Non-separateness or oneness is not about non-diversity or uniformness in the diverse community

Non-separateness or oneness in the teachings of yoga or buddhism, is nothing to do with the passionate idea and vision deriving from ignorance and egoism to be developing and empowering a 'strong', 'uniformed/non-diversified' group identity in a particular community, school, company, tribe, religion, culture, sports, politic, military, area, state, or country, that emphasizes on uniformness, togetherness, loyalty and patriotism by discouraging, restricting, oppressing and eliminating diversity within a group of community, while empowering discrimination and defensiveness towards all the others that are different from 'us' or not the same as 'us', that don't support towards, or comply with, or fit into 'our' uniformed group identity.

Selflessness, non-separateness or oneness, is the absence of attachment and identification towards all kinds of qualities of names and forms, while respecting all kinds of diversities being what they are, as they are, and all are impermanent. It's not about depriving a unique personal identity to be empowering a group identity holding and sharing common names and forms of appearance, action, reaction, way of living, way of thinking, belief, ideas, desires, visions, values and practice.

Non-separateness or oneness is there as it is, upon the realization towards the nature of selflessness and impermanence in all kinds of diverse names and forms under different qualities and uniqueness, that leads towards respect, accommodation, tolerance, non-discrimination, non-violence, peace and harmony among the world of many diversities, that embraces all kinds of diversities as they are, instead of discriminating and eliminating diversities to be uniforming all and everyone to be 'non-distinctive' among one another, out of ignorance or selfish intention.

It's actually contrary to that passionate egoistic idea and vision of developing a 'uniformed' and 'non-diversified' group identity that is about upholding 'unity' or 'togetherness' among that particular group, that is not so much for developing respect, accommodation, tolerance, non-discrimination, peace and harmony in the world, but it's mainly about building a strong shield of self-protectiveness or defense (recruiting or forming a group of supporters/workers/servants/army) out of survival instinct to be protecting towards the survival of one's own particular interest, or ambition, or group, or community, or country and etc, as well as out of greed towards 'claiming' and 'possessing' more and more space, land, natural resources, food, wealth and security, that promotes corruption, force, bully, threat, violence, invasion and war, which hurts, damages, or destroys world peace and harmony, physical well-being, mental health, lives and the surrounding environment.

The idea and value of 'unity' or 'patriotism' within a community/area/region/country/specie, is meaningless and useless under the absence of ignorance and egoism. The world of diverse human beings, not just within a particular community, area, region or country, will be peaceful and harmony as it is, if the minds are void of ignorance and egoism.

That's why the selfish, greedy, highly ambitious and prideful 'politicians' or 'leaders' that shout about 'unity' and 'patriotism', don't like or welcome the existence of non-separateness or oneness, respect, accommodation, tolerance, non-discrimination, non-hatred, non-selfish, non-violence, peace and harmony among the people of many diversities in this world. As they would have no 'power' or 'opportunity' to be accomplishing their selfish greedy ambitions.

May all minds realize non-separateness or oneness among all diversities upon the realization towards selflessness and impermanence in all and everything, and be free from selfishness, greed, corruption, discrimination, hatred and violence. The only 'difficulty' or 'almost impossibility' to achieve that, is the minds themselves need to have awareness towards the ignorance in themselves, and be initiative to free themselves from ignorance.

The only way to stop corruption, discrimination, hatred, bully, threat, violence and war in this world of human beings, is the minds being free from ignorance and egoism, and the by-products of ignorance and egoism, the root cause of all kinds of corruption, discrimination, hatred, bully, threat, violence and war. A fight ends upon the fighters themselves stop fighting. A war begins and ends by the one(s) who igniting and participating in a war. Anger, hatred, violence, hurt, bully and discrimination cease existing upon the one(s) who is(are) angry, hating, violent, hurting, bullying and discriminating stopped being angry, hating, violent, hurting, bullying and discriminating.

Yoga, is definitely not about attending regular yoga classes, yoga courses or yoga retreats, acquiring some yoga practice or teaching certifications, engaging in some yoga poses, stretching exercises, breathing exercises, cleansing exercises, detoxification, concentration exercises, chanting, mindfulness, healing, relaxation, enjoyment of the senses, clean eating, pure diet, or connection building under different brands and styles, to attain some impermanent physical and mental or emotional benefits, to feel good, calmed, relaxed, empowered, inspired, healthy, strong and meaningful momentarily, but it's about the elimination of ignorance and egoism. Although there's nothing wrong or bad with people who are interested in yoga and the benefits of the different yoga practice, but are not interested in the elimination of ignorance and egoism. It's everyone's freedom of thinking, desire and action.

