A CLOSER LOOK AT OUR MISSION STATEMENT

The mission statement of Men’s Action calls for fostering a more natural way of life for humankind. This statement consists of four objectives, and probably the least known is Objective IV, which reads, “Foster respect for the environment and a lifestyle that results in health and well-being.” The strategies for attaining this objective follow: Promote a toxic free environment, Support organic farming, Promote vegetarianism, and Promote holistic health. Some—if not most—readers will question what this objective has to do with gender, patriarchy, family, or societal issues. This objective and the strategies necessary to attain it have a fundamental relationship to and form an intrinsic part of the lifestyle necessary to sustain the race while on its journey of spiritual growth.

The first strategy calls for promoting a toxic free environment. Toxic describes every facet of the Western world. The pollution of the air, water, food, and thinking has created toxic conditions in every form of life on the planet. Pesticide and herbicide residue can be found in the glands of all mammals and especially man. Respiratory ailments have risen appreciably as have chronic diseases, all of which are symptoms of toxemia caused by pollution of one sort or another. The pollution of the environment at ever-increasing rates and in a variety of ways has cause an increased incidence of old diseases and the development of new diseases.

Men now develop prostate issues in their 30’s, and heart conditions in their 40’s; diseases once identified with old age. Alzheimer’s disease has begun to affect people as young as 60 years of age. Female disorders such as breast and cervical cancer, thyroid malfunction, yeast infections, and depression now approach epidemic proportions. Hearing disorders among young adults have increased exponentially as a result of the noise pollution caused by the use of various electronic sound transmitters. Increasing numbers of children have diabetes. All of these ailments are manifestations of toxicity caused by mass pollution of the environment. Promoting a toxic free environment will serve as a step to a more healthful society.

The second strategy calls for supporting organic farming, which to some degree represents an extension of the first strategy. Organic farms do not use chemical fertilizers and pesticides that pollute the land and rivers. They also grow food with a high nutritional content and energy levels relatively free of unnatural impurities. One reason for the advanced age of people now in their 70’s to 90’s stems from the fact that all the food eaten in their formative years was organic and pollution free. Those who have diabetes in their teens, respiratory ailments in their 20’s, prostate issues in their 30’s, and heart conditions in their 40’s will not see advanced age. We are rapidly developing into a society in which parents outlive their children. Organically grown foods would cut down on the toxicity in people’s bodies and contribute to a more healthful life.

The third strategy calls for promoting vegetarianism. Close to 10 million Americans adhere to a vegetarian diet. No longer considered a fad, vegetarianism has a growing following in America and in some European countries. Many reasons account for this trend including improved health, higher nutritional yield per acre of farming, less pollution, and compassion for animals. There is another advantage to not eating animal products. Most meat and poultry comes from animals raised in extremely confining and unsanitary conditions that cause nervousness, anxiety, and suffering. Humans ingest the negative vibrations that dwell within these animals when they eat their flesh.

It is not necessary to be a vegetarian to function in a positive manner but it is a goal towards which we are evolving. As a person rids himself of various toxins such as caffeine, smoking, and alcohol he feels better and acts better. He has no desire to return to his former habits and their debilitating effects. So it is with the removal of every negative sheath of behavior as we advance through life. There is nothing to argue about. When you are ready for the next step take it, until then live in accordance with your values, but be open to change.

The last strategy calls for the promotion of holistic health, a term that has various connotations and interpretations in our society. Some prefer the term alternative healing. Whatever the term or definition, humankind has taken care of itself and survived in good health long before the arrival of Western thought and the AMA. It did so with methods of healing that used the energy of the universe along with various poultices and herbal ministrations. Western medicine’s materialistic orientation can only deal with effects. It does not realize that behind every effect there is a cause and if that cause is removed the effect will disappear as well. The major cause of our illnesses comes from not adhering to the first three strategies of Objective IV of our mission statement. The fourth strategy deals with the malfunction that occurs in the human body from time to time.

Please note that the four strategies are not “new age” concepts, but practices prophets and spiritual leaders have promoted since antiquity. In the book of Genesis we are told that the fruit of the bush that bears seed, and the fruit of the tree that bears seed were made for man to eat. That’s vegetarianism. Jesus healed the sick and taught his disciples to do likewise. That’s holistic healing. Jeremiah made clear that God provided all that we need and Paul informed us that there is no single thing that we have not received. We cannot improve upon what God has made. That’s a basis for a toxic free environment and organic farming.

God created a perfect universe. Our challenge is not to improve upon what God has created but to learn how to live within that creation. Doing so is living naturally. That’s the mission statement of Men’s Action: foster a natural way of life for humankind.

I have written frequently that the purpose of the masculine gender is to provide the environment and means for the feminine gender to bring forth life and nurture it. Objective IV serves as one of the steps in attaining that goal.

