What on earth makes you think you can stem the tide, and make any significant difference, apart from whatever you can do within to dissolve your personal contribution to the above-mentioned pathological symptoms?

And, by the way, how does the ‘slavery’ you cite affect you personally, directly, on a daily basis? If not at all, or very little, then I suggest you’re in danger of becoming just another deluded ideologue, playing with ideas, concepts – perhaps to provide a sense of purpose that you might otherwise lack?

Yet there are differences in the way of producing thoughts, depending on how much you can witness them, that is, how much you feel you are not dependent on them.

For example, now that I have ‘flu (I recently ate meat and other poisons) I do not have much energy to devote to the creative process of translating my point of view into words, preferring to enjoy my thoughtless healing process.

Each of us contributes with our own unique point of view, with our own ability to make it into thoughts and words, but it is inevitable that describing what is here and now implicitly describes what is missing here and now.

It seems to me, it is my point of view, that we are united by the same destiny of slaves, living in the same system of globalized capital that discharges the costs of its malfunctioning on you and me.

For me, this is a good opportunity to meditate, but with open eyes, to distinguish between acceptance and resignation, between celebration and despair.

I think ‘self-deception’ needs to be discussed in all its variables. I can offer myself as model to see the visible traits. For my side, I will use life stories of professionally successful people to point out their self- deceptive traits. I think this quality used properly is also very much part of the basic flour of branded cookies!

Otherwise, I will submit to editor a few sentences and a lovely Osho story heard in 1989 to roll out the new article.

“Truly Sublime! This is what we all came to this earth for, to share in Genius. Somebody that can put into words and music the inner feeling of a generation. But not only a generation, he also expressed something of the eternal humanity of all of us.

This in time sometimes happens, Shakespeare did it with his plays, Da Vinci with his painting. Now we have Dylan with his poems and music. He was asked where his songs came from. He said he didn’t know. They just came. Listen and watch the short interview below. His music still sends shivers down my back!”

It seems late Mr. Jain was creating tigers out of wolves by altering their names!