Those who understand, there's no such idea of "I am being proud of ......"

Those who don't understand, there's the idea of "I am being proud of ......" as well as instilling and encouraging the sense of pride towards certain qualities, possessions and identities in oneself and others.

Anyone, including close friends and family members, successful people and social media influencers, or some 'teachers', 'politicians' and 'leaders', who instill, promote and empower the sense of pride in particular quality, possession and identity, while encourage the sense of shame, discrimination and hatred towards some others, who dislike and discourage openness and respect towards all without discrimination, who disagree with open-mindedness and mental/emotional independence, know that these minds are functioning under the deep influence of ignorance and egoism.

Guiding the ignorant minds towards seeing the ignorance in the mind

Because of the veil of ignorance, most minds under the influence of ignorance are not aware of the ignorance in the mind, as the minds simply don't see, recognize, identify or realize the ignorance in itself, or being too prideful to be acknowledging the presence of ignorance in itself, including the minds that are highly intelligent and knowledgeable, or kind and loving. And hence, there arise the cause that give rise to the limited and imperfect impermanent names and forms of certain teachings (that can be misinterpreted and misunderstood by certain minds due to the veil of ignorance) and certain teachers (that can be imperfect and disagreeable, that don't necessarily being recognized and appreciated by the ignorant egoistic minds) that serve the purpose of being the teachings and disseminating the teachings and guiding the ignorant minds towards seeing the ignorance in the mind through certain ways, even though the entire process and effort has to come from the ignorant minds themselves to be initiated of making the effort to discipline, purify and quiet the mind by themselves, to realize or know what is going on in themselves, of realizing or knowing Thyself, to be aware of the veil of ignorance while being limited and conditioned by the veil of ignorance.

Even when there are many people are interested in engaging in certain yoga activities of attending yoga classes and retreats, to be performing some kinds of yoga practice regularly, to attain some momentary sense of goodness and certain physical and mental benefits from performing the yoga practice, however, not many are seriously interested in the annihilation of ignorance and egoism, of renunciation and dispassion, of silence, seclusion and solitude, of discipline and self-reliance, of non-attachment and non-identification, of non-dualism and non-separateness, of 'I'lessness and desirelessness, of non-craving and non-aversion, of self-inquiry and self-realization, to see the ignorance in the mind, and be determined to free the mind from the veil of ignorance, the root cause of all kinds of suffering arising from within, but instead, being enthusiastic towards developing and empowering passionate connection, relationship and interaction among one another to be attaining momentary sense of love, power, control, goodness, righteousness, positiveness, healthiness, wholesomeness, accomplishment, satisfaction, joyfulness and meaningfulness in the world of selflessness and impermanence.

There's nothing bad or wrong with that. It's just that the minds are not working towards liberation from ignorance, and hence, might not be free from generating actions and reactions that cause suffering and damages in oneself and unto others and the surrounding environment, either wittingly or unwittingly, out of ignorance, egoism and impurities (corrupted passionate egoistic thinking, belief, values, practice and desires).

Anyone, either wise or ignorant, kind or unkind, agreeable or disagreeable, and anything, of all kinds of experiences, conditions, situations, relationships and the perception of names and forms through the senses that are either easy or difficult, desirable or undesirable, pleasant or unpleasant, agreeable or disagreeable, enjoyable or painful suffering, is the dhamma or the teachings, as well as the dhamma teacher, or the yoga teacher, or the teacher of the mind, for the ignorant minds.

The dhamma, the teachings, the dhamma teachers, the yoga teachers, or the teachers of the mind, as well as the ignorant suffering minds, the students, or the practitioners, are not distinct or separated from one another. They are ONE under different names and forms.

The mind that perceives restless suffering under the presence of the veil of ignorance is the dhamma, the teachings, the teacher, the student and the practitioner itself.

