‘Slavery is a theft- theft of life, theft of work, theft of any property or produce, theft even of a children a slave might have borne.’
(Kavin bale)
To be called a slave does not suit to man- the superior creature. Slavery is not just to have cruel rulers over the country, slavery has different forms. Everyone is slave- slave of people’s opinion, slave of past, slave of imaginary ideals which we long to be, slave of fear, slave of despair and so on. The interesting fact is that we all are slaves but no one of us acknowledge this and its a worst scenario.
About 70% of our youth is depressed. Every 4 out of 5 youngsters are in depression. What is the reason? Apart from chemical, medical and genetical reasons, slavery of people’s opinion is the main and its getting worse. This has been tradition of this world to judge everybody else since the creation of man, judge the other person by his/her profession, looks, creed and so on. History has witnessed that it is the part of human nature to keep envy in heart. Youth of this century is depressed because of the slavery of public opinion. survey has revealed that 89% of our youth is depressed due to low grades, low job or lack of job, relationship problems, family problems, lack of true friends, lack of true happiness, emptiness and so on. To be conscious about grades, job, relationship etc is justified but to be depressed because of these reasons is totally not acceptable. Society judge them on these parameters. Are we going to be in this chaos till death?
This world is not going to change its attitude but what could change is how you respond to these problems. Man had come to this world all alone and he has to leave this world alone. He has to deal with these circumstances all alone and believe me, he is full of this capability. All he need to do is to explore himself. This world is cruel, it doesn’t know the meaning of mercy. So our youth is in dire need of exploring their selves. Be, who you are. Never let anyone’s opinion define your ‘self’. Explore your attributes.
In ‘The power of your subconscious mind’, Murphey Joseph has described that man has 2 minds, subconscious mind and a conscious mind. By conscious mind, we take conscious decisions like what to wear or what to eat etc. but the conscious mind drives our body, our soul, our vision. And our subconscious mind is devised by our conscious mind. It’s a cycle. Our brain is like a road, every type of thought came into it including despair, worry, sadness, uselessness etc. but if we consciously overthink it and make an assumption in favor of any of this thought, our subconscious would believe it and will not prepare our body for that particular scenario. For instance, imagining any situation a thought pop up into your mind that you can’t do this and you agree in your mind, your subconscious would believe this. And whenever that situation prevails, our subconscious had not prepare our body to cope with that up, thus we fail and get depress.
For this it is necessary to make your subconscious clear in vision. For this, you have to command the subconscious, this is the right way to control the subconscious. It will make the search of ‘self’ happen and to have ‘own’ personality.
