This is a word Nietzsche said being one of those sentences I can never forget. Community makes people somehow common.

I want to speak of social interferences being at work even without being aware of it. It is not about complaining as many people do in contemporary times. Many complain out of boredom which is actually a saturated boredom. It serves as stimulant to feel they are still alive. By complaining they get a higher blood pressure and feel their heart beating. A short push of anger, and then it`s over. Till the next occasion, maybe today or tomorrow, who knows.

All human being is mainly mental related, and mental expressions unfold preliminarily in language and patterns of thinking including kinds of perceiving and interpreting being and world.

There is nobody having no relation to other humans. Although maybe a mental construct, we find ourselves as individuals among and under groups of other individuals forming a society. Hegel described the relation as dialectical.

Social constructs - society - interfere individuals in manyfold ways. Generally we see that in the structure of our language.

The basic structure of a sentence is SPO - subject, predicate, object. The subject as acting part - predicate - is acting with or against something or someone - object: I (S) eat (P) an apple (O).

Such sructure is clearly telling about the imprtance of the subject - it is the main acting part, the part to which the sentence is dedicated. The subject is the maker.

Therefore "I" is spelled as capital letter, "I" do and receive things, "I" am lord of the world, "I" frame and manage and model what is to frame and manage and model. Our western language is mirroring our perception of the importance of "I".

By losing grip of God and whatever metaphysical ground the West had undergone a process of emancipation. The western human had to consider the "I" as most important in order to survive. Funny enough, christendom has helped in this.

Capitalism, utiliarism and free market are results which were necessary to occur. And Marx taking Hegel as ground, developed the dialectical opposite - the theory of dialectical marxism. Marx explaines human history as following necessaily certain laws in which he replaced Hegel`s "Weltgeist" (world spirit) with the proletariat. He introduced the open and distinct class struggle into human history. This opened a door to atrocities the world has not seen before.

So we have language. We have class struggle. We have atrocities. And we have the results of western humanity having lost any metaphysical ground.

Now the market and economy have found it`s way in the minds of humans. People are dealing with each other in the spirit of economy. Tooth by tooth, measure by measure, I give you this, you give me that. There are not many having a mind of generosity and bounty.

In order to keep the rat race going another spirit has found it`s way to human minds - excessive keeping care of health, appearance and smiling. At the end of the 80s the "hairless allover" came From America to Germany. It is funny. Now most people are shaved all over - shaved dicks, breasts, pussies. arms and legs.

Every second guy is using same smell of Eau de Toilette. And most have similar hair cuts. Meanwhile a phenomenon is taking place we can hear in the radio - the over presence of boy like men with high voices. The old style man with a deep voice has almost vanished. We are surrounded by an army of almost complete uniformed wimpy and "Hogo Boss" smelling men.

And not better are the ladies many Germans call "Baby pussies". Same procedure - hookers have "Chanel No. 5", bussiness ladies "Dolce&Gabana" perfume (both are a little more expensive), the rest smells similar with cheaper stuff. And similar are the topics of conversation - mostly cars and football (men) and dressing and fashion and kids (ladies).

A big thing is still love and relations. Book stores have become full with books on the subject in recent years. Many look for longer relations even in younger years while at the same time there is a big interest in having special and wild sex experiences. And many look for their "twin flames".

Well, I guess it shows in what mental "climate" contemporary western humans have to live, a climate of both pleasure and temptation. The modern human is exposed to unbelievable forces of stress, restlessness and recklessness. It is a mentality demanding a high price. It has made countless people sick and tired. Last week a mentally stressed woman in a village I used to live for many years stabbed her mother and killed her. And at the same time a man in another town I know very well tried to kill an old man with an axe.

It should not surprise those patterns I described being actually mental instances also interfere strongly with minds of awakened ones. Those people often have to struggle with ego affairs which is maybe a sign of being in a process of awakening, and they need to be encouraged to keep going the way of seeing and understanding.

I wrote those lines in order to help understanding better what is going on and what people suffer, and they actually suffer a lot. Even now, that I discovered myself being somehow a starseed I still would rather stay with unawakened folks I love than leaving this plane because "I look to be saved". I have deep difficulties with spiritual ego games. I`d rather would let me call a "loser" than appearing a triumphant Jack of all trades. I believe in the power of love and patience and fragility. And I believe in the power of dignity of the small ones which have no lobby.

Finally I have to confess that I discovered Nietzsche my kinsman. I deeply affirm his sentence on community, even with spiritual communities I have my difficulties. I can`t help but stand here as I am...

Again I ask for gentle and kind consideration...