When the mind perceives, recognizes and acknowledges 'certain forms of external teachings and external teachers under certain names and forms', that appeared to be distinct and separated from itself, that seemed to be present externally to be teaching and guiding this mind towards seeing the ignorance in itself, are just being what they are. It's coming from the mind itself, upon perceiving or coming in contact with such names and forms, under the presence of the yearning for liberation, the initiative, the effort, the reflection and the realization arising from within itself, that is why the mind perceives, sees and recognizes such names and forms as the teachings and the teachers of itself. If the yearning for liberation, the initiative, the effort, the reflection and the realization are absent in this mind, then such names and forms are just being what they are, neither 'the teachings and teachers' nor 'not the teachings and teachers'.

A lot of time, the teachings and the teachers are the names and forms that the mind perceives and recognizes as something difficult, unpleasant, undesirable, disagreeable, unsuccessful, or painful suffering. And at other time, they are the names and forms that the mind perceives and recognizes as something easy, pleasant, desirable, agreeable, successful, or enjoyable. As either something that the mind likes or dislikes, or either something that the mind thinks and believes as good or bad, all are selfless and impermanent. All kinds of duality that is selfless and impermanent being perceived by the mind, enabling the ignorant egoistic mind to experience the suffering of the restless selflessness and impermanence under the presence of ignorance and egoism, as well as to reflect and see or realize the truth of selflessness and impermanence in itself and whatever it perceives or experiences (subject and object).

Suffering arise under the presence of grasping or attachment. Suffering doesn't exist upon the absence of grasping or attachment.

All are dhamma. All are teachers. All are not distinct or separated from this perceptive thinking mind. Without this selfless perceptive mind perceiving selfless impermanent names and forms, what is the world of life existence? what is dhamma? What is teacher? What is selflessness and impermanence? What is suffering? What is the end of suffering?

Inquire the truth of everything, including all the teachings of buddhism and/or yoga that the mind comes in contact with.

Heart Sutra is the dhamma, the teaching, the practice and the realization

Just as any other kind of Sutra, the Heart Sutra is the selfless impermanent name and form of the dhamma, the teaching, the practice, as well as the realization of Selflessness and Impermanence in all the names and forms, including the selfless limited physical body and the selfless perceptive cognitive assertive intellectual emotional thinking mind, transcending duality and separateness, void of suffering and the end of suffering.

The dhamma, the teaching, the practice, the realization, exists for the minds that perceive the suffering of restless selfless impermanent changes under the presence of the veil of ignorance.

The dhamma, the teaching, the practice, the realization, has no cause to be existing for the minds that are void of the veil of ignorance and suffering. The dhamma, the teaching, the practice, the realization, is non-existent to the selfless ignorance-free non-grasping mind, just as suffering doesn't exist upon the annihilation of the veil of ignorance, and there's no 'I' existing to be attaching and identifying towards selfless modification of the perceptive thinking mind perceiving all kinds of impermanent names and forms arising, changing and passing away, selflessly.

Shadow exists under the presence of light. Upon the absence of light, shadow doesn't exist.

'I' exists under the veil of ignorance. Upon the absence of the veil of ignorance, 'I' doesn't exist.

The idea of 'I' and the suffering that arise along with the idea of 'I', exist due to the presence of the veil of ignorance. And hence, there's the cause for the arising of the path towards the end of suffering, or the annihilation of the veil of ignorance.

The idea of 'I' and the suffering that arise along with the idea of 'I', don't exist upon the absence of the veil of ignorance. And hence, there's no cause for the existence of the path towards the end of suffering, or the annihilation of the veil of ignorance.

All is dhamma.

And yet,

Contradictory under the presence of the veil of ignorance, while non-contradictory under the absence of the veil of ignorance, not only that there's no 'I', there's no ignorance, no end of ignorance, no wisdom, no gain, no dhamma, no teaching, no practice, no realization, no eyes (sights), no ears (sounds), no nose (smells), no tongue (tastes), no body (senses, sense organs, sensations), no mind (thoughts, feelings, emotions), no consciousness, no suffering, no end of suffering, no increase, no decrease, no impurity, no purity. Merely selfless impermanent names and forms arising, changing and passing away under the nature's law of cause and effect.

Without direct realization towards the dhamma of selflessness and impermanence, without transcending selfless impermanent names and forms, duality and separateness, just by chanting the Heart Sutra or the mantra repeatedly for countless times, the mind is not free.

