The Art of the Mind
So what have we learned from this life?...We've learned that man knows little, if anything at all....We've learned that, even in the things we do know, we still question them form time to time...We've learned that that man is greedy, even in knowledge....What else have we learned about man?...We've also learned that man is more greedy for money, or rather, POWER...Yes, man loves power...Man feels that in becoming powerful, he himself becomes some sort of demigod...Once again proving that man is foolish...How can a fool be a deity?...One must first stablize the internal before he controls the external; otherwise, it will all collapse in on him...What else have we learned?...That man would rather believe than to know...He will rather smile for a sordid lie than feel the integrity of truth...We have learned that man lies to himself in order to smile...We've learned that man believes a smile to be the evidence of actuality and truth...We have learned that man is silly...And what more?...That man loves to create...That man loves to arouse thought with such things as free energy and perpetual machines....We've learned that man loves to defend his thoughts....That man does not like to be wrong...We've learned that man will kill in order to be right...But the law of man will kill in order to right a wrong; starting a never ending cycle...We have learned that man ideed has invented the "perpetual machine"...What more has this life taught us?...That everyone is right....That conformity is wrong...We've learned that everyone is different, and can never be wrong...We've learned that from individual points of view, we all have right and correctness and, therefore, all opposing are wrong...We've learned that everyone is then wrong...Yes, but what more have we learned from this life?...We've learned that old men start wars and young men fight them...We've learned that man loves peace...That man uses war to find peace...We've learned that in war, there is a loser and there is a winner...We have learned that no one wants to be a loser...That man will fight to be a winner...We have learned that man uses war to eliminate competition in order to be a winner...He uses war to find peace of mind, not peace for all...We've learned that man is selfish...That man is a self-preservationist...We've learned that man will betray in order to live...We've learned that man will betray in order smile...We've learned that man will betray...Is there any more that we have learned?...We've learned that man will enforce morals, but practice otherwise...We have learned that man is a hypocrite...We've learned that man thinks above the law...That man is better than the law...We've learned that, therefore, man is an anarchist...Man does not like anarchy, just superiority....We've learned that man is possessive of his own power...even the one's that don't exist...Anything more did this life teach?...It taught that man loves to love...That man is in search for a Utopia...We've learned that man wants to smile....That he wants to end experience of all friction and become pre-occupied with pleasure...But unfortunately we've learned that man does not believe that Utopia is possible...We've learned that man lets that disbelief conrol them...Therefore we have learned that man is not confident...He does not have faith in what he wants to do....

All this we have learned from man...All this man should learn from man...But he does not...He hears but he does not listen...He knows but he does not understand...Only few do, but the majority will not learn...We as a species must learn from ourselves...Man must learn from man...That is what must be....

So what have we learned from man?...Nothing...We have learned nothing at all....
