Any organization is a system. And any system is inherently destructive for individual person and constructive for its own existence.

How to understand that you are in the system? This article will present 10 signs of the system, by which you can clearly determine that you are in the system.

Schools and universities, companies and corporations, army and state institutions- all these are types of destructive systems.

A person, being and living in any system, cannot achieve his true true values. He cannot feel himself the way he really is.

The system pursues completely different goals, in no way connected with the happiness of an individual.

Any system makes a person dissatisfied with himself and his life.

The apparent well-being of the system is not.

How to determine that you are in the system?

10 signs you're in the system

Sign #1. Primary Barriers

To get into any of the systems, you need to overcome many barriers and make some efforts. This is the first warning sign of the system by which you will be able to distinguish it.

To enter the system you need to follow certain rules.

For example:

• To get a job at an enterprise, you need to provide certain documents, pass interviews, approvals, pass standards, pass medical examinations, fill out applications, and so on.
• To get into the university, you need to pass exams in certain subjects, submit documents, wait for a decision and comply with other formalities.
• Family - apply, wait in line, register at the registry office.

Sign #2. Hard rules

The system always has its own strict rules.

These rules seem absurd at times, but they are in every system to keep their subordinates in tight limits, not giving them the opportunity to get out.

The more difficult it is to get into the system, and the more stages you need to go through, the more ruthless this system will be in the future towards people, the less it will give to a person and the more it will take.

Has it ever happened that you go, for example, to work, do not overwork, but by the evening you feel completely exhausted?

It seems to the people themselves that the more difficult it is to get into the system, the more desirable it appears in their eyes.

The more internal rules, regulations within the system, the more mercilessly it will treat you, the more juice and energy it will suck out of you.

Most of the system's rules and regulations are useless, but they are necessary to keep adherents at bay and sap the energy out of them.

Sign #3. Distribution of roles

Every system has a strict role hierarchy. Moreover, this hierarchy is invented by the system itself. you borrow certain place in this fictitious hierarchy, losing its original role - a person, a personality.

You are assigned certain role: position, status, rank, qualification and so on. She always has a clear name. But it is artificial, invented.

For example, now you:

• Schoolboy
• Student
• Engineer
• Administrator
• Head of Department
• Director
• Driver
• Husband
• Organizer

Rigid hierarchy of roles is typical for any system. The natural equality of people in the system is denied.

You are not only assigned a role, but yours is also taken away. true face person, person.

Over time, you begin to identify with a certain artificial role. You begin to act according to the scenario of this role, ignoring human motives.

You lose your individuality. In addition, you begin to compare yourself to other members of the hierarchy, feeling superior in some cases and worthless in others.

There is never equality in the system, there is no integrity. There is always a division, someone is higher, someone is lower. And it becomes natural for you. That is, a person either despises those who are lower, or grovels before those who are higher. Even those who are at the same level, secretly hates, wanting to overtake them in the hierarchy.

If you suddenly want to become yourself within the system, this will be perceived by the system as hostile. desire for freedom, informal communication- everything is alien to the system, and it will show you that this does not belong here.

You are in the game.

Sign number 4. Holding on to fear

Any system controls a person with the help of fear.

Over time, while in the system, you start to be afraid to death to get out of it. Despite the fact that before you simply did not belong to this system, and this did not bother you at all. Now you can no longer imagine yourself outside the system.

Why is a person committed to the system? Neither motivation nor feeling a better life, namely fear is the main weapon of the system for managing its adherents.

You begin to think that the system is your everything, and it determines your life and generally determines who you are.

This is because you have come to identify with the artificial role you have been assigned. And it seems to you that by giving up the role, you will lose yourself and, in general, risk your whole life. There is nothing further from the truth.

False fear is the only reason the system is holding you back. It is only because you believe in your fear that you continue to be in the system.

• Fear of losing your job and being left without money
• Fear of being expelled from the university
• Fear of divorce and being single

You always have terrible pictures in your mind of what could happen to you if you had the audacity to take a step "to the left."

You console yourself with the fact that you still have many years of life, and now, as it were, you are not living, but simply “preparing” for a better life.

Sign number 5. Feeling wrong

Every minute when you are inside the system, you feel as if you are in a different space and do not feel yourself. Your inner voice is muted, you are affected by the system.

But when you log out, for example, when you come home in the evening, you get the feeling that you have been deceived, but you do not understand what this is connected with. If you listen to yourself, you understand in your soul that the system only robs you and brings you nothing but suffering. But you ignore the true call of the soul.

