POWER AND POSSESSION

The Self is a wonderful place to be in, especially when it has realized, the three essentials contained by the Tree of Self, an individual’s spiritual affirmation and knowledge of the Self contained by the ‘temple’. Power and Possession are characteristics which are synonymous with the PROSPERITY of SELF. A yearning for Power and Possession is a psychological aspiration, which the Self needs to experience within, which leads to a content individual. Out of temple, materialistic or worldly Power and Possession can lead to tyrannical arrogance, when an individual is not accustomed to giving orders or reigning over others in an amicable way.

We as humans, are beings of Power and Possession. It is in our nature to take control in everything around us and in anything that wants to consume, manacle our physical, mental and emotional power. We are beings of rebellion and at times nonconformists in the ways of our forced habitual habitat. When an individual’s survival is, in any form threatened, and their living conditions are reduced to a degrading unruly state of chaos and free-falling pillaging. Is Power and Possession the right path for us humankind? To be in the right place in mind and spirit, is to understand that the material wealth that we are all casing, brings greed unto the world and kills the bonds that people had formed for years or decades.

Power and Possession is aligned with knowing how to talk the talk, walk the walk and walk the talk. Talking the talk is a mental centralism position, linked to your mental capacity – a loud mouth can be as load as they want, with sense or lack of sense, without acting on their rhetoric, it means nothing. Walking the walk, aligns to the impression of physical stimulus which is a form of physical dependence, which can be senseless, ineffective or null and void minus the talk. Walking the talk is an effective acquisition of results to the an individual’s goals in life – allies to Power and Possession. However, walking the talk can be arrogant, cold and lethal when talk turns dictatorial and dogmatically overtly that it shows the dark side of an individual’s hunger for Power and Possession, consequently the walking turns physically aggressive and diabolically uncompromising thus brings chaos unto the world (reflections of World War Two).

Out of temple or out of body acquisitions are meant to make one feel better about life and their individual efforts, however the buck stops there. Steve Biko, father of ‘Black Consciousness’, spoke of the “Noble Savage” (I write what I like: 1978), a relative concept that was not exploited to its peripheral nuances, to what it means to be a savage and yet be noble. A Noble Savage, means a person that is in a position of nobility or affluence, talking the talk, but is savagery in their actions - their way of doing things or leadership quality. A Noble Savage tells you what you want to hear, and does something else to the contrary of what was said. It’s a ‘you my friend with a smile and I’ll stab you in the back later’ type of thing. A Savage of nobility is an earthly dictator that aims to pillage a nation of its wealth and livelihood of its masses without considering, the consequences of their savagery actions.

A Noble Savage, thinks not of the inner spiritual entity that its masses need, coupled with the daily survival essential. A Noble Savage thinks not of their country, other than their possession perception in their pockets. A savage promises numerous things, but delivers zilch. Its yearning and acquiring of Power and Possession is uncompromisingly attributed to destruction to attain respect and honor. A Noble Savage thinks not of its Nation but its self-centered persona in pursuit of Power and Possession.

Out of temple, materialistic or worldly Power and Possession can undeniably lead to tyrannical arrogance, when an individual is not accustomed to giving orders or reigning over others in an amicable way. Power and Possession does not build resonance to acting love, transcending-love and to self-belief, it can assist in maintaining your self-worth, and serving as a humanitarian tool for the betterment of the world and humankind, when power and its possession is used in a proper way, to serve and protect. The Self knows no savagery ways, it is taught to be violent through earthly acquisitions.
