AN END TO WARS

AN END TO WARS

We all empathize with the victims of the ongoing war between Ukraine and Russia and most of us dread a possible WW III. The basic cause of war is division. If we are one, or we see ourselves to be, whom would we wage war at?

The ideological conception of biological division of human, with regard the division into a man, or a woman, is first and foremost, the genesis of conflicts. Biologically, we have a man and a woman and that implies that there are differences. So a man expect something different in the family or marriage and a woman expect something different too. There seems to be no meeting points of the needs or agreement between these genders. This starts marital, family and by extension civil wars. That biological differences have translated into the creation of divisive systems, which have perpetuated conflicts and wars through millennia.

Religion divides us, Culture divides us, Skin colour divides us, and the complete spectrum of divisive systems established by humans. If we could dissolve completely this whole idea of gender, to start with, such that there is no man or woman, but human beings, or if we dissolve every sect or differences, such that there is no Buddhist or Christian, etc., then there would be no such thing as war. The only reality that we must make conscious is that we are all humans and suffer or benefit the same fates of life. So we suffer together and benefit together. No divisions whatsoever. That would completely end wars.
