World Without Empire! Amen, Amen.
The last words in the Christian doxology are "world without end, amen, amen." But to create an ever-thriving world without end, we need to create a world without empire. As a first step in creating world peace, the United States needs to dismantle its empire. It must close down its 883 military bases in 160 countries, bring all the troops back home, and just defend its borders to be a model nation for the world. What is needed is a new worldview, a spiritual renaissance or paradigm shift that transcends scientific or reductionist materialism and lifestyle materialism.
On an international level, the Earth Constitution is an excellent model for a democratic world government. This would be the opposite of a new world order autocratically imposed from the top-down by the wealthiest one percent. On a national level--in order to maximize democracy--we can promote the equal empowerment of the 7 largest political parties in every nation.
On an individual level--even if world conditions keep getting worse--we can find personal liberation, enlightenment, and our true purpose through advaita vedanta, yoga philosophy, Christian mysticism, and other expressions of the perennial philosophy. Our highest Self, which is infinite love, is beyond time, space, and causation. It is beyond anything the mind can conceive or the senses perceive. We will live in a much better world as more people attain self-realization or self-actualization. Instead of trying desperately to change others, the best thing we can do is Be the loving and joyful peace we want to see in the world.
