Hit from all angles

On the journey to truth, you will be faced with many decisions on how far you really want to go. No concept of success can survive the deadly stare of truth. Let this be your gentle hand on guiding you through the process. The concept of a family is at the core of one’s conditioning. Society wants to make sure everyone loves their family to maintain itself. I will interfere here and state that there is nothing wrong with this, except ‘loving one’s family’ cannot be done forcefully, because it...

The Pain that Heals
There are two types of suffering one faces in his life. Voluntary, and involuntary suffering. Happiness does exist, but it’s on the other side of voluntary pain. We act in the world without reflecting, then to avoid examining our missteps, we try to cover up our emotions with more actions. To be free of this vicious cycle, one must step on the brakes and plunge deep within oneself to retain his childhood freedom he once had. Examination is painful, lack of examination is painful compounded ov...

On Self-Deprecation
What is self-deprecation? Putting yourself down in hopes for attention from others. Why do people want attention from others? Because taking accountability for your own issues is hard. Why is that hard? Because people do not want change, comfort is easy. Is there anything wrong with this? No, there is no right or wrong. What is the cost of self-deprecation? Running in circles, and finding no solutions. If one is okay with this, he will keep doing it.

On Uncertainty
What is uncertainty? Why do you want to be certain? So I could feel like I am in control. Why do you want to be in control? Because feeling uncertain is scary. What’s so scary about being uncertain? Because you don’t know what’s gonna happen next. So, fear? Yes, I guess you are right. Fear of things not going your way. Yes. Why do you want things to go your way? And how do you know what’s best for you, anyways? I’ve never thought about it like that. You will get away with what you can allow y...

On Insecurities
What are insecurities? Something one hides from other people. Why hide anything? Not to be judged by others. Why not? It might be hurtful. So? It causes pain. What causes pain? Another person’s words hitting an unexamined iceberg of thoughts and emotion. Is there any way out? Only if you are willing to dig deep.

The Story of Human Suffering
Somewhere in the world, a baby is born. Pure, joyous, curious, happy, loving. Somewhere in the world, his parents start forcing him to do stuff he doesn’t really want to do. Teachings, preachings, knowledge, warnings. If the baby doesn’t listen, he gets condemned by all around him. And so he goes on, questioning everything, but ‘learning the ropes of life’. Eventually he goes to school, and has to sit there ‘learning’. Eventually he goes to college, and has to sit there ‘studying’. Eventually...

On Shame
What is shame? Society's condemn upon the individual. How can I get rid of being ashamed? Why do you want not to feel ashamed? So I could be myself. Why do you want to be yourself? So I could be truthful. Why do you want to be truthful? So that I can present myself to society truthfully. Why do you want to ‘present' yourself? Looking for an answer is itself not being yourself.

On Conflict
The biggest lie of society are arguments. What do you mean? Why argue about anything? To prove a point. Why do you want to prove a point? To feel right. Why do you want to feel right? To maintain my beliefs. Why maintain your beliefs? I’ve never thought about it that way, are there any alternatives? Yes, understand the truth. Is this any different? Instead of proving other people wrong, prove yourself wrong, and you’ll never have to convince anyone right. But I feel like I am right. If you we...

On Dissolving
What is dissolving? Helping someone see through their lies. Why do you wanna do that? It's the only way to help anyone. What do you mean? The only reason anyone isn't free is because each person has a goal. What is a goal? A carrot on a stick, keeping a human being chasing forever. Sounds horrible. There is no good or bad. It's just that if you want to help, you're gonna have to prove the carrot isn't real. How can I do that? Find out why first. Why? Only you can answ...

On Dominoes
Why do you like dominoes? They are fun. Why are they fun? This is a tough question to answer, but I have an inkling I know. Is it because we like to break things down? Break what down? Children tend to like breaking things. I liked breaking things too, it’s how I got here. Here, where? Everywhere, nowhere, pick your choice. What is to be broken? What you call yourself as you. What is ‘me’? A false identity of false beliefs reinforced with a lifetime of knowledge and inertia of emotion. Is thi...

On Control
“I am the one in control here” Why do I want to be in control? To achieve what you want? Why achieve? To get? Why get? There is nothing to get.

On Judgment
Why do you want to be confident? So I could walk in the world forthrightly, without being touched by judgment. Why do you not want to be judged? Because it is painful. Why is it painful? Because something within me doesn’t like it. What is that? Ego. What is ego? Identities, I think I see myself as. Why do you need these? So I could belong in the world. And if you had no identities of yourself, would you be limited, or free? Free. Why do you want to belong, when freedom is at your fingertips?

On Belonging
Why would you like to belong? Who says I want to? The way you talk, the way you act, the way you speak. How do you know all this? Because I was just like you. And did you find a way out? I couldn't not find a way out. What do you mean by this? By abandoning the quests society wants you to be on, you can unravel your own stream. How is this possible. By seeing through the fruitless pursuits you have been sold on. Like what? Love, happiness, peace, freedom, enlightenment. How does one ‘see...
