Hate: The Ultimate Control Mechanism
Many of the layers
and subtleties in Orwell's 1984, though fixed for the sake of fiction, so
perfectly reflect the nonfictional world; the impulses of totalitarian
institutions and the spirit of individuals, that it has become a near timeless
representation. Arguably the most
significant political fiction ever written, 1984 begins with the daily Two
Minutes of Hate during the time period "in preparation for Hate Week." Hatred is a control mechanism.
The more repressed
a society the more hateful all within must be.
In order for oligarchical collectivism to take hold, in order for the
few to benefit over the many without recognition or revolution hatred must be
infused. Hatred leads to the "us and
them" mentality which drives clever reasoning to convince people to kill and be
killed in the name of an institutional godhead.
The more repressive and evil an institution the more hatred they will
drive and instill.
During World War
Two, from which much of 1984 is derived, hatred was used amongst all sides so
as to enable the killing of others.
During World War One both sides believed they were fighting for liberty
and freedom and believed the others were evil to enable the killing of others. Today hatred is used just as it was in 1984
and in all wars to stagnate society and keep our minds closed. Hatred results in close-mindedness and being
closed to our power.
Buddha taught
compassion and became and enlightened being meditating on it. Compassion is the opposite of hate and has
the opposite effect on our body, mind, spirit and surroundings. Hatred allows us all to be tricked into not
seeing the brotherhood of man. Hatred
allows institutions to promote war and killing.
Hatred leads to closed mindedness and closes one off to healing
spiritual energy. The reason many
spiritual or energetic practices will not allow certain people to learn certain
things is because our energy is closed, blocked off and littered with hatred,
so much of it we sometimes don't realize it's there.
There is no way to
reap the reward of spiritual energy if you are closed off and have hatred
within. There is no way to begin to heal
yourself and surroundings if you hold hatred for any of god's creatures on
different paths. If you have hatred and
are inspired by hatred you have been convinced like some Outer Party shmuck in
1984 to serve institutional interests. The only way to be open to energy, the only
way to be open-minded is to be completely open to compassion and
forgiveness. That does not mean to
accept foolishness or violence, but accept that everyone of god's creatures is
on a path of ascension and we were all fools at least once perhaps many times
and we are capable of being fooled at any time.
Esoterically be open to compassion leads to open access to energy. Exoterically being open to compassion makes
it so we cannot be fooled into taking action on behalf of violent or exploitive
institutions promoting hatred.
