The homelessness
Translator: Ashitaka Asidaka Arraignment: March 23, 2024
Q:This question is about the homeless,How can homelessness be better addressed on our current planet?I was homeless myself,I try to help people in need,Can you suggest an innovative solution to this problem?How does the Federation solve the problem of homelessness on other planets?Can we adopt similar countermeasures as we transition to a newer, cleaner planet?
Basha:In the Federation, we rarely encounter homeless people in a negative context,This is a relatively unique negative phenomenon on your planet,So it starts with the individual’s state of mind, how they see themselves, whether they feel valued,This is a very deep and complex topic that must be tackled both psychologically and materially to provide shelter for the “man who has nothing.”For some people on your planet are enveloped by a psychology that actually prevents them from having sanctuary.There have been experiments on your planet where people you call homeless were given the ability to have homes,Being given the ability to get what they need, giving them a sum of money to see how they spend it and whether they will use it to take care of themselves,
Many of them simply squander these resources, refusing in any way to use whatever they can to shelter themselves, to take care of themselves when given these tools,Because they have a deeper psychological tendency to accept help,Some homeless people simply refuse to believe that if they accept people’s help, they won’t be controlled by them,They will not have obligations to those who help them, and it is more important for them not to assume these obligations in their eyes,That doesn’t mean they’re really obligated,But if their psychology makes them see accepting help as an obligation, limits their freedom, limits their sense of freedom,They may actually choose to remain homeless, although they can get help from others,So you have to explore the deep psychology, and you have to let people find their own self-worth.Again, this is in the context of what we call a negative,
Some people just like to live outdoors. There is no standard or traditional sense of home. They can support themselves very easily. It’s like camping forever.
So, again, you have to assess whether the person is really choosing to do this for various reasons that may be positive,It may also have to do with the path they have chosen in life. By interacting with a person who is free to engage with nature in a nontraditional outdoor, nontraditional sheltered way, can be beneficial to their soul growth, or beneficial to the growth of others around them.
So, you have to assess what’s going on, is this being created for positive or negative reasons,Whether it’s part of their soul’s path to learn something, and what impact it has on themselves and others,But the deeper psychology is their view of self-worth.
And then in due course you can help,You can pool resources or rearrange resources to build shelters for people, just as many provide shelter for those who really need it,For those who are truly capable of taking care of it,Provide shelter to people who truly respect the help they receive, and they can improve their self-esteem and self-worth by having a supportive place.
So for this particular case, you can take many different approaches and directions,I suggest you investigate them all, but note the deep psychology behind the choices people make consciously or unconsciously to experience them.
Q:Thank you.
