1947

If you are lucky, the actual reality of existence dawns on you, and I mean lucky in the sense of luck of common people and not the ones who decide the luck of others. If you are lucky you become aware of the setup and then if you are intelligent you stop wasting time on useless things and start doing what really matters to you. The truth of existence, well it's as basic as money for food, clothing and shelter and when that is taken care of, and even if it isn't, you have to try and protect your family and yourself from the conspiratorial designs of the machine that governs lives of people in this country. It's a machine that constantly dishes out conspiracies, propaganda and false narratives at every level of existence of a person: at personal level, at family level, at professional level, at organizational level and at social level. You realise the existence of this machine and you realise that God probably never existed though the thought of Him or Her does provide strength and respite and it is advisable to have the form of Him or Her that is agreeable to you to have faith in or believe. The setup is kind of simple, exploit people for virtually anything that can be exploited, and the things people have complexes about and are sensitive to. For a fat girl it might be her weight, for a guy with who failed in an exam it can be his academic failure, for a dark complexioned person it could be his complexion, the possibilities are endless in this world of absolute exploitation. There are cutoffs for growth in this setup. You belong to a small town, that's a cutoff. You belong to a particular region, that's a cutoff. You studied in a particular school that's a cutoff. And these cutoffs end the more acceptable opportunities of acceptable ways of social and financial growth. What is interesting in all of this is that the cutoffs and not meeting them are then exploited to cause pain and distress to people even when they have accepted their place in society and just want to exist peacefully. The worst thing about it all is that, in this country at least and I don't know about other countries, the individuals who are part of this machine are not really intelligent. Of course the truth is that they seek permanence of power which is infact a big ask in a world whose sun is going to explode in a few billion years, but that's a lot of time actually and humanity might shift to other planets or solar systems till then; unfortunately it won't matter, if you are anything like me, because methods of more than absolute slavery have been already devised and have been practiced since a considerable period of time and it is here one realises that it is in fact permanence of power; even if humanity goes to Mars as Elon Musk says, or some another planet or even a different solar system, for people like me it won't matter because one would still be a slave, you go to corners of the universe and still you are a slave to individuals who might be anything but are definitely not intelligent, life is actually not worth it, though people might choose to live, just how they choose to live on Earth even after awareness of slavery, out of love and by being blackmailed with wellbeing and safety of their loved ones. I'll give you my example, I belong from a small town of a backward region of a not so popular state of this country, and that's my cutoff, I am trapped in the local hierarchy of that small town of the backward region I belong to permanently, and no matter how much education I get, or wherever I am in the world, the individuals of that small town and backward region of this country would own me like a slave and control my life, relationships and my growth, no matter how illiterate, incompetent and ignorant they are. My life is basically dependent on the whims of these individuals and not some grand plan that God has for me. This is how you setup permanence of power while wheel of life goes on for the lesser mortals. A strata remains permanent while families, legacies and pedigrees get born and get perished below it. It's not God, it's politics. Complete entitlement to anarchy for some and absolute totalitarianism for others. There is no 21st century. Everything is as constant as it has ever been and only thing that moves is illusion. The reality of existence when it dawns upon you, doesn't bring much difference in life, except you become more caring towards your family, well, as much as you can afford to be, rest is like they say: "chop wood, carry water before enlightenment; chop wood carry water after enlightenment."