Inquire the truth of everything, including all the teachings of buddhism and/or yoga.

What yoga, if without the annihilation of the idea of 'I' and egoism?

The entire yoga and meditation practice is all about the annihilation of ignorance and egoism.

Some don't even aware of the existence of the ego and egoism within the modification of the mind, or are being ignorant towards what is the ego and egoism.

Some might think that they know and understand about what is the ego and egoism, but not really.

Such as the ego is merely the idea of 'I' arising in the mind due to ignorance, or the delusive identity of a permanent individual existence, which identifies with the selfless impermanent modification of the mind and the restless mind perception of selfless impermanent qualities of names and forms to be "This is who and what I am", or even, "This is who I really am" and "This is my true self", however, many minds might be understanding that, 'Ego' is one of the qualities of a person. For example, one might think that 'someone has small ego or no ego' means 'someone who is humble and down to earth', or, 'someone has big or strong ego' means 'someone who is a bossy, self-righteous, prideful and arrogant bully, who sees oneself high up and looks down on others, easily be offended, and who likes to show off and lecture others'.

Some have certain degrees of awareness towards the idea of 'I' and egoism, but aren't interested in freeing the mind from the idea of 'I' and egoism. Such as, there's the attachment, identification and judgment of, "I have good ego. I am a good person. I am not a bad person. I do good and don't do bad," and vice versa, or "I have neither good nor bad ego. I am neither a good nor bad person."

Some are interested in freeing the mind from the idea of 'I' and egoism, but find it very hard or even impossible to do so.

It's like, "How can 'I' negate 'I' from 'I'?" or, "How can 'I' detach from 'I'?" or, "How can 'I' (that doesn't exist) exist, know and realize that there's no 'I'?" or, "If 'I' know that ('I' doesn't exist), then what is this 'I' who is knowing about ('I' doesn't exist)?"

That thinking or understanding, alone, is indeed being ignorant towards ignorance. And there's nothing wrong with being ignorant towards ignorance. However, one might be constantly and unwittingly generate actions and reactions that might hurt oneself and/or others out of the influence of ignorance, regardless of whether one identifies oneself as a good person who does good, or a bad person who does bad, or a person that is neither good nor bad.

None can remove ignorance and egoism from the mind, but itself.

It's not 'I' practice yoga. It's not 'I' eliminating the idea of 'I' and egoism from the modification of the mind. It's not 'I' perform self-inquiry attaining self-realization being liberated from ignorance. It's not 'I' meditate quieting the modification of the mind attaining Silence/Samadhi/Annihilation of the restless modification of the mind. It's merely the selfless perceptive cognitive assertive intellectual emotional thinking faculty perceives the suffering of restlessness of selfless impermanent changes, and has the yearning for liberation being initiative to free itself from the veil of ignorance and the by-products of ignorance, of restless selfless impermanence. It's merely the selfless restless suffering thinking mind performs persevered yoga and meditation practice quieting the restless modification of the mind, inquiring towards "Who am I/What is I" to know itself, or know Thyself, that is selfless. It's the selfless suffering restless mind attains relief/liberation from the suffering of restlessness upon the non-violent yet self-disciplined subjugation of the restless modification of the mind. - YOGA CHITTA VRITTI NIRODHA

It's merely the selfless perceptive cognitive assertive intellectual emotional thinking mind having the idea of 'I' that attaches onto and identifies with the modification of the mind of restless thoughts activities and perception of names and forms being perceived through the senses (the worldly life experience of 'I' and 'mine', with all the others who are not 'I', that are separated and different from 'I', and all kinds of desirable and undesirable relationships, pleasant and unpleasant experiences, agreeable and disagreeable names and forms), under the influence of ignorance.

