Utsob Roy π"My soul, will you ever be good, simple, single, and naked, brighter than the body that encases you?" β Marcus Aurelius (Meditations)
Sensitivity is a war against comfortable nonchalance. It's weighing a situation on its merits rather than our tendency to treat even the greatest atrocities as mere norms of history. It's a door in our ego to step out in the storm that is raging outsideβ continuously.
"Ideas are Bulletproof."
It is comforting to know the ideas I stand for are bulletproof. However, all ideas are. Those who want to thwart my ideas may have equally bulletproof ideas of their own.
The war against ideas should always be waged with words, and with better ideas.
Being the devil's advocate I am, I propose that we should make an active and sincere attempt to die.
