“월가를 점령하라” 새로운 패러다임 - 방향제시

월가 점령운동이 제시하는 방향

월가를 점령하라 OWS 운동이 벌어진지 벌써 두달이 지났는데요 이 운동은 아직도 진행중에 있습니다. 혹자는 이 운동이 의도는 좋았지만 이룬 것이 불분명하다고 지적합니다. 어떤 뚜렷한 목표가 없었다고 지적하기도 합니다. 그렇습니다. 눈에 보이는 것은 별로 확실하게 들어오는 것은 없고 단지 권력의 독재문제를 지적하고 금권이 국민을 소외시키고 빈곤을 강요하고 있는 기성체제의 문제를 고발했다는 정도로만 이해하고 있습니다. 그러나 아래 글의 필자는 그 이면에 민권운동이 새로운 모양새를 갖추고 국민의식이 각성이 되는 성과가 있었다고 설명합니다. 그래서 제목이 새로운 사조를 만들기라는 중요한 의미가 붙어있습니다. 무엇이 새로운 사조인지 살펴봅니다.

새로운 패러다임을 만들다

Creating a New Paradigm

과거의 사조 The Old Paradigm

- 과거의 인류문명의 사조란 것은 세계 권력엘리트들이 인류를 통제할 목적으로 수많은 기관과 조직체를 운영해왔다는 사실이다. 그런 기관들은 인류사회에 공포를 조장했고 비밀주의로 세계를 주물렀으며 정치와 경제, 사회 전반을 양극화로 몰아 대립현상을 성행시키므로서 인류가 자기 인생을 살아가지 못하도록 위축시켰다.

- 인류는 엘리트들이 조작하는 여론의 실체를 알 수가 없었다. 테러사건이 나고 전쟁이 벌어져도 인류는 그 내막을 알지못한채 엘리트 언론이 내놓는 조작된 여론에 끌려다니기만 했다. 소위 세계통치 조직의 협잡이고 인류문명의 암흑이 벌어졌던 것이다.

새로운 사조 The New Paradigm

우리는 이제 공포를 수용과 사랑으로 변환시키기로 선택한다. 그러기 위해서 우리에게 가해지는 공포의 뿌리가 무엇인지를 파헤쳐서 그런 원인을 만천하에 공개하고 그에 대한 우리의 도전을 확실하게 밝히려 한다. 이런 노력에 있어서 동료들과 교사들, 영적 존재들이 함께 도와야 할 것이며 이를 통해서 공포를 수용과 이해로 바꾸길 원한다.

만일 세계의 암흑과도 같은 통제조작을 묵인한다면 그 사람은 그런 풍조의 희생자가 될 뿐임을 알아야 한다. 그러나 그런 굴레에서 벗어나서 새로운 사조를 향해서 본인 자신의 역할을 해내야 할 것이다.그것은 새 사조의 운동에 있어 배우고 알리고 실천하는 일을 한다는 것이다.

1) 세계 권력은 비밀주의를 벗어나야 한다. 그리고 개방하고 투명한 활동을 해야 한다. 우리도 이를 위해 주변에 진실을 밝히고 전파하는 노력을 하며 모든 동료들이 이 운동에 참여해주길 요청하는 것이다.

2) 세계 권력이 자행해온 선과 악의 대결이란 양극화 게임을 종식시키길 바란다. 또 모든 사회문제나 전쟁에 이르기 까지 아군과 적으로 편을 가르는 행위도 해소시켜주길 바란다. 이런 소위 국민을 분리시키고 분산시켜서 지배하고 통치하는 숫법은 인류의 이름으로 지탄받아야 한다.

3) 우리는 모두가 자기 신념에 의해 정책을 선택할 권리가 있고 따라서 다양한 사조가 존중받을 수있기를 바란다.

모든 인류의 높은 동기를 존중해주길 바란다. 그 중에 유독 전체주의 식의 권력지향 정책만이 옳은 것이라 해서는 안되며 분쟁을 자기만의 정강정책으로 강요하고 힘으로 누르려는 강압을 포기하길 요청한다.

4) 인류는 양극화로 갈라진 현실을 이해와 수용, 사랑의 마음으로 극복하길 원한다. 그래서 다양한 그룹과 공동체가 서로 존중하면서 함께 가기를 원한다. 우리가 서로 알고 알리며 모임을 적극적으로 가진다면 이런 운동을 지속해 나갈 수있을 것이다.

이런 행동을 통해서 우리는 오늘날 벌어지는 엘리트들의 파괴적 행동을 금지하고 세상을 평화로 만들어 갈수있을 것이다. 우리가 정신계몽운동으로 시작한 새로운 사조의 보급은 이 세계의 창조자 신의 가호에 힘입어서 작은 파동으로 전파되고 급기야 세계인류를 감동하는 강력한 파장의 운동이 되리라 믿는다.

Creating a New Paradigm

"All the darkness of the world cannot put out the light of a single candle."

The Old Paradigm

Together, we are creating a new paradigm on Earth. Yet in order to give meaningful suggestions to further support this, we first need to speak candidly about the old paradigm. It appears that there are factions within the world's power elite which still desire to exert as much control as possible over the world. Their primary means for establishing control are through promoting fear, secrecy, and polarization, and through distracting people from their deeper purpose in life. When these factions gain greater power and control, our freedoms and liberties are increasingly taken away, sometimes without our even realizing it.

