Conversations with
Chief Joseph and John Cali |
from the December 2009 Star Beacon
Polarity
by Chief Joseph and John Cali
Last
week in the grocery store I couldn’t help overhearing a loud
discussion two women were having about politics. I guess this is
true in other places also, but folks here in Wyoming love to discuss
politics. Or, more accurately, argue about politics.
Anyway,
one woman was describing to the other a heated political argument
she’d recently had with someone. She said she ended the argument by
hurling out what I guess she intended to be an insult: “You liberals
are all alike!”
John Cali
Anyone with any common sense knows such blanket
statements are almost always grossly inaccurate at best and
inflammatorily hateful at worst. Yet we hear them often. For
example:
“All
Republicans are right-wing wackos.” (If you’re a Democrat.)
“All
Democrats are left-wing wackos.” (If you’re a Republican.)
“All
Germans in World War II were Nazis.” (If you weren’t German.)
“All
Muslims today are terrorists.” (If you’re not Muslim.)
“All
Protestants are going to hell.” (If you’re Catholic.)
“All
Catholics think they’re the only ones going to heaven.” (If you’re
Protestant.)
And on
and on ad nauseam.
Those
attitudes only separate us further instead of uniting us.
While
everyone is free to say whatever he or she wants, this brand of
polarity contributes to the wounding of the world and does nothing
to promote the peace we all say we want.
Here’s Chief Joseph.
 Chief Joseph
As John said, you all — or most of you — say you want
world peace. We do not doubt you sincerely do want peace on earth.
But, from our perspective, what many of you want is conditional
peace. That is, peace on your terms, not anyone else’s.
Herein lies the challenge for most humans. And it doesn’t
matter whether we’re talking about peace between two individuals,
two countries, two groups, or among all peoples on the planet.
Each of you, individually and en masse, often think your
path to peace is the only path.
Yet that is so contradictory to what real peace is. Real
peace, friends, is total acceptance and unconditional love for all
with whom you share your lives, all with whom you share your
planet.
To approach others (individuals, nations, ethnic groups,
religions, etc.) different from you with hatred and hostility will
never produce peace on earth.
Yet this is what we see you often doing with your brothers
and sisters.
You are polarizing the planet, not unifying it. Only in
abandoning polarity will you ever find peace.
You abandon polarity first by remembering how to love yourselves
unconditionally. Abandon the polarity within yourselves. Each of
you individually have divided yourselves into “good” and “bad”
parts. You pit those parts against one another. For example, you
talk about your egos and your higher selves as if they are
separate, polarized.
They are not.
You talk about other humans, other countries, other
religions, etc., as if they are separate, polarized.
They are not.
See the oneness in yourselves. See the oneness in all
humans. See the oneness in all that is.
Only then will polarity and separation wither and die.
Only then will peace and love thrive and live.
