The natural force in the struggle for survival
driving evolution towards higher states of consciousness
and the ultimate state of absolute security
is personal ambition
ambition flows down two rivers
that converge in the ocean of desire
the hierarchical struggle to climb both
the material social ladder
and the invisible spiritual ladder
ambition finds satisfaction and security
in emotional adoration
in the sense of being more able
and feeling more desirable than others
and so Nature strives
for expressions of physical health and beauty
and spiritual strength of conviction
material awards, prizes, property
topped by a golden crown on the head
advertises social victory
an exclusive relationship and appointment with Almighty God
proclaims religious victory over lesser gods
the whole towering edifice of personal ambitions
supported by the foundation of humble effort
at the bottom of the pile
