All Wars Could Have Been Avoided with One Fact Hidden by Our Senses.

See this content in the original post

All wars could have been avoided if our basic education included just one course entitled “How Everything Exists”.

The current educational system does not address how all things including oneself exist. Phenomena certainly exist, the question is how?. Do they exist the way we perceive an experience them? Thus far education consists of learning words/names/labels for various living beings including oneself and the rest of phenomena, but not learning anything about how they exist. It turns out that not learning about how things exist is the only reason we experience problems and negativities, and our World is full of injustice, crime, greed, and wars. Why is not learning how things exist so detrimental to our personal and World peace and happiness? It is because all living beings and other phenomena do not exist the way we perceive them, experience them, and believe they do.

By not knowing how things exist, schools perpetuate a false point of view that all living beings and other phenomena exist as their own beings, the way they appear to our minds. For anything to be existing as own-being, each would have to be a singular entity and not a product of something else and its essence. However, in reality, all living beings and other phenomena do not have own-being as nothing is a singular entity and everything is a product of something else and its essence. Yet we believe and insist through current education that they do.

All living beings and phenomena are not singular and each is a product of something else and its essence and each is dependent upon many factors, including the mind that conceptualizes them. 

The current educational system fails to recognize that even though all living beings and things appear to have own-being (own self), they don’t exist that way. As a result, we unconsciously maintain the false idea and belief in our own being (ego) which is a fabrication of our ignorant mind because it is neither discoverable nor can be proven. This results in education that is detrimental to people and the World, as it enforces and promotes division, and competition, which leads to fear, hatred, racism, greed and all kinds of power abuse including war. Consequently, our current private affairs, business practices, government, law enforcement, and military excursions cause further damage to our world and all its inhabitants that are identical to us.

Isn’t time we place a course in our schools named How Everything Exists that would eradicate all personal and World problems forever? The choice is ours. Try this free Android app called The Peace Booster to see how easy it is to end and prevent wars.
