I want to share a problem I have been considering\u00a0for a long period of time. \u00a0How much do people inherently know about law, policy, regulations, policies, and procedures? \u00a0There\u2019s just way too much for people to absorb and actually know. \u00a0 As a society, I believe we\u2019re fooling ourselves into thinking that we have a just and\u00a0equitable society. \u00a0 It is only those who unnaturally know all of this material or how to find the law when needed who\u00a0can advance themselves in society. \u00a0\u00a0 How much do\u00a0actual lawyers even know? \u00a0 As far as I know, the way it works is that you have to know how to look for the law in every situation that you encounter. That\u2019s why we have Legal research. \u00a0 Therefore, we are holding people accountable for laws, policies, procedures, and regulations they don\u2019t even know about. \u00a0 Sometimes lawyers don\u2019t even know. \u00a0 I think it\u2019s really strange. This phenomenon creates considerable environmental injustice and societal suffering for those who are unaware and\u00a0don\u2019t know how to conduct legal research. \u00a0 In contrast, I believe we all ought to have a foundation of loving, caring, sharing, giving, forgiving, and genuine, kind striving, so we can bring about conditions of comfort, joy, love, hope, equity, unity, faith, and sustainable, striving happiness. \u00a0 If we all remember this foundation, do we need the law? \u00a0Instead, I recommend more analytical, holistic, prescriptive advice and holistic analytical arbitration when we need to engage in problem-solving.\u00a0Moreover, we need to be more natural earth striving, natural humanity striving, natural spirituality striving, and natural healthy living striving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’ve been reflecting deeply on the immense and ever-growing complexity of our legal, policy, and regulatory landscapes. It appears to me that the sheer volume of these frameworks far exceeds the capacity for any individual to comprehend, let alone master, inherently. It is irrational.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This reality compels me to question the very foundations of what we deem a ‘just’ and ‘equitable’ society. We often operate under the implicit assumption that people are universally aware of the intricate rules governing their lives. Yet, for the vast majority, such comprehensive knowledge is simply unattainable. Consequently, advancement and success often become disproportionately accessible to those who possess the specialized skills or resources to navigate this labyrinthine system, inadvertently creating an uneven playing field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Indeed, even within the legal profession, expertise often lies not in memorizing every statute or precedent, but in the highly specialized skill of legal research \u2013 the ability to locate, interpret, and apply relevant laws as specific situations demand. This highlights a profound paradox: we hold individuals accountable to an expansive body of law that even its most dedicated practitioners rely on constant investigation to ascertain. This systemic oversight invariably leads to significant environmental injustices and widespread societal suffering, particularly for those without access to legal guidance or the means to conduct intricate research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In contrast to this overly complex and often inaccessible paradigm, I advocate for a societal foundation built upon more universal and intuitive principles: genuine love, compassionate care, generous sharing, empathetic giving, sincere forgiveness, and continuous, kind-hearted striving. Imagine a framework where these core human values serve as the guiding light for our collective interactions and societal structures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I firmly believe that anchoring our collective consciousness in these fundamental virtues would naturally foster conditions of profound comfort, authentic joy, enduring love, unwavering hope, true equity, harmonious unity, steadfast faith, and sustainable, meaningful happiness. When our policies and procedures (when needed) emerge from such a deeply humane and common-sense ethical framework, rather than an abstract and disconnected legal one, they are far more likely to resonate with the lived experiences and inherent moral compass of all individuals. Moving from imposed rules to shared ethical principles is essential for a just, equitable, unified, and compassionate society. Furthermore, when we combine a natural, striving earth ethic, it helps us understand what we need to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I think lawyers would be much happier dealing with holistic, prescription advice, and analytical problem-solving associated with arbitration when conflict in society occurs. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
