DESIRES AND DUTIES
Desires, when satisfied, benefit exclusively the desirer, while the fulfillment of duties and obligations produce group benefits, they are always impersonal, even if we are personally offended by this.
We experience this reality as an antagonism between the pleasure of desires and the effort to fulfill our duties, and this is because our consciousness has not yet completed the transition from self-centeredness to collectiveness.
There is no way for our humanity to evolve by clinging to self-centeredness and privileging individualistic isolation, instead of promoting group consciousness and the joy of knowing that, through the fulfillment of duties, harmony is added to social relationships, even if sacrificing a little our self-centered desires in the name of something greater, in the name of something that neither begins nor ends with us as individuals.
The transfer of individual self-centered consciousness to group consciousness is the most current thing in terms of the evolution of our kingdom, and all the problems we witness and participate in, directly or indirectly, have their root in how much we resist doing this transference, insisting on continuing to delay evolution with our desired self-centeredness.
