Social myths about human nature
- Hold the individual back.
- Prevent success.
- Cause poor behavior and world problems.
Are you a good person?
Yes, you are a good person! Don’t ever think otherwise. You are consciousness and all consciousness is good at the core.
“Political, scientific, religious, educational, medical and economic forces in our society are telling you that there is something wrong with you. I am here to tell you that there is nothing wrong with you — that’s contemporary superstition being projected.”

The new science
Internal Science & International Philosophy
International philosophy is based on the idea that we are fundamentally good rather than naturally inclined to do wrong, with the knowledge that what we believe is physically manifest. Flawed beliefs generate flawed behavior in the same way a faulty operating program in a good computer will cause it to run improperly.
But even bad actions and mistakes are good because they are part of the learning process. We don’t see the full scope of any one action, if we did we would see how even the most despicable acts have positive outcomes in the greater scheme of things. Besides teaching us what not do do, they often provide a basis for the unlimited learning that we experience afterwards, which helps everyone connected to the event to be a better person.
Human nature is good, not bad
“Did you know that your inner nature is good.
Current beliefs are based on the idea that human nature is not very good. Negative beliefs about human nature are the most unfortunate kind of self-fulfilling prophecies for individuals and society. These kinds of beliefs can prevent your success and good things from entering your life. They tend to ruin relationships and attract negative experiences.
“These kinds of core beliefs lead to distrust of people and also to behavior that is not worthy of trust. When people are not trusted, society unravels. This is what is happening in our civilization. This is so because thoughts do create matter and reality.” —William Eastwood.
The way people treat you is based on whether they think you are a good person or not. In most cases, more people than you realize do not think you are a good person.
What is driving people apart in our societies is the prevailing assumption that human nature is not generally good. If a person mistakenly thinks you are a bad person, they treat you badly and that treatment tends to elicit a response from you that they will think confirms their belief.
Because of the self-fulfilling nature of beliefs, the world’s prevailing beliefs are causing virtually all of the social problems in our world. Those social problems then lead to most other problems.
Crime, distrust and unscrupulous behavior are a product of false science and the myth that human nature is untrustworthy.
If your behavior has been affected it does not mean that you are not a good person, it means that you have made mistakes or are involved in a learning experience. Even if you have done something you believe is evil, it does not mean you are a bad person, it only means that you have done something that you now regret. That action does not define you and it takes place on the surface. Deeper levels of you psyche reflect the true altruistic nature of who you are.
What you are is good, not bad: This applies to all consciousness, & everything is consciousness

Excessive guilt is destructive
When people you love are mean to you it may cause you to feel unjustified guilt, and the feeling of guilt is a powerful emotion. Guilt is artificial when it is felt for unjustified reasons. Artificial guilt can have an immediate effect on you and your life.
When it is a runaway, unchecked emotion, guilt will destroy everything in your life. It’s how we feel when the bully makes a laughing stock of us in public or an authority cuts us down. We react with artificial guilt and this is a powerful form of self-destruction.
There are big problems in our civilization right now. Most of them stem from inaccuracies in science that are leading to the kind of problem I just mentioned.
Einstein on the importance of our beliefs
“The most important decision we make is whether we believe we live in a friendly or hostile universe.”
“The most important question a person can ask is, ‘Is the Universe a friendly place?'”
— Albert Einstein
Behavior is a product of belief. Our belief systems generate corresponding behavior in the same way a hard drive or operating system in a computer dictates how the computer will function and what it can or cannot do.

“Consciousness is altruistic, and that means that you are an amazing, powerful and beautiful person.“