It's the mind that realizes there's no 'I' existing along with the annihilation of egoism, where the perceiver and the perceived (subject and object) are all selfless and impermanent. It doesn't mean that the mind is numbed, or doesn't feel or perceive anything. Whatever the mind perceives, knows, thinks and feels, good or bad, pleasant or unpleasant, agreeable or disagreeable, it's just the selfless impermanent modification of the selfless mind, of the continuous stream of countless thoughts arising and passing away ceaselessly, powered by energy (Prana) and governed by the nature law of cause and effect, either under the influence of ignorance (the presence of grasping) or void of ignorance (the absence of grasping). Upon the presence of grasping from the selfless perceptive cognitive intellectual assertive thinking faculty towards the selfless stream of thought activities, there arise an idea of 'I', identifying, experiencing, asserting and desiring, that is enjoying or suffering due to the gratification and non-gratification of the desire of craving and aversion. The absence of grasping, there's no 'I' arising. Merely a selfless stream of thought-current of impermanent names and forms, arising and passing away selflessly. There's no 'I' existing to be identifying as "This is I", or, "This the real I".

There's no "I am pure or I am not pure", or, "I am good or I am not good", or, "I am happy or I am not happy", or, "I am a vegetarian or I am a non-vegetarian", or, "I am selfless and compassionate or I am not selfless and not compassionate".

One can be reading, hearing and learning about the teachings and practice of yoga from many different teachers, and has been performing many different types of yoga and meditation practice for many hours, days, months and years, and/or teaching certain brand and style of yoga and meditation practice to many others, while enjoying the many different benefits of the different yoga and meditation practice that are also selfless and impermanent, however, if all those practices are not being done along with the annihilation of the idea of 'I' and egoism, where there is still the idea of 'I' with attachment, identification, desire of craving and aversion, comparison, judgment and expectation in the mind towards the different selfless impermanent qualities of names and forms, towards the actions and the fruit of actions, where the mind is still being conditioned and determined by all kinds of dualism in everyday life existence, in all kinds of relationship with everyone, based on particular passionate egoistic worldly conditioned social and cultural thinking, belief, values and practice, if so, what yoga?

The mind that knows, it is not being determined by the sense of happiness and unhappiness, meaningfulness and meaninglessness, or pleasant and unpleasant feelings. It doesn't need to feel happy all the time, and even, it doesn't need to feel happy or unhappy, meaningful or meaningless about anything at all, it doesn't need to be in control controlling everything to be or not to be in certain way, observing everything arising, changing and passing away as it is, being free from attachment and identification towards selfless impermanent changes in all kinds of duality, even though one can be intellectually/emotionally agreeing or disagreeing towards everything, without craving towards what is agreeable and without aversion towards what is disagreeable. It's unconditional peace beyond the different states of the mind that are selfless and impermanent. The passionate egoistic mind that doesn't know, would have difficulty understanding what that is. It would think that it's a form of mental illness or mental defect of emotionlessness.

The mind that doesn't know, the entire modification of the mind under the perception of a selfless impermanent worldly life existence of selfless impermanent names and forms, is what it thinks and believes is what it is, or who I am, "This is I, my body, my mind, my life, my existence, my survival, my feelings, my emotions, my ability/disability, my achievement/non-achievement, my enjoyment/suffering, my actions/fruit of actions, my passion/desire, my qualification, my belief, my values, my culture, my religion, my birth origin, my nation/nationality, my world, my property, my land, my ethnicity, my family, my friends, my relatives, my community, my possessions, my relationships, and everyone and everything else that is not I and mine."

Without renunciation and seclusion away from everyday worldly egoistic affair, contact and interaction with the passionate egoistic minds that are under the influence of ignorance and egoism, it's difficult for the mind to have that 'clear space' to allow itself to inquire towards all these, that it thinks and believes and identifies as 'I' and 'how life should be like'. All social conversations/interactions are nothing but empowering the idea of 'I' and 'mine', and everyone and everything else that is 'not I' and 'not mine', as well as empowering egoism of attachment, identification, desire, comparison, judgment and expectation. The worldly passionate egoistic minds expect all and everyone behaving and not behaving in certain way based on their own particular thinking, belief, values and practice, categorizing and judging this and that as 'good' or 'bad', 'right' or 'wrong, 'normal' or 'abnormal', 'healthy' or 'unhealthy', 'appropriateness' or 'offensiveness', and so on, generating all kinds of unnecessary complication and disturbance to oneself and everyone. It's worst, when there's greed and selfishness that inflicts so much unnecessary violence and damages onto all and everyone and the environment.

