Fcuk yeah ... who is fool and who is self aware. Please tell us.
these words i can think of now...
----------
the fool is the one who is not self-aware, and who is self-aware??
- he is one who knows that he lives within the biggest ecology which is the unknowable boundaries of true nature... space.... and no mysticism-ritual-hope-prayer can remove him from this ecology or make him superior to this ecology.
- he is one who knows that he lives within a local ecology which he affects by his decisions, right or wrong... and this local ecology in turn has affect on him.
- he is one who knows that no mysticism-ritual-hope-prayer can relieve him of disease.
- he is one who knows that he must be gentle, thoughtful, act when he must, learn silently, considerate, kind, supremely compassionate, far-seeing... in other words he must follow the way of the cat... all great leaders and peoples in history have supremely respected the cat, either to the point of worship or in non-idolatrous non-mysticism way... he cares for the cat, protects the cat, removes any enemy to the cat... any society with comfort for the cat is the best society for him and his fellow humans, this he knows.
- he will reject the superstitions and unjust beliefs of his local culture, parents, community... he will preach to them at times, he will call them fool other times, and when needed he will fully act against them... he will reject any attempt which forwards mysticism/mythology in form of idols ... he knows that no local respect for this idol can prevent a foreigner from defeating this idol, because the idol is not supreme at all... it has the same mortal defects as its human makers who can be felled by bullet or disease.
- he will reject any tribalism, racialism and nationalism... he knows that humanity is one, with similar deficiencies and similar dependencies on the local ecology and outer ones.
- his loyalty is only to justice, equality and freedoms for all... he judges this with common sense... he uses ideas in history, present times and those his own... he rejects any person, any society, any idea that goes contrary to justice/equality/freedoms... he is ready to take direct action against those who go contrary.
- he knows that his younger age does not mean that someone thrice his age is automatically right... that is foolish... his grandparents may be utter fools, and he must not accept their self-proclaimed legitimacy.
- he knows that he must not judge someone by their present economic situation... a person may be fool but very rich... a person may be destitute but a genius... he is destitute because he is oppressed.

okay, these all for now.