Why is this website & philosophy so positive?
“Consciousness creates the universe and so it is a positive consciousness that holds the solutions people are looking for. I have applied that principle and the positive energy I am projecting is changing everything, including the way I present myself and my ideas. The site you are on is a result of positive consciousness.” —William Eastwood
What is altruism?
Altruism is the desire to do good for the sake of doing so. You are a good person because all consciousness is inherently good, and you are individualized consciousness.
Specific beliefs, however, can override your natural desire to be altruistic, but the underlying nature of your consciousness will always be altruistic.
If evil seems to exist, it is because our beliefs manifest. It is not an intrinsic truth, it is a created truth, and there is a big difference between the two.
The Altruistic movement
If we implement the new science, where does this lead?
Create world peace (recommended)
Consciousness is altruistic. The impulsive life force within consciousness moves us in those ways which serve ourselves and others best. I am aware that many people do not believe that impulses are altruistic.
The reason why so many people distrust life, impulses and reality is due to traditional myths about life and human nature.
People will dam up “impulses to act (in relatively harmless ways)” because they distrust those impulses. That act of damming up the life force leads to stronger impulses that eventually then do seem untrustworthy. If we had trusted our impulses enough to act on them in small appropriate ways, we would not have built up repressed energy that can then explode.
Everything in existence is a form of consciousness and everything is cooperative and creative. All actions lead toward good. Believing otherwise creates the experience of what the belief suggests. The solution is to be reeducated in the correct paradigm.
INTERNATIONAL PHILOSOPHY
Your thoughts create your reality
Find out just how intelligent you are!.
ROUND ONE of the new intelligence test!.
Civilization is based on the mainstream belief that impulses are untrustworthy, misleading and in some cases evil. Impulses are the thrust of energy propelling action and giving direction. Impulses are actually altruistic and cooperative. Body impulses move the cells, and our impulses move our legs so that we can make breakfast and guide us to do what fulfills our desires and potential.
We would understand what altruism is if we trusted our nature. We would understand what altruism is if we were not hypnotized by myths. We would understand what altruism is if we believed in ourselves, and if we believed we were altruistic we would be fulfilled and successful.
The problem is that our mainstream myths force us to misread our nature and reality.
“Each person reads and experiences reality according to what they believe exists. If they hold a view of reality within themselves that is inherently limiting and/or negative, then this inner subjective reality and nothing else is projected outward into events and experiences so that everything conforms with their beliefs. They then cannot see anything outside of their own worldview. In effect, they become blind to any information that would free them from their inner and outer restricted reality.
“The negative focus on perceived enemies or opposition combined with the overlooked and unchecked power of consciousness and focus has been causing the world severe problems for a very long time only because we do not see the obvious.
“The solution is to understand that consciousness is altruistic.
“The people that seem evil don’t believe that the human spirit is basically good, and that’s the problem.
“My work is to explain that this is a scientifically validated fact in order to bring an end to global conflict and assist humanity in advancing into a new stage of incredible fulfillment, both private and public.”
— William Eastwood
How can I be an altruistic person?
To be altruistic is to be good for the sake of being good, which is an inherent inclination of consciousness and what you are. Most definitions indicate selflessness in service to others, but that may be misleading. Our values from the past are sometimes very narrow.
If everyone was selfless in service to others to the point of not accepting good into their lives there would be no one we could be good to because there would be no one to accept our generosity.
To complicate matters more, our first and foremost responsibility is to ourselves because when we are happy, we automatically want to help others to feel as good as we do.
There are steps you can take if you are concerned about your effect on others when you help yourself. When you wield your consciousness to help yourself you naturally do not want to harm others. After using willpower and visualization to benefit yourself can say the universal mantra that “I now release this thoughtform to manifest for the higher good of all concerned.”
Am I good or bad?
Consciousness itself is naturally altruistic. When you are happy you automatically want other people to be happy too.

THE DRAGON SLAYER PROPHECY™
In 2026, Earth Network™ & William Eastwood unveil, The Only Actionable Path Forward for Humanity™. MISSION GREAT CIVILIZATION™ is a complete plan to restructure world systems that introduces INTERNAL SCIENCE™ & INTERNATIONAL PHILOSOPHY™ through film. The Film is a mission-driven project intended to serve as a catalyst for real-world global changes—including the implementation of Universal Basic Income, & a change in European mythology to unite world faiths.
This is a project born of absolute realism, driven by a profound humanitarian purpose to assist the human condition. William Eastwood’s bloodline is traced definitively to the 14 Plantagenet Kings of England. This historical lineage serves as the foundation for a mission to reclaim ancient wisdom for modern global humanitarian aid, transformation and global unity.
There will be much more revealed in the upcoming film. The books are the "Insider Blueprint" for the film.
Is everyone altruistic?
Yes, deep inside everyone is altruistic. You do not have to strain or do something good to be altruistic. You do not need to think that helping yourself is somehow wrong, or selfish. If you love yourself and others, you will naturally be concerned for the welfare of others.
It is helpful to make it a point to help others, however, and to be sensitive to the feelings of others. At their core, however, everyone is altruistic. But that does not mean that people cannot diverge from their authentic nature in their thoughts and behavior. Our beliefs, thoughts and emotions determine behavior and how we act toward others.

When you know the cause and solution to these problems you can change your world
Can I be good to myself and be altruistic?
Yes. Traditional values can easily confuse us, and so I am clarifying a related issue for you. There is nothing wrong with being good to yourself. Because we are all part of a single movement of energy, when we help ourselves all consciousness benefits.
If you help yourself, you automatically help others.
Being an altruistic person is very simple, you need only be true to who you are. When you are accepting all good into your life you are so happy and thrilled that you want others to have all the good you possess, and you begin helping them.
By helping them to be as happy as you are you experience the greatest joy possible.
When you are happy and you are experiencing synchronicity as you manifest good events, others take notice and want to know how and why you are so happy and achieving so much. How do you do it? people ask. People then begin to replicate your methods.
This is how you can help people.
If, however, you are unhappy because you deprive yourself in service to others, people do not want to be like you and are repelled by your unhappiness. Your energy is not high if you are unhappy, and you do not create coincidences or manifest events that reflect high energy.
The bottom line is that everyone does what they want to do regardless of what they say. If they sacrifice something for something else, it is because they want “that something else.” If you want to help others, then in helping others you are doing what you want to do and are therefore not really sacrificing.
People who are trying to be good often feel that they are not good. Their actions are attempts to be good or prove to themselves and the world that they are good people when deep down inside they think they are not good.
It is much better to learn why your consciousness is altruistic, and how your gains are automatically shared by the entire world. If we were all to accept our goodness, and all that we deserve, we would all live a new existence.
The science supports this view. Quantum physics reveals that we are all part of a single energy movement. Do not take this to mean that you are not an individual. You are the portion of All-That-Is that is ______________ (your name).
“Believing you are good will allow you to create good events in life.
“Faulty beliefs may generate seeming evil behavior and cause bad choices, but no matter what you did, everyone eventually enters the light after death and comes home to the pure intelligent love of which they are composed. The self you are is altruistic.
“If existence is a manifestation of consciousness and that consciousness is creative and good, so are you, because that is what you are made of.
“When you believe you are good, you let yourself have fun, and when you are having a great time, you want others to have a great time. But if you believe you are bad, then you will feel miserable, and misery loves company.
“By having fun, you help others to feel good and do the same. The natural self wants to help others and will joyfully take the time to do so.
“The natural self knows it is greatness, but it also knows that everyone else is.”

