"(7. March 2016
As a child I had the last name Hari, so my name Kaisa Hari bought the
associations "keisari" = emperor and "tsaari" = Russian tsar (emperor).
So I took it to my task to cultivate some of the good sides that people
need to have to be good or at least worthy emperors, but I did not
connect that to the emperor of China but to rulers of vast areas in
general. At the same time I valued grass roots democracy in the Finnish
way and not kingdoms as forms of government, much less empires.)
(24. August 2016
I did not have some role or ways of behaviour emperor like, not even
sometimes. Instead I thought of emperors as persons who arrange things
that people in wide areas need, who find solutions to difficult problems
on wide areas of the nation and do that via thinking, discussing,
understanding the world, cultures, different types of people, how they
interact, what they need and how to arrange such, etc. So I thought of
the position of an emperor like an ordinary citizen who in some task
deserves well such a high position, negotiating about the affairs of the
state. But emperor managing to do that more often, solve problems,
negotiate, discuss, find solutions, support good causes, know things and
workings of the nation and it's neighbours well - kind of like a
relative for an ordinary person, taking part in discussion about
something because one has often something valuable to offer, worthy of
that role and partly because he/she is often around. So I thought that
emperor needs support, needs to show his/her skilledness again and again
and again.)"
13. April 2019 In high position generally it is important that such jobs are done with good quality for the good of the country and the world and the people, animals etc affecvted. So high position isn't usually given very high rights to decide about things in the country and the world. Instead in important questions like whether a country enters a war, many groups of the country, possibly all, are listened to, all wise views are listened to and facts taken into account wisely and a synthesis build and that wise view formed by all wise together and by the interests of the different groups affected, decides the important things instead of someone commanding. Sometimes it is somehow good to say that someone decided the thing, but that is just figurehead like or like a journalist explaining. It is important that the best options ought to be chosen in important matters of the country, and so all wise ought to have the possibility of affecting things responsibly and with good quality, and so it is unlikely that empires would have worked well with dictator like rights of ruler, democracy is much more likely among the wise, just discussions etc and common views about what to do and those are just mentioned as if the emperor had decided building a railroad or the like infrastructure etc.
On the other hand, people in high positions or handling important questions ought to carry responsibility about those things and their effects at large, but in their personal lives they have the same freedom that so responsible, fair, wise, healthily living people with so healthy spirit as they have in these things generally have the right to. If they choose, especially if they choose extansively, something that does not fit together with such tasks, for example if they like some country that does not fit with the important tasks, then they cannot take part in the important tasks, since they have that fault, and so they are more marginal and lower in hierarchy, but on the other hand by being responsible and wise enough, they have earned personal freedom, inside civilized ways, just like others too have on the same conditions the right to.
