Materialism observed……..

Sometimes one remains naïve whatever situation one is placed in. However much frailty appears the naïve thinks that it is possible by adjustment to be able to be able to ward off negatives within the material and seek that norm of being which is simply non existent. Or a case, of doing some tweaking here and there and all will then fit in place, The reality is far from this. Some minor adjustments always also has drawbacks in that it is based on the temporal where the idea or motivating factor remains at the base a question of simply of deriving pleasures and or contentment as that which makes one takes some actions, always for ever with a view to beget more and more of that which may not be achievable but pleasures unlimited is what in some ways makes the world go by. And that too needs doing in a fun mode whatever that may mean. For sure, there may not be a consensus as one person’s excitement may be another’s bore. Or there is no objective criteria for measuring what constitutes happiness.
For some the idea of happiness is cricket and others see it as premier league soccer whilst yet others turns to rugby or golf. Yet still others abhor all of these and saying that the escapism via cinema is better and still others find solace in art or a walk in the countryside. So it is verily the reader’s choice at deciding what the word fun may signify. To be sure, there is no consensus and yet one talks of it as if there is an agreed form.
All is perceived within that arena or realm of that mundane, or materialism which always measures in terms of gains and losses and seeking or deriving happiness to the avoidance of pain. The naïve always revel in the fun aspects which is trivial and lacks that which is of essence. In this sense, fun are that which a significant group may describe and it is best to leave this to be so rather than trying to make a firm pronouncement on this matter.
Unlike the diligent who through reflection may easily grasp the frailty of being, our comrade always carries on taking abuse unlimited at every moment whilst living in that mode of the superficial. To be alert is to rise above the beyond-ness of a framework of anger and hatred which operates at a level of the mind which tends to either lives in fragments state and or seek to maintain a division reflecting the nature of life as it unfolds in the material with its frictions, bickering and despair rather than hope. It is all a question of keeping foul at all times.
It is important that one deciphers that state of perpetual non-connection. That one feels concerned is so obvious. There is no way out of this way to be. To be conscious is to realise that one is a victim and once apprehended then it is possible to take some other cautions worthy of keeping the self unruffled.
However, it is easy to fall prey to a way of life even where one does not want to be a part of but somehow is forced into adopting where one is coerced at leading an existence based on another’s whims. Or this seems to be what is at stake where one is entangled in the realm of the material where all that one does is to be a victim of the superficial where one is robbed of being and coerced into subjugation whether one likes it or not. It is a sense of being betrayed based on some early previous actions where you just, a number to be tossed about. Verily, it is that indeed which is materialism’s par excellence where one may not be and be upped against a way of life fit to be a puppet awaiting to be brutalised in some ways or other. Or verily the idea of tweaking here and there and hope for the best. Or life is so organised that there is a need to do so so that that way of living carries on. A question of just being in the mode of a fragmented way where what matters is indeed is trying to derive benefits or be beneficiaries of aspects of life where one need not put that much in. … as long as the subject gets something in return. It is always about getting some add on as a motivating factor. A question of what is in it for me ? If nothing, to be sure there is no need to carry on. That is crude materialism based on a barter where one may show commitment if there is some reward sometime later. Or it is a conditional way of being engaged in seeking and searching for that which is always elusive in that one never is certain what to do or not to do as all is frivolous.
Making sense of life is finding out how to be in that other realm which causes little or no distress to anyone….. where no other is dehumanised and or made into an object of abuse based on one’s own frailty. To be authentic is precisely to move from that contaminated mode of being onto a more non reactive way to be. It is about being in action non conditionally and seeking a mode of being which moves parallel but in albeit different direction, This is transcendence or which has little or nothing to do with the material aspects. In some ways, it is possible to be engaged yet it is all a question of the mind not being the subject of mode of derogation. A question of seeing things as they are rather than be submerged within it just for the sake of it where one is entangled in saliencies which posit negativism. The point is to move away completely away from the realm of the material. Or let’s say it is not about materialism of everything but rather that of seeking a different realm of being within matter. May this be a viable option? Or are we simply a victim of the fragment?
