It has been suggested in many different forms, “develop a following and progress from there.”
I could do that. I had the opportunity to test myself as the result of passing out 8,000 “BLitTeR Magic” flyers door to door in Old Town Alexandria, VA. I was invited to read some poetry that was on the web site at that time.
I only had about ten minutes, and I blew them away. I’m so empowered with this knowledge there was immediate and strong connection with the audience.
I was handing out flyers to people going in and one guy said, “Keep your trash”. Afterwards he made a public display of apologizing. Half a dozen people were going to get involved, we’d talk tomorrow.
And the ‘big dog’ growled that night.
Anyway, I could personally succeed on the path of preacher/teacher. I could become respected (by followers) and wealthy. BLitTeR would be lost in the BS.
The word/symbol and its simple meaning must remain a single point of understanding to cross the barriers of Language and Culture.
Going the preacher/teacher route requires some sort of dogma, the followers bite into different parts of it and the group is defined by it. The simple plan would be obscured by the dogma and identity of the group.
I know that I am ignorant of a whole lot of marketing stuff. But I do believe that this is a marketing problem that has not been encountered before. It’s kinda like religion but it cannot be like a religion and succeed.
What would it take to ‘teach the world a word’?
Given the uncertain times we are experiencing, do you think the possibility of establishing Unity would be worth the effort?
