Civilization ... What Civilization?
Civilization ... What Civilization?
Author(s): Henryk SkolimowskiSubject(s): Philosophy
Published by: Instytut Filozofii i Socjologii Polskiej Akademii Nauk
Keywords: civilization; capitalism; compassionalism; cosmocracy; human nature; metaphysical crisis; corruption of intellectuals; Tribunal of Life; lesser beings; deeper wisdom.
Summary/Abstract: Philosophers are repeating their ancient mantras. Economists are intoxicating by their pseudo-theories. Politicians are just puppets manipulated by the strings held by others. Ordinary people are lost and confused. This is why our civilization is fatuous and superficial. Is it so by some sinister design? Or is it so because we lost our integrity and our inner worth? From this predicament of darkness and impotence, only spiritual light and deeper wisdom can lead to fulfillment and desirable future for all.
