The Human Outlook of Today: A Bitter and Sorrowful Reflection of Humanity's Lost Path in the Soul-less, Mechanized Storm of Modernity
Modernity, with all its glitter, has forgotten the soul and reduced humans to mere tools serving the cold, emotionless interests of dominating powers. In a world where human values have been pushed to the margins, the measure of a person’s honor is no longer based on virtue and knowledge but on wealth, military strength, and political influence. Science—intended to be the beacon of human advancement and enlightenment—has become a tool of oppression, violence, and subjugation.
In the contemporary world, instead of ascending to higher levels of awareness and spiritual enlightenment, humanity sinks into the swamp of animalistic competition and the lust for power. The essence of human existence, which is a blend of light, love, and meaning, has been forgotten in exchange for the illusion of dominance and superiority. In this dark journey, humanity has lost its way, bringing its own kind, the living nature, and even the very essence of existence to the slaughter of destruction.
In an era where superpowers have taken control of the political, economic, and media life of the world, there is no longer room for superhumanity, super-virtue, or super-ethics. This incomplete evolution, which only thrives in physical and technical dimensions, has deprived the world of the essence of human values, creating a soulless, meaningless world. A world where happiness, peace, awareness, and spiritual enlightenment have turned into distant, forgotten dreams, putting humanity on the brink of inner collapse and moral extinction.
This situation is not just a crisis; it is a call that arises from the depth of human conscience, a bitter warning that calls everyone to wake up. In an era where globalization is accelerating and technology is advancing at an overwhelming pace, more than ever, humanity needs to pause and return to itself. True greatness is not found in the glitter of machines or the deafening noise of weapons, but in the honesty of the heart, the tenderness of feeling, the innate dignity, and the high ethics of humanity.
The world today is thirsty for love, not power; it needs empathy, not competition; it longs for peace, not chaos. The salvation of humanity lies in returning to the original principles of humanity: in reviving empathy, in safeguarding the dignity of every living being, and in nurturing a spirit that still beats for light, for peace, for meaning.
If humans had learned to think not for dominance, but for unity; not standing against, but standing together; and not living against, but for each other, then a new world would be born: a world with the dew of love, with the horizon of reconciliation, with the breeze of compassion. A world where humans and all creatures are not enemies but companions on the journey of creation.
I hope for the day when the light of truth illuminates the hearts, and a world full of love and peace is born.
With love,
