Industrial Society Destroys Mind and Environment
Dear Group Members,
I want to share my article with you. This is about the link between Mind and Social / Environmental-Issues. The fast-paced, consumerist lifestyle of Industrial Society is causing exponential rise in psychological problems besides destroying the environment. All issues are interlinked. Our Minds cannot be peaceful when attention-spans are down to nanoseconds, microseconds and milliseconds. Our Minds cannot be peaceful if we destroy Nature.
Thank you,
Sushil Yadav
Industrial Society Destroys Mind and Environment.
Subject : In a fast society slow emotions become extinct.
Subject : A thinking mind cannot feel.
Subject : Scientific/ Industrial/ Financial thinking destroys the planet.
Subject : Environment can never be saved as long as cities exist.
Emotion is what we experience during gaps in our thinking.
If there are no gaps there is no emotion.
Today people are thinking all the time and are mistaking thought (words/ language) for emotion.
When society switches-over from physical work (agriculture) to mental work (scientific/ industrial/ financial/ fast visuals/ fast words ) the speed of thinking keeps on accelerating and the gaps between thinking go on decreasing.
There comes a time when there are almost no gaps.
People become incapable of experiencing/ tolerating gaps.
Emotion ends.
Man becomes machine.
A society that speeds up mentally experiences every mental slowing-down as Depression / Anxiety.
A ( travelling )society that speeds up physically experiences every physical slowing-down as Depression / Anxiety.
A society that entertains itself daily experiences every non-entertaining moment as Depression / Anxiety.
FAST VISUALS /WORDS MAKE SLOW EMOTIONS EXTINCT.
SCIENTIFIC /INDUSTRIAL /FINANCIAL THINKING DESTROYS EMOTIONAL CIRCUITS.
A FAST (LARGE) SOCIETY CANNOT FEEL PAIN / REMORSE / EMPATHY.
A FAST (LARGE) SOCIETY WILL ALWAYS BE CRUEL TO ANIMALS/ TREES/ AIR/ WATER/ LAND AND TO ITSELF.

thanks for sharing, Sushil. These all seem like obvious deductions, but it merits recapitulation. all of us strapped into city life, must get out as often as possible to maintain healthy connections to planetary vibrations and rhythms. it is crucial and i believe possible to maintain an ecological awareness throughout every waking moment, every decision making process. For the interconnectedness of all things means everything we do has an impact... like, stop! and breathe and ask yourself¨what am i doing now, and how is it serving myself and my family, my community and my planet?
our individual roles in this fast paced monster can be reconfigured, so that we are less feeding the machine, and more reflecting its weaknesses and anomalies. As a cog, we can flip out, and disrupt the whole scene. We made be cut from the same cloth as a corporate entity, but we have the individual will and capability to jump out and grab the line and make it ragged. choose not to be a smooth link in a chain of demise. buck and kick habits of consumption, ignorance and exploitation. inevitability is for fatalists. what u say, fool?
