If we are to live without rulers, and be our own monarchs, we still must get along with our fellows. How to do it?

Groups of people have to figure out how to work together to accomplish something, because, thanks to our indoctrinational school systems over many generations, we no longer learn manners, logic, critical thinking, etc. There is good reason for this. The "powers that be" have wanted us completely at their mercy and disunited. They won't even need to come and take our guns away because we are so fragmented that we cannot possibly work together or communicate effectively, hence they win.

It has infected like a disease, down to even the raising of children and the family unity. Usually group think ensues because most of us do not know how to think for ourselves and be in a group setting. One person "takes over" and then the rest rebel. Or one person takes over and the rest sell their souls to that person. They get scared and can't find their voice. We were taught this and conditioned so that we can be ruled.

If human beings try to decide something together without a set of principles, it ends up falling into a hierarchy. This is Natural Law.

We must use clear principles if we are to accomplish anything of value. What is the point of being a spouter of Natural Law principles, if in our actions, we settle for being tyrannical rulers in practice?

The "powers that be" have done an excellent job at taking us over from within. They have created cowards who think independent thoughts by ourselves behind our computer screens, but who, in a group, cannot get along at all.

This is proved out in the fact that Mark Passio stepped down from the Free Your Mind conference this year after 5 years. The task at hand MUST be - how do we get along with each other without comprimise?

We have to have a physical WAY that follows Natural Law, that we can practice, that will create horizontal leadership and allow the Principles to prevail, rather than egos.

Try this at home:

Here are some practical principles based on Natural Law, to use for starters.

The highest good for all should come first. If any suffer, all suffer.
We have one authority - Natural Law, and it will reveal itself for each circumstance through the voice of all members of the group.
Participation does not depend on money, authority, property or conformity, which can easily divert us from the highest good for all and the suffering of none.
As above, so below. As below, so above. As within, so without.

Try this with your family or a group of friends when you need to make a decision - something unimportant, like where to go on a vacation for starters. Take one principle at a time, and go around the room, getting participation from everyone, regarding where to go, and holding each suggestion and idea against each principle. Let each person be courteous and self-governing with regards to how they behave during the sessions.Plan about 1 hour per session and try to have no more than 10 people present to start with. The more people present, the longer it will take, so BE PATIENT. It might take a few sessions. Have someone write down what is said. You might be amazed at the result.

Great post and wonderful idea. Mark Passio stepped down from FYM? He's been backing off for a while and stepping out of the lime light so I guess I'm not really that surprised but he will be sorely missed.

Yes. It definitely had to do with how they were all communicating because it was like one week before the conference, and he made an announcement on Facebook and his website that he would not be speaking at FYM. He was very courteous about it and would not name names or discuss reasons. People went nuts on fB trying to figure out why and what happened, but ultimately it must have been that the group itself had no unity and there were egos and dishonesty going before principles.

Happens all too often these days...

POWERFUL read and so true in soooo many ways.

thank you! yes! It is a powerful position, and most people don't know about it - but it is the neutral position. Neutrality is how we rise above Polarity.

thank you! Try this. I have been using this method with a group of friends for over a few years and it is amazing - the unity and the friendships created by doing this and the effect it has on the kids who are nearby as well.

I am as well, it was a rhetorical question . ; )
All support is helpful, but when a group gets involved...that is when we can create a positive change throughout.
Do not stop being YOU and NEVER let anything or anyone ruin your day!!
I appreciate you for you.