You are in the game.

Sign #6. You give but don't receive.

All your talents and abilities are not needed by the system. You as a person are not needed by the system.

Fear also forces you to enter the system: fear of being left without education, fear of being left without money, and so on.

You live in the system, but you do not get the results that the system promised you.

• You seem to be getting wages, but you don’t see the money, or you don’t need it, or you quickly lower your salary on unnecessary purchases.
• you finish educational institution, having studied there for 3-5 years, but as a result, no one needs your education and you are left without real knowledge.
• You create a marriage, but you have more fights than love, and you start hating each other.

Any system is artificial and formal, therefore it cannot advance you on the path to personal happiness.

Any system promises you a reward, but you don't get it.

• You are promised demand in the labor market - but you remain unnecessary to anyone,
• You are promised self-realization at work - but you feel only suffering,
• They promise you love in marriage, but you get hate.

Of course the system gives you necessary minimum to keep exploiting you. It gives just enough so that you can continue to live, to be in the system. But in return you give your time, your energy, your life.

Sign number 7. False Values

Any system is covered false values. This is also called the mission of the company. Any system is anti-human, but it creates the appearance that it exists for people.

If it is very important for you to feel good, to feel your own, significance, satisfaction, then you will not find this in the system. You will experience nothing but fear and anxiety.

Any mission of the company, common goals', and all ' good words"are a well-veiled cover to exploit you, to use your resource to the maximum.

The only purpose of any system is to exist for its own sake.

Sign No. 8. cyclicality

When you get into the system, you get into a cycle. These are daily activities. Cyclic. Day after day, year after year.

This leads to the fact that you may not notice how 5 or even 10 years have passed in a constant cycle.

You seem to fall asleep and start moving in a circle.

In any system, you live in "waiting for something" - until you get rich, until you get a position, until they appreciate it, until you get a diploma - but even if you achieve the desired goal, you do not become satisfied and again go into waiting mode, striving for a new one. invented goal.

Any system is a squeeze of living resources out of you.

The system has its own goals, but it never had the goal of making you happy, successful and rich, although it hides behind good goals in order to successfully exploit you.

Sign #9 Blindness of options

Over time, you stop seeing other areas of application of yourself and your abilities, except for the system itself. It starts to seem to you that there are no more good places and where you are is the only right place. It seems to you that no one else will accept you, and only your system needs you. You are ruled by a great fear of the unknown that keeps you in the system.

Sign #10 Judgment of others

When you try to talk about your plans to get out of the system, you meet with the opposition of most people who are also in the systems.

They say, “How can you think? How will you live?”, “Better wait, think”, “Not worth it. Don't do stupid things." You meet the "righteous" anger of relatives and friends who echo as one that you should not leave the system.

They try to “save” you without realizing it, driving you into great suffering and depriving you of the chance to live truly. It can be your friends, relatives, parents, relatives, wives, husbands.

But you know in your heart that it's wrong, that it's not your place. You clearly feel that you are giving much more than you are receiving. But you don't know what to do. You don't see a way out.

How to log out?

You need to plan your exit from the system with the least loss.

Plan and figure out how to do it yourself. Make a plan according to the situation.

If you need to save money for the near future, then save money.

Create a platform and insure yourself at least for the next six months or a year financially.

You need to rethink your values. Because if you keep in the first place such values ​​as money, success, recognition of society, then you will become a slave to almost any system. You will be very easy to manage when the main thing in life for you is money and everything connected with it.

you used to be good

The system employs people who are accustomed to being " good". You want to be good, that's how you've been taught since childhood. Do this, don't do that. The system clearly outlines what you will be approved for and what you will be punished for. You work hard, you fulfill your duties - you are good. If you don't do what you don't want to do, if you ignore orders, you're bad. Your maniacal desire to be good plays against you and is successfully exploited by the system itself. How are you big child you go into the system just to avoid being judged. That's how you were raised - the perfect worker, the perfect student, the perfect family man. The system has become your big parent for you, which will tell you what to do and how to do it. If you dare to contradict, you will receive condemnation, but if you lay down your life day by day on the altar of the system, you may receive the condescending approval of the system.

1. Quit drinking, smoking, eating meat. Not eaten in fast food outlets. In general, there is nothing to eat anywhere, it is desirable to feed yourself with live food, limit carbohydrates, exclude sugar. Do not chew gum. It is advisable to switch to tooth powder: fluoride compounds in toothpastes inhibit the pineal gland.

