A Philosophy of Universality — Ebook

Presentation

The importance of developing a collective consciousness.

This book is a real how-to manual to help us overcome our limited and self-centered viewpoints to broaden our awareness to the community. And not only human but also all the kingdoms that share this planet with us and far beyond. It is not about giving up our own development but making it useful to as many people as possible. From there we can finally participate in a universal fraternity.

‘Each individual must work for his own development, for his own enrichment, provided that he does not do it only for himself, but for the good of the community. At that point, we no longer spoke only of collectivity but of fraternity. The community is not yet the brotherhood. Fraternity is a community where there is real cohesion, because each individual works consciously for the good of all. In reality, there are three categories of individuals in a society that correspond to three levels of consciousness: those who want to work alone, isolated, withdrawn; those who have understood the advantages they can derive from collective life and who come together, but only because they have an interest in it, without knowing or loving each other well; and finally those who learn to live more fraternally by deepening more and more in themselves the consciousness of universality.’
