Working With A Leaking Bucket

The Urgent Need For Self-Correction

Today many people realize that behind all the problems we are encountering in the world stands our inherently selfish, egoistic and hateful nature. It is this nature that prevents us from forming positive, mutually complementing interconnections, cooperations, without which problem solving and thus survival is impossible in a global, integral world.

And while previously we were all content with pointing fingers at others while always justifying ourselves, today we started to accept that first of all we need to correct ourselves instead of always trying to correct others or the world around us.

The Incubator

But when we set out to perform such a self-correction we see how difficult, almost impossible such a task is. After all we would need to correct our inherent nature using the very same inherent nature, since we don’t have anything else to work with.

Thus we need a very unique method and a special, purposeful environment, incubator where such a “supernatural” self-transformation can unfold.

This incubator acts like a diagnostic device first of all, showing us how strong and deep the dictatorship of our inherent egoistic nature goes, then it also provides the practical remedy for the desired transformation.

Mutual Guarantee

First the method in the “incubator” – a mutually committed, purposeful circle of up to ten people – doesn’t look complicated. The members of the circle agree to make every possible practical effort, action in order to build “mutual guarantee” in between them.

“Mutual guarantee” is the default state, principle of the vast, cosmic natural, evolutionary system that surrounds us and we are also part of. All parts, elements of the system – apart from human beings – instinctively, automatically takes part in this mutual guarantee.

They all unconditionally serve one another, making all calculations for the well-being, most optimal function of the whole collective ahead of any individualistic, self-preserving calculations.

This mutual guarantee maintains balance, homeostasis in the system without which life, optimal development wouldn’t be possible.

Purposeful Human Incompatibility

Human beings are the unusual exception, receiving from evolution such a “mutation”, “Human upgrade” that makes people “amnesiac”, not sensing mutual guarantee by default. We are born outside of this mutually complementing “circle of life”.

As they say nature doesn’t make mistakes, there is nothing faulty or surplus in this magnificent system. Our outsider status is also purposeful, preparing us for our unique, unparalleled Human role in evolution: becoming the free, independent, conscious mind and guardian of the whole system.

Thus our “outsider” status is not a sin or something evil, we have no choice about it, this is a necessary starting point.

Our free choice and responsibility starts from the moment of recognizing our “outsider” state as harmful, when a potential remedy is also revealed together with the diagnosis. Then by proactively integrating into the system’s mutual guarantee starting from the opposite, “outsider” viewpoint gives us the necessary contrast, comparative research opportunity necessary for our evolutionary role.

Recognizing The Destructive Pharaoh Inside

Thus back in the unique incubator the mutually committed circle of people – based on the purposeful, practical method with the help of an authentic teacher – start aiming at this evolutionary Human role. They start making all possible effort for building the necessary mutual guarantee in between them.

And only when they consistently, with 100% effort continue their mutual “game of love”, imitating, play acting, trying to “breath life” into true selfless, unconditional love and service in between them, that they start recognizing, revealing their true inherent, opposing nature.

It is already a very developed, high state, viewing from an unprecedented “out of body” point of view that they start observing the ruthless, egoistic, completely self-serving “Pharaoh”, lurking inside with an insatiable desire for self-fulfillment. Thus Pharaoh keeps rejecting, exploiting others distorting any effort for sustainable, mutual connections.

And it is an even more evolved, higher state when the irrepressible presence of this inner ruler awakens discomfort and then hatred in them against our.

This is when they start falling into despair seeing how everything they built, achieved falls immediately, like sand castles built on the beach washed away by the rising tides overnight.

They start to feel like people carrying life giving water in buckets with multiple holes, the water leaking out into waste in an unstoppable way, nothing remaining inside.

Searching For A Different Diving Force

And this “leaking bucket”, the inherent Pharaoh, our instinctive operating software is irreparable. Our inherent nature driving us within simply cannot work in any other way, but for its own reward, self-fulfillment, profit. Without this self-serving engine we couldn’t exist, survive.

The only thing we can do to progress towards the desired, necessary mutual guarantee is “running away” from our inherent ruler, trying to gain liberation from our egocentric “Egypt”. Instead of our inherently self-serving, self-justifying desire we need to “catch a ride” with a different kind of desire, driving force.

