We initially considered the possibility of the existence of diabolical states within the intelligent energy, while discussing why it is being called as 'divine' energy. Why would it even consider this diabolical state? In a simplistic rendition of this energy, it can be depicted as a humongous ball of intelligent energy surrounded by a even bigger void.
The more I think about it , and try to co-relate to an analogy, I can picture the image of an intelligent sleeping/dreaming human inside a dark box with no exit.
Look around us - and try to see the positive things that the divine energy has provided us to experience in our life - the blues, the greens, sun, family, friends, love, food and what not ?! But certain states/events like wars, lies, deceits, glum , stress, abandoned old people, raising substance abuse, ignoring of education, callousness, corrupt governments, raising crime rates, homelessness, unemployment etc., are all man made creations that help spread dis-order. Humans do not need any help from any other co-habitant species of this planet to promote this undesirable state !
Remember that the divine energy is providing us with great blessing and peace on one hand and we are providing a very undesirable feedback that we excel in dis-order ! We expect divine intervention to sort out our life's problems and comfort us. Is it wrong for the divine energy to expect a good feedback that will comfort it and allow it to be in a blissful stable state and not experience the disturbing diabolical state? What if all the souls of the universe in different realms/planets is doing the same thing - i.e promote disorder? And what if the divine energy then considers that the diabolical state is the most desired state?
Probably, with respect to this earth planet, the divine energy is getting the right kind of feedback not from humans but from the other species who are inclined to nature to a great extent. Then, the human goes on about environmental abuse triggering climate change and laying out the ground work for the next mass extinction ! Multiply this experience in all other parts of the universe and consider the feedback that the divine energy is receiving !! It is terrifying to me and directly points to me about the possible diabolical state it is experiencing while receiving the feedback !!
So, what can we do to be a responsible citizen of this universe ?
Firstly be thankful for what it has provided !Says the right words in the deeply felt daily prayers before any form of deity that you believe in.
Pray for guidance and to keep your thoughts and deeds pure. As humans, consciously act with honesty and integrity. Try to gain intelligence every counting day by being a leaner till death. I consider that the final lesson I may take is when I am experiencing the process of death myself !
Conduct community events to celebrate festivals especially those that espouse the virtues of good winning over the evil. Come together and protect the environment. Be respectful of other lives. Conduct mass prayers to promote good will and peace and believe in it with deepest faith. And the list expands.
As a responsible democratic government , adopt an iron-clad constitution that guarantees at least the bare minimum guarantees around the below aspects:
Building an effective governance system that consciously avoids administrative power concentration anywhere in the democratic institutions. e.g Imagine a ring of hands clasping each other's wrist !
Ensuring wealth distribution ( I sincerely do not believe that the divine energy has created wealth as part of this universe only for a few to experience its benefits ! If this is happening - what a shame it is on humanity !)
Built in fail safe mechanisms to avoid corruption
Guaranteeing not just the rights of individuals but also of the respectable groups.
Directives to ensure basic minimum wages for the adult population which I think can reduce crimes like human -trafficking , modern slavery, crimes related to exploitation etc., It can also cushion the sudden impact of job-loss of the primary member of the family and thus protect a very important composition of the society - that is the family itself !
Free education
Effective and efficient tax system
Free housing for the low income population when the government has the capability eventually, as we practice good governance
Free basic level food distribution at least thrice a day from easily accessible community centres when the government has the capability eventually, as we practice good governance
Free centrally managed health care system
Ensuring equality of females and other oppressed sects/genders
A measuring and monitoring system that tracks the health of the nation including the mental state of its population and a very effective daring response mechanism
A measuring and monitoring system that tracks the performance and growth of the nation and a dynamic adjustment system the continually course corrects.
Respect for environment and careful use of rare resources and practicing sustainability
Acknowledging the right of other species as the co-habitants of this planet.
Probably, I would think that standards institutions like ISO/BSI should step-in and create a constitutional framework for nations to enable them to develop and implement an iron-clad constitution and this should be enforceable (within a given time period) by the UN. This probably should be done after engineering some UN reforms.
When all the right things happen and it is sustainable, this will reflect in the happy state of minds in the population. With this in mind, we should include in our daily prayer that - all is well and all is good and when this is the feedback coming from all the lives of the universe to the divine energy, then why should not we believe that it will be in a blissful state?
When this happens, the image of an intelligent human sleeping inside a dark box will no longer hold good and we can replace it with the movie where continuously all happy faces and events surrounding them plays out in the mind of the intelligent human floating in a blissful light or anything that is even more joyful to imagine!
