Relationships and Inward Solitude
Wars are faught when two sides agree that disagreeing is disagreeable. This agreement is another form of conformity and unity. It is when civilization has evolved to view disagreement as the only true way to peace and wisdom that all will profit from a level of life and worldly experience on this Earth that compares with the difference between the lives of those in Plato's cave and that of the quite sitting Buddha who knows.
We must remain in constant inward solitude, for this is the only reality. It is only ourself inside of ourselves. Nobody can ever join us there. The more we try to blend in and conform with the testaments of how the world is according to outward information the more we disconnect with our center and source and all powers granted by nature and the divine.
A healthy relationship is not one that would have one person or both attempting to win the other to his or her side. There is no side. The center is dimensionless. The harmonious relationship is one where disharmony is the goal in that disharmony is viewed as two that can never be outwardly one; yet can be one inwardly where only each one can know.
Disagreement must be found agreeable for this to work. Though two energies who truly do meet on the inward planes and vibrate each other to a higher pitch will most likely be much closer to the same experience of reality. Those whose energies do not vibrate inwardly in a harmonious fashion will most likely be in complete or near complete denial of the subjectivity of individual conscious experience of reality. These types of people are generally base souls (soul being used here to describe that which is aware and exists as experiencer) who have limited themselves early on from graduation to higher levels of conscious experience of a more true and absolute reality. Absolute reality underlies all experience. With age and wisdom comes the falling away of personalized fallacies clung to in the developing stages in order to defend against the insecurity of uncertainty.
This is why many who attempt to explain "true" reality as something they alone have access to and can give to others through their words are simply the least connected since true knowledge and connection with the absolute is only gotten to inwardly and by the road of solitude. It is only the individual that can embody virtue. Any who attempt to hand out this virtue are simply subtracting from ultimate virtue by pulling us away from virtue's only path.
Truly listen to others, and they will begin to develop the courage to truly listen to themselves. It is this encouragement that is the highest endeavor and creates the greatest good. For it is a society of people as strongly rooted and secure as Redwoods that becomes impossible to lead like cattle into battle. Peace on Earth requires that all men and all women retreat silently back to the self and in doing so, as the wise poet in India once said, "bannish the dream that sunders part from whole."
