Communities wishing to somehow help humanity, generally destroy it even more than they help it. If your desire to do something good for your neighbor comes out of selfishness, it destroys others.
If we did not feed Africa, there would not be a situation of permanent hunger there. We would oblige them to develop their industry instead of bringing up a generation which is unable and unwilling to do anything. We wouldn’t force these countries to fight among themselves, and we wouldn’t have the corruption that exists in the UN regarding humanitarian assistance distribution. All of those things are evil, and we see it.
The same thing happens with our relationship to nature, with the desire to cause less harm. We are developing a “green industry”, but ultimately it costs us much more. We have been spending much more energy and natural resources on this. And it appears only on the outside to be beautiful and conserving nature.
Ultimately, we must come to a correct solution that balances with nature and all of the best things and could come only from the right relations between people, and then only under the condition that it will help us to rise to the spiritual level. Nothing short of this brings good. All of our problems exist only to ensure that we realize the evil through them.
There are many systems that deal with public charity. Does this help humanity? No. Does society like this behavior? Yes. On the human level it is good – people are helping the sick and needy. Does it fix world’s problems? No. It takes a while to realize that. I hope that humanity will see it soon. There are levels of speaking and the understanding that no matter how much we have invested in a charity, it never makes good. Not for anybody!
After all, we are acting in a system which doesn’t offer the freedom of choice. You can’t bring it any good. The world follows the unchanged laws. Perhaps you put in a lot of energy, and you feel that it’s working out very well, but then, in another place, you see very bad consequences.
Sometimes we think we’ll come and fix the world, we’ll help developing some community, country or people, but then we see they are in a worse situation than before.
If Europeans didn’t come to Africa, didn’t discover this continent, it would be much better. They couldn’t have implemented their own culture, education, judicial system and so on. Look, what consequences have come from this! And the same thing has happened with South America. These are entire continents, which allegedly received a modern, advanced culture, but suffer the consequences. We still think that we should fix the world. The fact is, we need to correct ourselves.
