The domination system (coined by [[Who was Walter Wink|Walter Wink]]) is the one that we live in currently. In it, force is used to "make" people "do the right thing". We are told this is necessary to "hold society together" and to "prevent everything from descending into chaos". It is built on one central false idea: >   "1) There is a right way to be and >   2) someone knows what that is." (Marshall Rosenberg) This is called [[The Myth of Authority]]. If we accept this idea, then the only question left is _whose_ domination we will accept and how people should be [[What would a non-violent world be like|punished]] for disobedience. In a domination system, we tell others 'below us' what to do. Parents command children. Bosses command employees. Generals command soldiers. Lawmakers command the populace. Police and the military enforce these "commands" to the people. Who knows what is best for us? Our priest? Our president? Our king? Our father? [[Why is it hard to leave the domination system]] Also: [[Healing Trauma Map of Content (MoC)]] And: [[Perfect Relating - Map of Content (MoC)]] <!-- Several forms of [healing, consciousness and awareness expansion](http://www.bayraba.com/how-to-heal-emotional-wounds-self-empathy-work/) can be used for this. And perhaps the fastest way to do this is through meditations, such as those found in the [Vigyan Bhairav tantra](http://www.bayraba.com/440/osho-book-of-secrets-index-page/). Once we have dropped the bonds holding us back in our power, we can begin exercising our energetic flexibility and power in getting what we want (meeting our core needs) in this world. This will enable us all to work from a level of openness and wholeness that was previously known only to very few. -->
