an evolutionary process that has not yet been studied scientifically. Science tends to study our material environment in great detail but not our energetic reality, awareness, spirituality or consciousness in different levels. Some scientists claim that awareness is just a trick that our brain plays on us. Indeed this is true when we use our two eyes to produce a 3D reflection of reality. We only perceive reality when we develop a level of reflective experience. We can then trick ourselves by observing our surroundings in a particular way. We can’t be sure that what we see really is what we think it is. It is all a matter of interpretation against a set of mental assumptions that we individually make with 3D perception. 4D hence is the level of curiosity to add perspective to varify that what we perceive is actually what it really is. In that sense time, death, magnetism, space, etc are all instruments for 4th dimensional awareness development. They are ALL the 4th dimension (length, width, depth and intelligent, interactive space in perceptive awareness).
It is not uncommon that we get into situations of individual and collective crises in our fourth dimension of searching for the universal truth while often sticking to the material 3D perceived “security” of survival rather than developing a conscious 4D reflective and interactive life with space.
When one breaks through into the higher conscience, say the fifth dimension, the misterious fourth dimension, including the erratic, often disputable behavior of human beings, suddenly makes sense. 4D represents our self-consciousness, the confusion we live with when we live a conscious learning life, asking ourselves all kinds of existential questions. The fourth dimension is a learning process of perception that goes beyond the physical bounderies of materialism. We gradually discover time, spirituality, parallel universes and how to deal with the letting go process, including carnal death and fear. The fourth dimension is the search phase that ends when we break through, open our inner extra “eyes” and suddenly “understand”. Then we have reached what some call the inner illumination, the fifth level of awareness. We live life in 5D.
The question that then arises is: “has the fifth dimension always existed in the universe, waiting for some species to break through? Or is this some evolutionary step that humankind adds to the universe?” In other words, is the universe conscious or unconscious, or is just humankind becoming conscious, making the universe conscious through us for the first time? The answer would suggest that the universe itself is alive not just “life within a dead universe”.
The fact that we, human beings, are capable of reaching the fifth dimension suggests that it has always existed. This brings everything into perspective, even the big bang theory and that what “is” is. It also brings back our God belief suggesting that the comfort of 5D is the beginning of even a larger quest up to 10D. Can we become God? Or are we already God but need to learn to perceive it by reaching 10D?
Another question arises in the 3D and 4D world. Can we live and organize ourselves in a carnal way using this fifth dimension of awareness as an extra establishment or guidance in our society? Would that help us solve the human issues of crises produced by the limitations of the fourth dimension? Can we educate people towards the fifth dimension and produce world peace that way? In my STIR foundation we make an attempt because I believe that we have reached a point in time that many people are breaking through and others just need a little help as they are so close. I also believe that sustainocracy is a way to organize society from a 5D perspective.
Could we expand our universal horizons from a higher level of consciousness? Is the fifth dimension confined just to us or can other species break through too? The latter is why we partner up with our surrounding in sustainocracy and start reasoning from the Whole (5D) instead of fragmented parts (3D).
I am curious about your reflection on the subject.
Is humankind a natural disaster?
When we refer to a natural disaster we think of the destructive force of nature that affects life in a region (or even globally) tremendously. The famous meteorite that struck the Earth some 60 millions years ago somewhere in Mexico was such natural disaster. It caused such impact that all life forms larger than a mouse died as a consequence of the long term darkness, climate change, etc. It was the stroke of death for the dominant species of giant reptiles s.a. the dinosaurs and happened long before humankind appeared to do its thing. A tsunami, an earth quack, a massive storm, floods, a huge fire, a volcano erupting or even a combination of all, they can all be devastating for life and all fall in the category of natural disasters.
