To share a file is NOT to steal.

I doubt the corporate mindset assumption because our culture is distinguished by a context that:

01 Maintains profound thinkers busy in universities with “high talk” that blinds them through arrogance and pride. Does not let these thinkers to spread ideas freely because there is an obligation to constantly establish their authority through academic circles that does not contradict the mainstream ideas. (See Archive Freedom and an article on science suppression ) Provoking guilt in order to prevent sharing of valuable information. As a result, information is controlled through a peer pressure.

Goal: Control information that leads to critical thinking.

02 Creates fear in order to control. Disseminates disinformation that leads to fear. Creates propaganda that controls people’s morality. Controls creator’s beliefs, so their only option is falling into the corrupt corporate claws.

Goal: Control content creation through fear and false or non-fulfilling hope.

03 Allows the perpetuation of the belief that money provides the necessary control to thrive. Money is the goal that everyone should seek. Peer pressure is applied to those who believe and act differently to that mindset.

Goal: Control people’s identity and true desires through greed.

We live within a culture that is based on the latter ideas, but if we change those assumptions our broken belief system will change. Let’s return to our original premises: “To share a file is to steal” or “To share a file is NOT to steal”, so we can analyse how structures of power create fear to control how we think.

If we know that each idea that has been assumed as true comes from a structure of power, then how can we work without that assumption? We need to challenge common sense ideas through multiple perspectives. Let’s see why sharing a file is not to steal. Let’s being with an example that copies without any regards of our morality: Nature.

Nature is not guided by corporate greed or human belief. Nature is a good basis that challenges human bias. Now, nature copies naturally and creates small variations with each copy. Why does nature copy? What is the purpose of copying? Why have we become a culture that rejects nature’s basic principle?

We would not be here if our cells hadn’t copied from our parents cells. This is a fact. So, how can our morality go against the pattern that has allowed our existence? The answer is greed. If we have destroyed nature without regard of the consequences, why wouldn’t we go against ourselves due to that same greed?

Well, we could be going against ourselves if we support corrupt corporations’ greed because these prevent us from living fulfilled and being truly creative. We support these corporations because that is what we know, what we think keep us safe, what we think is right… But is it?

In order to maintain the idea that to share is a crime, we must accept it. Thus, social guilt is established through propaganda by corporate bullies. Rather than creating social responsibility toward true creators, we fall into a blind trap. They want you to feel guilty because your guilt is fear and acceptance toward their state of affairs as righteous although they are corrupt.

For example, a business guideline could be to wear a suit. Why do they want to force you into being like them? Your own style and creative thrust might go against their views, and you need to become them: a pattern that can be disposed if it does not satisfy the greedy structure of power. This has to stop! We are all unique, although similar…

The structure of power, corrupt corporations and governments, create fear to control us. They brainwash our everyday reality through propaganda with the hope that you will not be critical of them. For example, one symptom of being brainwashed is not accepting the fact that it could be possible. If you doubt yourself, then you are in a position to doubt others.

These power structures are afraid of you because those who create fear must have fear in their hearts first.
How much doubt is proper and where should decide that belief is necesary? Well, that is up to you and your knowledge of yourself and your surroundings. Feel, intuit, and express who you are! The discovery of yourself is part of this journey called life.

No one can take that away from you, only you can deprive yourself from such liberation. No one can tell you what is right, deep inside yourself a prism of love lights you with life and creativity, and it is up to you to discover it.

Remember that no power structure will even give you real security! If you realize this, then you can begin to set yourself free from the fear and anxiety that has allowed us to be insensitive toward others’ suffering.

What happens that in a few years some of the things we were most curious about become dull and understandable (although we may not understand the underlying functions or ways it works)?

We want to be a “know it all” society, but there are two ways we do it:

• We think we know. We become arrogant. You use the power of telling others you know it all to control and manipulate. Arrogance is far from knowing, it is the false feeling of a high self-esteem that comes with ignorance.
• We think we don’t know it, so we try by all means to understand, and when done… We will continue our curiosity through new or more detailed topics. Humility becomes the true path used to grow.

There will always be something you don’t know, but as we grow older we believe there are not more evident puzzles to understand.

I mean, not everybody works like this, but if most were curious till death, then this society would NOT be so viced with corruption, greed, and violence.

We linger for freedom and peace, but we don’t ask the right questions, nor we try to doubt ourselves and our patterns.

We are not free. We want to believe freedom comes with a government. Let me tell you: It does not work that way. Freedom exists inside of you, always. How can you make it visible? How can freedom we something real? How can we stop this illusion of a free government and people? By asking questions.

Why do I call it an illusion? Those who don’t ask questions are trapped in their own (or societies) beliefs.