Under the influence of ignorance and egoism, the passionate egoistic people/minds cannot understand that why certain people/minds are void of the sense of loneliness, unhappiness, dissatisfaction or meaninglessness if without any companionship, communication, activity or interaction with some other human beings or living beings. For them, without any companionship, communication, activity or interaction with some other human beings or living beings, is a form of unhealthiness, painful sorrow or suffering, where all 'normal' human beings should be suffering from the sense of loneliness, unhappiness, dissatisfaction and meaninglessness, otherwise, it's not 'normal', or it's a form of mental defect/illness, if some people are void of such suffering.

After attaining direct realization towards the selfless impermanent modification of the mind through self-inquiry, the selfless ignorance-free mind may or may not live and mingle among the worldly minded, communicating and interacting with some other minds having the inevitable human social conversations or interactions about 'this' and 'that', while may or may not performing certain actions and engaging in certain activities, however, there's no 'I' being there attaching towards and identifying with the actions and the fruit of actions. This mind is not being determined by the pleasant and unpleasant or agreeable and disagreeable experiences, relationships, interactions, conditions and situations in the world of ignorance and egoism.

Not playing the game that empowers egoism and ignorance

Life is not always easy, and can be quite hard at certain time, where many of those unnecessary uneasiness and hardship are the by-products deriving from the ignorance and egoism of the prideful selfish human beings, that can be avoided if more minds, especially those who have the capability and opportunity to be the leaders or influencers in the world, are free from the influence of ignorance and egoism, which is unfortunately not the case in this world.

It's understandable that out of survival instinct, many people would just play along with the egoistic game of diplomacy and grouping, that is built on hypocrisy and identification that empowers ignorance, egoism, selfishness, possessiveness, separateness and all kinds of discrimination, in order to avoid certain 'difficulties', and be able to enjoy a life that is less 'hard' by being compliant towards many 'human made rules and regulations created out of selfishness' that don't necessarily make life any easier but more complicated.

If one gives in to the unnecessary difficulty and complication that derived from the ignorance and egoism in the world, and desire to be enjoying a slightly easier living condition while being existing in this world of ignorance and egoism, where one plays along with the game of ignorance and egoism, that empowers attachment, identification, desire, comparison, judgment and expectation, then not only that one is not helping the world to be a better place for all beings non-discriminatively, to have less corrupted thinking, belief, actions and reactions, but one is empowering the system that is created out of the ignorance and egoism of human beings, that gives rise to ongoing unnecessary corruptions, difficulties, hardships, damages and suffering in the world.

All kinds of talking and activism about spreading awareness about 'peace in the world', 'non-discrimination', 'all lives matter', 'non-violence', 'corruption free government', 'clean and fair justice and democracy', 'environmental friendly ecological clean way of living', 'vegetarianism', 'veganism', and so on, might help to relieve certain degrees of human made damages in the world, but it doesn't eliminate the source of all kinds of human made problems and damages deriving from the highly corrupted 'system', if the minds are not free from ignorance and egoism, where everyone is playing along with the game of egoism, supporting and empowering the 'system' that derived from and empowers selfishness, pride, attachment, identification, possessiveness, separateness and discrimination, either wittingly or unwittingly.

If a nation will only grant a person a citizenship, if one speaks their particular language proficiently and live life according to their national and cultural belief, values and practice, that one is being proud of being one of them, that one will support, promote and defend their particular political ideas, visions and values, that one has to know their national anthem and the past history of their governmental leaders and affairs, where they cannot accept one as it is, where one doesn't necessarily speak their particular language, doesn't necessarily live life according to their national and cultural belief, values and practice, is not having any attachment and identification or pride towards a national or community or family identity, is not interested in any political ideas and values, doesn't know their national anthem or any other national anthems, and is not interested in the past history of any governmental leaders and affairs in the world that are nothing but the product of egoism and the fuel that feeds egoism, then 'I' am not interested in attaining such citizenship, even though 'I' respect the action and decision of such human beings won't grant someone their particular national citizenship under such 'egoistic conditions, rules and regulations', that's their freedom of thinking, belief, values and action, but 'I' am not playing the game of ignorance and egoism in order to attain any particular citizenship that might or might not make life less difficult.

Being a 'rightful' citizen of any particular nation in the world of corruption, doesn't necessarily mean that there will be less difficulty or suffering in life existence arising from the ignorance of human beings. The situation in the world right now, in this present moment, and at anytime, is indeed the greatest teacher of the mind. One doesn't need to go anywhere in search for a teacher to teach oneself about ignorance and the consequences of ignorance. This world of human beings is full of ignorance and the consequences of ignorance.

