The Law of Freedom, Part 6: Karma, Chaos and the Belief in Authority

The Law of Freedom provides the understanding of how the belief in authority leads to the chaos of negative karma for us all.

The Law of Freedom and Authority

The belief in authority (BiA) is accepting the claim of the legitimacy of some having the right to control others who don’t initiate harm. If you don’t obey “authorities”, they will initiate harm (do violence) to you, or send someone to initiate harm onto you. It is the false belief that some have the “right” to issue commands to others who must obey. Essentially, some are masters and others are slaves. Authority is slavery.

In reality, there is no legitimacy to a claim of having the right to rule over another, to make your will supersede their will over what they may or may not rightfully do. Rights and what is right is based in objective truth, not subjective whims, wants, desires, preferences or beliefs.

Accepting the false claim of authority to control others is accepting slavery. Wanting authority is wanting slavery.

Authority, Collectivism, Conformity

Authority is about getting your will obeyed by others. Other wills align to your will, or else they will suffer punishment for failing to do so. Collectivism gets people to align to what the group agenda or ideology wants them to be. It involves groupthink, social inclusion, feelings of belonging, acceptance, being part of something bigger than yourself, and also ostracism, exclusion, rejection, isolation or violence if you don’t conform to what others expect from you. The individual is expected to subsume their will and mind-space. The individual is expected to act according to the will of another or others. Collectives or groups often integrate authoritarianism as well, but regardless, there is a negative consequence for rejecting obedience to that external source that you are supposed to give in to.

Modern authority via government, contrasted with monarchy, dictatorship, etc., is sold through collectivism fantasies like “we the people” having the power. Ignore the fact that it’s only voting for various rulers to decide for things, and if we pay attention and don’t like what they do we just vote someone else in the next round of elections every 4 years. In the meantime, obey your new master.
