The result of competition for survival

What is the competition? Don't think you have to blow the whistle to tug of war is competition; don't think you hold the spear and I hold the shield, the battlefield of life and death is competition. Competition is the two sides have different positions, different purposes, and different interests, competition is to make the same thing to get different results, and competition is to make the two sides get different results. Understanding competition in this way is much deeper and more essential.

So, is survival a competition? Why is survival necessarily competition? What is the purpose of competition? What is the use of competition for survival? We think that competition is the driving force for the existence of everything, we think that competition is the mechanism for the healthy development of things, and we think that competition is the natural law of the survival of the fittest. We were completely wrong, the meaning of competition is artificially set by us, the competition of all kinds is purely imaginary, we fabricate a concept of competition out of thin air, but can not find a purpose for competition, and we are confused by the appearance of things, the logic of competition has plotted to harm us for thousands of years, we are still deep in it, can not extricate ourselves.

Existence is a holistic, interactive, and complementary relationship, not a struggle for survival as we think. What is the purpose of survival? What is the meaning of existence? The purpose and meaning of existence are existence, and there can never be any purpose or meaning other than existence. What is the purpose and meaning of existence? It is active, orderly, stable, and continuous existence, in other words, the purpose of existence is to exist well, to make everything exist well. And the logic of competition, as we set it up and define it, is precisely the logic of anti-existence.

The main point of competition is to compete for the right to exist, to take possession of the resources of existence so that one can exist and so that the other ceases to exist. We use this logic of competition to understand everything as a competitive relationship, and that hundreds of millions of years of existence are the product of competition among all things. This is absurd logic. If existence is the scene of competition, the result of competition, the mutual rejection and destruction of all things, is it consistent with natural logic that hundreds of millions of years of existence are the scene of competition? All things do not interact but compete with each other. Everything is not complementary but mutually exclusive. Everything is not interchangeable but mutually destructive. Would the world still exist? Will this world exist for hundreds of millions of years and will exist for hundreds of millions of years? This is not the absurdity of the existence of the world, but the absurdity of our competitive logic.

There is no competition in the world, but we have deliberately created it. Everything in the world is not competitive, but we have forced it into a competitive relationship. No species, including us human beings, is in any way competitive, but we subjectively see it as such. Let's see what the result of human competition for survival is, regardless of how to explain the behavior of other organisms as competitive. We do not need to use the extreme state of competition to express the result of competition, three wars and human self-destruction are still only a possibility, and competition has long been a real imposition of heavy suffering, so the existence of human beings has become a de facto tragedy. The greatest role of competition consciousness is to position people, to define people. No one of us does not come for survival competition, no one does not live for survival competition, and no one does not live in endless competition. Do not ever think that competition is an external behavior of man, a measure taken by man to survive, competition for survival determines the basic nature of man, that is, determines the attributes of man.

The competition first decides the independence of the individual, otherwise what to compete with? Competition has already decided the basic relationship between people and people, and it is impossible to change the environmental conditions. Competition already determines the course of fate of each person's life, either the internal pain of competitive failure or the external state pain of competitive victory. The most fatal thing is that the sense of competition turns out to be the basic consciousness of man, and all human behavior serves competition, which corrupts the motive of human survival completely. The purpose of competition for survival turns man alive into another kind of ruthless thing, it is no longer man to compete for anything, it is not to compete for non-existence, not to compete is not man, what a bad irrational state. People compete for survival, and let survival meaningless; people to win the right to live so that a lifetime of existence is worthless; people in order to compete for the benefits of survival depleted all the happiness of life. We did not expect that because of competition, we have lost our biological nature as human beings; because of competition, we no longer have human intimacy; because of competition, we have lost everything that we should have.

Because competition is not the biological nature of existence, competition is just the rules of the game that we have set up, a set of rules that have harmed us and misunderstood other creatures. Other creatures have never competed, they have interacted and complemented each other, and they have fulfilled the original laws of existence that have been in operation for hundreds of millions of years. We, on the other hand, have set up the law of competition in an ingenious way, thus destroying human nature and leaving humanity in peace ever since. And how utterly sad is it that nowadays we can no longer live without being in the mode of competitive survival, we can hardly move an inch because without competition, we lose our reason for existence.

In the history of living things, we are the only ones who live for competition and perish for competition, which will not only shame us for ten thousand generations but will also leave us to be laughed at for ten thousand years.
