The Unspeakable Sorrow of Self-Ignorance
Did you know that human beings are the only creatures that anticipate something to fear, and who then try to protect themselves from some form of perceived threat that only exists... because they have imagined it does?
Which means, as well, that human beings are the only creatures that create their own enemies!
And, perhaps saddest of all is that human beings are prisoners of their own self ignorance...
...As there really is no other prison apart from those created by this unconscious nature. Not even physical prisons. The only reason there is a need for them... is because of self-ignorance manifesting itself at every possible level of our physical and psychological existence.
