Where Is Our Humanity

What makes us different from animals, plants, or even the rocks beneath our feet? Why do humans believe we are more important than all other living things? We praise ourselves for our intelligence, our ability to build cities, invent tools, and shape the world around us.

But with all this intelligence, where is our humanity?

Humans are responsible for the greatest harm to the planet and to each other. In nature, animals hunt and kill to survive, but they do not destroy out of anger, revenge, or hatred. Yet, people do.

And at the worst of it, innocent people, women and children, those who have done nothing wrong, become victims of unthinkable cruelty. It is not animals or nature committing these crimes. It is humans.

How Do We Let This Happen?

People often stand by, watching terrible things unfold, unable or unwilling to stop them. Why?

Because fear and manipulation are powerful. Just like Pavlov’s dog was trained to drool at the sound of a bell, people can be trained to accept cruelty. They are told stories that justify suffering, turning intelligence into a weapon that defends the worst crimes.

And history repeats itself. Every new generation looks back and wonders: How could people have allowed such horrors to happen? But here we are, today, witnessing suffering on our screens, watching war and genocide while some call it “self-defense” and others weep in silence.

Where is our humanity?

The Mind Alone Cannot Save Us

Perhaps humanity is not found in the mind at all. After all, the human mind, our greatest tool, has been used to justify destruction for as long as records have been kept. Even the most intelligent people have stood at the center of history’s greatest atrocities, using logic and morality as an excuse for their actions.

Even worse, many of us unknowingly fund these horrors. The taxes people pay, the governments they support, the products they buy, all of it can be linked back to systems that allow suffering to continue. Whether we approve or not, we are all connected to it.

So, again, where is our humanity?

The Answer Is in the Heart

A person with a closed heart is not truly alive. Have you ever met someone full of joy, love, and freedom who had a closed heart? No. Because a closed heart cannot feel.

And what closes the heart? Fear.

And what keeps it closed? Unresolved fear, trauma.

This is the great danger of humanity: a mind that can be trained and a heart that is closed. Together, they create destruction. Even well meaning, innocent people can become part of it without realizing it.

The Only Way Forward

Now is the time to wake up, to open the heart and clear the mind.

Mass hypnosis, the conditioning that makes people accept suffering, must be broken. Because only a closed heart can ignore the pain of an innocent child, no matter where that child is from.

A person who loses their humanity is not just asleep, they are trapped in deep darkness. And in the end, what is worse? To be a victim of violence, or to survive while being blind to suffering?

Living with a closed heart is the worst kind of prison.

The only solution is simple: To feel again.

To open the heart. To recognize suffering. To care.

This is what makes us truly human, not intelligence, not logic, not invention. The earth and its creatures live in harmony without those things. But look at humanity, with its sharp minds and closed hearts, bringing more destruction than any other being on the planet.

It is time to change. To open the heart and clear the mind. To choose Love and Truth.

Because only with an open heart can we become the humans we were always meant to be.
