It is not the coranavirus and the panic surrounding it that is to blame, but the systemic crisis that has struck all of society.
We live in an era of systemic crisis. Systemic – means that all elements of our society are dysfunctional. Politics and economics are just the tip of the iceberg of problems that we have not noticed or do not want to notice. The crisis began to ripen in the early ’60s, along with the sexual revolution.
Any revolution overturns a person’s consciousness. This one did, too – a man decided that he wanted to live for pleasure, to enjoy himself without responsibility (by the way, modern rulers are the children of that very revolution). As a result, the importance of the family began to decline. Children began to be planned and “bred” like pets. And they responded with consumerism and indifference. Children also want to enjoy themselves: no need for education, and parents who have served their time in retirement homes.
These crises led to the problem of the relationship between a man and a woman in general. The woman no longer needs the man, the man no longer needs the woman. The unclaimed man is a problem of technological progress. And, as a consequence, a crisis in basic science: not a single serious hypothesis has been proposed in the last fifty years. This means that the crisis will soon spread to applied science and then to the development of technology.
In parallel to these problems, a financial crisis was maturing. For the first time in history, money stopped working. And really, if people don’t want to take responsibility for their future, why should money take it? After all, money is the equivalent of our relationship. As we treat each other, so money treats us.
Obviously, the crisis is global, it covers all areas of our lives. But is it systemic?
We live between the two forces of nature: giving and receiving, connecting and dividing, plus and minus. Everything is subject to these two forces and is in perfect harmony. The slightest deviation from the balance – and already a completely different universe. The Giving Force constantly replenishes our material world with energy, so that electrons spin, the universe expands, everything on Earth flourishes, new species appear, and humans are perfected. We perceive it from the position of a receiving force only, we do not see the whole picture of development. Therefore, our understanding of evolution is that it occurs in leaps and bounds as a result of one crisis or another. Droughts, epidemics, wars, revolutions, etc. – not spontaneous events, but the result of the same positive force of nature.
So we come to the twentieth year of the twenty-first century. Personal freedom and enjoyment of life became the main priorities of society. With this kind of morality, we are unable to make a qualitative evolutionary leap. I.e. the receiving force has reached its developmental limit and is unable to compensate for the additional energy. This is the systemic crisis. We don’t know what we want except pleasure. Connections between people are bankrupt, the economy is bankrupt, politics of all stripes are bankrupt. What we can still do is destroy all life in a thermonuclear war.
At the forefront of history comes the giving, altruistic, unifying force of nature. How do you work with it? We are mired in selfishness, and we don’t have the faintest idea which side to approach her from.
At this critical moment, the coronavirus shows up and sends us all home. It’s as if he’s telling us, “Sit down, calm down, zero in on all previous connections and knowledge, and think about it.” He stopped us at the edge of a precipice and won’t let us go any further. How to go on, we have yet to learn. But our ego is totally against it. It strives with all its might to return to its former idle world.
There is no going back to the pre-coronavirus era. We have to accept the new rules of the game and learn to live in a new world.
