for humanity. It is always easy for a handful to ‘agree’ and embark on a common path. It is also very much known that many of the richest individuals spend billions of dollars for good causes, benefitting humanity. If these Six Individuals could be made to see, understand and accept the core idea, which we have discussed in this eBook, they can bring about the change in months, which otherwise could not be possible even in decades.

Here, it is relevant to very humbly and sincerely mention something, which is very important for humanity. As we have pointed out in the beginning of the eBook, early humanity till the second half of the 20th century never had this huge benefit of confronting the question of scientific basis of Reality and human consciousness. It is not that in the long history of human civilization, good things were not done. The trouble was that the question was never ever felt as even necessary because the question of Reality and human consciousness was being answered by faith structures – primarily religion and even still, majority of humanity do not feel any burning need of replacing religion-interpreted Reality with scientific one.

We have a rather classic case in recent history, which must be understood to arrive at something that has great relevance in contemporary world. We all know, in the history of world, there is a special place for the great Mughal empire, which is stated to be the most powerful and richest in their contemporary times. Many intellectuals feel, the Mughals did splendid things in their rein. The Taj Mahal the Mughal king made is one of the Seven Wonders of the World. They build great forts, mausoleums, patronized brilliance in arts, music and even encouraged literary accomplishments. However, many intellectuals believe, the great Mughals did little for academic excellence and knowledge evolution, as it is usually associated with Renaissance Europe and British Empire. The Mughals are even accused of not using their immense wealth and power to build as wonderful a university as Taj Mahal or the Red Fort of India.

When we see the above facts in holism, which history and its interpretation usually misses, we can clearly see why the great Mughals spent huge moneys on everything but probably not commensurately on knowledge and especially innovation and researches. We all know how in the medieval ages, not only in India but also in other parts of the world, religion ruled the consciousness of most men. In fact, the kingdoms and monarchy drew its legitimacy and mandate from religious-faith structures, which created a nexus of sorts – each patronizing other for mutual benefits. Also, as the religious interpretation of all major questions of humanity, be it Reality or human consciousness, was popularly acceptable to public at large, the monarchy had no business in investing on something (knowledge structures), which was already ‘established’ and which could pose threat to their legitimacy and mandate itself. It is said that Akbar, the greatest of all Mughal kings, had attempted this by trying to popularize his more liberal and objective neo-faith system called Din-e-Ilahi (Divine Faith), which sought to bridge the differences between various faiths. It didn’t work, probably because, the then collective human consciousness didn’t feel the need of any other interpretation of Reality, other than what prevailing faith structures had installed.

This nexus and complicity between politics and religion we have discussed earlier and we all know it very well. What we are trying to arrive at is that today’s wealth and power has no more this need of legitimacy and mandate backing from religion and faith structures. Therefore, the rich and wealthy has better potential to invest in knowledge structures. Moreover, the nexus of wealth and politics still exists and has strong bonding. But, we also know it very well that wealth and moneys are in nexus with politics only because the politics and governments has sole and unrestricted legitimacy and mandate for contemporary oligarchic and autocratic propensities. If the wealthy and rich are successfully presented the idea of a strong probability of alternative and more powerful General Will of masses, having a mandate and legitimacy above and over the political mandate, the rich and wealthy shall have no trouble in breaking the nexus with politics and align with General Will as it shall surely be more compassionate and just than the current political reality. Nobody, however mighty and wealthy, has the strength to go against the General Will. In 21st century world, when masses shall show up the willingness to change, the rich and wealthy shall be the first to change their loyalty and be with masses.

Another very powerful domain, which has a rather marvelous potential of being the most prolific and profitable catalyst of change is Mass Media. No doubt, contemporary media is passing through a tough phase globally and there is a lurking crisis about their own legitimacy in the eyes of masses. But, it is also a fact that mass media is slowly discovering a potential, which was never there, thanks to the growing universality of internet and electronic devices. The contemporary trouble with mass media is not that it has become more inclined to tiptoe the line of government and politics, which their corporate masters are inclined to. Rather, the bigger trouble is the mediocrity and lack of vision of media people. Like other intellectuals of the day, the journalists are also growingly becoming more reactionary and partial. The missing holism is one aspect of trouble. The bigger aspect is that the mass media is failing to understand core area where they have to focus, if they wish to remain relevant to people.

It is heartening news that modern technology and its fast growing spread has unshackled the mass media from the clutches of few big corporations and now the ‘content’ has more freedom to reach the masses and also have the much desired diversity of agenda. There is major opportunity for alternative media, who does not buy the political line. The internet and its growing universality, added with the availability of hugely powerful smart phone media has virtually created an independent army of people, who are successfully filling the vacuum created by corporate media and politically controlled mass media of print and television.

