Lain – The voice of your soul

Understanding the subject of vibration, tuning, and so on is much easier as long as you have some «developed taste». A developed taste is to be aware that there are some aspects of reality that make you feel great to be involved in, beyond the results. It can be painting, football, biology, whatever, an activity that makes everything in you «resonate» without disturbing your ears. Now, how do you know if you are performing your taste or just repeating inherited habits? Very simple, when you do what you like, you don’t get tired.

On the other side of doing what you like is doing what you don’t like and, just like doing what you like puts you in a «positive vibe», doing what you don’t like puts you in a»negative vibe». Consider what most of the thoughts of a person who lives with a person he loved but no longer loves would be like. What would be the thoughts of someone who plays football not because they want to, but because their parents think they want to? That is, many people are overwhelmed because they do things they don’t want to do just because they repeat other people’s patterns.

As you can see, our behavior is governed by a system of social agreements, which includes a type of dress and even a type of hairstyle, as well as a type of vocabulary. These covenants are nothing more than the result of a host of beliefs that are shaped over time, some of which change rapidly while others seem immutable for centuries. What is truly cruel is to impose yourself, or to allow yourself to be imposed a belief system contrary to one’s own nature, that is the formula for unhappiness because in this way one can only live in constant dissonance.

But suppose that for some unfathomable reason you discover that polytheism is wrong and that the real thing is monotheism, while you are living in a polytheistic society, how easy do you think things would be for you? How can a schoolteacher who doesn’t use a cell phone – and who hates «these new technologies» – be able to have a meeting with a parent using Skype, or some similar means? What I am marking is that if you change, if you renew your belief system, or if you affirm yourself in one that is different from the traditional, the most logical thing is that you encounter some opposition.

Finally, things begin to work when you know exactly what you want, and this question is usually not easy to grasp because in the normal way we arrive not at adulthood, but at youth itself loaded with layers and layers of alien concepts and judgments that we assume as our own without any criticality whatsoever. So, after 20 or 30 years of living in inertia it is difficult to make a stop in the march to see if the one we are carrying is really our rhythm, and if we follow the path we really want. As you can see, there really is no secret.
