The
Revolution I Propose Politics is founded on concern for
the availability of the goods and opportunities of human
life. Truly human culture is founded on concern for the
right use of the goods an opportunities of human life, as
well as concern for the higher growth and ultimate
self-transcendence of human individuals. The realm of politics is the realm
of conventional striving, and it tends to dominate human
life with dehumanizing force, unless Wisdom is valued by the
people and the men of power. Until the culture of Wisdom
produces individual responsibility and general agreement on
the ultimate Situation of human existence, all talk of
“freedom” and “justice” is nothing more than political
gossip. Every man must be politically free
to enjoy access to the goods and opportunities of human
life, but every man must likewise be, spiritually
responsible for the right use of those goods and the right
exercise of those opportunities. Any other situation is
subhuman, bereft of culture, incompatible with true freedom
and justice, and leading nowhere but toward exploitation and
despair. The true social revolution is a
cultural revolution, not a political or economic one. The
political and economic necessities become relatively easy to
organize once the Wisdom of the truly human cultural
orientation is generally accepted. Until we all Awaken to
the Situation and purpose of human existence, we will create
no lasting peace or order, and each day will bring the world
closer to the finite chaos of War and Bewilderment. But if I
am “heard” in the human world, then the revolution can
begin, and all the dreadful destiny that now lies before us
can be dissolved in the Heart of God.
