The movement's ideology is known as New Humanism, Universal Humanism or simply Siloism. Siloist ideology Silo said that normally, people live in a state of "inner violence" caused by human desire, which leads one to subject others to violence as well. The term "violence" as used here means not only physical violence, but also encompasses for example "economical violence", which is the exploitation of other people, and for example forcing one's way of life on other people. To heal the world's suffering, then, Silo said that each individual must go through a process of self-transformation that would calm their desire. Silo likened the state before self-transformation to sleep in a parable, and said that true liberation required self-transformation. This self-transformation is to be achieved through m ...