EASTWOOD: There are conflicts and violence worldwide that tell me the majority are creating by default, are divisive or both.
CLIENT: But why an all-ages book?
EASTWOOD: Someone told me that mental health expenditures in Singapore are estimated at nearly $16 billion (about $49 per person in the US) a year, a nation of only 5.5 million people, and the problem is not exclusive to adults.

You are an equal to others and are a part of the All-That-Is. If you cannot accept this fact, then you are denying your altruism and goodness. It does not matter how much you help others or how selfless you are if you cannot accept who and what you are.
You will give yourself permission to do what you want to do when you recognize that you are an altruistic portion of God. Then you will discover that you really do want to help others. You will also learn that when you help yourself you are helping others.
Thus, selflessness is not really a good measure of holiness. Altruism never asks for sacrifice of self, pleasure or desire.

People are generally good, although their actions are sometimes misguided. The saying, “the ends does not justify the means,” denotes that we should not engage in questionable activities even in service of wholesome goals, even if those goals serve others. This is generally accepted as being true and we agree.
What is autonomy
An autonomous person is a person who is capable of making their own decisions. You can be autonomous by making good decisions based on intuition and logic.

The new view of altruism within human nature
The paradigm of the most advanced and credible science in the world requires that we correct our view of human nature and ask ourselves “is everything in the universe altruistic?” Those who are considered selfish according to mainstream psychology are in fact be altruistic in light of the new science.
Materialism is based on the idea that we live in a physical universe. This universe has been traditionally defined as being composed of physical elements. The idea was that electrons or the smallest basic components of matter were little solid particles like BBs or pellets.
Quantum mechanics has revealed to scientists that the universe is not composed of little solid physical particles. No such particles even exist. The universe is now understood to be composed of electromagnetic fields. A particle is a disturbance or abstraction in a field of electromagnetic energy.
Quantum mechanics is extremely accurate. It is tested and has been used in the development of advanced scientific systems and machines with complete success.
If this energy that forms the universe is the basis of all interconnected consciousness, then we need to ask ourselves if consciousness itself is altruistic.
If consciousness is altruistically inclined, then so we are also.
Important to the definition of altruism is the fact that quantum physicists have discovered that there is one interconnected unlimited field of electromagnetic energy. This does not imply that there is no individuality, but it does tell us that we are connected to our environment and other people through energy pathways.
It also tells us that there is no separate and distinct physical particle as was believed by traditional science.
If we believe in simple matter particles it is easier to accept the orthodox view that the universe is a chance creation that has evolved through selfish competition. But we now know that the universe is intelligent and composed of energy containing information that appears to be alive.
If the universe did not happen by chance, then we must conclude it happened by intent.
According to David Bohm, a famous physicist that wrote the textbook on quantum theory for the major universities in the 1950s, and friend of Einstein, electrons appear to be alive.
Paraphrasing Bohm:
“When acting as a group, electrons appear to behave like flocks of birds, schools of fish or swarming bees, moving together in unison.”
The point I have been leading up to, is that for this energy to have accomplished what it has, i.e. complex electromagnetic fields and intelligent electrons, it must have some form of good intent.
David Bohm’s observation suggests that electrons possess good intent.
If the universe possesses intent, is that intent good?
The universe is conscious and alive and is of good intent. How do we come to this conclusion? There are some points to be made in support of this premise:
- The universe is complex and orderly.
- The universe has not destroyed itself, nor has consciousness.
- There is a sense of meaning in our consciousness.
The creation of the incredibly complex human body, universes, including multi-dimensional universes, human consciousness and love, beauty and charity, all suggest the universe is of good intent.
And you are an individualized portion of the universe.

What Is Altruism? How Can I Be an Altruistic Person & Autonomous Individual? Am I Good or Bad?
In my studies of quantum physics, I have learned that everything in the universe, manifest and un-manifest, is part of a single unified energy movement. The lesson in this is that no matter how you slice the pie, the ingredients are the same.
If consciousness is good, everything, including yourself, is good, if that energy is bad, then all things are bad, including yourself.
Act in a measured manner and in a way that you intellectually deem to be appropriate and helpful.
