I don't know that I'll ever fully figure this out, that I'll
be able to reconcile that on the one hand, it is absolutely the central
function, as it's the central function of a Dr. or research pharmacologists, to
find the cure that they're after, it's central to the potent activist, the
insanely humane Unviolent warrior, to figure out the moral disease, and to
become the embodiment of the antidote, as has been fully explored in other
essays. But as with that pharmacologists
also Dr., upon discovering and creating the cure, the antidote, they are not at
liberty to force the consumption of that cure on anyone.
In much the same way, and more so, the Unviolent warrior,
the Dr. of sanity in the midst of mass insanity, upon finding the cure, such as
the cure for global Armageddon has found Loving, here (see Global Warming's
Death. Fast.), it is for Loving, and those who come
alongside him, to widely promote that cure, to widely extol the virtues of
taking that cure, to implore, to a point, that all individuals should become
that antidote, should become that cure, and thereby be cured themselves, but
never to cross the line of applying the slightest pressure to any individual to
take that cure. They cannot go as far as
the medical doctor in pressuring, in imploring, because it's only the heart.
it's only the conscience that can take the cure, that can become the cure, that
can join a death fast, or go to prison as Tim Christopher or Daniel (?) McGowan
have (ELF, "If a Tree Falls). It's
only the heart that can do that, and the heart is only engaged when it is
totally empowered. And when it is
fighting external pressure, head and flesh are also empowered, so the cure of
becoming the antidote, of joining the death fast, or other similarly
self-devotional, paying the price with one's life for one's life for the
salvation of one's brothers; it's only possible to take, and at the same time
be that cure, when it's totally one's heart that has made the decision;
completely pure of external pressure.
Wouldn't it be widely agreed that it makes perfect sense for
a suitor to implore the beloved - Please marry me, We really should get
married, We must get married, We have to get married, We have to be a couple, We have to be a partnership.... Makes perfect sense doesn't it? Does it not also make sense that when the
other agrees, Uh,Oh, This is wonderful! I'm so glad you agree! But we need to think about this,
correct? By way of backing off or of
timidity? No. By way of creating the space and time, for
the heart, to be sure.
And so it is with the Unviolent warrior - entirely about
discovering the moral cure, the cure to the mass insanity, becoming the
antidote, which is to become cured themselves.
If a cancer cell can be cured, and become healthy again, it goes from profoundly
neglecting its duty to the body, to a complete re-devotion to the wellbeing of
the body. And this is the heart of
what the Unviolent warrior first cures themselves of, and then becomes a mass
cure, or potential mass cure for.
Any amount of pressure, any amount of forcing, aside from
crossing a moral boundary that should not be crossed, is self-defeating. Only the heart, all by itself, completely
alone in the space it needs, can find in itself, whether or not it's true for
that individual, that they should marry another specific individual. It is only the heart, finally, alone, finally
free of any external pressure, that can decide whether a death fast should be
joined to save humanity.
So the Unviolent warrior has two roles - bringing the
marriage partner right to the point of yes, and then allowing complete
uninterrupted space, that the one that's been brought to the altar, has the
complete freedom to find the truth within themselves, as to whether that
marriage should take place.
