undermined by the overall system of control comprised of these various compartmentalised institutions.
Through these authorities we have been taught and conditioned NOT to look at the bigger picture,
about what reality really means and the purpose our existence may hold. Heaven forbid the implications
of people connecting to a deep sense of purpose in their lives and searching out the meaning behind
their existence... it could result in people opening their minds to greater possibilities for themselves and
opening their hearts to greater meaning in life. If this were the case the system of control would
collapse like a house of cards.
To ensure the system’s survival, it teaches us from a young age that such questions as the meaning of
life are unimportant or unanswerable. Instead we are taught to follow the rules as set by the majority
and think as our parents had thought and their parents had thought, perpetuating this deeply
embedded subconscious programming throughout generations.
• Why such censorship exists?
• How did this system of control come to define reality for us and urge us to never define reality
for ourselves?
• Who might benefit from teaching generations of people not to question authority or the ideas
upheld by authorities?
Conformity: The Jailer of Freedom
If we look at western society, for example the US, UK or Australia, we are meant to be the greatest
examples of free citizenry and enterprise, especially the US. However, according to the “official view of
things”, consensual reality (as perpetuated through
mainstream media, politics and our social, business,
religious and educational institutions), we are taught
that it is acceptable to believe some things as true,
others are not; some behaviours as acceptable,
others not. We are taught to view our reality and
define ourselves in a certain way in order to be
acceptable, functional and “normal” within the
imposed and perpetuated social boundaries. We are
taught from an early age to CONFORM.
We then form a belief system built upon a complex
network of our social and cultural ideologies. Our
core subconscious belief systems, as dictated by the official view of things, are where all our other
beliefs emerge. Because our beliefs operate at a subconscious level most people aren’t consciously
aware of their belief system and essentially live their lives on autopilot. What this means is that these
subconscious programs direct most people’s thoughts, actions and behaviours rather than them
consciously choosing to direct them. Sadly, the result is a human population that is largely
disempowered believing they are the victim of external forces beyond their control. Our subconscious
programs dictate the workings of our physical, mental and emotional systems, so in turn we become
victimised by the power they have over us. Essentially the human population has become like a herd of
sheep unable to think independently outside the pre-determined boundaries and programs of
consensual reality.
