An Unexamined Life Becomes Commercial & A Market

To really look at our life objectively,

One has to examine all the accepted beliefs,

Ideas,

Theories,

Rumors,

See clearly how the mind is influenced by those ideas of thoughts and how the mind is conditioned to that.

When the mind is being influenced,

The mind doesn't know what is actually taking place.

For example,

In this commercial world,

There are so many commercial advertisements from the media,

From the subway,

From the bus stop,

The shopping mall,

It's everywhere.

The purpose of these commercial advertisements is to stimulate people's desire to want,

To buy,

To possess.

You see,

The advertisements are using all kinds of beautiful images,

Pleasurable ideas,

Cunning verse to attract people's attention.

When one wants to buy something,

Is this a wanting from the influence or it is really based on the actual need?

Most people don't examine it.

When this life becomes a market,

The wanting,

The need is dominated by the media,

By the commercial advertisements.

And this culture becomes commercial.

If one looks closely at the society,

It is merely some commercialism,

Consumerism,

Nothing else.

And the mind is being influenced,

Stimulated,

Aroused by all kinds of commercial elements,

Propaganda,

Views,

Theories.

And this becomes most people's life.
