 THE HORIZONTAL CONFLICT OF FEAR AND WASTE OF ENERGY


Living all days in the imaginary horizontal conflict produced by thought (the division of thought into the subject and the object) means living in fear. Thought has to plan for everything so that we don't lose too much of pleasures. Also thought has to plan for cancer and the like. Ultimately you have to prepare for the eventuality of your unfathomable end. So you have to save for your funeral too :)


So what is your boss hates you and wants to save on you? Or if the stock market crashes and your retirement pension goes puff in the bubble? Turns out it was all just printed toilet paper and electronic impulses somewhere nobody knows where. Oh, and don't you worry, the generals and ministers have spent your pension on the arms race and wars anyway :)


This is the content of the brain in the fragmentary perception of thought. Fear, sorrow, anger. Analysis, paralysis, planning. Some of it may be functional but most of it is just worrying and unnecessary dispersion of energy.