Fear is used as a powerful tool of control by these factions of the global elite. "The terrorists want to kill us all. Your job, home, and retirement are no longer secure. You are either for us or against us. We might be attacked at any time." All of these messages push us towards fear. And by encouraging us to focus blame on others such as terrorists and "evil" leaders, the global power brokers push us away from feeling in control of our lives and towards the role of powerless victims, so that we look to them for protection. The more we slip into fear and being victims, the easier it is for us to be manipulated.

Secrecy leads to control through preventing the exposure of hidden agendas, and through breeding distrust, suspicion, and paranoia in the world. In the name of "national security," we have been told ever more frequently that we should not know what is happening behind closed doors in government. Yet we are encouraged to keep vigilant watch over our neighbors, over those who question the government, and over those who look or act different from us, as they could secretly be terrorists in sheep's clothing. Rampant suspicion and secrecy cause us to lose touch with the common humanity we share with all around us.

Polarization leads to "us vs. them" ways of thinking. Divide and conquer is a tactic that has been used successfully by the power elite of the world for centuries. As long as people focus on blaming and attacking "the enemy," they are not likely to look for the deeper causes of their problems. Controlling factions of the power elite work to keep public and media attention focused on issues which divide us into two polarized camps, so that their greatest concerns of power and control go unnoticed. The power brokers then control both sides of the divided public by assuring that corporate ownership of the media and key candidates from all political parties support their deeper power and polarization agendas, which often involve war profiteering.

A final subtle, yet powerful method of gaining control is to distract people from their purpose in life. Consider that television, radio, and movies have been filled with ever more greed, violence, and empty sex. Our educational system has increasingly prioritized passing tests over developing intelligence and creativity. Excessive corporate control of the media has limited what news we receive, and often shaped our decisions and the way we think. Our attention has been subtly diverted from our deeper purpose in life to the more superficial attractions of sex, consumerism, and money.

When we succumb to fear, secrecy, and polarization, and when we lose touch with our sense of purpose in life, elements of the global elite are able to exert ever more control over our lives and world.

The New Paradigm

What can we do about all this? Ultimately, it is the collective fear, secrecy, polarization, and loss of purpose within all of us that has allowed leaders to take power who would subvert democracy, and who would take away our freedoms and liberties. By each one of us making a commitment to work on these issues both inside of ourselves and out in the world – and to inspire others to do the same – we are changing our collective direction and building a solid foundation for a new paradigm. Several actions can help us to take firm steps in that direction.

Develop purpose and intentions for your life. To live full, rich lives in today's complex world, it's vitally important to give your life clear direction by exploring what is deepest and most meaningful to you, and by developing life purpose and intentions based on this. Then choose to live your intentions and follow your purpose to the best of your ability every day. By choosing to live with clear direction and focus, life becomes deeper and more meaningful. This then weakens the seduction of consumerism and media hype which distract us from our purpose, and allows us to more effectively focus on creating a new paradigm.

Choose to transform fear into acceptance and love. When we notice ourselves feeling fear, we can trace the roots of that fear, so that we are able to identify our core challenges and deal more consciously with them. We can open to guidance from friends, teachers, and spiritual sources in helping us to move from fear to acceptance and understanding. We can also transform our fears through welcoming the ever-present love of our divine creator, and the love that lies always deep within our own hearts, and in the hearts of those around us. In doing this, we begin to recognize fear as an invitation to growth.

Become aware of when you are playing the role of victim, and choose instead to take personal responsibility for creating a new paradigm. In blaming others for our problems, we often avoid taking responsibility for how much we are involved in creating these problems through the choices we make. Whenever we catch ourselves playing the role of victim by blaming others (including the power elite) for everything that's wrong in our lives, we can choose to take a look inside ourselves, and to explore and take responsibility for our role in what's happening. By focusing less on blaming others, and more on improving ourselves, every one of us can make a difference both in our lives and in our world.

Avoid secrecy and encourage openness and transparency. An important way we can do this is to work together to inform friends and colleagues about the major cover-ups being hidden from the public. Then in our personal lives, when we notice ourselves keeping information from others, we can examine our motives for this secrecy. Are we withholding information out of our own self-interest, or because this is really what's best for all involved? And on a deeper level, where are we avoiding being honest with ourselves?

Move beyond polarization and the focus on "good vs. evil" and "us vs. them." Consider the possibility that all of us are doing what we believe to be right based upon our beliefs, circumstances, and upbringing. Each of us has a place in our heart that wants only to love and be loved. As we focus less on blaming and judging "them" and more on supporting the highest motive in all people – including members of the power elite – we increasingly come to see that we are all one human family, and that we can choose to transform our world by working together for the good of all.

And finally, come together in groups and communities to support each other in making these positive changes. In these groups and communities, we support each other in transforming fear into acceptance and love. We exchange information about all that is being hidden from us and explore ways to move beyond polarization. We also share our life purpose and intentions and encourage each other to live these as fully as we can. And we inspire each other to take responsibility for our lives and to be the best that we can be. When we gather in community to support each other in these intentions, we join in building a growing network of inspiration and empowerment around the planet.

These suggestions emphasize changing the collective consciousness of the world by transforming both our own personal lives and the world around us. Let us do all that we can to stop destructive behaviors of the global power elite. Yet let us not overly focus on changing the outside world without first having a solid internal foundation, lest we fall into blaming others, and into the polarizing "us vs. them" ways which only further divide us. By reminding ourselves that the most powerful change starts inside each one of us, we can develop more balance and strength to then work towards positive change out in the world.

As we change ourselves from the inside out, we send ripples of inspiration and healing out into the world. By joining together in groups and communities to support each other in this, those ripples become waves which are powerfully helping to create a new paradigm for all of us.
