Peace


You are probably wondering what peace has to do with pyramids and why I would post it here.
Well, for me it has to do a lot with pyramids. I believe that the pyramids at Giza, Egypt were built as a message for the future generations (for more information read here). The ancient civilization that planned and constructed them tried to send us vital information about them, about us and about our survival on Earth.
I started thinking about peace. You see, when there is no peace, a great amount of energy and resources go into some sort of fighting, it does not have to be just war; any kind of conflict drains nations and peoples from their resources.
Instead, this ancient civilization channeled its creative energy into something constructive, powerful and cooperative. Rather than fighting over land, property, power and resources, it chose to organize its working capacities into something bred by compassion, care and awareness. Instead of building heavy machinery to defeat its enemy, it built heavy machinery to erect the pyramids. Instead of designing deadly weapons, it designed a message. Instead of trying to predict its enemy’s next move, it tried to predict its posterity’s life and chances – and tried to warn us and help us.
And we call ourselves advanced?
