<h2><b>Is it normal to follow the norm ?</b></h2> </br> </br>
<p>Suppose you are on the road, driving at full speed. Are you more at peace when you see that there is nothing obstructing the road, or when there are obstacles on the highway ?</p>
<p>Suppose you are trying to enjoy the sun outdoors, do you want there to be anything obstructing the sunrays from reaching you? </p>
<p>This is all you are doing when taking up identities, beliefs, compulsions, and allowing them to permanently stick to you.</p>
<p>You have taken up masks after masks, placed it on your face, one on top of the other, and now they have begun to stick to your face. You are unable to take them off without being in pain. Over time you may have even given up trying to remove them, and probably you have even started to accept this mess as your new normal.</p>
<pre><code class="nim">
After all, everyone's like that, why does it matter if i become like them aswell, i'll fit right in !
</code></pre>
<p></p>
</pre></code>
<p>Thing is, even if you're in a madhouse where being mad is considered being normal, you better stay mentally sane and refuse to fit in, especially if you want the ones that are stuck there to come back to mental stability one day. </p>
<p><b>In this madhouse of a world where everyone has lost their way, whoever truly has clarity will initially be percieved as mad, but only the sane one realizes that everyone's been mad the whole time.</b> </p>
<p>This is where the crux of the problem is, the less you exert your ability to choose how to be, how your body is, how your mind is, how your emotions are, how your very life energy is, the least control you have over it. When you start making it normal to loose control over them, do not be surprised that they start to deteriorate and break down.</p>
<p>Which is normal ? Is it normal to throw your hands up and just proclaim that you are only human ? Or is normal to refuse to accept your current limitations as being normal ? Are you going to accept being forever stuck in your current state of being ? </p>
<p>Do you seriously believe that this body of yours, and this mind of yours, were designed to produce suffering ? On the contrary, they are designed to produce incredible levels of wellbeing.</p>
<p>To be able to evolve from where you currently are, into the one you are supposed to become, you must be willing to lay waste to everything that you believe you want, need, know, and are. <b>However, the necessary dissolution that needs to happen is not physical in nature. It is of a mental nature.</b></p>

<h2><b>Nihilism: in Nothing we trust</b></h2> </br> </br>
<p>In philosophy, nihilism; from Latin nihil 'nothing') is any viewpoint, or a family of views, that rejects generally accepted or fundamental aspects of human existence, namely knowledge, morality, or meaning.</p>
<p>While it is often mistaken for pessimism and depression due to being about "Nothing", Nihilism counterintuitively is actually essential to your mental health, especially if you have concretized thought patterns, and reinforced identities and beliefs.</p>
<p>Your inability to control your own mind comes from having all those identities, beliefs, and compulsions. <b>Your inability to control your mind is the only reason you are miserable.</b></p>
<p>It's about time you start to take back control over your own mind. What happens outside of you may not always be in your control, but <b>Everything that happens within you is 100% in your control if you choose it to be</b>. Let's take back control of it shall we ?</p>
</br>
<img src="2.png" class="imgRz">
<p>My approach to Nihilism is structured around the 3 main variables that can be influenced over your own mind, your identities, your beliefs and your compulsions.</p>
<p>It is composed of 3 Mantras, each are designed to dissolve a facet of your own current way of thinking and your current way of percieving things.</p>
<p><b><u>The Three Nihilism Mantras:</u></b></p>
<pre><code class="nim">
<a href="../sum-nihil/index.html">Sum Nihil:</a> to dissolve your identities
Inhalation: I am nothing,
Exhalation: I am noone
<a href="../scio-nihil/index.html">Scio Nihil:</a> to dissolve your beliefs
Inhalation: I know nothing,
Exhalation: I know nothing else
<a href="../opus-nihil/index.html">Opus Nihil:</a> to dissolve your compulsions
Inhalation: I want nothing,
Exhalation: I need nothing
</code></pre>
<p></p>
<p>None of those sentences may make sense at first, but in their own way these are all deeply rooted in reality (<b>i have rewritten them more than 50 times over the course of the last 10 years, with daily use</b>). There is a way to percieve each mantra, in a way that makes sense, <u>to give it additional weight as a fundamental reality that shouldn't be forgotten</u>, upon mentally uttering them. </p>
<ol>
<li><a href="../sum-nihil/index.html">Sum Nihil</a>: Do you truly matter in the grand scheme of things? Among 8 billion humans, Are you truly as special as you think ?</li>
<li><a href="../scio-nihil/index.html">Scio Nihil</a>: How can you possibily know anything at all ? Do you realize the magnitude of your own ignorance ?</li>
<li><a href="../opus-nihil/index.html">Opus Nihil</a>: What is it that you truly want ? What is it that you truly need ? What do you even need to survive ?</li>
</ol>
<p>All you need to make use of them is to sit comfortably in one place, to close your eyes, and to intentionally and repeatedly, mentally utter each sentence in synchronisation with your breath.</p>
<p>Each thought being mentally uttered, must last the entire duration of the Inhalation or Exhalation. Given the level of focus it takes to maintain it over long stretches of time, if you are doing it correctly, you shouldn't be able to fall asleep while doing it, especially if you are intentionally slowing down your breath the whole time.</p>
<p>Give it a solid try (do it <b>once a day for at least 5 minutes at a time</b>) if your mind hasn't stopped producing internal suffering for a long time. </p>
<p>One of the first signs that this is working, is if when you stop uttering the mantras, and just breathe normally without eyes still closed, <b>your mind should be able to remain at ease, without thinking unecessarily.</b> You will be able to enjoy the sunrise in the morning, you may rediscover small things that you may have forgotten about, such as how beautiful nature can be, and how peaceful it can be. </p>
<p>Keep in mind that this is to remain a daily practice, it can be practiced whenever you have a few minutes to sit by yourself, quietly with your eyes closed. </p>
<p>Make no mistake, it is very easy to fall back in the trap of being identified with things that you are not, believe things that you do not truly know, and fall into new compulsory behaviors. But at least when you are taking a break from the madness, you are able to see when you are stepping into it and when you are stepping out of it.</p>
<p><b>The virtue in annihilating everything that is not truly you, is because in the end, Only the real you will remain</b>, and the real you, while being ineffable, and impossible to describe with words, is perfect in every way.</p>
