There is a calamitous trend of individual dissociation with milieu and society around. It is rather dangerous that" Social Milieu" is being positioned as antagonistic to "Self" hence a trend to keep 'Self' away and aloof from it.Individuals cannot be blamed for it. Social milieu is so obnoxious now, with individuals facing loads of extreme attitudes, nasty demeanor, rejection, snap-abandonment, shallow and shaky relationships ET AL.Self and society have mutual benefit, they work as natural wellness support system for each other but, as we have entered a stage of evolution, where unprecedented complexities, conflicts and negative dualism greet us on daily basis, the wellness has become the worst victim.Still, the contemporary cherished choice of burdening the "self‟ with all responsibilities of wellness-sanity-rationality is tough; it is not the way we have been designed and evolved.Please do accept humbly and innocently that isolation and keeping aloof from the natural support system of wellness is not an instinctive and innate positioning of your consciousness, it is purely a cultural one; that too a recent one.It is an unnatural societal and cultural benchmark of success and achievement to hide one's troubles from people. The pop icons may opt to hush up when they go to a hospital as they are in this business of happiness. Not an average person.Remember, how does a revolution happen? How big changes take place in societies against the prevailing powerful norms and benchmarks? Understand this energy. When one single pain and sorrow is owned and personalized by every single citizen of a nation or society; revolutions happen and are always successful.When an individual pain becomes a collective pain of millions and the emotions of millions become one single expression, revolutions happen and are always successful.The trouble, we have in all societies and in all nations, emanate out of our cultural consciousness of being one and singular with collectivism only in our joys and celebration but never ever in pain.Revolutions and big changes have become extinct. They may look like beginning but die an infant death. We all as a collective have lost the innate magical art of merging our subjective and personalized consciousnesses into one singular, objective and collective consciousness at times of crisis and trouble.Ask the uncomfortable question to you and everyone – we say my society, culture and nation is in crisis, however, are they one with my own pain and crisis? Do I reflect in the crisis of collectivism?‟ What is the major voice as an answer?" It seems, it is invariably no! That is why,even when things are in bad shape around us, nothing seems to change and no involvement is orchestrated!The simple but painful fact seems to be; we have stopped being natural and surrendered our consciousness to the popular cultural benchmarks, which stand as an unnatural and calamitous energy. We need to see this with an open eye and innocent hearts. We need to re initiate and re-invent the art we have lost. We need to be one in our pains, even when we smile in solitude!
Let your pain be my pain and be ever willing to reciprocate. Let the "natural wellness-support-system"
unravel its magic. Let the pains and crises build a beautiful and affectionate bridge between you and me. Let the sharing begin. Let pain and crises join rhythms, to create a symphony of sympathetic solidarity, which shall fill up all empty spaces of hearts. Let this revolution happen!Let us allow ourselves the innocence and compassion to share our pains with each other. This is one art, we all have lost. Being strong does not mean, we cannot cry together. If we can laugh together, that too in an affected and forced tones, why cannot we weep together in a genuine and innocently sincere heart-assimilation. Let us redeem and reinvent our lost art of social sharing of pain and grief. We can get back our lost wellness.We are designed this way and have done it since millions of years. This new culture of isolation,egoistic solitude and celebrity-like aloofness is a sure killer of our wellness. We are strong and robust people. We have the courage and confidence to be an innocent and fallible thing and show it to the world. Being what you are and how you are is the intelligence of innocence, which need the ultimate courage and confidence. Show it to everyone that you have it in loads.
Query Yourself:
Am I equally good at sharing my joys as well as pains?Do I have the artistry to associate people with my downtime emotions?Do I have enough people to share my pains and do I reciprocate the same?**
