Re: Power of Suggestion
This, indeed, is a good question though with a signature of confusion, and of course most, if not all, of us are confused about one thing or the other pertaining to human nature, specific personality traits and above all freedom to exercise proverbial freedom.
With the first spark of neural activity our brain collects information, accumulate knowledge to infer from. We learn from the environment we live in, from the behavior of people close to us, we register dichotomies in ideals, hypocrisy in behavior, anomalies and irrelevance of generally accepted truth and manipulative strength of lies. We get inspired by people who know what we don’t and try to bring many into our circle of inspiration. All those who get inspiration from us are considered our subjects, a manifestation of social or intellectual power, a sense of satisfaction for a Pharaoh that lives in us. At the same time a Moses is wide awake in us, ready to rumble, ready to knock down any Pharaoh other than one that we harbor deep inside us.
We see existence of many gods, gods that we create, gods we bow down to; mortal gods ephemeral just like the desires that create them. We are born as angles in the world full of devils and die as a devil. We stand accountable for the personality traits ingrained into us, a test of self cure and resilience that man chose for him. Indeed man is at loss.
We are what we are, from the pigments that dictate the color of our skin to the genetic geometry that we inherit from a couple; helpless to decide the inception, we dare to control the extinction; we question the integrity of the integral when question of next breath is questionable. W e cry to exercise freedom for ourselves and with the same breath want an exclusive denial of the same freedom for other people, we want a share of fortunes in the pockets of other people but don’t allow a share of our own pie of good fortune.
