We can gain an insight into the power of selfless cooperation by looking at ant and bee colonies. Bees’ extreme selflessness was made apparent in a 2007 documentary titled Silence of the Bees which reported that ‘when bees become sick they sacrifice themselves and leave the hive to die to prevent infecting the rest of the colony’, and how ‘in the summer, the workers only live around 30 days because they literally work themselves to death’. Understandably, this power of selflessness has not been something we humans wanted to acknowledge or think about because it has been too confronting of our present ego-hungry, selfish, materialistic existence. We have had to live an alienated, escapist, materialistic life because we haven’t been able to live a secure, honest, spiritualistic life, but now, with the human condition explained, we can. worldtransformation/freedom-book1-the-transformed-state-will-repair-the-world
