To imagine something better, we must be aware of what is wrong. Everyone needs to face their wrongs and ignorance. Showing people their wrongs is often required.
"To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong."
– Joseph Chilton Pearce
Remaining unaware of exactly what we are doing will only serve to perpetuate the current condition of falsity. Knowledge and awareness is required for change to occur. Not wishful thinking. Not placating to people's sensibilities and false worldviews and self-views. The way for people to realize the need to learn, educate and raise themselves out of the darkness of ignorance and wrongdoing, is for them to become aware of their ignorance and how wrong they are.
If someone is unaware of their ignorance, and overestimates their false certainty, they won't be choosing to learn and inform themselves. The only way for people to become aware of the darkness of falsity they're immersed into, is through the light of truth shining upon them and forcing them out of the dark comfort of ignorance.
Some people have the hardest time admitting that they have accepted, bought into, and identified with a deceptive belief for much of their lives. Belief is often more powerful than knowledge, because people become very attached to what they think they know. Taking a belief away can be like taking a part of someone's identity. As a result, many of us do not want to recognize and acknowledge the darkness in who we are or what we have become.
"The essence of propaganda consists in winning people over to an idea so sincerely, so vitally, that in the end they succumb to it utterly and can never escape from it."
– Paul Joseph Goebbels
We currently have a false reality based in deception and lies being propagated by other minds for us to accept and buy into. It's what currently exists in reality, but only because we are running someone else's program of life and living. Mind control over our lives is being implemented in the form of chemicals in our food and water, information through what we spend time on and pay attention to, and our belief in false concepts. These false concepts become part of who we currently are, as part of our ego-personality-identity construct. We are attached to them, and they are hard to face, let alone let go of.
To realize the falsity around and within us, is to have the real eyes to realize real lies.
Accurately perceiving the truth is the solution to our self-inflicted suffering by providing us with the imagination to envision another way. We need to clean up the confused, clouded and darkened lenses of perceiving reality, and instead see reality with clarity and light of truth.
We can't fight the acceptance of who we currently are, because that prevents us from envisioning and imagining a better way to live. Accept the current reality that is present, but don't accept that it needs to continue to be that way. The attachment to our programmed and conditioned worldivew of falsity needs to be let go of, not fought against. Then we can create a more accurate, correct, right and better worldview based in the truth of reality, and create a better ideal world.
The desire to learn, especially about our mistakes and wrongs, to care for truth, can be awakened or kindled once we realize how wrong we are. This awareness allows us to to seek to know. If no one speaks the truth about what is wrong, this process may never happen for many people.
Until this is recognized, we will be perpetuating a hamster wheel of existence that will progressively increment more external control, enslavement and suffering upon our lives. We are creating this condition in reality because our societies are in degrees of confusion, apathy, cowardice and fear of facing the mirror and doing the hard work to change.
It is impossible to fix the current condition of wrong ways if people are not honestly looking at the current condition. Most people are ultimately afraid of looking at reality and seeing it as it currently is, and certainly in fear of looking at the mirror and seeing themselves for what they currently are.
We must open our eyes to see the wrongs and problems in order to imagine a better way forward. If we don't see anything wrong, there is no reason to think and imagine a better way because everything is just fine and dandy. Ideal better ways like anarchy, of living without rulers, masters and controllers who force us into wrong ways of living is possible. We can break out of our current condition, if we admit to its flaws and imagine better.
Thank you for your time and attention. Peace.
