The World Is Going Through So Much Turmoil
This seems to be the century of extremists and fundamentalists. Whether it is Muslim fundamentam, extreme right-wingers or hard-core ite supremacists-they are all there, even by hatred, extreme control and cessively unreasonable behaviour. We are witnessing the rise of someone ce Donald Trump in the US; Kim Jong in North Korea; President Rodrigo torte in the Philippines; the rise of the remeright in Europe and the rise of upshim fundamentalist groups like IS, dal-Qaida in the Middle East. They are eating tremendous violence and fear hung people everywhere. This is also eller by easy availability of weapons doled by the industrial-military complex major industrial nations. Why has the world moved to such a rious thought process? And what has pened to sane and sober voices; why are they not being heard or acted upon? There are worldly and otherworldly reasons for it. Among the worldly reasons, i believe, such negative behaviour is an outcome of tremendous insecurity among human beings fuelled by spiralling greed. Stress of daily life, increased expectations together with the need for instant gratification add to all the fear and insecurity. It is also an outcome of people needing instant feedback, which makes them react to events, rather than thinking about it and then responding. Reaction leads to irrational behaviour because eventualities are not thought of and evaluated. Easy access to internet and social media makes the vulnerable easily succumb to those who try to control them for their ulterior motives. Some rich people who are bored and have lots of time on their hands-they, too indulge in these activities. Whether it is IS or right-wing extremists, it is only a handful of controllers who exercise great power through internet and mass media. The otherworldly reason could be that earth is passing through space, which perhaps causes such upheavals in hu mans. Just like great discoveries and inventions have come periodically to humans, similarly, we get these destructive tendencies as the earth passes through 'knowledge space'which is filled with memories, good and bad, having the ability to produce both positive and negative tendencies in humans. Nevertheless, one worldly way out of this predicament is to ensure that work is available for all-that is, no one should be unemployed, without a vocation or any kind of work. "An empty mind is the Devil's workshop" is an old saying that drives home the importance of work for everybody, especially theyoung. Recently, interesting though intriguing data from 70-80 countries show that anxiety levels increasewhen there is less work (James Tozer in The Economist, citing a study done by the World Bank in 2015). Thus, anxiety levelsare inversely proportional to the hours per yearthat people work. Due to technological advancementsandambitious plans to produce more and more, automation in the whole process of manufacturing is making large numbers of workers redundant.What is needed is to utilise this workforce in high-tech agriculture, service industry and in processes wheremanmachine interface becomes the norm. This could be aided by enlightened legislation which allows people to negotiatetheir wages according to their potentialand performance rather than having to accept a pre-structured pay scale.
