We are being called to go within for our guidance in all things. This means individuals acting as individuals - not as members of combatative or secretive agenda-ed organizations, religions or other (mis)belief systems. The Nazis did not round up individuals - they rounded up Jews - because all individuals were "labeled" or classified according to their beliefs, actions and associations. This process eliminated the individual human being from consideration. Humans were dehumanized making it easier to accept what was done to them. What goes around comes around.
In my estimation this process of classifying human beings as something other than what they are is the root of all evil. When a human being is judged/labeled as a "terrorist", an "enemy", a "Jew", a Protestant, a Catholic or any other label it makes it easy to then be inhuman in the subsequent treatment of them - because such are then considered as something less than they really are - fellow expressions of God, i.e., Love. Labeling (judgement) is the basis of hate and destruction of others. Awakening occurs ONLY when one consistently sees others as equal expressions of that which we ALL are. It is in the assignment of meaning (judging/labeling) of others we create our Heaven or Hell.