But where could we run to and how? Where can we purchase that different desire, driving force?

This is where the so far “only diagnostic” incubator becomes also “therapeutic” providing the remedy.

The New, Common Desire, Burning Need

We shouldn’t try to repair the broken individual bucket of ours, it is a waste of time trying to correct our own nature as we have absolutely no ability to do so. But we can turn away from our own “leaking bucket” and start focusing on all the others in the circle, on their “buckets”, desires.

We need to isolate and concentrate on their unique desire, need to reach our Human purpose in existence. This is the desire we need to purchase from one another in the circle.

We can make our life’s purpose to help the others reach the desired inner change and resulting perfect interconnections with each other. Thus the “mutual game”, conscious effort pinpoints these initial desires in each participant, merging, intensifying, purifying them until the importance, burning flame of this common need becomes strong enough.

Purposefully Evolving Inner, And External Conditions

Thus an interesting inner war starts in each of the participants, each running away from their inherent “leaking bucket”, desire trying to draw everything towards itself, stealing the received bounty for their own profit. Instead they try ignoring whatever happens with their own “buckets”, their own desires, needs, yearnings.

Fueled by the constantly stoked, intensified importance of their mutual goal they start single-mindedly focusing onto the circle of the other participants, assisting them with everything they have towards mutual guarantee.

They become like mothers who don’t feel tiredness, sickness, danger, only focusing on their babies, embracing, loving, nurturing them. The participants in the circle purposefully, stubbornly ignore their own thoughts, desires, needs, coercing themselves to only focus on the others.

As a result a very interesting chain of events unfolds. Since based on their mutual commitment, “covenant” they all act the same way towards one another, they actually don’t need to worry about their own purposeful needs, fulfillment towards their goal, since the others automatically and perfectly assist them in that through positive examples, constant inspiration.

Thus an unprecedented mutual trust, confidence unfolds energizing, intensifying their mutual efforts.

Moreover through their commitment, specific evolutionary aim they also mobilize some very powerful natural forces deep inside of them and also around them. After all with their new, proactively determined mutual purpose they match natural evolution’s plan, which is expecting human beings to reach their destined, most optimal evolutionary role.

As a result a so far hidden, dormant inner program awakens in the participants, imprinted in them from the beginning in order to assist in that final purpose, role. At the same time the surrounding world also starts evolving with them, opening up, facilitating their mutual efforts, progress from both seemingly “negative and positive” directions, as if a previously restrictive, stormy sea opened up offering unprecedented passage forward.

New Life

As a result the original nature, the original self with its single-minded self-serving, self-protection gradually fades into the background and barely “survives” based on absolute necessities. It receives “just enough water”, fulfillment into the leaking bucket to keep it going. It simply performs its role of becoming the necessary contrast, “measuring stone” for comparative research.

The person’s main focus, conscious existence shifts completely into the mutual circle. One’s conscious observer dissolves into those others, helping, supporting, observing them. The person makes a sport out of finding ways of serving, supporting others without any expectations, without waiting for reward or even feedback, as if providing the smallest, most concealed support from a distant land in exile, without anybody noticing.

One’s thoughts, desires, emotional impressions don’t come from the original, inherent “bucket”, set of desires, necessities any longer, but come from others. As a result the isolated “out of body” observer enters, discovers a new, budding life, “embryo” within the circle outside, detached from the “forgotten” leaking bucket, separated from the original self and its instinctive desires.

The members of the circle feel as if they traded their original being for a new one. It is as if they “sold their souls” in order to gain access to the desired mutual guarantee. But in fact they actually “bought their soul”, they mutually acquired, built that new being, that embryo which would give them access to a completely new, qualitatively higher existence.

While the original, selfish, egoistic “leaking bucket” anchored them to this limited, introverted and subjective reality, the new selfless, unconditionally loving and serving mutual “embryo” opens up an infinite and eternal existence disconnected from the coordinates of time, space and motion.

Their mutual “embryo”, their common “soul” – their mutual self-annulment towards one another – is the window into that new dimension.
