Re: Zeitgeist Adddendum - A Critical Analysis (for the sake of balance)
Hello Providence.
We have invested animal bodies. We are extremely susceptible to the dense energies that this kind of body regulate. Civilization, as it stands on this globe, is created to make use of those energies.
A civilization such as ours is based on a mental architecture that is enforced at the psychological level by the values that the cultural context enforces progressively through familial and public education. Those values are solidified by emotions that account for the values, positive or negative. Emotions are therefore the value of the memory of the race.
Does it make more sense now?
Being deprived of sex and money creates great tensions in a psychological person. Psychology associates itself to the energies that inhabit the psychic territory. So, it associates with the animality of its body that is strong in instincts of survival and reproduction, and those instincts tell the psychological entity that it must subdue its environment to survive, in other words that he must dominate, or be dominated.
If the basis for psychology are taken away, and in this case we are talking about the means by which psychology has been trained to react, the power lines that are sex and money, and that there has not been a solid base made ready to replace the illusory psychological persona, the individual is lost.
He is lost because psychology fundamentally powerless on its own. It is not centered on reality, it is in periphery of it. It counts on the memory of his civilization to provide him with the means to survive, psychologically.
There is a sort of internal strength required to support the bringing down of the basis for security that represents a civilization to which psychology identifies. A true identity does not identify to anything else than itself. This is what I mean by being centred. If an individual identifies to his civilization and that this civilization is destroyed, he is left with nothing unless this particular inner strength makes him realize on the spot that he is, outside of the memory of the race, he endures.
It is because man has so little internal strength that he remains stuck with a civilization that is inadequate. And, if he feels it is adequate, it is because he still needs it. And he will always seek to keep it going in time. Because the mental architecture afforded through the values of his race are meant to perpetuate the race, not to make him free.
Does this work?
