The Bottom Line on Values

Values are usually included as part of a sentence

that includes the words

“Whatever values you have”

As if values were all lovely like Aristotle’s ineffective virtues

Well the bottom line is that there are only three values

you or I need

Tolerance

Helpfulness

Democracy

If these were universally supported all would be massively better

Synonyms can be suggested for those who feel constrained

But the point is that these are a symphony of

ontic blessings that will enhance the meditation of anyone with

a willingness to concede that the world was built for a purpose.

I am tired of raps on the ego and the body and the mind

They are just the flip side of raps on Near Death Experiences and all things psychic, mystical or subjective

We are binary when we should be triadic

We do not unite in favor of unities that are a drag

We do not recognize that we could throw everything away

and survive happily as the followers of light we all are underneath
