Enlightenment is the most dangerous concept in the human vocabulary. It can motivate us to do the most despicable things to one another… The Muslim radical, the abortion clinic bomber, the college kid in the Che t-shirt committing voter fraud, each is unshakably convinced that the harm they do us is making the world a better place.

How can you and I be sure we don’t make the same error when we try to make the world a better place?

Our enlightenment is innate and as hardwired into our world as The Laws on the Conservation of Matter and Energy. We each pay for every miscalculation of our enlightenment not in some cloudy “karmic” future way, but immediately, right now, with a concrete and measurable dysfunction that is stuffed by the structural forces of existence into our collective quality of life.

We may not think we see it or feel it; and yet it is a glass ceiling on the human potential that weighs us down, a fog of cosmic mustard gas, penalizing us for every iota of sin we commit against one another. Why do I think so? Because this is exactly the equation that happens to your mind, body and spirit each and every time you violate the enlightenment of your biology.

So, I can only assume the equation is the same for our ethical, psychological and spiritual well-being.
