The following is from my Rumble response ...

If you truly want to protect people you empower them to protect themselves; that is done with knowledge and skills. Empower enough people so and we need not worry much about protection anymore. We have become mature and in control of ourselves, not much else is needed. Those that aspire to power over others are fools and children. They are often bound to hunger and fear.

The active pursuit of power over others, like everything, is its own karma.

There is no lasting happiness found in control, just momentary sensations, petty accomplishment, and false security, followed by continual and prolonged threats to your control.

The universe is massive, complex and chaotic; the facade of control is maintained with a forced simplification, a blind dumbing down. Reality is not centralized. Behaving as though it is, always leads to lack and disaster. Lies are obvious. They are energetically different. They tell the truth by what they do not say. You can't censor the truth; unlike propaganda; it is ALWAYS obvious to those who are NOT fearful at having a look. Those who take a wider view.

Truth everywhere and always calling. Like your mother, it loves you no matter what you do. But it will let you strangle and suffocate yourself with your muzzles, stays and knots if you refuse to stop struggling against it all.

Esteem is a ladder
With neither top nor bottom
It depends on the shaky regard of others
To keep the climber from falling

Hope is a phantom
To which you sacrifice the day
To grasp at a tomorrow
That will have sacrifice still further

Hope and esteem serve the internal foe
The internal foe is contained within you
A small part of the whole
A grain of sand to the universe
Yet it claims it is a world
Capable of blocking out the sun

Do not grasp; do not climb

For self
Choose not the sand
Choose the universe
Choose the world

You will love the universe
You will love the world