3. Start talking to the carcass. The body, this divine vessel, has its own voice and its own consciousness, and always says what it needs and what it doesn't need. And you have to learn to respect him. The need for low-vibration food indicates distortions in cell structure. Establish contact with the elements of the body. Make friends with them and give them tasks to clean, restore and transform the true organism. Talk to water while washing. Ask her to purify the lower bodies, thank her for it. Do not walk around with loose hair. Hair is antennas, they collect other people's thoughts and unnecessary information. Let your hair down only when communicating with the Highest, in meditation.

4. Every day (you can do gymnastics in the evening), any complex of calm, smooth energy exercises to meditative music. Gymnastics sometimes turns into deep meditation(but this is only later, when the vibrations are high, it all happens by itself).

5. Daily walk 2-3 hours in the air, preferably away from the matrix. Communication with nature. stop visiting shopping centers, stadiums, demonstrations, smoky pubs and glamorous establishments. Avoid unnecessary communication.

6. Go through your entire wardrobe. Leave comfortable, practical, not pretentious natural things in a free cut. Well, T-shirts with jeans, of course. Understand that there are more things than you can bear. Distribute excess. Wear less jewelry. Chains, chains, bracelets, rings, all this binds energies, blocks free current.

7. Throw out the microwave, never watch TV (throw out). Turn off unnecessary appliances in the house from the network. Remove all the intricacies of wires and not “stand under the arrow”) Do not chat on the mobile (almost throw it away), turn it off during sleep, meditation and when you are not: for example, you are in another dimension or create. Computer - well, it's hard to throw it away, I understand. But limit all nonsense, purchases from Internet sites and women's forums, games for boys. visit perfect order in the room, in the house, in the garden. Clean all the corners, throw out everything unnecessary, ruthlessly. Say goodbye to all the broken, broken, glued, not working, rubbish lying on the mezzanine. Down with rubbish. What's outside is inside. Repair whatever is needed. Faucets must not leak. Love everything that surrounds you.

8. Forgive everyone and ask everyone for forgiveness. All those who obsessively appear in your head, like an uninvited guest, and start with you internal dialogue even though you didn't invite him.

9. Communication with animals, plants and small children is very shown.

10. Then, after a couple of months, you realize that due to the painstaking excavation of distortions, costs have decreased. So, you can try to work less.

11. Stop worrying about your age. Move your body to the point in your sphere where you were most comfortable in terms of appearance. And let your body know about it.

12. Stop worrying about anything at all. Don't rush anywhere. You are in eternity. Do not ignore what seems trifling.

13. Get creative. Write, draw, glue planes, sing, dance, collect nothing. Life is a verb. Best activity- drawing in the sand

14. Smile. Everyone and everywhere

What is life like in the city? Not life, but captivity!

Crowd, cops, cars, garbage piles,

Stink, racket, stress, whores, mmm,

The boss is a bastard, work is a seam, friends are Judas.

Tap water - blue vitriol,

Neighbors are creatures in the fifth generation.

Neurosis, arthrosis, thrombosis, leukemia, diarrhea -

Diseases of the urban population!

(Timur Shaov. "Village")

Why read this chapter?

Understand why people from capitals go to villages;

Find out how it makes them freer;

Appreciate the irony of the very fact that ardent individualists moved to the countryside.

My heroes, the Khalibuts from the first chapter, tired of life in the metropolis, chose between the Russian and Thai villages. They chose the latter - and do not regret it. And there are people who chose the first - and are also satisfied. They sometimes call themselves downshifters, sometimes - to get away from associations with beaches and the sea - ushers. Or even like this: aliens from consumerism - this is the “term” proposed by the former Moscow manager Mustafa Ibrahim, who moved to Chelyabinsk region.

