Mind's Eye Re: Spirituality

I fail to see how "done" and "actions" mean spiritual rather than
volitional. There may be spiritual/religious or cultural guidelines in
place but often they are masks for what is really happening or being
judged- and by whom? And what makes definitions universal rather than
localized customs? Often the criteria is based on military victory or
other forms of power of one group over the other- this can be seen in
units as small as the family or a slice of society within a larger
framework. As for the "humanitarian eye", I think history sees
otherwise in human behavior. One can trace influences, however, as a
source of predetermination. If a empire or nation is essentially
militaristic and materialistic, one generally finds a great deal of
propaganda to soothe the brute image and reality.//Speaking of eyes,
have you ever played "Ubi"? My friend ordered one since I had given
mine away as gifts- closeout bargains at $5. now as much as $40. and
beyond.
