The Operating System of Living |
Our justice system. Our society. Our rules and laws. It is the current system. Society is the Operating System of Life.
The concept of the Operating System of Life is a comparison to a computer's operating system. The computer runs a program that is the operating system. It doesn't do anything itself but creates the environment for which application software can run in. It is the structure that allows the computer to do useful work.
Similarly, the government and society are our operating system. It creates the infrastructure that we live in and work in. It includes the Internet as well as all forms of communication. It involves food distribution, education, law, justice, roads, energy, the environment, medical care, everything involving the fabric of society. Religion and the Tree of Knowledge are also part of the Operating System of Life.
Our dharma of the Church of Realty includes a commitment to improve the Operating System of Life. We are to be involved in helping to make sure society runs smoothly and is fair and just for all. Because we acknowledge that growing the Tree of Knowledge is central to our exploring reality as it really is - part of our mission is to ensure a better society in order to grow our understanding of understanding. We therefore commit ourselves to supporting the infrastructure of society and the study and support of the Operating System of Life.
