SEPARATE ADHERENT FROM IDEOLOGY

SEPARATE ADHERENT FROM IDEOLOGY 

Anti-ideology need not mean anti-adherent. An adherent may have been by birth trapped into abiding by a certain ideology and cannot will his way out of it. But he may in terms of other human qualities be an excellent individual with a great capacity for spiritual unfolding which is right now being circumstantially impeded. But the ideology he is by birth and indoctrination being made to follow may be rotten to the core, anti-human, anti-life and utterly tribal and archaic with no place in a modern world of universal values, non-sectarian and human. To separate individual from ideology is then imperative. This done, it is easy enough to weed out the degenerate doctrines and arrive at a reformed view of life and truth. If the ideology resists reformation, it will have to be left alone to die a desolate death in the desert sands of disuse. Meanwhile, evolution carries on, humanity progresses.
