Give Me My Crown Back - Santosh Jha (top novels to read .txt) 📗

body-mind mechanism, which creates consciousness, is essentially, innately and until trained well, reactionary, stupid, hypocritical, selfish and aggressive. The 21st century pragmatism of Human Dignity shall rather invest in scientific factuality about the educational and training requirements of different individuals with specially designed knowledge dispensation methodologies. It shall accept human stupidities-hypocrisies; personal as well as collective and then proceed onto delegate responsibilities of education and training to scientists, rather than believe in and delegate power and authority to a bunch of another set of same stupidities-hypocrisies in politics and governments. It shall believe in educating and training of individuals to understand Reality in its Holism and lead their own welfare and empowerment, rather than foolishly hoping that state and governments would do it for them. Naturally, this shall require a very critical element of ‘Integration’ of different domains of collective human knowledge, which is hugely missing now. We talk about it later.

All these realities we shall discuss in two parallel streams in this eBook. First is the detailed deliberation of stupidities, hypocrisies and calamitous consequences of current politics, stupidities of state and oligarchic governance systems, along with the nexus with economic structures and practices they have sustained since decades to destroy the dignity and sovereignty of individual, making life hell for him or her. Secondly, there is elaboration of the scientific-objective basis of people rule and de-empowerment of state-governments in 21st century. In the light of irrefutable objective logic of modern science about Reality, Human Consciousness and Cognitive science et al, we shall prove how and why the true sovereign, the people Must Get Its Crown Back and for what novel, true and right purposes. All futilities and utilities, all rights and wrongs, all good and bad etc shall be decided and installed on the basis of modern contemporary Science Of Reality, nothing else!

There shall also be details of the possible alternative model of politics, governance, administration and economic prudence that need to be put in place, replacing the current dispensations to install Human Dignity and sovereignty of individual. We talk about them in broad principles as small details can always be filled in, depending upon requirements at grassroots levels of operations. However, the most difficult part of the eBook shall be, ‘How To Go About It’. But we shall try… and, we may succeed if you all align with the idea and lend support to it. Do step in for a novel experience and experiment, welcome…

CHAPTER 1

The history of humanity stands as a rather precarious, sketchy and partial documentation of the evolution of humanity towards understanding of Reality of self and the milieus it lived in. Human history however, happens to be a common and shared record-book of culpability of humanity at large and minority of powerful leaders and intellectuals in particular, in failing to invest sufficiently in the much required mechanism and processes of deciphering of Reality. Naturally, human history is infinite saga of immense and variegated hypocrisies, stupidities and even insanities. That is probably why there is this primary need to look back at history of human stupidities and hypocrisies, before we actually take up the much required task in hand to eliminate them.

Thankfully, the right and sufficient human investment to decipher Reality began to happen in 19th century, matured in the 20th century and now at the start of third decade of 21st century, this continued and sustained investment has facilitated the broad but actual understanding of Reality of human ‘self’ and its milieus, including the cosmos. This singularly presents the case of big changes in contemporary politics, economy, state craft and governance. Hypocrisies should no more have another lease of life anymore as contemporary human wisdom about objective Reality leaves little leeway for it. In contemporary world of critical knowledge of Reason and Reality, only objective, logical, measurable, provable and irrevocable science can stand the test of finality.

In the same breathe, it needs to be accepted that even today, a very critical element of human wisdom is still missing, which should be the urgent agenda in 21st century. It is a rather deplorable dimension of human problem that all advanced and objective scientific knowledge and wisdom still remain poorly linked and shabbily integrated. It has been accepted by modern intellectuals that in an ideologically and philosophically divided world of contemporary humanity, it is too difficult to convince people about the collective, assimilative and common wisdom of scientifically objective knowledge, which is the singular uniting factor for over 7 billion people. It is truly sad and deplorable that massive advancement and critical knowledge in the fields of physics, mathematics and artificial intelligence et al have little or no reflection and influence on statecraft, governance and politics. Inter-disciplinary integration and to and fro linkages are hugely missing. This reflects the lack of integration and assimilation of collective human knowledge. For that matter, even economy and psychology seem to be not fully aligned to scientific advancements. It is only natural that they have not reached the average individual’s knowledge pool or what has reached is pseudo-science or just the technology part of it. This is unpardonable for humanity.

Scientists also believe that despite huge advancements in objective and proven knowledge of collective humanity, not much has reached to people because of the failure to integrate all knowledge and make them available for easy sharing. The troubling aspect is that collective contemporary knowledge of humanity has successfully arrived at the holism of wisdom, which explains Reality in definitive terms, but it has neither reached average individual nor this objective and holistic knowledge has yet evolved an interface to make easy understanding for everyone.