Can we call then humankind a natural disaster? In our behavior we destroy the habitat of other species, even cause them to go extinct for our own benefit. We destroy the landscape with roads, houses, cities, fields, etc. We pollute the soil, the air, the sea…. Does that make us a natural disaster? No, strangely it does not. Ants, beavers, cows, rats, whatever other species, also usage the landscape and environment for their benefit and if they have no natural enemies they grow in volume and destructive effects on the habitat of other species. We know by observation and experience that such effects eventually destroy their own long term survival.
Humankind is hence currently a normal natural parasite of the available resources that has out grown its own sustainable proportions in population and greed, reaching a point of becoming auto-destructive. It is as simple as that and can be seen around us all the time. A large tree for instance does not allow enough light to pass through its crown for other plants to grow underneath it. In this way it avoids that these would take resources from the soil that the tree would need. When that big tree get struck by lightning or falls over in a storm the light reaches again the soil and all kinds of species start developing and fighting for that little bit of space again until a certain harmony has been reached again. Even the chaos between the old stability of the old tree and the new stability of growing new fauna is orchestrated in nature to provide sustainable progress through natural dynamics.
Our globe is a natural ecosystem in which humankind is a simple species that makes its own nest so dirty that eventually it cannot survive anymore and disappears. Others take over and may even find evolutionary ways to use all the garbage left behind by humankind. We have seen this occur regionally already over history. The Lycians, Maya’s, Romans, large human cultures in the Amazon, Africa….all had their period of glory and then broke up into chaos to eventually become food for study of archaeologists.
We are part of the wisdom of our environment that adapts itself wisely with every change that occurs. Even humankind building cities is something nature deals with within the laws of nature, not those of the human beings. So why should we worry about our planet Earth, our universe or the other species when all they do is adjust to the circumstances? And if they don’t adapt they perish, like we will disappear if we do not adjust. We should hence really worry about ourselves. For once we can really become selfish as we start thinking of the evolutionary preservation of our species.
If we are so afraid of death that we invented even fake money systems to avoid conflicts and become addicted to material possessions, to compensate for the expectation of death arriving, we should be even more afraid if the species does not even exist anymore for those who believe in re-encarnation. The death of all deaths from any evolutionary perspective is that the line of evolution stops. Humankind will be forgotten the same day the last person collapses to disappear for ever. Is our current greed and desire for control worth all that? Apparently it is. It seems to be part of our nature to let our selfinterest florish whenever it gets a chance even if this means that our species, including our individual self, disappears. What a waste!
What caused so much self-destruction? The biggest problem humankind has developed, maybe as an accident of nature, is our self consciousness. It should be an accident of nature to give us such high level of self awareness because if it were an act of God we would surely be destined to use it differently. Becoming self conscious we were challenged to reflect about life, living and death, coming to an incredible array of beliefs, competitive behaviors and levels of understanding. We were challenged by the nature to self-reflect about everything and we received eternity to learn if we would be capable of putting our learning into practice. But are we?
From a biological point of view we are a parasite that is becoming aware of its existence and condition as a aggressive parasite and not as a super being. We are also becoming aware that we have the potential to become a super being if we let go of being a parasite. The biggest challenge humankind is facing today is to let go of being animal and become special by using awareness and consciousness for our own evolution. By making us consciously dependent again of our surroundings we can learn how to control our own progress. But are we all willing to make such sacrifice, to let our greed be locked up in favor of our evolutionary perspectives? Who seeks wellness in the future if we want it right now? Only today exists and tomorrow never comes.
Clearly, humankind is not a natural disaster. We are only a disaster to ourselves. We distinguish ourselves from the animal world with the doubtful gift of awareness. This is only a gift if it is used to position humankind in such a way that it places itself outside the unexpected effects of natural disasters, including our own self destructive attitude. But if we do that we need to do it all together and not just a handful. That is what I expect to happen in the end. In that case humankind would appear as a true miracle of nature. But for that humankind is not yet worthy of that denomination. For now we are still a risk to everything on earth, including our own selves.
Sustainocracy, the new democracy
