No politicians nor kings will ever get it. Only way they get it is when they cease to be. But this will not happen for they are 'out of tough with reality' said Joseph Campbell in Power of Myth series interview by Bill Moyer of PBS. J Krishnamurti who spoke at the UN on subject of peace in 1984 said it poignantly 'they are doomed.' It is almost impossible to come out of the rigid regime structure.
Burdened with hierarchy, culture, conformity, repetition, political dogmas, religious beliefs which is not any different than as dogmas leaders are unable to be flexible to cope enormous complexities of life. With comfort and luxury they live in constant conflict with one and other. Unable to see the beauty of life behind caged walls of obscene castles, they spread cruelty brutality. They inflict pain and suffering to masses. We are not related if one does not see the beauty of the birds and the bees.
You can not reach out and touch for as Mr Campbell said 'He is devoid of features of humanity, when you remove the mask of Darth Vader, father of the Jedi in Star Wars movie, he has no facial features. He is undeveloped and unformed man, a mold, a politician.' This important father quest rings through out history of western culture where it developed in Israel. Father sustains the family for desert is poor landscape for human.
In East father is not important. Monsoon brings abundance of water along with all kind of vegetation and rice grows in water soaked fields. Mother gives life and mother gives food. But this is an other story.
