RE: The Effects of Power - Part 5 - Resistance to Power
This was a great series. Perhaps you should take your articles together and make a DBook out of it?
"Resistance is the opposition to Power, that can be informal and clandestine"
The "clandestine" is very interesting and true to the point. From my experience, resistance starts with the WILLINGNESS to change something. Before we take the corresponding action, nobody might see that we are actually developing resistance, hence clandestine. Great word selection!
Your state of matter theory ( solid, liquid, gaseous ) is brilliant. No teaching book at school or University will be so creative yet to the point.
Thanks a lot, for the suggestion, because I want to pass this important messages to expand the people's ability to understand how their lives are being manufactured and impacted by the actual concentration of power.
Since I was a kid I was always fascinated by the people that belonged to all the Resistances in Europe during the War and read all the books I could about this.
How can this people totally risk their lives for the collective freedom?
Well, the first time I saw this phenomenon of power as an energy , I was around a group of people changing color from black to white during a group session of LSD(more than 35 years ago), and I later interpreted that it was the Power of the egos being diluted, because, in the end, everybody was white, but soon our ego will get Solid again.
So the anxious waiting for the trip to come up, when it starts everybody is black and trying to solve the Solid power of the prison of the Ego, but after there is an explosion of light which is the Gaseous state(sense of some chaos to control us), after the middle of the trip, reality gets more Liquid and stabilized, and in the end we go back to the solid prison of our ego's Power(but relaxed because we have seen our darkness).
Later reading about power I saw that the process was the same in social reality, like Power being the "Ego of Reality."
And I related it to state I saw in 1974/75 after the fall of fascism in Portugal and its African colonies.
We have to be eternally curious and question reality as fundamental knowledge for survival.
