Unity in Diversity
We start today with an article titled: Unity in Diversity as given through Benjamin Creme by his Master. It featued in the May 2006 edition of Share International magazine, and begins…

Throughout the centuries, men have adopted many different forms of government, ranging from the most despotic to the most egalitarian. Today, most countries have opted for a democratic form, that is, one elected by popular vote for one or other political party.

It is assumed that the voting system used is fair, honest, free from malpractice and fraud. Unfortunately, as recent history shows, this is often not the case, even in those countries which lay great stress on the probity of their election process. Deception and duplicity abound, men and factions are brought to power by chicanery and guile. Most authoritarian are those one-party states where decisions are made by a committee of ‘strong men’ backed by the army and police. The people have little say in the laws which rule them and often, as yet, do not feel the need to claim such rights.

Some countries are in the grip of cruel despots, hungry for power and the wealth which comes with it. Some are ruled by deluded zealots, sure that they and their followers are in the hands of God and are carrying out His plans. Others are struggling to help their people out of poverty and pain, and to fend off the demands of their wealthy neighbours. Still others are fighting for their independence or are engulfed in chaos and civil war. Men must take to heart the lesson from this evidence: many are the ways of organizing the needs of different peoples.