Not speaking any particular language proficiently, not living life according to any particular national and cultural belief, values and practice, not having any attachment and identification or pride towards any national or community or family identity, not interested in any political ideas and values that empowers separateness and selfishness, not knowing any national anthem, and not interested in the past history of any governmental leaders and affairs that empowers possessiveness and greed, it doesn't mean that one is not respecting all kinds of lives, or one is being disrespectful towards other people's different ways of living in accordance to a particular national and cultural belief, values and practice, or one will be intentionally creating unnecessary problems, damages and inconvenience to other people in the society, or one won't be kind and helpful towards other beings unconditionally, or one won't be looking after the general welfare of all and everyone non-discriminatively in the world of diversity, regardless of the different names and forms.

Unless the policy of a country is not at all about welcoming peaceful human beings that embrace peace and harmony among all and everyone non-discriminatively, that would help and be kind towards one another unselfishly, that welcome world peace or universal peace without possessiveness, selfishness, discrimination, hatred, bully and violence, but it's more about having their own particular political demands and agendas, to be 'recruiting' supporters and manpower that would be empowering and defending their 'power and wealth status' and 'possessions', then let it be. They want human beings that are aggressive and violent, that will fight for them to accomplish their selfish greedy ambition of conquering and possessing more and more territories and natural resources via bullying, threat, force and violence, to boost their status of power and wealth. Human beings who want peace and harmony are useless to them. Many of the people in certain nations are being manipulated by such ignorant egoistic leaders and influencers to become more and more selfish, self-righteous, self-protective, discriminating, hating and violent, where they are not interested at all in the peace and harmony among all diversities in the world, or to be looking after the welfare of all and everyone in the world of diversities non-discriminatively, but only to enhance and protect the welfare of themselves and those whom they refer as one of them.

Similarly, within a personal relationship or a family relationship, one will not be playing the game of diplomacy and grouping, empowering the ignorance and egoism in oneself and others.

The game of diplomacy and grouping is being seen as the way to develop and maintain peace and harmony within the personal relationship, the family and the society, where one is being told to keep the head down and be silent towards any forms of ill-treatment unto oneself and/or others, but that's only encouraging and empowering ignorance and corruption in the world on all levels.

Not being determined or disturbed by the ignorance of others in the world, or not fighting against the ignorance in the world, doesn't mean that one should be submissive and silent towards all kinds of ill-treatment, not walking away from such abusive situations when there's possibility to do so, and being there allowing oneself and/or others to be ill-treated by some others repeatedly and continuously, encouraging and empowering the ignorance of others.

Ignorance is unstoppable

Ignorance is unstoppable in this world of human beings, ceaselessly fed by growing greed and selfishness, the best friends of survival instinct, possessiveness and boundless desire.

One is considered highly fortunate, if one has certain degrees of awareness towards the modification of the mind and has certain degrees of correct understanding and self-control of not wanting to harm oneself and/or others and the surrounding environment selfishly, even if one is not completely be free from certain degrees of ignorance and the consequences of ignorance, or not free from certain degrees of egoism and desires, and there are certain inevitable limitations in this worldly life existence due to the nature of selflessness and impermanence in all kinds of names and forms, or all and everything is being restricted by time, space and causation, on top of the many unnecessary meanness, difficulties or suffering deriving from the unstoppable growing ignorance in the world.

Those who don't know, they attached onto goodness and/or badness, where some would be determined and disturbed by the presence of badness and the absence of goodness, while some would do anything to hurt all and everything in order to achieve what they think is 'goodness'/'prosperity'/'righteousness'/'power'/'survival'/'security'/'victory' for themselves.

Those who know, they don't attached towards either goodness or badness in this world, and they are not being determined or disturbed by the presence of badness or the absence of goodness, where they won't hurt anyone or anything out of the selfish desire to achieve what others think is 'goodness'/'prosperity'/'righteousness'/'power'/'survival'/'security'/'victory' for themselves, but respecting the nature of selflessness and impermanence in all and everything being limited by time, space and causation.

When it's time to go, none can stay, ignorant or not.
