Pleasure Seeking Is The Root Of Violence & Aggression

When the mind is thinking about something,

The mind creates numerous fragments and gets trapped in the fragments.

There's this constant struggle within me,

The conflict within me,

And also the conflict between each other.

The mind is always changing one fragment for this temporary pleasure to override the issues created by other fragments.

So we are all busy.

Perhaps that's the essence of the business.

The mind is busy changing pleasure to override other issues temporarily.

In this business,

We can't meet each other.

The mind is changing its own ambition according to its own preference,

Views,

Idiosyncrasies,

And so on.

So you see,

This life which is purely based on thoughts is infinitely divisive.

And we are all struggling to maintain this mental stability because there are so many fragments within the mind arguing against each other.

And we all seek pleasure.

And this expansion of capitalism to this global world manifests this fundamental violence of pleasure-seeking.

It is also the root of the aggression.

In the past,

Colonization from the Western world now is this kind of global expansion of the capitalism.

It's the same thing.

It is all because the mind creates something greater,

Something more immense,

Something more exciting,

Something more interesting to get the pleasure,

To feel satisfied,

Fulfilled.

But we are still divided.

We are still struggling.

We are still busy dealing with all kinds of issues on a daily basis.

Nothing has really changed.

We are still where we were for a thousand years.

The mind is not happy.

It craves pleasure,

Fulfillment,

But it is not happy at all.

And look at our life.

Life has accumulated so many materials.

It is already rich enough,

But it is never enough because the mind is not happy.

The mind wants more.

This craving that is out of this self-assolation becomes something collective in this civilization.

And this global expansion is a natural consequence of that.

The internet now is everywhere,

Represents this connection in the consciousness.

But actually,

We are all oscillated.

This connection of wide internet borders on illusions.
