How do we free ourselves from the ongoing brainwashing of society?
How To Deprogram Yourself From Cultural Programming
Introduction
It seems around every corner is another attempt at trying to make you a consuming, sleep-walking, over-eating and insensitive human being. There are actual steps you can take to avoid being bitten by the zombie society which seeks control over you.
Religion.
Mind control and religion go hand in hand. It ensures we remain separate from one another and encourages wars, inquisitions and crusades, all in the name of "God."
There's a bumper sticker you see now and again which reads: "I don't know and you don't know either." This sums up the reality as for as religion goes. It should be left at that. Go ahead and go in your room and pray to whoever or whatever you want. Case closed. Instead organized religions stuff their beliefs down everyone's throat while promoting a life of subservience, conformity and total control under an entity which there is zero proof exists. We are but a speck in the universe, with likely many other life forms out there, yet our arrogance wants us to believe that we are the only chosen one's in existence, born and bred by a "God" of some sort.
Solution: Always ask questions and think for yourself. Don't be guided by those who are out for control, rather than seeking rationality.
Money
Follow the money and you'll run into religion. Mega churches, guru's, endless hucksters asking for donations, there's big money floating around in the religion racket. But money in general is the ultimate time sucker as we are always scrambling for more and often find ourselves on a fifty hour week hamster wheel which leaves us so drained that we end up defeated vegged out in front of a square box to numb the pain. And then it starts all over again on Monday. Did you do anything to help the world out on your two days off? Wouldn't time be spent more wisely by contributing to enjoying the limited time we have here, while helping to better the planet and attempt to reverse the destruction we've already done, mainly due to the goal of profit?
Solution: Not everyone is able to go off grid and live a self sustainable life outside the system. Most of us are embedded in a society that requires money to function and thrive at what we want to do. Figure out a form of happiness that fits you, then try to figure a way to make a living off of that. There will likely be day jobs to endure until you can achieve what you are going after, but attempting to work for yourself can be more fulfilling than being a cog in the machine. Buy local and avoid supporting the machines out there that treat their workers like interchangeable parts.
Nature
It's near unbelievable how we've taken the glory and beauty of nature and polluted the crap out of it. Whether it's the sickening oil dumps in water to the disgusting smog in the sky, we've done some number on our planet. Nevertheless, we need to stay connected to nature, especially in the cell phone, computer screen eyes glazed over times we live in.
Solution: Appreciate nature by making it part of your regular activity. Get out in it, whether it's the woods or the ocean. Immerse yourself in nature on a regular basis to counteract the robotic/zombie state which society wants to push through television and internet consumption.
Television
TV is a huge mind control tool. Watch how your mind and your mood shifts after a segment of typical mainstream news. Ratings depend on riling people up. Mainstream news is designed to do that. TV shows nowadays are designed to do that. And of course commercials are designed to con you into liking a particular brand.
The television has a numbing effect. It does something to our senses which puts us into a state of submissiveness.
Solution: Naturally, end your TV consumption. Or else record programs so you can skip through commercials, or at least mute them when they come on. Focus on programming which advances your inner self or adds to the understanding of the world around you.
Meditate.
Meditation is a huge tool to combat the brainwash effect. It's a proven tool as well. The two biggest roadblocks for people are "I don't have the time" and "I can't clear my mind." Both excuses are completely invalid and seeing as meditation has such strong value, creating the time and learning to clear the mind is essential.
It leads to a more centered individual, massively less stress, and a much cool and calmer demeanor, all of which are key elements in avoiding the societal brainwash. There are many forms of meditation to look into and clearing your mind can actually be done whether you are in the middle of the desert or in cramped in a train.
Solution: Study the different forms of meditation. Take 5-10 minutes a day and practice it regularly.
Body Cleanse.
It's incredible what has been placed in our mainstream food nowadays. A plethora of ingredients we can't even pronounce. Red #5's, MSG's, corn syrups, GMO's and artificial ingredients of all sorts. How did this happen? Well, it somehow did happen and as a result 55 countries have actually banned GMO's, naturally the mind numbing, pharmaceutical industry driven United States is not one of them.
Solution: Eat organic whenever possible, and as much as possible. Is it worth it to you to spend a few bucks more on something that you know wasn't sprayed with pesticides? It should be. Filter your water, avoid foods with ingredients you can't pronounce, cook healthy meals rather than consuming store bought meals containing MSG's, high fructose corn syrups and high levels of sodium.
Education.
The education system is a failure and a joke as outdated teaching methods are being employed to a populace of children who are operating at much faster rates than previous generations. When you can push a button on your phone and get an immediate answer, then you are dealing with an entirely new kind of student which needs to be stimulated in new ways.
We have also learned much more in recent years, with many new questions to be asked. Yet it's in the interest of society to avoid those questions, stick with the slanted, outdated history books and ensure control as a sense of dumbing down is enforced.
Solution: Homeschooling is a definite option. Teach your kids about how the world truly works and practice the skills necessary to successfully navigate through it all without ended up a slave to society, massively in debt, and mentally unstable due to all the stress which standard schooling treats as normal.
Conclusion:
As you see, there are options for getting through all the programming and purposeful stress inducing societal situations. Follow a more natural path and focus on keeping your mind intact. Avoid consuming garbage, both in food form and mind control (TV/Religion) form. Focus on finding out where happiness lies within you and follow that path, while figuring out ways to help sustain your surroundings.
