The greed for power and money made humans do inhuman things. slavery was one of those the product of power greed. It began from the very personal level and extended to the macro level. We see geopolitical tensions arising among nations. We can observe the development ongoing to make themselves powerful. nations investing in military, science, technology, and economy has this side to show power than making the country a better place. This race to power blessed humans with a lot of inventions that modernized our life and made our lifestyles better. But the flip side is that it led to the greatest wars that humankind ever witnessed. It killed people beyond numbers and put a lot of lives miserable. Every event comes with pros and cons. The cons side requires years or decades to settle. the radiation effects in the nuclear-affected areas, slavery, climate change, plastic wastes, racism, caste, inequality, and man-made diseases are prime examples.
Genuine conviction is invariably born from firsthand experience. This is because, innately, our belief systems are wired to accept anything that can be perceived through our sensory experiences, a trait that evolved during our ancestral hunting epochs. Once we acquire such direct experiences, no further evidence is required to cement our belief. These experiences thus become the compass by which we navigate our existence. Hence, the optimum method of learning is through experimentation and introspection, for knowledge acquired in this manner becomes deeply embedded within our psyche, imparting indispensable lessons for personal development and growth. Predominantly, our learning derives from the direct experiences of others who possess a profound understanding and apply this wisdom to enhance their lives. Regrettably, we often fail to leverage this wealth of knowledge to our own advantage.
