RIDING ON A HUGE ROCK





9268  Riding on a huge rock   20201107

We the human beings are living on several large plates of rocks, which are floating on a still much larger liquid mantle circling the core center of the planet. The plates would collide with each other, forming earth quakes and huge mountains. That means we are floating and we would collide with each other. We are not living in a fixed place, but floating and moving. It must be another grand design of the Universe, if human beings are fixed in one place, there would be less progress. And the evolution progress will not be as fast. 

Civilizations are the same. Years ago, the colliding trend of the US plate and the China plate is not clear enough. But the movement of the plates are fast, now, it is certain the plates would collide. 

And this is the true essence of the Sino-US conflict. 

It is not a country to country conflict; it is a civilization to civilization crash. Countries are manipulatable thus final confrontation could be avoided, yet the civilization conflict is not controllable.    

Civilizations are like tectonic plates. They are a grand structure and they are moving with a power. 

What is civilization?

An ancient Western wise man ponders how to tell his findings to his children, he invented alphabet. He thought it is good, as different combinations of the alphabets can represent many things. He may not be aware that he was using his left brain.

Left brain is like a brain of drawers. Left brain has got extra strong indexing power while the right brain is a brain of ocean. Currents run inside the ocean and final result would come out like a cooked meal. You can cook with your right and calculate with your left.  

There are very few complete left brainers. We all have two sides of brains. When we need precise calculation of something, we would use the left side, when we are working on something in a whole, for example writing a story or composing music, we would use the right brain. Therefore we can say it is "left brain oriented" or "right brain oriented", as the brains are not isolated, they are always co-operative with each other. 

When the ancient Chinese wise man ponders how to tell his children his findings, he uses a stick to draw a character.  And he may not be aware that he was using his right brain. The characters have no index, but they can move freely in the right brain. And that leads to a path of right brain-oriented thinking since. 

An ancient Chinese would use a plate to put food for the whole table of people; while a Westerner would use a separated plate for each one.

When an ancient painter draw, he would try to draw it like real in details; yet an ancient painter in China would draw with his mind flow. He sees a picture in the whole and would output a picture from the cooking pot.  The same is a medical doctor. He would see the human body as a whole while his Western counterpart would see the organs separately.  

Precision, detail, data collecting, are all very good tools in science. Western science has been developing fast. And they have created fortune out of the left oriented method. 

Now the Chinese are picking up. And they find it is not a difficult thing to achieve precision and data collecting. To study science is not a big deal for them. And they are still using the Chinese characters and are right-brain-oriented, which could help them see more clearly in a higher angle yet they have not given up the lower view point. 

The Chinese are seeing the whole picture first. The have always a complete scenario in their brain. 

And this is the first important feature in the different civilizations.  A sense of wholeness and a sense of separated units (for example, a self), are the two basic foundations of the two Cultures. Other features like morals, religions, scientific findings and even political setups are all secondary. 

The Chinese are running in a special form of Socialist Government while the West is Capitalist Government. One can feel the difference of civilizations here. The major trend of the Chinese is for the good of the whole, while the West is for small units. And maybe it is natural and necessary for the planet. As we need not only one side of a brain, we need a complete brain to prepare human beings for the future. 

And human beings have come to such a place that it seems like a game in the theme parks. It is Bang-Bang-Ride. You ride in a half-controllable car in a circled ground, the cars would bang on each other and you enjoy the fun of banging. 

Now the Governments are riding in large pieces of floating rocks which are 100 km thick and are floating on the mantle. The rocks are banging each other without your approval. 

Important question is how to avoid unnecessary harm for both sides. And how to achieve a bigger pleasure for all. 

Thus it is important to see the different aspects of the civilizations. 

The crashing of the two civilizations are certain, and it will not be destructive.  Tectonic plates do collide and combine, they will not replace each other in the globe. Civilizations are not only morals, religions, Governments. They are plates and foundations. They will combine with each other and anyone could benefit himself from the other side. 

The question is how to learn from the other side. Better learners will have a bigger gain. To fight or not to fight, is a question for the Governments, not for the cultures. 

And the bigger problem is not the survival of the Governments, but the countries in the conflict. 

Governments are built on Countries, Countries are built on Civilizations. 

And wise people will always remember, they are not riding aircraft carriers, but rocks. Aircraft carriers are controllable, yet the rocks are not. There will be premature destruction for those who cannot see into this. Those who are too proud of themselves and despise others will be losing ground.  The motto is never refusing learning. Those despise others will refuse learning.  

Only true learners of the civilizations will survive and prosper. 

Planet dwellers are witnessing the great opening of a coming grand epoch, which will last thousands of years from now on. It is a great pleasure for the planet dwellers if they can get themselves into the scenario.
