“What are the causes of monkeypox?” (Quora)
Michael Laitman, On Quora: “What are the causes of monkeypox?“
Not just monkeypox, but all kinds of diseases emerge internally from within humanity as a result of our overblown egocentric desire.
The more we evolve, the more the human ego grows, and the coarser the ego we live in, the greater problems we bring upon ourselves. They emerge from the depths of nature; our very own nature. In other words, if we fail to work out how to regulate our overblown egos, then we continually use them and bear witness to new diseases and misfortunes that surface.
Likewise, if the ego continues growing unabated, we will unleash more and more negative phenomena that we will be unable to handle. It is like we hold Pandora’s box within us, and we either let all kinds of problems run rampant from it, or we learn how to retrain it, correct it, and stop it from breaking out of its depths.
As the cause of all kinds of diseases and misfortunes is within us, so too the solution depends on us. We need to learn how to conduct human relations in ways that will not let the ego surface. By definition, the human ego is a force that prioritizes self-benefit over benefiting others, and which enjoys from being more well-off than others. It is the essence of nature, and all problems we encounter in our lives—from diseases through to problems in our relationships, finances and the ecology—swirl around it. The more we use the ego in an unrestricted manner, the greater the problems we bring upon ourselves on all scales: biological, physical and social. It thus makes sense that such nascent ailments as monkeypox materialize, and we can expect worse ones to come about.
Therefore, if we wish to discuss the root cause of monkeypox, then it is none other than the human ego. With our regular means in our world, we never reach such a realization because it runs against the same nature. Instead, we spend truckloads of money on research, technologies and medicines, and all we ever reach are Band-Aid solutions, at best. Eventually, we will have no choice but to work against our own egoistic nature. That is the antidote to all diseases and other problems on every level.
We should thus continually raise awareness of the cause of our every disease and problem as rooted in the overblown human ego, and their comprehensive solution in the ego’s correction, via educational means. The more such awareness spreads throughout humanity, the more we will find our lives change trajectory to a positive course, becoming filled with harmony, peace, balance and good health.
