Today is called a general strike in this limited piece of the planet and labeling, home to this body. I've been talking to many people about it, I have read statements from here and there, and I feel the responsibility to write. For starters I will say that I do not like las huelgas como instrumento de cambio, por más que sus amantes se afanen en encumbrarlas como el único y definitivo. No me gusta quejarme. No es así como actúo en mi vida cuando deseo algo o quiero cambiar algo. No digo que no sea efectiva en ocasiones, dependiendo de lo que cada uno entienda por "efectivo". Algunos bebés tratados con poca empatía son muy "efectivos" en sus peticiones: lloran cuando quieren algo que no tienen, patalean, gritan, chantajean, crean una atmósfera lo más incómoda posible, hasta que los papás o los abuelos les dan lo que piden y se callan satisfechos. Mi madre me trató con mucha empatía y creo que nunca fui uno de esos niños, pero aunque lo hubiese sido esperaría haber learned something since then have developed my intelligence and patience, have learned to talk in a useful way, for example, or have other resources. Because things are achieved through the pressure surface. The pressure causes yield out of fear, interest, convenience, save the most pressing problems, but not convincing. Who gives you something you want to exert pressure you give it to you not convinced, nor do justice to believe that you give it to disgust and anger by keeping a secret. Gives it to you to let him alone, if it gives you decide not to continue the war. And those changes are delicate, not strong or durable, and always hang by a thread. This has happened over History: surface changes occur very showy, but there is a profound change in consciousness, so that the conflict is always latent. The human being is determined to change-often by force, the color of the curtains, boasting of it, everything that is played every time he does, like that, change the color of the curtains, would change something essential in us.
For me the only pending revolution is the revolution of consciousness, mutation of the human being can only begin at home. Gandhi's famous precept always guided me: "Be the change you want to see in the world." Ago recently heard a story where a student went to a teacher in despair, complaining about how bad the world was so helpless he felt. He had been in all groups had participated in demonstrations, had supported with their money and their time all-cause he considered fair, but I felt that all this was diluted one drop in an ocean barely budge. I did not know what to do to be more effective to have the feeling that contributed to a significant change. The teacher calmed and said, "Look, if the world goes wrong is because your country is wrong. If your country is wrong is because your family is wrong. If your family is wrong is because you are going wrong. If you want the world to change change it and stop trying to change you. "I know that when a critical mass of people who have decided to deal with that change the world dramatically changed by infection, without conflicts, and that will be before what we imagine. I am committed to that change, with the mutation of the world soul. In root. If something seems unfair not to protest, just do not share this, suppose that I lead, others think what they think, and always in spite of fear. I am confident in my ability and I will not be saved or that I support it and do not think you owe me nothing. As I assume the samurai, respect and appreciate the freedom I have signed contracts, and if anyone I think you need me apart. When you feel the unit no longer needs to settle all together to combine forces. And forces are united whatever we do, dancing from the beginning of time. There is only one force that leads us in mysterious but emphatic.
deeply respect the right to strike those who want to exercise it. If you did not have that right even to cry out to heaven they did, no matter what I look like my method or if "I" it were to exercise or not. But do not feel that my right is equally respected, and the many, not to strike. And if I decided to write about it in this book is because I think there is something in all this that can help us learn more about respect and how to start conflicts of any kind, regardless of one's political ideas. I will not give my opinion about the specific points that the strikers wielded as reasons for that is irrelevant to what I mean. But I would like to use this strike as a metaphor: These days I have stated over and over, who has asked me, not the secondary. And they have not stopped raining leaflets trying to convince those who do not wish it, there are no "excuses" to be a scab and, without exception, were launched to try to "remove" what interests them we assume that each and every one of those who do not agree. It follows a scheme, at least in all the writings that have come to hand-manipulative language often used by totalitarian regimes and religious fundamentalists. Just the germ of the same type of abuse which he wanted to fight when it created the organizations that now make unconsciously want to believe, and are precisely the ones that called the strike on behalf also of many people who do not want. Ie: We used to their interests. I called the three-point plan:
1. If you protest against a law, for example, instead of facilitating the law without attempting to direct the view on it, it provides a summary biased, and explains an interpretation of the law and a certain anticipation of its consequences as if it were an incontrovertible truth and not simply a view on this, limited, as any point human terms.
