Justice and Power

Justice is one of the concepts we have been discussing since Plato and Aristotle.

While Plato accepts that states are just, Aristotle accepts that those who govern the state are wise.

The concepts of religion and morality that developed afterwards, and each society kneaded its belief system with its own perceptions and cultures.

Today, it is possible to say that these two concepts still confuse people’s minds and create a gap between their brains and hearts, sometimes obsessively.

The word spoken by an elder is still in my ears. He used to say that if a person is bringing something to the fore too much, you should pay attention to that issue.

These concepts will have also influenced politics so that the concepts of justice, law, and people are not missing in the names of such organizations.

What we call good and bad within belief systems is a reflection of duality.

Where would growth and energy come from if these differences and cultures did not exist? You know, energy also comes from differences. As potential and kinetic energy.

We classify energy in order to understand it. As good and bad energy. Hence, mentally we sometimes deceive ourselves.

We conflict with our perceptions and cultural differences, we fight, we become impoverished, and we create technology and change our lives to get rich. Then we break the balance of the world and fight again. This situation is like a historical cycle.

Changes don’t happen by themselves, but when they have to, people initiate that change in their minds.

Both the migration of tribes and the world wars each had a reason. But the main reason behind all of them was his desire to perpetuate his own existence and his ego. Can you imagine Atila’s motivation?

The only way to understand these differences is to understand and listen.
But what we bring about historically leaves us in the classroom in terms of understanding and listening in our biases and efforts to excel.

Power-centeredness and human ego prioritize not listening, being right oneself.

And behind it, of course, the deviation from duality, power-centeredness, fear management, the flattery of power worshipers, the ecosystem of advocacy, the flow of interests and energies, and the result is power poisoning.

In this process, too, to exclude the other party with power-centeredness, to prove your power. The pursuit of rights of the excluded and the growing conflicts between the obsessively right and the strong.

Isn’t that the same in world history? Is imperialism occupying because it is right? He says he’s strong. Why are people imprisoned and ostracized in oppressive regimes? Is it because they are wrong? No because of the strong willingness to put pressure on him.

My advice for the strong is that you can’t always do this and change will eliminate you too.

My advice for the excluded is that when you enter the struggle for rights, you lose the power struggle.

In order to be both right and strong, you must do your best. The next comes from another belief system, but contemplation and devotion.

The struggle for life will continue as far as our energy is sufficient to improve humanity, where the rulers are just, the rulers are wise.

In the Startup World, in the face of today’s powerful companies, you cannot say that you are not right, but unless you can scale your business and make yourself strong, your rightness will not make sense.

When you gain strength in this process, if you try to use it against others, you will create power-worshiping people around you with your climate of fear and then you will experience power poisoning.

I wish you a fair, wise, good and high-energy life.
