Hey Vimal,

I feel ya buddy! I resonate with a lot of what you're saying. I was contemplating this yesterday actually. So, yes, there's the 'need to fit in'. It's important to explore where that is coming from. What do you feel you need from the people around you in order to feel complete?

But then it's important to notice that there's a truth underneath all that. Once the ego is out of the way there's still a soulful expression, which for me is 'blending into other realities'. So the question then becomes, how can I honour that reality while still maintaining clarity in my own? Sometimes, as you said, it's just 'smile and nod'. Other times it may feel right to challenge the reality or mix things up.

I was thinking, what's the best way to work the energy in the system, to break it down over time and uncover the 'truth'? I don't believe that shouting our truth from the hilltops is the answer at all, though one or two flag-bearers are needed. But if lots of people do this it just builds a resistance; an immediate poo-pooing by people that could have otherwise been made aware. Instead I see a much more powerful way to do it: by blending in with the distorted reality to a certain extent and become like a mole within the system. Thus you transform it from within. Practically what this means is not encouraging people to alter their opinions, but instead encouraging further awareness of themselves; further questioning of their realities. Then, the controlling agenda slowly shatters from within.

Much love,

Rich
