Imagine that psychically a collective of people is unconscious of itself. Its still a conscious entity, but is not aware of itself. The collective knows it exists and can act but is not aware of it's causes and effects. It's a tentative consciousness existing on the edge of awareness but never quite coming into the light. Often dipping in and out of awareness like energy continuously appearing and disappearing in an instant on the cusp of the quantum vacuum - the energy, it's fields and particles are there, but you cannot put your finger on them.
Then imagine Power as the net effect of this unconscious collective, this energy. This mind of the collective, is, Power. Often in everyday life we can hear it called society when apparently well organised. Or civilisation on the macro scale. It is Power.
What is Power? It is the force which appears to be doing the bidding of the unconscious collective. If a system participant has less Power, it will not make way relative to the participant that has more of it.
So when the system appears to be a just one, Power is justified. And likewise, when it appears to be unjust, Power is unjustified.
It all depends within which collective group any consenting individual has freely chosen to submit their freedom to.
There's no escaping this. Everyone has to choose a side. Freedom is still available when the individual has confessed that all the above is true. Because then they will have gained knowledge maybe for the first time. And that knowledge from confession is the essence of freedom. The effects of submission in the material world are relatively unimportant.
There was a knock on the door. I finally let Him in.
