2. Visionary Society Public Event
Turn a political issue into a Quest
Are you fed up with politics, but still want to be involved in the issues of the day? Is government that recognizes heart and soul possible?
Every time a political issue is presented to us we can look for a deeper way, one not based on superiority or coercion. Turn a political issue into a Quest.
Does politics have to be adversarial? Are you worthy of democracy? What would it mean to develop exquisite sensitivity to the human condition of the community?
Do not vote for a second-rate way of life, even if it is the lesser of two evils. We have more power than we realize, if we build up in ourselves, during the course of our life, the courage of heart and soul. Of refusing to close our heart. Of defending ourself against despondency and bitterness. Of the tenderness and fearlessness that is needed to approach our foes. This is voting as it was meant to be.
It doesn’t matter which side is right. It doesn’t even matter if we find a solution. Instead, our goal must be to look courageously, with humility and goodwill. That is already transformative action. Visionary voting means developing our latent and suppressed capacity for perceiving and acting at the deepest possible level. It means engaging people to respond at precisely the level at which deficiency is being generated.
Turn a political issue into a Quest
Every time a political issue is presented to us we can look for a deeper way, one not based on superiority or coercion. Take it as an opportunity to transform the field on which opposing parties meet, so that they no longer meet in opposition. Reconstruct any hopeless political issue and make it Visionary. Select a political issue, and we will work together to turn it into Quest.