A belief is an illusion. It is an idea we make a reality when in fact it only is real, at first, in your head, and maybe as a result of being in your head it may become a reality.

Freedom can be like that. You have a belief: I am free.

What is freedom? What is real? Who are you?

Ask: Is that real?
Answer: Yes. <- You are not free, but you will just cheat your brain into believing so.
Answer: No. <- You are not free, but there is no difference between answering “yes” because it is still a belief. An idea placed far away from actual freedom.
Answer with another question: What is real? <- Then, you will begin a quest. The most difficult one human nature has encountered. A question so many have tried to answer since the beginning of curiosity.

However, those who have found an answer have not found an answer for YOU. What is real to them will never be real to you, unless you truly understand it by yourself. How?

• Doubt common reasoning.
• Ask questions.
• Doubt your answers.
• Ask more questions.
• Let freedom enter.

Keep asking questions. Find out what freedom really means.

What is behind the inherent capacity to feel pain, pleasure, and everything that produces a physical reaction through your body?

In a way, it is obvious. There is a physical process involved when pain is created by our skin, but what is even more amazing is the psychological process of pain. This mental pain can be felt as deep as the physical one, but the mental one can be stopped through your own brain at will. Can it? We have been taught that pain is inevitable and uncontrollable. Is this true?

Why can’t we stop pain? Does that mean we cannot stop fear?

Have you ever paid attention to the physical pain as the uncontrollable begins to take control over your body? Have you ever accepted pain, instead of rejecting it as soon as you feel it take over you? Have you listened to your thoughts as the chain reaction unfolds? Have you analyzed the way your psychological pain affects your physical pain?

It is as if something that is not tangible, a thought, could create an alternate reality based on the data you possess at that moment. That is the reason most of us act, although we may not even be aware of it, you become a slave of thoughts.

If that is not crazy enough, those thoughts may result false or incomplete as time makes the truth be clearer. So, in such ignorance, we continue existing, creating chaos, and translating justice in our best suited verdict.

This at the long run creates a false world based on your own limits and prejudices, and we educate the next generation to act in the same way. We don’t question our own thoughts because the belief gives us a sense of being certain, safe, in control, and righteous.

Perhaps, we feel unconsciously that if we can keep that ‘unreal’ world, then the ‘truth’ will be that there won’t be any reason to feel fear. When in fact, fear comes each time that ‘world’ is in danger, psychologically speaking.

This is where rejection begins to rule society. We don’t understand the process in which fear beings to arise, so we try to repel everything that can endanger your sweet lies, so pain may not touch you.

The more you try to keep pain away, the more you fear. The more you fear, the closer you get to pain.

Fear is deeply related to pain, therefore, why do we feel both?

Thoughts create the perfect environment trying to keep everything in ‘order’, you don’t pay attention to them, so they become independent, they begin to form what you identify as your personality, sometimes even ‘who you are’. You are totally helpless. In a sense, you feel impotent, totally controlled, and abused.

However, you try to find excuses outside yourself. You may drink heavily or even use drugs to evade those irritating thoughts that create pain, and make you feel trapped in fear. Others, may do sports, do art, do science, and in a sense take the positive route to gain control, at least, keep it contained.

It is not enough, though.

Religion (with religion I mean any set of fixed beliefs that cannot be challenged) becomes the next path that gives security through an authoritarian ‘walked’ route. However, if the ‘religion’ does not let you understand yourself or the people surrounding the ‘religion’ try to control you…

Then on the contrary, it takes you to the ‘bliss of ignorance’ and self-denial. It can be another path to self destruction like any other kind of addiction where you live a high that keeps you there, but at the same time you may feel abused and reliant.

So, why do we feel pain, fear, etc.? I guess it is time to listen to your thoughts, and try to dissolve the reasons you suffer, live, and act. It is like using a turbine to move the fog around you, until you are ready to understand why does the fog follows you, and then… Get rid of it from the source, don’t spend your whole life trying to move the fog. Where does the fog come from?

Question those thoughts. Question the thoughts written here. Question, analyze, and live what freedom really means.

Let’s analyze why do people fight, perhaps even till death for a creed? Could it be possible that those who fight, and impose others their beliefs are afraid of losing their security because it is placed on those beliefs?

Why do they fight? Perhaps, it is a selfish belief or a belief that is not true.

If what is being said is the truth, others will reach that truth. It is only a matter of time… So, why do people fight defending a belief they are certain is for real? Perhaps, they are afraid of opening their eyes, and realize that their belief is not true.

It doesn’t really matter if my beliefs are real or not, but what do those beliefs cause me.

For example:
I might believe in God, so I behave loving and caring toward others because God is love. Or I don’t believe in God, so I behave loving and caring toward others because peace and love are some of the most wonderful aspects of life.

