The history of humanity, in the last 300 years since the industrial revolution, has resulted in wars, famine, and ecological devastation. Based on the search for power by the men who lead the world's nations.
Gold, oil, diamonds, and water, as natural resources of the earth, have become the exploitation objective of the great nations to quench the thirst for material objects, forgetting our direct connection with the material world and creating destruction in natural systems and within us.
And although the conscience in the depth of our hearts has led us to look at how the industries that provide us with food, clothing, and drugs daily maintain predatory practices that have led to the ruin of entire communities and countries, we continue in the eagerness to consume something new. always.
This excessive and unnecessary consumerism is a consequence of our disconnection from nature and ourselves; it is the result of the separation that humans feel, from our essence, from our origin, from where we come as a species, and our relationship as part of the creation.
This reality is the leading cause of our significant social problems: hunger, insecurity, violence, discrimination, poverty, inequality, corruption, depression, and drug addiction.
This truth, which shines like the sun for all, makes a call to the human conscience because, from the conscience and the transformation of our actions, we manage to vindicate the damages we have caused to nature and our society. Opening our eyes and making day-to-day decisions creates the world we dream of as a society.
Returning to our center, to the truth that makes us children of Mother Nature, divine and perfect, recognizing our origin, pure and healthy, allows us to vindicate our actions and live in harmony in our Being; without the need to constantly search for external satisfaction to the gaps that only fills the deep connection with the creation from within.
