People of the Western world feel an increasing constriction of their freedom. They see a growing involvement by government in every aspect of their lives. The simplest of disputes require going to court and/or hiring a lawyer. The government has taken over every aspect of domestic relations. It dominates the standards to which children are raised. It has taken over every aspect of education. It will soon take over every aspect of the care of the health of society. It is increasing its influence on the nature of the foods sold and/or made available. Governmental regulations now control most every aspect of the operation of the workplace. Government has replaced moral and immoral, right and wrong, with legal and illegal. People have little latitude in the conduct of the most personal aspect of their lives. They feel boxed in on every side and have developed an increasing urge to break free of these constrictions.
People will soon start taking the action necessary to break free; however, contrary to common thinking and practice the way to freedom will not come about by breaking out of this confinement. The focus on the outer world and all its institutions has caused the encroachment by government and the feeling of helplessness to do anything about it. The path to freedom requires changing the focus from the outer world to the inner world. People need to break into the inner world and realize the power and ability they have as men and women. Western thought has focused on the outer material world for a long time and this process has suppressed the inherent power of men and women and made them dependent upon and then controlled by governmental institutions.
Men created institutions; institutions did not create men. Every institution that exists, regardless of its size, power, and scope came into existence from the inner power of men. The only assertive influence in the universe is the masculine principle; it resides within man, not outside of him. When all the institutions pass man will remain, but when man passes none of the institutions will remain.
The influence of man within the institutions he created is passing as a result of laws demanding equality (sameness) of the sexes. All institutions are losing their vitality and to compensate have welcomed governmental intervention in order to maintain their operations. The government can only shore up the institutions from the outside, whereas they are collapsing from the inside. All Western institutions are failing. All.
To attempt to improve the conditions within by changing the conditions without is working contrary to nature. When the inside changes, the outside changes. When the influence of the inside is inhibited, restricted, or impeded the outside begins to whither.
Institutions have been established to check on the institutions that are failing. Institutions have been established outside of institutions to monitor activities within institutions. All institutions are being attacked and even sued by their members. Ultimately the government is called on to monitor all institutions, and then investigative committees are formed to monitor the government. No amount of institutional adjustment and tinkering can save the institutions. They will all fail because among other things, they do not possess the ethics necessary to maintain moral behavior. They cannot. Ethics do not exist in the material world. They only exist in the unseen world of the masculine principle. When the authority of the masculine influence was removed from institutions all ethics disappeared and the decline began.
The basic institution created for the propagation and preservation of the species is family. All the other institutions that Western thought created are ineffective substitutes for that basic institution. Men make families. They make them for the express purpose of propagating and preserving the species while on its spiritual journey. In order for that objective to be realized women must be included in the institution, not only for the purpose of procreating but also for what Western thought refers to as the “care” of children.
Western society uses the term “care” to describe efforts that support the sustaining of all life such as care of the aged, health care, pre-school care, after school care, home care, animal care, livestock care, poultry care, pet care, and garden care. The term “care” usually means the providing of food, shelter, and if necessary, clothing.
Institutions have been established to provide various forms of “childcare” thus “freeing” women from its “drudgery” and instead enabling them to pursue “self-fulfilling” careers. Institutions now feed children, provide shelter, change their diapers, provide for their recreation, teach values, and even provide free condoms for their sexual activities.
The institutionalized care of children does not produce positive results. The United States has the distinction of having the most violent boys in the world. Three million American girls suffer from depression and close to one million American schoolboys receive prescribed doses of the drug Ritalin. The number one health issue of England, The United States and Canada is mental illness. Fifteen percent of European women suffer from debilitating depression. Something is missing from the “care” of people in the Western world.
The essential ingredient for the sustaining of a healthy natural lifestyle is “nurturing love.” Institutions cannot provide nurturing love. Only the female of all species can provide nurturing love. Women are equipped to bring forth life and bathe it in nurturing love. The ingredient they put into food that cannot be found elsewhere is nurturing love. They put nurturing love into the folds of the laundry, into the making of the beds, and into every thing they touch in the home. All life needs nurturing love to develop properly and women provide it.
Women can only provide nurturing love if they live in a secure environment. Mother’s milk flows freely when she is safe and secure. Men naturally provide the environment and means for women to bring forth life and nurture it. With the removal of male authority the environment necessary for women to provide nurturing love disappeared. Consequently, our children and all of society suffer from mal-nutrition of nurturing love.
Western society suffers from a lack of nurturing, and is love-starved; it has attempted to supply through institutions and material means the non-material qualities necessary for the development of life.
A growing factor in creating a love-starved society is unwed motherhood, which now accounts for 40% of births in America and for 50% in France. Unwed motherhood results in a non-conducive environment for providing nurturing love, thus it exacerbates the downward spiral of love-starved Western society. Their children are dumped into after school programs when still in diapers and at best receive nurturing love on an installment basis.
This essay has gone into considerable length to explain that all that is necessary to propagate, preserve, and develop a proper life comes from the unseen inner qualities of men and women, not from institutions. Paul said there is no single gift that you have not received. Matthew contains the words “There is nothing covered that shall not be revealed; and hid that shall not be known.”
In the duality of the physical universe there are two poles or powers. The first is the masculine principle, which is the assertive influence of the universe and supplies the structure, direction, and environment necessary for the second, the feminine principle—the receptive entity—to provide the nurturing love necessary for all of existence. These two poles working together provide a unity of purpose in the physical world as humankind progresses on its spiritual journey.
Now is the time my sons and daughters to break in and utilize these inner powers to create a more natural way of life for humankind as the institutionalized environment crumbles. To assist you with these efforts the focus of Men’s Action has changed its course. Its message has been clearly defined by the 90 essays on its website, and by my book and information booklets. The manuscript for my second book A Gender Handbook For Western Man is at the publishers, which when published and combined with the other materials should make our message abundantly clear. The new direction entails more specificity concerning the building of an alternative lifestyle outside of the institutionally oriented system.
You can help with this change of direction by investing in my book and information materials, promoting our website, and propagating its message. The time for change is close upon us; let’s collectively participate in it. The power is within you; use it. Now.
