The Spiritual Promise of Democracy

This is one of my favorite things to explore and talk about. This essay highlights the similarities and the immense importance of two of my favorite things about the world: spirituality and democracy.

My deep, sincere love and relentless passion for democracy and seeing the Will of the People implemented at all levels of government is well documented in the Voter Directed Democracy book. Democracy in comparison to any authoritarian government system is a much better political system for any population of humans. Whatever we can do to improve, advance, modernize, and evolve our democratic republics in order to more precisely and objectively define the real Will of the People and see our collective will and desires as voters implemented at all levels of government for every single issue is also ideal.

Real, true, honest, objective, collaborative, cooperative, and transparent Voter Directed democratic republics at all levels of government are the BEST humanity can do for our political systems. Anything less democratic than honest and transparent, modern and evolved, collaborative and cooperative Voter Directed democratic republics is an objectively worse and more authoritarian form of government.

Having the objective Will of the People, the objective will of voters implemented for every single issue at all levels of government will create a truly amazing society in so many ways. To name a few systems, what happens when our education, energy, transportation, communication, defense, tax, healthcare, land, air, water, and food systems at all levels of government are evolved and improved to reflect the true Will of the People? How much will the human condition improve? How much unnecessary human suffering will be eradicated?

Real, Voter Directed, and honest democracy is also perpetually amazing because it sources knowledge, wisdom, expertise, perspective, and opinions from the greatest number of people. This is also why authoritarian thought, action, or inaction are so often immensely destructive and violent. Real, honest democracy is sourcing its conclusions, decisions, and knowledge from ALL voters, whereas anything authoritarian is only representative of what a small group of humans want and think is best for their society.

To be successful democractic republics should be relentlessly learning and implementing the Will of the People, aka the will of the voters, aka the will of the COLLECTIVE HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS for every single issue at all levels of government. Act after act, day after day the collective will of human consciousness must be sourced and implemented in order for any democratic republic at any level of government to obtain consistent political justice and be considered great.

The theory of democracy and democratic republics becomes even more amazing and beautiful when you understand that democracy, when successful and politically just, aligns our government- our governing mentalities, ideologies, and systems- with our collective human consciousness. In other words, implementing the Will of the People aligns the institutions responsible for ALL social, political, and economic outcomes, successes, and failures (our political system) with the best ideas that our collective human consciousness has to offer. This is the spiritual promise of successful democratic republics.

You really have to understand how powerful fully implementing the objectively and transparently determined collective will of human consciousness can be. Successful implementation of voter directed democratic republics creates a real pathway forward towards true spiritual ascension at a collective, community, state, and COUNTRY level.

We must first work to evolve beyond the evil, fear-based, party-driven, and authoritarian belief systems that result in individual and collective thoughts, emotions, and actions of greed, violence, and hate. We can evolve individually and collectively in this way by choosing belief systems of Goodness that are courage-based and result in thoughts, emotions, and actions of discipline, justice, and wisdom.  

Then, once evil has been sufficiently evolved into Goodness individually and collectively, we can then evolve further individually and collectively by choosing belief systems of Wholiness that are gratitude-based and result in thoughts, emotions, and actions of love for all, compassion for all, and inclusive community.

This individual and collective spiritual evolution and ascension is very possible when we have a political system, a governing structure that consistently implements the real Will of the People/the will of our collective human consciousness at all levels of government for every single issue.

Thank you.
