A certain misinterpretation and
misconception sometimes is ‘who rules over?’ I wouldn’t say I’m certain of this
answer but what I am certain of is what I believe to be the truth. My truth
doesn’t define me, again a constant reminder of who truly rules over me. Well, when there’s chaos and tyrannical
imposters all around us, what we mentally gear up for is the filtration of bull
crap, almost entirely. There’s no one who would answer all questions precisely
and there’s an even smaller percent of those who would not deceive or lie while
doing so. Sometimes, we are meant to be judged and are meant to be scrutinized
in order to implement our actual aantarik
urja, our internal energy.
Apparently, the world lies in wait of a
guru, to lead them, to show them the
difference between Truth and Deception. Who said lies are wrong? They are
probably as righteous an act as confessions of the truth, but who said Truth is
ideal? For once, imagine that lies are necessary and truth, the evil crippling
mortal beings. If this were the case, then lies would rule and truth would lose
its ground. I’m still not calling truth an absolute good. The world works in
the form of a majority of the inhabitants. And here, a majority believes truth
to be implemented and practiced rather than fallacy. That’s the main blunt
reason why truth wins today.
Consider a zoo, one very much similar
to those seen in metropolitan cities on this present day, but with one striking
switch: humans caged and animals with DSLRs, walking freely over the entire
area of the particular zoo. Who said that’s wrong? None whatsoever did. However
a majority of the world’s zoos are fashioned to have human beings walking
around in board shorts and holding soda cans to their lips while critters are
incarcerated in metal and concrete to be shot with Nikons. How I wish they
could be taught to pout and pose in front of butt naked humans, wading
knee-deep in swamps. But as it was supposed to happen to a majority of the
world, in this case more like completely, zoos are for ‘people’ to see
‘animals’.
I won’t utter a word about religion,
for I wish not to tread into areas with depths uncharted.
Now, who rules you is up to you. If I
may, then I would say no one rules me. People guide me, encourage me, advocate
courses of action, and criticize selection of the same, push me forward, pull
me back, or implement authoritative understandings of withdrawal, and cheer my
exploits. But, they do not rule over me. I fail to comprehend and implement my
judgments and I am to be called guilty for the same. But, regrets should be
very personal and aimed at self, not society, not surroundings. If this be the
case, then justice lies in despair. So keep your head on your shoulders, and
say “you’re in control”, even when you’re not. Simply doing so, would enable
you to Rule Yourself in the legit sense.