Who is wrong? The one who believes or not? None, why? Both are living according to their highest sense of humanity. I still don’t understand why we prefer to be blind, to fight, to be intolerant, and abusive toward those who don’t share our “common” standards.

We don’t need to have the same beliefs to be in peace, but we do have to be humble and loving to those who don’t share our same ideas because understanding will bring us peace. It is in those differences that humanity learns how to grow, and become better through generations of thought.

When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it–always. Mahatma Gandhi

We could all be wrong, but a loving life will be enough to understand we are humans, and therefore capable of doing mistakes. So, there is no need to fight, but there is a necessity of understanding…

Diversity is beauty.
Admiring it is love.
Love brings diversity.
So, those who accept diversity,
and admire it will live a peaceful life.

Mostly, understand ourselves because as we pretend to get to know others when we are actually strangers to ourself.

How can we spend so much time with others when we don’t spend time to observe ourselves? Could it be that we are afraid of the unknown within ourselves?

Life is from the inside -> out, but it takes some courage to admit it because if it comes from the inside:

I am responsible for each action taken by me and the train of thoughts chaining me to those actions.

That scares the hell out of a lot of people. They prefer to be blind, than to see something although they might not like what they see at first sight. However, remember if you choose to leave blindness… Those things that scare you will end up being wonderful because the translation of the senses into thoughts tend to be biased.

The only way to live peace is to give peace. Don’t expect it to come from someone or something else.

Let’s learn each day something new, so we may become better and better; loving more and more.

How? I guess there could be many solutions, but at the end each one of us has to observe him/herself. What may function to me, may not work with you…

So here they are: Ideas, just that… words you will translate into your own belief system. Shake them, doubt them, and create your own wonderful world.

A possible reason we react with anger is a deceiving self-image that leads you to depression.

I try to imagine angry, but not depressed or sad people… and I can’t.

To change this we need to observe ourselves when you are sad or angry. Have you listened to those depressing thoughts, and doubted them? Tough? Practice is needed, and many times at first you will not notice, but if you persevere you will find out what is beneath your anger.

Who wants to be with an angry person? We may do it but is that relationship healty? Do we want to live constantly with a person who is always angry?

We would prefer to be with someone who is happy because their happiness is contagious.

An example: I am angry because someone I loved left me. In fact, I am really sad, very sad, but I prefer to be angry because sadness is translated as a weakness.

However, to realize, accept and understand your sadness is really something tough. You need a lot of inner strength to perceive the process of sadness in relation to anger.

We don’t want to realize the reasons and ways to overcome the sadness, and the reality of it is kept inside of our minds. Then, we may have nightmares or dreams about it. We still don’t want to realize it.

Sadness is volatile, as is anger. If those feelings are so volatile, why are we so persistent in bringing them on? Do we want to live saddened or angry? Do you know more examples?

Now… Why do we react with anger?

01 If we are sad we don’t want to discover the complete nature of our sadness, then it is probable we will continue acting with anger rages until we learn the reasons it is not the best for us.

02 It is a way to cover sadness. The mind may have this idea: If I am angry, I am strong. I am sad, I am weak. I am strong. I will get angry, instead of being depressed.

However that depression leads us to be angry, and anger brings us more depression because people who are surrounding us may stay away from us due to fear. They may be afraid of your anger or tired of dealing with it.

You don’t need money nor fame. You just have to listen to those thoughts, doubt them, be aware of their consequences as you believe them…

You need to eat right. Do some exercise. Why? Body chemistry also plays an important role.

Why do we want to be angry? There is no positive effect. At a long term, we may realize that anger has had a terrible impact in ourselves. Why do we want to be sad?

You may say… Sadness cannot be controlled.

You don’t need to control it. You just need to be alert (become aware), so you can be conscious of it when it arises. You will see sadness, instead of seeing through sadness.Thus, by doing so, you will be able to understand it and perhaps find out there is no reason to be sad.

So, do you want to be angry and sad? Or, better yet, Do you want to be happy and fulfilled?
It’s up to you! Be Happy! Couldn’t do it today? Don’t worry, be happy! Wouldn’t it be awsome to be happy most of the time?

It is ironic that we may be alone many times, and never feel lonely, but when we are sad or depressed we feel left alone. Who has left us alone, other people or ourselves? Who has been keeping others away, us or the others?

Can’t be happy? Smile… Fake it!

Then without noticing it instantly, the smile will become real…

You are happy. You are lucky. You are fantastic. You are great.
You are… THE MOST PRECIOUS AND WONDERFUL BEING I HAVE EVER MET or YET NOT MET… But I will. Why do I say this? Find it out!
