------------------ ARTICLE START ------------------
This period of history is so fraught with danger that many people are
justifiably concerned that their way of life is permanently at risk from
climate changes, war and pollution. The problem lies in the way we think.
Humanity has misunderstood the nature of reality and is now facing the
inevitable consequences of having ignored all the signs that indicated that a
new paradigm had to be found. If we are collectively to change how we think,
there needs to be some way that explains all of our experiences and is
reasonably satisfactory to power-possessors and their advisers: scientists,
sociologists, philosophers and religionistswhether Moslem, Christian, Jew or
Buddhist.
The 7 Words System offers this. It is defined by the use of 7 primary wordsNo,
Hello, Thanks, Goodbye, Please, Sorry, Yesand their 28 related keywords. This
text explains the principles and how they can be found useful in practical
applicationsindividually and collectively for worldly and spiritual purposes.
Words are powerful. They shape the way we think and therefore how we act. If we
misuse them by the employment of propaganda, deceit and sensationalism, then
the mind becomes confused. Such confusion and the related suspicion can never
lead to harmony and trust. To end war we must speak truth. Life is constantly
changing; empires come and go and beliefs constantly shiftand yet there are
some fundamentals that never change.
These are universal lawsand one of them is the law of 7. Intuitively we have
understood the mystery of this number and it appears in our collective
mythology repeatedlyincluding even the days of the week, which were created as
seven without solid reasoning. We can look differently at all aspects of life
when we look through the lens of 7. We can see what is actually going on in any
system and in any communication by analysing its components into each of the 7
words.
Each of us has our own individual strengths and weaknesses. Some are strong
with No, weak with Hello; some good at Goodbye, and reluctant to say Sorry. A
questionnaire has been devised, researched and statistically validated, which
has the capacity to lead a person very quickly to an incisive degree of
self-awareness. It can also be used as a tool for practitioners in one-to-one
sessions of psychotherapy, also in group work and in relationship counselling.
Data has been collected from which charts are drawn to show how certain types
of peoplefor example those who pray, those over 40 and those who are
happyhave characteristics that are measurable in terms of the 7 Words.
Having redefined the problems we are to deal with, we now need to strengthen
our faith that we can take action and expect results. In this, we call upon the
wisdom of Sheldrake and Matsui, who show that thought impinges upon matter and
we can influence distant things by resonance, from which we deduce that
humanity's polluted thinking actually can be healed quickly enough to save
ourselves from a dark future. It's not too late!
Looking from the 7 Words perspective, we learn to see agreement between things
that seemed very different, for example science and religion, Islam and
Christianityand we encourage people to develop their capacity for optimistic
reframing through self-analysis and meditation. In conclusion it is proposed
that we can understand our history in a new way, in which the Agricultural and
Industrial Revolutions are understood as stages of the development of
humanity's consciousness. This enables us to put into new perspective the
current crisis we are facing, to learn what we need to do and to begin the
reorientation necessary to create a wholesome future together on Earth.