For example, it is not easy even for a space scientist to understand the logistic intricacies of a smart phone yet, even an illiterate person can and does easily operate a smart phone. It is simply because the smart phone has the easy and very user-friendly operational interface that cuts across intelligence levels of different segments of people. This is a great example of the power of collective wisdom of humanity and the most brilliant part is that it is now hugely successfully shared wisdom, across the globe. This is also a happy reflection on the potential of contemporary collective wisdom, if it is integrated well, shared diligently and interfaced successfully with masses. This sure is the domain that has the potential of grassroots and empirical empowerment of the sovereignty of common people, to take the issue of Human Dignity back in their own hands and run it on the basis of the common creed of universal jurisprudence, structured on scientific factuality of Reality.

When we insist that 21st century must be the age of arriving of humanity, it is because of this potential of the collective contemporary wisdom. From this perspective, when we relook the long tumultuous history of humanity, we can clearly understand the genetics of the troubles humanity had, in private as well as in public domains. The core trouble was that humanity was divided on the basis of identities, ideologies and perceptions and they still are. But, the critical difference between earlier centuries and the 21st century is that now we have definitive and irrefutable collective knowledge of Reality, which now installs the definitive futility and stupidity of diversity of identities, ideologies and perceptions. Reality is singular and so has to be the human reality for all. This knowledge is now available and logically irrevocable.

The second critical difference is that whatever collective knowledge was available and in whatever shade of Reality, it was not integrated and shared and it is still not. However, now we have the collective potential and ability to attain integration and sharing, which was not possible then. Universality and objectivity of Reality is the singular common creed, identity and perception for all humanity and this can now be established through possible integration and assimilation of all fragments of human knowledge. A unified humanity with singular Reality for all is a definite probability and contemporary collective knowledge has the wherewithal to attain this dream idealism in coming years.

That is why it is an insistence of singular reason and logic that today, the maturing of the 21st century is the time to dump the old, archaic and obsolete structures and functions of current politics, governance and administration, which has failed to uphold the necessities of Human Dignity and give back the true and real sovereign, the individual the crown it was supposed to have but never had in the long history of humanity. It is the time to write afresh, the universal common code of conduct of human affairs in global perspective, backed by objective, singular and irrefutable scientific knowledge of Reality of collective humanity.

Human history, despite being a rather patchy and partial documentation of past, has huge significance for deciphering what, where, why and how collective humanity went wrong and what right things could not get the mainstream support. The totality or holism of history of mankind is a sad yet powerful reflection of how inception, pregnancy, deliverance and infancy of knowledge leave long and scary trails of human misery, annihilation and perpetual struggle. In the colossal cosmos, all lives within this vast expanse of Earth and huge challenges of life-living in ambient milieus are not something that even the best of potentials of an average human being could ingest and process sanely. It always takes the collective wisdom of humanity to bail out people in their life-living struggle. Nothing can help but a singular, objective, irrefutable and universal acceptance of Reality. This could not happen in the past as only now collective human knowledge has it. It is just an impending correction that all domains of human knowledge now need to be integrated, aligned and assimilated so that the Holism of Reality could become a singular universal code and creed for all humans, anywhere on the globe.

The long history of humanity tells us very emphatically that in the absence of this singular universal and objective knowledge of Reality, humanity always suffered by perpetuating the conflict and battles against each other. Humanity also suffered hugely because lack of singular knowledge of Reality led to plethora of man-made stupidities and hypocrisies, which humanity could not decipher. And this in turn created such structures and functions of solutions and management of troubles, which themselves were seeded in stupidities and hypocrisies. The two most important structures-functions, which caused most agonies and killed the most, are Religion and Politics.

The long and dreadful history of evolution and entrenchment of Religion and Politics in human lives is calamitous testimony of how this singular ignorance about ‘Reality’ messed up the lives of billions of people. It is a sad commentary on how ignorance about ‘Reality’ created two Mega Monsters out of the very propitious and prosperous milieu of Culture, which essentially was a natural evolution of geographical elements of ‘Reality’. The contemporary crisis of Humanity is essentially the finality of the progression of these two suicidal human creations of Religion and Politics. Both are archaic, obsolete now and are rotting vestiges of lack of knowledge of humanity about Reality, how it is appropriated, how it expresses itself and how it plays out through human body-mind ‘media’. This needs to be understood in detail. Then only we can lead our way to an alternative of both, which is based on contemporary scientific knowledge of Reality and its manifestations in human world. We shall discuss and deliberate on every detail of this later in this eBook.

No doubt, in the long history of humanity, there were individuals and also some groups of people, who helped humanity in understanding their lives and their milieus well but, they were insufficient or only partial reflection on the Holism of Reality. This fractional or fractured knowledge helped but also added loads of confusion and conflicts in societies and people’s minds. It happens primarily because part knowledge is innately filled with abstract ideas and faith structures for their validity, which naturally stands in conflict with competing abstractions and faith structures. Moreover, scattered and un-integrated
