How can people be persuaded to make a change in their behavior on a mass scale? How do we induce society to change?
The case in point for me is to change from tolerating all the wars and crime that go on in our world to wanting – no, lovingly demanding – a return to peace.
In that new world, I venture to guess that the only crime would be to break the peace.
I think society changes when it’s inspired to do so.
Circumstances combine with the right personalities to produce inspiration at a time of necessity – and society moves.
Winston Churchill electrified the British nation with his bold reply to Hitler’s “peace overtures” in July 1940. Britain would never surrender. The British nation shifted from fearful uncertainty to bulldog determination.
At the opposite end of the spectrum, Mahandas Gandhi electrified India with his peaceful protests and civil non-cooperation. Indians were led to abandon violent protest and take up peaceful protest. And they used it to secure their independence.
If the world is to shift from making war to demanding peace, I believe there’ll need to be speakers of global stature to put the world’s sentiments and longings into words. Leaders will have to make the case for the world’s weariness of war, violence, and killing.
SaLuSa once referred to the need for new leadership:
“Mankind is being confronted with conditions that are becoming intolerable, and they will continue until you are forced to deal with them. Peaceful solutions can be found, but it requires the will of those that lead you to seek more acceptable and lasting solutions.
“You can no longer continue in the old ways, and in some countries it will require a new Leadership to come forward to direct Mankind towards peaceful and acceptable answers. Part of this change of direction comes from you the people who wield much more power than you imagine. When the thought form for change grows it becomes a powerful tool that influences the Human population.” (1)
Archangel Michael said to me in a personal reading that John Kennedy would reincarnate as a peace ambassador. And he identified Barack Obama as playing another key role. (2) I think of people of their stature as being what are needed to focus our concerns and speak for the world.
I consider that position vacant at the moment. Many people speak for a nation, but no one I’m aware of speaks for the world community, for humanity as a whole.
I wonder what Werner Erhard is up to these days. This would be a stellar assignment for him.
Or for someone new and completely unknown, from the younger generation perhaps…? You’ll find us more than ready to pass the torch.
