(Some material on Illusions: https://www.philosocom.com/post/the-two-types-of-illusions
Life is an illusion. More specifically, it is a system of illusion. The value of it on Earth is only measured by our heads and our unified perception of reality. One that does not necessarily deviate from our own unique perspectives, but one that can allow us to follow our common goals. To proudly have our families filled not only with love, but also to enter our own purposes in existence. Perception is, in other words, but a means to an end. A tool that can have different degrees of functionality, in relation to our ambitions.
And by being alive, we develop these illusions using the system that is our very lives. Thoughts, emotions, concepts. They are merely the constructs of the system we're in—the system of consciousness. They help us survive, but most importantly, they allow us to cooperate with other "system-users," so to speak—with other human beings. And using these collaborations, we are able to achieve things we wouldn't be able to accomplish by ourselves.
To some, the reach of this reality today is not working as efficiently as for others. This can be attributed to whatever individual traits and issues being a feature. For example, the socially inept may have a tougher time to cooperate with others, while people who are more social by nature (AKA, intuitively), may have little-to-no such problems at all. In fact, the latter may be able to partake and organize even bigger collaborations.
People deserve a convenient "game," a trustworthy game of their own soul. To clear the distance between society's politics and religion, they need to be balanced and profitable to nature, as well as people and animals. This is immensely important to the fabric of reality that we have been able to build and sustain. After all, we do not live in a vacuum. We live in shared areas, in organized collectives, and most importantly—in a single world which we all inhabit. Our resources are limited, and he or she who disregards others, may disregard their own potential, and the very world that allows them to live within it.
Every organization should behave as a family, like a beehive. Where order can sustain intellects from all the fields of industry, sales, and prices eventually. We can prosper together better as a unified structure, that is bound to law and documented by deals of sorts. Deals like transactions, agreements, and so on. It may work for all relevant future advancements in any field.
The tower we all climb, AKA, our shared reality and our ambitions within it, is relevant to control the inner machinations of our being. And for that intention in mind, we need to develop openness to other beings, and accept a unified idea to sustain both ends. Without these mutual collaborations, we would either become incompetent in our functioning, or simply force ourselves on others to do our bidding. In some cases, the latter leads to slavery.
The peace deals between countries that may have market share and confrontation on their scale, may serve as examples to what I've explained thus far. But if we want to eliminate the "they" part of an ideal structure of a union, both parties need to share a market. The need for competition is in our DNA, but we reach for the stars, our stars, our reality, our fears, if we collaborate further with one another.
Then, we will be open to accept both the blessings and hardships of this reality. This illusion-system is expressed through the media, for example, to make the people involved in viewing ratings. The viewer must not see it as a win for this system, or the illusion of fantasy will be greatly compromised. In a way, it's like losing one's innocence. Like when you realize Santa Claus isn't real.
Doing so can be compared to the satisfaction of watching a movie, while seeing how it ends, at the same time. Your perception of reality plays a significant role in the way you experience it. It's why some people are easily surprised and amazed, while others are not. Our philosophies, conscious or otherwise, can dictate how we operate in this reality. This system that I'm talking about is essentially an operating system. A platform of applications, so to speak.
To realize your goals, you must have the same order of gravity between you and the network of others. Trimming out the context we don't want to show, does not resolve the main problem of unification. It can, however, calm down moments of conflict and power struggles.
More difficult topics can be postponed for later, but they must be dealt with eventually to allow for better cooperation between all parties. Otherwise, the main issue, and the need for sharing them in common, will not be resolved. Topics change over time to fit the needs that life has to offer in the future, but there are some steady issues that must be preserved to keep humanity in check. Some of them, after all, may be ready to be updated at any time by our changing reality.
When power is used for the collective good, it gives peace and order. However, when it is used aggressively, it can rewrite our shared system. The balance between power that is used for the collective good and power that can only eat an organization from within through the competitive struggle to the top is our main topic now.
Those who are chosen to handle this topic in person must be responsible for controlling it and keeping it in line on a regular basis. We are a complex web of difference-holders, and the strains that are currently in progress show that balancing deserves to be worked on. Therefore, it must not be disturbed by additional strains, as they could only tip the balance of power within partnerships of any kind.
Remember, the harmony and order that power creates is only a means to an end—and that end is our hopes and dreams, both individual and collective. Willing or not, the preservation of order is key to getting things done.
To make the topic of guarding the balance profitable, we give a mindset to communize common ideas. Giving a mindset and a system is what gives the narrators the responsibility for the topic, both economically and organizationally, with all members involved. The stray must not be stopped, as order can be corrupted into oppression and abuse of power. However, if it cannot sustain itself, and the group leaders abandon the post, the old idea must first have a compatible replacement that meets the needs of all recorded members who are the investors.
The "parliament" of illusion is a changing source of ideas that fit themselves to the needs of itself. However, it must have censors to be able to sense a regrettable change before it erupts, knowing how to lead it through to gradual change and the shifting of the boat. We are all in the same boat.
