Oneness As A Foundation For A
            Better Tomorrow
                      1

                   LAERTIS
                FEBRUARY 2009




Laertis                          2/7/2009
Key Precept
                             2

 Jesus served us well as the model for building a
    better society for over 2,000 years. His influence
    will continue for many decades and centuries to
    come. However, “Jesus” (whether we like it or not)
    represents Organized Religion, which implies many
    negative things today --- from power abuses to mind
    manipulations. Many people (and the number
    increases every year) feel that the time has come to
    look for something different

How Things Really Work
                             3
This is where we are as a
society today --- caught
between a dying and an
emerging system


                                              The-Never-Ending
                                              Scenario promoted
                                              by the stakeholders
                                              of the old system


                                  Reality as to
                                  where the old
                                  system is going

A Sad Realization
                  4




                 Yes, there will be a lot of
                 friction, battles, and a lot of
                 spilled blood between the
                 stakeholders of the two
                 systems.

                 And yes, Oneness someday will
                 be replaced too.

                 No system is perfect or forever

Laertis                                       2/7/2009
Key Realization
                              5

 Any concept, idea, or theory that lasts 2,000+ years
    is bound to collect a lot of “baggage” (= ball and
    chain) that will make it ugly. It is no different than
    driving a bus for thousands (or millions) of miles.
    Not only it picks up a lot of dirt, grime, and mud off
    the road, but also a lot it picks up a lot of “ugly”,
    weird, and unwanted drivers and passengers. On top
    of that age and natural wear tear it renders the
    vehicle useless. No matter how well the bus has
    served the public, it is time to retire it and find a
    better bus

                             Sometimes, no
                            matter what you
                             do, the bus will
                            be/become dirty.
                             Simply, there is
                             no choice, if the
                             bus is in service




Laertis                                2/7/2009
Yes, Change Is Good

Laertis                         2/7/2009
What We Need
                             8

 We need to establish a new foundation and a new
    framework for building the future. The new
    foundation and framework cannot be based on a any
    current religion or any political system because they
    all are very fractious, conflict-ridden and divisive.
    They splinter our society and alienate many people.
    We need a new foundation, glue or system that is
    kinder-gentler than any previous system

Society Is Looking For A New Foundation
                       9




Laertis                                 2/7/2009
What We Don’t Need
                            10

 A new foundation based on current religions and
  political systems.
 A new foundation based on current institutions, like
  the UN (which has become distorted, corrupted and
  politicized)
 A new foundation based on old beliefs and values
  that promote nationalistic feelings, patriotism,
  racism, discrimination, classes and classifications of
  people, bigotry, intolerance and isolationism


Laertis                                             2/7/2009
Important Note
                              11

 The UN can be fixed if it makes radical changes, such
    as:
     It takes away the veto power from the Super
      Powers
     It becomes really democratic --- not oligarchic as it
      is today
     It follows a set of new rules and policies

     It does have the power to enforce its decisions

     It looks to advance the world, not just police it



Laertis                                               2/7/2009
The New Foundation Must:
                     12

 Be based on:




                  Oneness

Is One Government The End Of Days?
                           19

 No, it is not.


 That’s Christian propaganda that scares the weak,
    feeble minded and paranoid

Another Sad Realization
                             20

 Some of the worst crimes in humanity were
    perpetrated in the name of Jesus, Mohammed and
    God. Millions of people have perished throughout
    History from vicious and ruthless Religious leaders.

    Yes, Religion has such an ugly emotional baggage
    that no one in her/his right mind would like to use it
    as the new foundation for humanity’s future

                      25




                            This message goes too far.
                           We need some Government ---
                             they are part of the glue

 Governments and
    Organized Religions do
    not want Oneness
    because it threatens
    their very Existence.

    They will offer us their
    convoluted and absurd
    models of Oneness to
    confuse us and to derail
    us. It happened before
    and it will happen again

Things To Do Immediately
                             37

 How do we make Oneness real?
     Ignore Organized Religion
      Totally remove the influence of Religion on
        Government
     Limit the power of the Government

      Give back as much power to the people as
        possible
     Redefine Globalization the right way based on the
      Oneness concept

Laertis                                            2/7/2009
Oneness Is:
                             38

 A System
 A Dream; An Ideal
 A Concept; An Idea
 A Theory; An Approach to doing things
 A View of things to come
 A Journey with no destination
 An input from Cosmic Consciousness
 A Plan for the future
 A Description of what we feel and believe

Laertis                                       2/7/2009
We Don’t Need A Leader
                           39

                                      … and we don’t
                                      need any of them.
                                      They all are phony




          It’s Up To Us To Make The Dream Real
