Commitment

Am I socially committed? Lord I would rather be murdered first! Did I shock you? I know I did, it was only half in jest, conventions dictate that you should be shocked, yet NO, I am not an anarchist, that is, in the sense the word is used by the anarchists. It may be true that I share their dislike for God, state and religion as they exist (in our minds) today. But I haven’t lost hope in two of them-God and Society, although I have no sympathy for the society as it is now. Most of you, whether you like society or not, might not be well disposed towards god and I don’t wonder at it. The old guy has not been of real help to us over the years.

But the god I am talking of is different, on the outer level it is the sum total of everything we hold dear in our lives, the value system, beliefs, finer feelings and everything that you may call godly in you for want of a better word. On the inner level my definition of god is totally revolutionary and it contains everything that you are. Some may call it a vague definition. I am not really defining god here, I am doing something even better, I am pointing a way to find god and you can learn it from my previous posts.

I am sure that all of you can find god even without resorting to any religious practices. Please note that I am not denigrating the finer elements in religion here, there are finer elements in everything, but they all get clouded by the structure in which they are shut up. Instead of liberating us they trample us underfoot. None of the established religions can save you, study the lives of any saint, all have gone beyond the strictures imposed by their faith in search of truth. Have you ever thought why it is so; have you ever thought why Jesus told the world that his kingdom is not of this world?

It isn’t of this world, but what he didn’t say is that it includes this world in it as well. He could not say that to a bunch of stupid people who goes by the strictures of Talmud and cannot think straight. I know that some may take umbrage at this, but people, jump out of those darkened caves inside your heart, take a look around and see the world for what it is.

It is happening right before you, people are being led into traps they can never come out of, they are being mentally castrated, they are being traded and subjugated, every code, every book is being made use of in this terrible man hunt. Learn that all systems of beliefs are regressive, they instill subordination, they make you obey, they don’t lead you forward.

This is why intellectuals are the most obedient people in the world, they work with data, and that data is provided by the system, every intricate point that you learn makes you more obedient, makes you more docile, it takes away the capacity to react as a human being, it curbs wonder, it provides answers for all your questions. It plants you inside a mental fortress from which you can never escape.

You can control intellectuals like you control dogs with a piece of bone or a lump of sugar. They would never believe that they are being controlled; they would think that they are acting out of their own volition. They only generate thoughts for their masters, both hidden and evident. Every time I think on this it calls back the words of Hitler to my mind. He openly stated that 99 percentage of the population is like women, they can be led, they can be told to do things and they would gladly do that.

Did you know what was the excuse offered by most of those tried in Nuremberg after the WW II? They said that they were only taking orders. Some of you may think that Hitler was a total idiot and a fanatic, he may have been, but he had learned one thing right, that the people require a master and he consciously became that.

It is this weakness among the humans that I am afraid of, this willingness to follow the leader, this frantic desire for a host mechanism, this total submission. You think that only the ‘weirdo’s’ desires such things don’t you, you are wrong, everyone would follow a leader if he is forceful enough. It is easier to justify something than make something on your own. This is a perennial weakness of the human mind.

The human mind yearns for something to lean on; it wants to forget its insignificance and would like to bask in reflected glory. This is why people run to religion and such other systems of thought that there is out there which promises salvation. This goes for the materialist and the idealists, the idealist promise the heaven up above and the materialists promise the heave below. Both lull the fear of isolation in the human heart. They can’t think out of the hat, though they mouth these words incessantly. The inflow towards religion all over the world now is the failure of a dependable substitute, People want to be comforted, patted on the back and looked after. Even if these are provided invisibly they would be satisfied.

Hence they run to religion.

Yet really religion is a totally fucked up institution. It has out grown its usages and it relevance. But the alarming fact is that people are being attracted to religion by hoards. The world has not been able to replace religion with anything that people can really believe in. The people have not unfortunately grown. They did not grow with the growth of civilization. Only internal changes could make people grow; only an inner revolution could make people break the shackles imposed by their conditioning. But the religions would not allow that. The people who run them have several things to lose by doing that.

If I could I would wipe the entire religiosie out I would do it this moment if I can. It has to be done to cleanse the world.

But the fuckers are too entrenched, too dug in, and there are enough dolts in the world who believes every word that’s uttered by these Beelzebub’s. If anyone speaks against these perverts their followers would rise up in arms and would start murdering you right and left. I can’t even blame them unfortunately; they are totally fucked up and frightened. They don’t know what to do and they flock to the first group which assures them that they would take care of them come what may. I can’t gain say the words of Marx, religion is the opium of the masses, though later Marxism itself started exhibiting the characteristics of a religion. It has even chapels where they place flowers and incense now. Look at the terrible servility to the earlier modes of culture.

Now about social commitment, think for a moment what are you committing into, to serve a society that’s robbing you off every bit of your self-respect, that’s stripping you bare, that’s invading your very inner lives, that’s derailing your privacy, that’s converting you into a machine rather than a human being. You know there is vast data base on every human being on earth, and any one of them can be monitored and controlled by those in power at any point of their lives.

Some may think this is paranoia, let’s admit that possibility even, all the conspiracy theorists could be paranoid, but a brief survey of the weaponry now in existence would make any sane person doubt their very sanity. Those who criticize these doubting souls are a protected lot. They are protected by their very ignorance. They haven’t been fighting with this machinery of annihilation. Let them try it once as a challenge.

Let them think to themselves, I am doing it as an experiment to try to find out whether there is anything in what these conspiracy theory idiots say. I shall go against certain deplorable actions of establishment and shall carefully note down everything that occurs all the while I am at it. This is a free society is it not, one has freedom of opinion, to express ones ideas, one can move about in one’s own country and in the world and engage oneself in any activity that one chooses provided that it’s not criminal in nature and are not hurtful to others.

Try this and you will soon find out, take up the case of any subjugated group, people, or individuals. Go actively into their affairs, try giving them help. Initially there would only be threats, innuendos, suggestions etc. Soon the cat will be out of the box. You will start to feel insecure, your friends would mysteriously disappear from your lives, your resources would dry up, you would begin to perceive hidden aspects of the outwardly enjoyable world.

You might lose everything you have in that struggle too, you would also become paranoid, you would also start seeing strange things happen around you. The world is not all glitter and polish as you perceive it now, you were only perceived the tip of an iceberg till today. There are things underneath which would make the bravest sweat blood.

But then why should you do it? Why should you make your life hell, why should you lose chances of playing up to the current protectors and fore go the benefits of their wonderful grace? Well no reason at all, but then how can you criticize others without sharing their experiences. How do you decide that they are wrong? Do you go by an opinion poll, then what is your role in it, just rising your hands on the basis of a gut feeling? Or do you go by the words of a few, then what is the difference between them and the doubting Thomas’s, what makes them more informed than these, both are few in number aren’t they, or do you go by the words of those in power? Then what is the need for democracy if you can’t question your rulers?
