Posting to third eye bloglet - Page 41 - MY : 27th April, 2007. The date-wise archives of third eye bloglet about eyes, mind, sex, science, and society turned into web pages. Page 41 makes a real interesting reading:  It is 'MY' that the root of the problem lies in. Our world gets narrowed down when we add this word to it. Private property takes hold of what our life stands for. And then it holds the reins of all the actions our energy focuses on. We turn slaves to our property that we EARN here on earth.  My world gets limited to my money, future, home, career, life, and at the most to my country; but always at the cost of others. Sometimes I wonder if Marx was right when he said that private property was an evil that the human society had got trapped in. Although I disagree with him when it comes to his philosophy of materialism or his (at least in his name) coercive politics! But isn't his utopia of the withering away of state, and of private property along, a beautiful piece of art in itself? O my God, who else could have created it but for the man of HIS caliber only! Even if it is a wingless flight in the high skies of imagination only, who can say with guarantee that it may not become the truth of tomorrow? Airplane was once a wingless flight too, in the minds of a few cynical poets only! It's not the scientist but the poet inside me that is burbling so. But why not the scientist in me also should give an analytical thought to it? Private property has not always been there since eternity. It was quite late in the history of human civilization that we started owning things individually. Before that everything used to belong to the whole tribe as such. It all started when we learned seeding crops and reaping them. Before that we used to gather fruits and hunt animals in a group together; so whatever was there, belonged to the whole group as such. Growing crops was an individual occupation. So people occupied individual lands and started growing individual crops that belonged to the growers only. But the social life was still going along on community patterns. The man and the woman were not the husband and wife yet but only two different individuals in their own independent capacities who interacted together to give birth to the children. And then came the question of inheritance. The woman had no problem. She very well knew who her kids were, and so she could easily will her belongings and her property to them before she died. But the man could not do so. He didn't know who his kids were. Even the woman didn't know for sure who fathered them. And then the muscular, mighty man issued the commandment conspiring against the freedom of woman that said so: The woman shall sleep with one man only all through her life and give birth to HIS children only who all shall carry HIS name only and not hers. Thus took birth the concept of property in human interactions as well, turning interactions into relationships of possession upon each other and turning life into business! Business earned money. Money needed protection. Protection needed army. Army needed action. Action needed attack and not mere passive defense. I wonder if all the countries on earth have only defense ministries in their governments, where on earth does the offence come from! Army must attack or it gets rusted. That gave rise to the concept of the nation. The nation gave birth to the concept of patriotism in order to justify its existence. Then came wars along with the pride of winning the world and establishing empires. Even today we see these empires in a less feudal form of business monopolies extending beyond the boundaries of nations, trying to turn the world into a global village. But the nations will still not melt their boundaries fused along their borders into this so-called global village! The world has only turned a business village, not a political one! We are still keeping our boundaries intact. Shall we catch the bug where it started the whole chain, right at the root of it? THE PRIVATE PROPERTY! Why should things be owned at all! Either by you or by me! We simply need using them, so let us use them as and when we require so! Why do we need owning them? Can't our so highly developed computer technology manage all this in a fully democratic and still a fully disciplined manner? All through the world! It is MY WORLD after all! The whole of it! It is YOUR WORLD as well! The whole of it! Let us do something about the whole of it, together! I invite you to subscribe to my weekly E-zine titled Third Eye-zine.
