Humanity has suffered many different collapses over the millenniums. There have been difficult times. But there has been an evolution in human society, from the clan and the tribe to the city states, to the kingdoms, and then to the nations. These changes did not come without war and human struggle.
Now a new era in human society is beginning. No longer do the nations serve, just as the kingdoms did not serve. This is one world, one human society, one world of living beings. And all are part of an interwoven, interconnected ecosystem. Human beings alone do not make up society. There are all manner of plant and animal forms, and even the insect kingdom and the earth itself, the formations, the rocks, the winds, the tides—all make up an interwoven, interconnected ecosystem.
The artificial boundaries of nations do not apply to the reality of this world. It is interwoven, interconnected. And human society has also become globalized. There are changes taking place. The collection of human knowledge available to all people in the AI systems, that knowledge has a bright side, but it has a dark side.
Human history has been left with the desires for power, territory, and control. Just like the other herd animals, the deer you find in the herd, have a dominant leader. That leader will fight for power and control. So, it is in human society these animal instincts are not dead.
But human society is changing. And what is required for survival is not what survival gave in the past. Some of these animal instincts of human beings must be brought to submit to the larger hole and survival of living beings.
Today is a new day, a new and bright beginning. Each day has the potential to bring forward a bright new future. I have said this is a new dawn, a new age, a new time in human society. The sun rises and the dawn is visible, but as the sun rises and becomes stronger and brighter, so the shadows cast become darker, more defined, and more succinct until the light grows brighter and brighter. As the sun comes up the shadows begin to shrink, until in the full light of the sun, they are gone altogether.
So it is that a new age arises in human society. And with its emergence, the shadow of human life emerges, the darker aspects: greed, the longing for power, for territory, for control and dominance of others. These animal weaknesses of human beings rise to the surface. As the light grows brighter, they become more dominant. And there is a polarization between the forces that are Dharmic, that move towards compassion, love, and kindness, that bring unity and wholeness to human society, and the forces that want control, power, prestige, territory, and dominance, and that put personal power above all else, and are landmarked by cruelty, lack of compassion.
So human society becomes polarized in such times between those who follow love and those who follow fear and hatred. The light and the dark both become brighter in these transitional times. That aspect of humanity, which is governed by these herd animal dominance tendencies, those animal tendencies, instinctual tendencies, are being burnt out by the brightness of the light.
But before they burn out, they become darker and stronger; the polarization occurs, and you think, “Where is this polarization going?” But there is unity in the force of love. There is a unity in human society that is appalled by the viciousness of war and the animal-dominant tendencies that have ruled the past of humanity.
But when the sun comes brighter, the shadow shrinks. It cannot sustain itself in the light. It gets dark, it gets strong, but it shrinks until it is gone altogether.
So it is in human society that these animal instincts for dominance, control, and territorialism are burning out. The mass of human society does not want this. They want an orderly society with peace and calm where love and compassion rule and people go about their daily lives simply and nicely, and the world works together to face the calamities that humanity has caused and that there is no war, no dominance, and no control fights.
But how does a species that has come from this herd psychology come to be a whole, undivided, living in compassion, love, and kindness, where Dharma rules society? It can happen. It is happening.
The vast majority of people on this planet wants a change. They want to live orderly lives. This has happened in Ukraine Gaza and other places. This is the desire of humanity.
And this is the Shudra revolution. Ordinary people do not want war on their shores. Ordinary people do not want division and cruelty. Ordinary people do not want hatred and fear.
Because that darker shadow has been long and dark, and as it shortens it becomes more concentrated and darker still, there is a thought that that is the desire of humanity. But it is not. It is not.
It is the revolution of the people that will bring down this old paradigm and raise a new paradigm where war does not touch human society, for humans are evolving past this, where there is one global society, aware, and conscious of all beings. This is the future of humanity. This is the future of this planet.
It cannot be stopped. It will arise. It is arising.
So when you see the darkness and it appears to rule, don’t believe it. Believe in the love that is strong in human beings. Believe in the human capacity to love, care, to have compassion and kindness, and to want that in human society, to want a society free from oppression, terror, and war.
In the current society, globally, you see the rise of those who do not follow Dharma, who follow the path of fear, dominance, personal power, and control. And you see the people rising against this. These shadows will not win this war.
For the people have evolved. With the cosmic rays hitting this planet, the essential consciousness in this planetary evolution is evolving. Love, kindness, care, and compassion, are the values being brought in the revolution. It is a revolution against oppression, hatred, aggression, fear, and war.
Naturally, within a revolution, there is great turmoil. This is not about one country or another. This is about Dharma. Will love, kindness, will compassion, and the ways towards the one love, the one truth, move the human society to wholeness? I say it will.
There are cosmic forces at play and a new era is coming, is here, contrasting the light and the dark. Do not assume that the power of the dark, the power of greed, personal power, dominance, individualism will not win, rest assured.
It will not win, not in the United States, not in Hungary, not in Russia, not in China. It will not win. It appears to be in power because that is its nature, to grab power. These forces, these animal instincts of the herd, to follow the powerful leader who is the most aggressive, the most dominant, these are giving way to human beings who want a whole society. Just because it is a silent voice of the people does not mean it is not a powerful voice.
This is the nature of revolution. But as in any revolution, there will be turmoil. But know that the light prevails, and the darkness shrinks. All right? Are there questions?
Questioner 1: What would you advise us to do other than our Sadhana? Are there other actions that we can take as citizens of our countries in the interim time?
Baba: Be an active voice. Be an active voice for Dharma. Be an active voice for the heart of the people. It is not the time to sit back and rest or hide. It is not the time. You have been born into this life. You are the elders. You have been born into this life to do this. You have been born into this life knowing this is going to happen.
You are the Vikupta Shudras. The Shudras need a voice. People want love. They want the way of Dharma, not the way of animality. They want the way of Dharma. They are evolving.
Be the voice of Dharma, love, and compassion. However you can take action, it is time to act. Revolutions are not fought by sitting back and hiding, hoping someone else will do it for you.
Revolutions are fought by the people, by those who lead the people, because they are of the people and the sentiment of the people. That is the role of the Vikupta Shudras. All right?
Questioner 1: Yes, thank you.
Baba: It is time. The people of this planet want love, want peace. The energies of the planet, the psychic energies that are coming are of this nature. The revolution is at hand.
