Sanity Is Impossibility by Santosh Jha (books to read in a lifetime txt) 📕

galvanized mechanisms in place to kill skepticism and instead install populism and conformism. Globally, it is one of the most prominent concerns of intellectuals that polity and economy are now powerful enough to even decide and execute as what people can and should think and feel. The sinews of control of polity-economy have been rooted deep inside the average human minds. Independent and critical thinking is some ‘weapon’ polity considers as more threatening than nuclear weapons and therefore, even when nuclear weapons disarmament is no more political agenda, disarmament of independent and critical human thinking is on top of the agenda of politics. Therefore, gradual and purposeful disengagement with mainstream polity and economy, as well as rationalized alignment with the twin domains is advisable.

There is a basic code of wellness, wired deep in our body-mind mechanism. This is also somehow the golden rule of sustenance of sanity in personal life. The singular code of wellness is this wired need of every human being to feel rewarded and relevant. Most people, as is their subconscious design, seek this ‘reward’ from external elements in outside milieus. In contemporary milieus, most people are dependent on society, polity and economy for their sense of reward and relevance. This leads most people to a complex and compounding domain of competitiveness and conflicts with people and identities. This is a major ‘unlearning’ requirement for personal sanity. We have talked earlier as how people take their liberties in the arena of fierce competitiveness of society, polity and economy, where there is overload of demands and short supplies. Already, 5 percent humans have 95 percent incomes and resources of the world. Therefore, for personal sanity, we need to ‘unlearn’ aligning our liberties to external elements and agencies and instead, learn the artistry to seek feeling rewarded and relevant from internal elements and agencies. It takes the higher consciousness to decipher that there is music playing inside our minds, there is dance and rhythm happening inside us, there is a huge talk going on inside our body and mind. They are huge fields of rewards. Then there are non-competitive domains of nature that beckons us. The family is warehouse of rewards. Friends and like-minded peers are less competitive and more compassionate domains of expression of our liberties. Our own body-mind media, its expression inside, and not the social media is an infinite agency of sense of reward-recognition. We need to reorient our personal connect and alignment with ‘self’, society, polity, economy and also religion-spiritualism. Time to ‘unlearn’ the consumption and possession oriented sense of reward and relevance in life and living.

Probably, one of the most important sanity issues is ‘unlearning’ love in our lives. We all need to ‘unlearn’ love and ‘learn’ compassion. We need to replace this hugely entropic passion of love in our lives with very holistic consciousness of compassion. The contemporary world puts us all in dire need of reorienting our instinctive and populist mind-training of ‘seeking’ to replace it with ‘giving’. It takes higher consciousness to truly decipher the huge spectrum of joys, satisfaction and sense of utmost reward of giving. Seeking is what we all have been trained since childhood, which is at the core of our ‘Liberty’ energy. We drag ourselves into the hell of unending competitiveness and conflicts by prioritizing seeking-oriented liberties. This subconscious self-indulgence with ‘seeking’ makes us passionately follow the dictates of love. In complete contrast, the compassion-oriented ‘giving’ consciousness makes us dump love and attain freedom from entropic causalities of love. Switching over from love to compassion; from ‘seeking’ to ‘giving’ itself can ensure near perfect sanity, system, poise and wellness in personal life-living.

To conclude, it must be with a very humble appeal. This sincere request is to kindly accept that human body-mind is a hugely powerful media with infinite potentials. The Reality itself is manifested and expressed through body-mind media. These potentials can only be attained when this body-mind media is in optimal state of health and poise. Therefore, the humble request is to accept that the primary enterprise in attaining personal sanity begins with paying optimal care and attention to health and well-being; both physical as well as mental. This is huge challenge in contemporary world. Health is primary and basic element as it readies the body-mind media towards the goal of compassion. It is hugely tough for an unhealthy and ailing man or woman to be truly compassionate. Compassion begins with our own body and mind. There is simply no possession, attainment or reward worth half a penny if health is missing optimality. Be healthy, be fit, be compassionate and let your higher consciousness reward you with most precious of attainments of sanity. All best.

About The Author

People say, what conspire to make you what you finally become are always behind the veil of intangibility. Someone called it ‘Intangible-Affectors’. Inquisitiveness was the soil, I was born with and the seeds, these intangible-affectors planted in me made me somewhat analytical. My long stint in media, in different capacities as journalist, as brand professional and strategic planning, conspired too! However, I must say it with all innocence at my behest that the chief conspirators of my making have been the loads of beautiful and multi-dimensional people, who traversed along me, in my life journey so far. The mutuality and innocence of love and compassion always prevailed and magically worked as the catalyst in my learning and most importantly, unlearning from these people. Unconsciously, these amazing people also worked out to be the live theatres of my experiments with my life’s scripts. I, sharing with you as a writer, is essentially my very modest way to express my gratitude for all of them. In my stupidities is my innocence of love for all my beautifully worthy conspirators!
