WHEN MANKIND WILL MEET THEIR CONSCIENCE

Representation of a man's conscience

There is a lot of debate and discussion about conscience in our spiritual writings but do we care about its true meaning. The mankind flourishing on the face of the Earth from thousands of years ago have devoured the resources here and constructed a great Kingdom with their grey matter. But do mankind is kin of their conscience? Humans are exploratory entities; they aren’t much used to stability. They are always like the mighty universal chaos. We talk about the wild as if our civilization has achieved a lot of things regarding submissiveness. We are the greatest wild and savages this ecosystem has ever witnessed. Mankind says itself the greatest creation of god but indeed we are the greatest chaotic destruction ever brought on this planet. Humans often consider dilemmas as their conscience speaking but there is a big thick line between both of them. A man or a woman always thinks that conscience is just their reasoning skills through which they are deconstructing the dilemmas of their lives. But this isn’t so, the dilemma is the presence of two possible options which appear before a person and he or she have to pick one up but the conscience is a human assist which helps him judge a situation or an option and make a decision. It needs to be properly differentiated. For instance, the dilemma is the situation where a person is presented with two possible option but both are anyway a bad idea despite the fact, he or she has to choose one. But conscience helps us judge an option or a decision we are thinking to make. It lets us evaluate the righteousness of the choice according to his or her moral code. Conscience is a recallable memory system that works in a way that when one gets trapped in a situation of judging his own decision the conscience recalls the value system of the man or the women on which it had been fed for years and the conscience answers accordingly.

 What to do when mankind is required to befriend their conscience?  They need to first question their quality of moral value system on which they have always been fed and made to work. Humans don’t get to know their conscience even after growing up because of the arbitrary pattern of the value system which is served in front of them since their infancy. But to make this possible the mankind needs to ask themselves the reason behind the ambiguity of the value system they are raised with. When we will breakdown the deficiency in the moral value system which eventually builds our conscience, we are going to find out the root causes of malpractices and malevolence in our society. Every deed was done in the past which have been presently identified as superstitious malpractices or the ones we are doing in the present and think them as righteous may turn out to be rotten in the future. It’s not that we have been discarding out the negativity in our moral system but we also have lost, lots of positive codes which we should have retained. To examine the lost system of values we need to find proper aspects of our moral value system that what needs to be retained and everything should be questioned critically to make the value system unsullied. The moral code of humans needs to be practical so that their conscience could pick those codes and help humans decide and differentiate between what is righteous and what is not. The practicality of the moral value system will help mankind to befriend their conscience and not tricked by his conscience. Probably every man has experienced once that their conscience has punctuated about their certain decision but from where we are standing today we could look at the whole mankind and experience what havoc humans have created without being interrupted by their conscience, From this place, it seems that man hasn’t ever met his conscience and doesn’t know how it feels like to have one and live with one. Well, we need to start things over to rectify the blunders we have committed and the losses incurred on us which made us suffer. Conscience is the tool that fills humans with humanity, every moral code or the value system is just a theoretical structure but the conscience is the one who plays the whole game along with us. It could vitally help our decisions but there is a condition that we should meet with our conscience in person and develop a kinship.

The alienation of the conscience to mankind had cost us profusely and we cannot afford to pay more. We need conscience as our ally and if we fail to do so history will repeat itself and there will be ugly consequences. The history which is full of mindless warfare, hate, crime, oppression, depression, riots are the product of anonymity of conscience to mankind. We talk about a lot of ourselves but fail to introspect our practices. The practice we have been carrying since ages, a practice that will surely lead us to doom.

When mankind will meet their conscience, He will surely ask where have they been, conscience will question that why should he take charge from today, what is the need for his appointment, The mankind will look open through their innocent eyes and answer through their cunning mind that they were in search of him. But conscience will tell them that he has been close to them since forever but they chose to act on their own without his assistance. Mankind will surely think he is trying to be the master and discard him once again and then be back in their originally artificial form which is derived by the outdated moral value system, and a theoretical conscience will be born again. The real conscience will again migrate to the darkest places with a lump of frustration and bluntness. The confluence of mankind and their conscience will once again be postponed the history will repeat itself because it always does until we act.
