Definition Of Sanity
10 April 2004
{HRI 20040410}
Sanity is being able
to look through the deceptions, masks and tricks that you
and others are immersed in, pushed into and continuously
subjected to,
or causing, or aiding,
and
of course includes also the desire to do that looking, to
exert that ability, and to choose one's course of life
and one's actions accordingly - both towards oneself and
towards others.
So you see (maybe if you read the definition again), that the
level or amount of Sanity of any person, is continuously going
up and down.
Also, your Sanity can be very high in some areas of life, in
some subjects and activities, and at the same time your Sanity
can be very low in another subject or part of life.
A typical example is the subject of Life Energy *(1)
- that what gives you emotions and your joy of life,
and what even determines most of your personal
and intimate relations, or the lack or failure of
it, and also monitors directly your ability to use
your talents, as well as your awareness of these -
which is that much hidden and not looked at, that most
people quite correctly could be considered highly lacking
in Sanity in that area. *(2)
Further you can be aware of the fact, that a deception that you
are immersed in, is normally not visible to you or felt by you,
which is obvious by the very definition of 'deception'
itself, as
it carries the intention of the person(s) who
deceive you, to bring that immersion about in you,
or the deceiver uses an already existing blindness,
that you have to certain types of deception: He or
she makes use of a blindness, that has already been
installed in you.
To give an easy and common example:
By keeping boys and girls (or even men and
women) apart, or by not letting them talk with
each other about the feelings they have or do
not have for each other,
which exchange would be necessary,
to examine one's own feelings,
and
to compare these with other
feelings, and
to know and understand the
feelings of others, and
to compare these with one's OWN
standards and one's OWN goals for
personal relations, and
to determine with whom one can
share, or chooses to share, or not
to share
which feelings, and how
intensely, and with what
responsibilities and
intentions for another you
desire to do so, and
to determine what feelings
another is able to share, or
chooses to share, or not to share,
and with what
responsibilities and
intentions, or lack of it,
another shares his or her
feelings,
or how many he or she may
hide, or pretend, or deceive
you and others or even
himself or herself about,
by preventing that exchange to occur, and thus
preventing that understanding to come about,
you are creating so many blind spots,
that "men can not understand women" or
that "women can not understand men."
And you have been made extremely vulnerable
by not understanding these feelings of
yourself or of others,
and you find it difficult to choose which
feelings to express - when and to whom, and
how much or how little, or "maybe better not
at all,"
and it has made you very, very unhappy at
times.
The whole matter has gotten so bad, that you are
taught that "you HAVE to deceive others," or even
yourself,
in order to try and achieve fulfillment or
happiness,
rather than expressing your feelings,
rather than showing these and talking about them
with others (not with hateful or insane individuals,
of course, but with normal people)
of whom you know they do appreciate that you
show them your true feelings.
Who do YOU like most? Those who express their
true feelings towards you.
So, if you want to become popular...
A Sane person looks through the deceptions, and treats people
as they are.
And that is a tremendous joy, because there is nothing
more beautiful and lovable than people as they really are.
Also, normal people love to be really looked at, to be
really seen as they are.
How much does it cost you, to do them that biggest favor of
all?
Nothing other than you exerting your desire to be Sane.
