  • What is the connection between war, human gender division, and personal evolution? Making new connections between things already known is a very interesting included third that reconciles the contradiction between the information already acquired and the new information, the inventions, the discoveries. The transdisciplinary methodology also refers to the principle of the included third, the projection of a phenomenon in at least three levels of Reality in order to understand it objectively and the continuous causal triangulation. In order to understand the phenomenon of peace and war we must, therefore, study the interactions between the most relevant levels of Reality regarding this matter and their consequences. A war or peace result in a certain level of Reality is a phenomenon composed of itself and its opposite in the adjacent level of Reality. Hence, from the perspective of circular causality, a war in the physical level has always as cause a war in another level. War between states belongs to a logical chain that ends with the comfort zone of the self-calming of the individual. The responsibility equates with inverting a contradiction: instead of war in a certain level we must have peace and instead of peace in a certain level we must have war. The circular causality specific to the animal level, when applied, triggers and projects within the human level a correspondent circularity between the emotional violence and physical violence, grounded on the contradiction, lacking the presence of the included middle of the mind, between masculine, physical power and feminine, emotional power. The failure to obtain peace, represented by the triggering of the physical or emotional conflicts, is, in reality, the general resultant of the failure of the personal relationships within the social system at a given time. However, the falling into the animal level is possible, only because there also exist the possibility of ascending to the cosmic level, of personal evolution. In conclusion, the recurrent war is just another price paid for the validity of the individual path. We cannot take the path for anyone else but ourselves. There is a contradiction between nothing can be done and anything is possible and its included third is that something can be done though. This something is a type of education that is able to provide the circumstances necessary for real personal experiences and understanding.
