BASIC INDIVIDUALISM

NATURAL RIGHTS: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.

"CONGRESS SHALL MAKE NO LAW

respecting an establishment of religion,

or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;

or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press;

or the right of the people peaceably to assemble,

and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."

— First Amendment

“The great events of world history, are, at bottom, profoundly unimportant. In the last analysis, the essential thing is the life of the individual. This alone makes history, here alone do the great transformations first take place, and the whole future, the whole history of the world, ultimately spring as a gigantic summation from these hidden sources in individuals. In our most private and most subjective lives we are not only the passive witnesses of our age, and its sufferers, but also its makers. We make our own epoch.” – Carl Jung

“Individuation is not that you become an ego—

you would then become an individualist.

“You know, an individualist is a man who did not succeed in individuating; he is a philosophically distilled egotist.”

– Carl Jung, The Psychology of Kundalini Yoga, Pages 39-40.

Natural rights / FREE individualist...

/ Persuasion trumps power...

POWER, distrust it… let ideas, individuality flourish —

free-minds & free-speech ("natural rights") …

POLITICS, redirect it… toward systems of strong individuals providing service to the community, encouraging self-determination, self-reliance, self expression, and self-knowledge (e.g., supporting economic ideas of “spontaneous order”, “creative destruction” etc.)…

PERSUASION, pursue it… via self-learning:

thoughtful listening, questioning, understanding …

POSITIVE, build on it… tapping strengths to overcome weaknesses; cultivating a genuine sense of gratitude; disregarding small-minded, short-term trifles to always favor long-term (big) true-self picture.

True self trumping ego's facade...
