The Dominating Good
Commenting on the last gathering post, a reader expressed the opinion that intelligence decides between what is real and what is not and this has resulted in the world we experience.
He is on the right track here except that intelligence at the human level and below does not decide in terms of what is real and what is not. Instead, it decides in terms of what works and does not work. Now that which works most efficiently (from a holistic view) is that which is most real in terms of useful creation.
For instance, a circular object works best for the wheel. If an intelligence uses any other shape, such as a square or hexagon, he will always come to the conclusion that a round circular object works best.
On the human level we go through trial and error again and again, each time picking that which works best for what we want to accomplish.
We have the basics pretty much settled. We use round objects for wheels, bearings to make them more efficient and a substance with give in it for the tire. We have collectively decided that 2+2=4, that the binary system works in computers and television as an invention is very useful and worthy of improving to the highest level possible.
That which works in the black-and-white concrete areas of life is easiest for intelligence to discern. But then when we move up to the social level it becomes more difficult.
Let us take the debate that is raging today. Is forced socialized medicine the most efficient way to go or not? Close to half the country thinks yes and half thinks no. It seems as if we will never come to an intelligent conclusion.
On the other hand, when we look back to 1860 we see that close to half the country thought slavery was a good thing and half did not. Fortunately, this issue has been resolved and we have concluded as a society that human bondage is not good and is to be avoided.
Today the problem of slavery has merely moved to a higher level. Before we can solve the problem of what works and does not work in socialism the force or bondage aspect must be removed. Eventually we will do this and, just as happened with the slavery issue, we will, as a people, chose that which works best for humanity.
Here is the key piece of knowledge.
Both those on the path of light and dark choose that which works best for them. Both will choose round wheel instead of the square. Both will ultimately choose the same improvements when using only the concrete mind as a database. The dividing point comes when the soul enters into the picture. The soul opens up new data bases and principles from higher worlds and thus allows us to make more accurate decisions about what works and does not work. Those with soul contact thus have a higher vision of what works and does not work.
All of humanity has a chance to achieve soul contact. When a brother of Light gets his chance he will embrace the soul and move onward. When a dark bother gets his chance he will sense the change the soul will bring and make a conscious decision to reject it. He deceives himself into thinking that he can obtain more satisfaction by concentrating on the material world and what works there. With the rejection of the soul he also rejects freedom for the whole for he sees he can only be satisfied if he can control others. He feels he can be free as long as the majority is not.
The committed dark brother thus continues to choose what seems to work best for him, but now has a wall between him and the soul so the intelligence governing his choices is limited and thus not accurate.
Fortunately, the vast majority of entities choose the kingdom of the soul when it presents itself and thus the good of the higher dominates over the lower, or the dominating good prevails.
