The popular notions of bigotry are too limited. As a result its essential nature, its source, is obscured.
Bigotry is a physiological state. It is not just a cultural or idealogical conviction. The laudable suppression of racial bigotry has not healed the essence or source of bigotry. As a result the physiological basis of bigotry emerges in other forms. What was once racial bigotry has become, for example, political bigotry. Hateful intolerance of opposing political viewpoints is now the self righteously indignant justification of bigotry in its latest form.
When hatred exists in the physiology of people, it will find a way to surface upon others… to be unleashed upon others… until the hate causing stresses and strains in the physiology are removed. Proper meditation roots out such stresses and strains in the physiology.
Poignant. Thank you!
This message is so timely and I think really insightful.
Wonderful blog.
It is very interesting that bigotry / hatred will come out unless the root cause is addressed through proper meditation. The world so needs Surya Ram.
Wow, very interesting!
Thank you for this eye-opening blog.
Interesting, that makes sense.
The root of all evil…
The razor’s edge is hard enough to navigate without your consciousness being put into a box or two…Once occulted, it’s so easy to become spellbound by what is presented to us…The vultures are just waiting for us to fall for the deception…
Thank you for your love, protection, and teachings.
Interesting observation that racial bigotry is being sublimated through political views. I can’t help but notice how polarized politically the country is while simultaneously espousing great strides in social tolerance (ie race, gender, culture, physical appearance, religion…)
This makes so much sense!
I have come to understand that the state of physiology really dictates our behaviors. It’s so important to find an effective way to purify our physiology.
So true… I have found myself more interested in the presidential races then previous elections and you can’t help but feel all the hate and confusion.
This is an important distinction – perhaps it could be the title of this blog:
“Bigotry is a physiological state.”
Gosh, I was wondering what was the least harmful way possible that physiological hatred could come out… racism versus political entrenchment versus sexism versus religious intolerance, etc…. but there is not really any way that violent hatred can come out and have it be non-harmful! I agree that undermining the vitriol and cooling it all via Surya Ram works best and is safest….
