On Impulse Control, Human Nature, Global Family & World Peace

To be in harmony with nature
Is to be in harmony with God
But that is surely not to be in harmony with human nature, right?
Is humanity not like a disease?
Shouldn’t we try to be less in harmony with it?
But how can we be anything but human?
If animals can evolve and adapt, so can we
Sometimes it’s our animal instincts that make us disharmonious
You see we must rise above our animal impulses
Too much sex is overpopulating Earth
Too much fear and violence is causing genocides and hate crimes
Is this the kind of balancing act we want?
We live a life of extremes, you see?
And then we leave it to the scientists to scramble to save Earth from our raping it and cure sickness we created or could have at least prevented
We leave it to compassionate teachers and religious leaders to save humanity from killing itself
And yet some teachers and religious leaders reject science
And some scientists reject idealistic divine architecture
When they both carry the same burden, the load dumped on them by our self-destructive sins
The question is, how can EVERYONE do their part to bring the balance back?
To educate on connectivity in a global family of God’s children, the offspring of God’s thought?
To take the power back from the hands of the few at the top who rape soil and flesh for cash money, sexual satisfaction and selfish survival of their selves and/or their outdated exclusive groups?
Well, look at the human nature needs for solidarity and security
We want our group to be an extension of, or our family itself
We fight for a symbol of like-mindedness, like Nazis
A flag, a gang, a clan, a team, a religious sect, a caste, a tribe, a last name, a political party, a social class, a skin color, a gender, a clique, a school
All for solidarity and security, it’s “us vs. them,” like fifth grade all over again
The battle of light and dark does not make us so obviously unequal
Humans are capable of compassion, empathy and idealism
Conscientiousness is my ideal, the lovechild of faith and responsibility
Let’s find solidarity and security in the human race as a whole so we don’t have anyone to fight but ourselves—our selfish desires
The battle of light and dark takes place inside of us
Before respect of brethren comes self-respect
Before forgiveness of brethren comes self-forgiveness
Before faith in brethren comes self-faith
Before love of brethren comes self-love
Let world peace start with inner peace
Let the clarity of the forces of light reigning down heaven on earth
Start with inner clarity from reflection and positivity and faith and openness and understanding and patience and discipline and openness to compassion and wisdom and knowledge and spirituality

Dr Taylor teaches us how to attain deep inner peace - easily, simply, without drugs, anytime we want it. Forgive me for doing everything I can to be sure everyone reads this book and sees this video, but I think all of us benefit and in the larger sense, if everyone reads this, our world will benefit in a very large way.
