I tend to be sensitive to stories which describe the few manipulating the many, from a nation to the world at large, for their own agenda. You may otherwise know them as “conspiracy theories”, but I tend to avoid contributing to the proliferation of that term because it is nowadays used merely as a means of discrediting whatever one has to say - truth or not, logical or not.

Ultimately I think I learned, by now, to be more vary of such theories and to be more critical initially, not just after further evaluation - so I don’t fall for it before I’ve actually given it a full analysis and thought. Or perhaps I just grew tired of it as I start believing more in my own personal power and the power of other individuals, to change the world - to spoil whatever plans whichever elite may have for it.

I am beginning to realize that what the masses should be most excited about is not so much the big New World Order scenarios or big political plots as much as their own personal self improvement and empowerment. It is interesting how many times I’ve seen a relation between theories of mass manipulation and simple personal disjointedness of a common western human today: disjointedness from their own very humanity. Since the majority of people apparently fail to find themselves they resort to playing one of the roles made for them by the society they are living in. This is conformism. They conform to the path set for them by the society because they do not know their own way!

I couldn’t hope to explain this as well as Brian Kim can, especially in his article titled “Why So Many People Are In Jobs They Hate”. Because they don’t yet even know what would be a job they love, let alone have the boldness to pursue it! Then they ultimately start to blame the system, the society, because indeed it is the paths society has made for them that they followed and became so unhappy. Intriguing question comes to my mind: Is it any wonder theories of conspiracies are so popular?

I would say that if there is a conspiracy going on, if we are being manipulated, the best way to oppose it might not be to go on the tedious process of ghost chasing, trying to find the truth in a pile of truths - all the movies and articles all claiming to know the truth about the world and its future. The best way to make sure that we are not being manipulated and led like sheep into the world of dystopia is to realize that there is more than a sheep within ourselves, to discover a human being in us and who exactly it is! Once we do we will be naturally able to rearrange our life as if we were born again, as if we were turned from one kind of being into another, much more powerful, one which can actually live to its full potential, one which can change the world, one which will not be manipulated, one which has its own path and will not conform.

Imagine if all people in the world found the real full blooded human in themselves! Oh I certainly believe whoever is plotting a conspiracy to make us slaves to their agenda will have their plans severely disturbed. When the majority of people are barely aware of who they are and hence naturally conformist, they are easy to manipulate. But when you have a nation, a world nation of people who are full blooded ambitious humans in touch with their self and on their fast tracks towards the goals they set out to achieve, many of which due to the ambitious evolutionary nature of a true human include changing the world at large good luck with manipulating them!

This is an incredible realization. There are so many various theories out there, so many wrongs in the world. And the knee jerk reaction to them tends to be emotional - anger, numbness, cynism, an undirected drive of an activist - and in most cases all of this is in vain. You can’t do much to change the reality of the world if you don’t yet know the reality of who you are. How can you use yourself to bring about change if you still didn’t learn who and what yourself is? It’s like trying to go into a car race without knowing how to use the gear changer, or like trying to fly a space ship without knowing how to turn the propulsion on. Sooner or later the space ship you are trying to fly will be caught by the gravity of something bigger - leading you down its own paths and you’ll barely even be aware of it until you hit an asteroid or something.

So the prospects of the world are frustrating. Heck, your own life is frustrating! How about changing it all? There is a solution. It is you! You just didn’t find YOU yet. I suggest you take a look at what Brian Kim has to say (check his articles on the left sidebar). It’s really helping me so I figure it might help you too!

I’m on my way.
