My goal is:  "I want to contribute to the shifting of the balance of power from people who have bad ideas to people who have good ideas". - This is clearly an agenda, which goes beyond the scope of my personal existence. It is my attempt to take responsibility for the world I live in, express my desire and my right to shape life - in collaboration with the collective. It is a multi-centered, holographic existence.

 Inner peace and clarity and joy are essential. They must be relatively stable to even begin such course of action. 
 
The teachings of the past pertain to development of the individual and the search for inner learning and experiencing, the internal quest for well-being, bliss, peace, whatever a person needs at the time..

Personally I have experienced that this inner learning culminates with the integration of dualism in the non-dual space. Non-dual space is "NOT" the alternative to dualism or the opposite or outside of or beyond it. Therefore it is not "better" or "desirable". It is inclusive. That is all. And to leave it at that, has made me aware of fragmentation, as Krishnamurti would have termed it. It has raced me through all emotions simultaneously until the center of bliss emerged.

 I would like Buddhists and other traditional teachers of past and present to begin considering group dynamics. In the past it was appropriate to focus on the individual. I believe, now is the time to look outside as well. Learn about group. A group is more than an accumulation of individuals. Also there is life not only on this planet but in the entire universe, in different densities. I have come to hold it possible that our situation here on earth is reflected, maintained and influenced by this extended neighborhood.

I am not concerned about increasing my individual peace and joy. As I wrote, I experience nurture and strength from the inner dimension. I am concerned about shaping outer reality. Too many kids starving, too many men exploited too many women enslaved, too many animals - and people - tortured, species extinguished, too many elements disturbed for me to undividedly enjoy living in this sensory and satisfying third dimensional environment. 

Therefore: "I want to contribute to the shifting of the balance of power from people who have bad ideas to people who have good ideas".