In order to change society we must first change the way we think as individuals. The way we live expresses our thoughts and motivates others to change. We must be examples of our beliefs as best we can, and by doing so we will be on our way to changing this materialistic society into one that is in harmony with the universe.

THE LACK OF NURTURING IN WESTERN SOCIETY

I have repeatedly stated that the purpose of the masculine gender is to provide the environment and means for the feminine gender to bring forth life and nurture it. Western society rarely uses the term nurture. Instead, it uses the term care and refers to those in need of it as children, aged, indigent, homeless, poor, under-privileged, hungry, uneducated, sick, infirm, orphaned, handicapped, and jobless.

The “care” expressed for others in Western society focuses on the need to sustain them physically. Requests for care for the needy can be heard in the rhetoric of those in the pulpit, in politics, and in various humanitarian and community organizations. The solution recommended by all of them requires contact with the appropriate institution that has the facilities and structure to provide for the specific needs of those requiring help.

The institution-oriented nature of Western thought has made the institutionalized care of humans a cultural export. Day care centers, orphanages, old age homes, mental asylums, homes for unwed mothers, and homeless centers are all of Western origin.

The institutions that have the most complete range of services including provisions for food, shelter, recreational facilities, medical care, vocational opportunities, and educational facilities are prisons; however, prisoners do not seem to be particularly happy. On the other hand, people on the outside of the prisons do not seem to be happy either. Depression is running rampant for people inside the cages and outside of them. Could the reason be that the institutionalized care of people is inhuman and unnatural? Could it be that institutionalization—which is a prison mentality—does not make for happy people?

The gross materialism of Western thought has reduced human needs to material considerations even though the great Master has stated clearly that man does not live by bread alone. Nurturing can only begin when society understands that truism.

What is the difference between walking in the doorway of your home or the entrance to a prison cell? The prison might have more material facilities than the home. Is it freedom? Then what is the difference between walking into your home or your barracks on the army post or your cabin aboard a naval vessel? Army posts and naval vessels offer all sorts of amenities free or at low cost that are not normally found in the home or in small communities. Prisons, army posts, naval vessels, universities, and institutions provide for material needs and desires, sometimes better than the home does, but still we all yearn to be in the home. What draws a person to his or her home?

The home contains special attention transmitted by a loving wife and dedicated mother to all within her jurisdiction. She transmutes spiritual love into physical expression. She infuses all her actions and activities with unconditional love. When she cooks she adds an ingredient to all her food not found in stores; it’s called love. When she prepares a meal she envisions the effect it will have upon those whom she loves. When she does the laundry she adds love to every fold. When she makes the beds she tucks the sheets with love. This special attention is called nurturing.

Women who dedicate their lives to nurturing tend to be very happy, and free of severe emotional issues. They exude love and in turn they are filled with divine love. They create a loving aura in their homes that draws members of the family to it. The warm and caring environment of the home affects all who reside there and helps them to live a more relaxed, productive, and caring life.

The nurturing woman needs a safe and secure environment in which to function; mother’s milk can only flow freely when she is safe and secure. Family provides a secure environment.

Unfortunately mother no longer has a safe and secure environment in which to function. Government has eliminated the authority of the natural provider of a safe environment—man. Women now are “independent” and on their own. They can work, vote, own property and provide for themselves. The children whom they once nurtured have been turned over to the state for “care,” not nurturing. Her children live in an institutionalized environment for most of their childhood and are conditioned for further institutionalization upon adulthood.

These conditions make for unhappy women with the result that their primary health condition is debilitating depression. The children raised in institutionalized care aren’t doing well either. America now has the most violent boys in the world, which makes them prime candidates for penal institutions, where close to three million men now live. Three million girls now suffer from depression and close to one million grade school boys take Ritalin on a prescribed basis. The World Health Organization announced that the number one health issue of England, the United States and Canada is mental illness. The institutionalized non-nurtured world of Western society isn’t functioning very well.

There is only one species of human life designed for nurturing; it’s called woman.

The only natural institution for a woman to live in is called family. Men make families. Men with authority commensurate with their responsibilities make families. Male authority derives from the natural patriarchal structure of the universe. No patriarchy—no real men. No real men—no families. No families—no nurturing.

If we want to change the conditions of our society we must change the thinking that caused them. To treat the differences in gender as similars is an aberration of nature that inhibits both genders from functioning as they were designed to do. Men must take the initiative and rebuild society along patriarchal lines. Any structure other than patriarchy ultimately results in strong governments that institutionalize the care of people, which dehumanizes them and enslaves them.

Are you ready to take the steps that will provide the environment necessary for women to nurture the race? If so, then let me hear from you.