The alternative media has also successfully begun to attract critical funding from good-intentioned corporate bigwigs as well as common people. They should now look up for aligning and para-recruiting the independent men and women with their own personal media, to be part of a media-federation or content-confederation, to have the reach and impact that is unparalleled in the history of humanity. The new media has the potential to become a very potent force and a marvelous catalyst in bringing about the change we are discussing here.

The new media has the single agenda of being holistic and not partial, as is the contemporary mainstream media. The new media must focus on the broad theme of Reforms in state, government and politics. Since ages, the much needed Reforms in bureaucracy, police, judiciary and local self governance system is being ignored and scuttled by politics. The new media must own this most crucial single agenda and constantly work towards pressurizing the government and political structures to complete the agenda of Reforms so that much of the secrecy and autocratic elements are squeezed out of governance and politics.

The new media also has the role to bring the scientists and true public intellectuals into the mainstream of public memory and interaction. The new media is capable of enriching the contemporary General Will with energy and mass of true knowledge of Reality. The new media should itself maintain the highest standards of scientific and objectively logical knowledge as the basis of their content-creation. Moreover, the important element is to shun reactionary consciousness and institutionalize receptive, integrative and assimilative media.

The alternative media has to be different primarily in the sense that it shall have to be more holistic in content creation and idea dissemination. Contemporary media is hugely obsessed with political news and even when they discuss economy, it is essentially political and governmental in nature. This has to change. The people, the society and cultures need knowledge about Reality and human consciousness. People need science in their lives and objectivity of fact-seeking habits. This, the new and alternative media has to ensure. Even this issue of creating a mass mandate for Reforms in state, government and politics shall come from the knowledge dissemination and scientific temper with average people. People and their knowledgeablility is the sole agenda of alternative and new media.

The interesting fact is, all these elements of change we have discussed are inter-linked and cyclic in connect. One strengthens the other and one becomes the energy behind other’s success. The trouble is, which one element shall come first and become the lead agent of change is uncertain. The new media can create and energize the scientific community to enter the domain of public intellectualism. The philanthropists and corporate bigwigs can become the catalyst of strengthening the new and alternative media. The activists and intellectuals can become the lead agents of all changes and can lend energy to all other elements. It is therefore perplexing to say what should come first and which area one should focus more. The only way out is the need of integration and assimilation of all independent elements into singular force of installing knowledge and reforms as the common universal goal for all humanity. This singular element of Integration and Assimilation is the keyword in contemporary world, which has the best potential of ensuring that the true and real sovereign becomes empowered enough to insist, in unified voice – Give Me My Crown Back.

The Epilogue

Hypocrisy is what we have been talking about and it shall be definitive hypocrisy in our part if we do not extend the same and even more compassionate higher consciousness towards politics and governments, against which the entire exercise seems to have been worked out. It is not. We sure have established and are definitive about the culpability of state, government and politics but we have also clearly stated that even the institutions evolve the type of personality, which its constituent individuals collectively have. Therefore, we must accept that governments and politics too have people, who are one among us and naturally, they all are very much part of our overall exercise to make every person see and understand Reality and design of Human Consciousness.

In this light, we have to very humbly and compassionately appeal to all those constituent members of governments and politics globally, to evolve as compassionate higher consciousness, so that they do not consciously or subconsciously become part of the oppressive and corrupt mechanism and processes of governance and politics. It is our compassionate self, which must extend the leeway to all those, even from governance and politics, to accept Reality of Reality and become active agencies in common universal agenda of humanity to install one unified ‘Identity’, for all 7.5 billion people.

We have already accepted that politics and governance are also just the media, as they are one of the many shades of human consciousness, which itself is the medium of expression of Reality. We have already detailed as how different elements constitute consciousness and power-authority is one element, which finds its expression in the domain of, or through the media of politics and governance. Politics and governance therefore is neither good nor bad in itself. No media is good or bad. Good and bad happens when those ‘consciousnesses’, who use the media of politics and governance resort to such practices, which lead to vitiation of milieus. Naturally, things ultimately boil down to education-training of those consciousnesses, ‘who’ in contemporary times are using the ‘neutral’ media of politics and governance for annihilation of human dignity.

This has to be understood well. For example, most people ask, ‘Can Love be true and real? Can there be selfless and ideal Love?’ We need to understand that the very question is wrong
