Law of One Religion?

[native]

I understand your point. But while it may forward self-acceptance, it would also continue to cause cruelty in the world (the effects of human consumption on other life forms and the planet itself). I just can't imagine evolved beings wanting to do this. I feel they would find another way. The overall gain would be questionable.

But that's what I'm asking..how do we know that accepting things that appear to be negative will perpetuate negativity? That is sort of the whole game of spiritual progression, because love and acceptance often goes against what our consciousness sees as fact. For me personally, I know that I get tired of having to worry about everything I consume or do and how it is affecting circumstances elsewhere. So sometimes I just don't care. To hell with it, you know? I can't be expected to carry the weight of the world. I really get tired of having to worry about the world and others. To me this frustration signals that I'm denying things within myself. So what I'm suggesting is that if there were certain things we just accept about ourselves, whatever negative thing that it appears we are supporting, it might create a positive transformation elsewhere that would negate said total negativity in the world..or create a doubly positive transformation elsewhere.

Another way of saying the above is that the thing externally that appears to be negative might be representative of some blockage withing ourselves, something that we denied ourselves creating a blockage that we, again, confront in further distorted manner, which we can choose to indulge and accept, or continue on the path of unworthiness.
