So the best way for preparing for future security is not weapons and surveillance but mind training.
Spontaneously we are born dualistic The basic dualism is between me and the all the others. I have this self and it is in conflict with the others. Often this is developed into the paradigm of us against them.
We do not need any mind training for being dualistic.
Nevertheless, there are a lot of spontaneous practices leading to more and deeper dualism. Conflicts can widen, depression can become chronic.
Non dualism is a kind of natural law. If we try to break it, it is just a mistake. It does not work. It is like neglecting gravity.
The understanding of non dualism can be more or less deep. There are three distinct levels.
The first one is just rational. It is better to live in peace and harmony than in war and despair.
The second level is romantic love. You and me, let us build a nice world!
The third level is great compassion. It can be activated as the heart aspect of mind. It is literally a heart effect rather than a brain effect.
To reach this level, both psychological and physical means are used.
