i know, dissensus is probably the worst place in the world to try and instigate a discussion of this nature, but fuck it, its worth a try. k-punk knows a little nietzsche and spinoza, meme knows some majick, sufi is called sufi,cornelius says hes a spiritual master. i been thinking about this a lot today becasue yesterday i started my not smoking phase and to be able to stop smoking requires a degree of self mastery and i'm feeling quite proud of myself. also, by coincidence, as my will was wavering, in walked a friend i haven't spoken to for years. he's just given up cocaine,weed and tobacco and kept talking about how he was in control of himself again and thats how he was as a child, and now hes got it back. will over everything.
i said, i don't think its that eas, as easy as just saying it. he disagreed. he thought that it was.
so yeah, the commanding self, well interesting, read about it in zarathrustra, sufi litereature,idries shah, 'majickal' literature, zen liteereature spinoza, k.punk archives etc etc
i think the control or lack of control you have over your actions is fascinating. but my brain isn't working that well at the moment so i was hoping to just join the discussion later on when you make it intersting. although you probably won't.
