No Going Back to Normal - Going Forward Toward a Transformed Society
by Uriah J. Fields

No going back to normal after the
Coronavirus Pandemic. But then what?

After the invasion of the Coronavirus Pandemic, then what? The answer: there is going forward toward a Transformed Society.

The Coronavirus Pandemic is like the Apocrypha in the Bible, a period of approximately 400 years between the Old Testament and the New Testament - between BC, before the birth of Jesus, and AD, after the birth of Jesus. Before the birth of Jesus the world power was in the East, partly when Egypt ruled supremely. After the birth of Jesus the world power passed on to the West when Rome ruled supremely.

Just as the Apocrypha period was a waiting period for the Advent of Jesus, the Coronavirus Pandemic is a waiting period for the birth of the forward process toward the Transformed Society.

Before discussing the Transformation of Society let us take a look at data about the Coronavirus Pandemic.

The Coronavirus was first discovered in China in December 2019. It has spread throughout the world with the United Staates having more dearhs than any other country - more deaths than China or India, according to the World Health Organization, as cited below:

Deaths from the Coronavirus Pandemic as of January 2021
Deaths in China 4,856 Population 1,439 billion
Deaths in India 170,000  Population 1,380 billion
Deaths in United States 530,000 Population 331 million
It is difficult to understand why China and India with populations four times greater than the United States are having significantly fewer deaths from the Coronavirus than the United States. Question? How does America's exceptionalism figure into this matter? Or...? What do you think?

Toward a Transformed Society
Transformation may be defined as an act, process or instance of transforming or being transformed. In the Coronavirus Pandemic process there are three stages that characterize the transformation of society. They are: Desystemization, Humanity Being and Community Being. They were first presented in "The Saint Troubadour: Speaking and Singing Truth and Love" by Uriah J. Fields, pp. 326-328. They are:

Desystemization
"It's the system," people say. Can we conceive of or imagine a nonsystem? How do we go from a sysfem to a nonsystem? We do it by the process called
deystemization, which is the neutralization or destruction of the ethos that sustains the system. Only desysemization, a revolutionary and creative confrontational approach to insitutionalized living, can produce a radical change that affects the transformation of society. Desystemization then is the pregnancy or conceptualization that gives birth to Humanity Being, hence to Community Being.

Humanity Being
Individual man has no authentic and meaningful existence apart from collective man. We have now come to the place in our evolution where not only will civilization be destroyed but total humanity, if people continue to refuse to accept the human condition and live responsibly as a single organism. Birth itself is the first indication that a person is a part of another person. One can never change this by cutting the umbilical cord. People are connected at all points. Suppose we realized that we are connected at the heart and that just a heartbeat or beat-less heart can determine the fate of mankind? that we are one? that we cannot survive without each other because we are each other? Oh, how this revelation and awareness would change and revolutionize the way we take care of ourselves and relate to each other.

Community Being
The dynamic fusion of culture and higher consciousness characterize Community Being. In Comunity Being communal living is the lifestyle. Each and all are in the family and children are reared by their natural parents and the village. They are considered to be the children of their natural parents but also of all the adults who live in the Community House.Thus, the rationale for practicing sterilization, abortion and a host  of other anti-humane practices, including population control, cease to be concerns in Community Being. Humakind is family.

Humaneness: kindness, mercy, compassion, empathy and unity are terms that best describe theTransformed Society. No, there is no going back to normal; no going back to the rich getting richer and the pooor getting poorer; no going back to police killing black men with immunity; no going back to voter supression; no going back to inequities based on race and sex.

Only the going forward with love to transform society and to live in the Transformed Society. Yes, we will get there. In the Spirit I see the Transformed Society. It is wonderful to behold.