Rat race in a squirrel wheel

A certified psychologist from Volgograd, Mustafa Ibrahim (this, as you probably already guessed, is not his real name, but an online pseudonym) moved to Moscow and started consulting. A few years later he became the head of the training department of a large American company, bought an apartment in the capital and began to lead a lifestyle corresponding to his status: he bought prestigious outfits, went on vacation abroad, hired a nanny-nurse for his poodle. It was the death of a long-ill beloved dog - almost a family member - that became one of the reasons for change: a vacuum formed, questions began to appear ... And then answers:

“The understanding came that this system of making money for me turned into an end in itself ... into a squirrel wheel and a rat race. Let me explain. If you want to get a well-paid job, you have to look and dress a certain way… You have to wear high-status clothes, go to high-status places, and so on. All this requires money. Roughly speaking, if your salary was raised from ten thousand at your previous job to thirty thousand at your new one, this does not mean that the difference of twenty can be put aside in a money-box ... If the next week after the promotion you continue to come to work in an old suit, your boss will say: “You are the face of the firm. We pay you enough, please, dress appropriately…” At some point, you come to the conclusion that you earn money in order to earn money… By the end of my life in Moscow, there was only enough time for work. Weekends were spent in order to get enough sleep, gain strength - and again rush into battle. And it turned out for me too decisive factor. I decided to end this. I realized that this is not mine. This is at odds with my goals."

This is how Mustafa talked about his motives, for example, in a TV show. But if you collect information from different media, it turns out that it's not just about the poodle or money. The head of the department had enough reasons to “take and change everything”: starting from a conflict with the boss and ending with a passion for Sufism and a desire to write books in the bosom of nature. Mustafa said - Mustafa did: he sold an apartment in Moscow and went to the Chelyabinsk region, to a village not far from Arkaim (the places of ancient settlements where Mustafa once came as part of expeditions and noticed even then).

If at first the former manager generously shared his thoughts and discoveries of new worlds with reporters and talk show hosts, then - having obviously met with irony and misunderstanding - he limited interaction with the media and "systemic journalists" and concentrated on potential and real ushers. He now talks a lot with them and willingly talks on the Internet, rejoicing when "their regiment" arrives.

In one of the interviews, Mustafa spoke about the “pain”: “We feel rejection from others. The message is this: top managers are mad with fat, these are glamorous characters who are tired of something, and they go under a palm tree to sunbathe and do nothing ... ”By the way, Mustafa fails to do nothing. Having bought and equipped a village house, he realized that the dwelling was too big for him, and ... opened a hotel there. In it, at first, he cooked and cleaned himself, not forgetting to write parables and enjoy nature and freedom from the office framework.

Agrotourism on the topic of the day

A psychologist with an entrepreneurial streak organized the Lapti-tour artel, which operates in the niche of agro-tourism, which is fashionable in the West, but is still completely misunderstood in Russia. This is when tourists go to rest not on the beach, but in the village. And they still work there.

WWOOF (from English. World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms or Willing Workers on Organic Farms) - special programs agritourism, in which tourism is combined with work for a farmer. Sometimes such a "tourist-laborer" pays something to the host (if the work during the "tour" is purely symbolic), but more often he lives and works for free. This program operates all over the world: as a rule, a work visa for unpaid short-term work is not required, a standard tourist set of documents and an agreement with a farmer from the area in which you want to prove yourself are enough.

According to Mustafa, at first, those around him were surprised by his tour package, which includes daily free work, but now this proposal does not shock anyone. However, PR campaigns to stimulate love for outdoor work do not prevent Mustafa from either jokingly or seriously quoting Nietzsche's words: "Everyone who cannot devote two-thirds of the day to himself should be recognized as a slave."

Where did the departed go?

Former manager appreciates comfort. He repaired and landscaped an eight-room house, installed Internet and satellite TV there. A traditional toilet in the yard and other attributes that you probably remember rural life Mustafa refers to stereotypes. Whether for this, or for some other reason, in the village they do not consider him “normal”. “Now I have become a real local lunatic. AT literally. Even now I see how, when meeting with me, the village grannies stretch their hand to their foreheads ... to cross themselves. And it’s true: what hasn’t been said about him, and it’s easy to believe - there are two tails on the head, one on the back of the head, the other on the chin, he ties up the tresses and his beard, God forgive me! Mustafa Ibrahim writes in his blog at www.derevnyaonline.ru.

The attitude of the locals is understandable. Another thing is surprising: an individualist, wanting freedom from the framework, goes to the Russian village, known for conservatism and collectivism in the most diverse - including negative - senses of these words.

Even the most strong spirit corporations can only dream of such an amazing unity of thoughts and feelings. Experts try to explain this phenomenon by the fact that peasants in Hard time used to rely only on people who are nearby. No matter how you interpret this phenomenon, a society of this type will most likely be able to accept a person who refuses to adhere to the rules only as a hero, an outcast or a madman.

By the way, there are chances to get a special status (and the opportunity not to perform socially desirable duties) in office life. For example, numerous programmers and even some high-ranking IT professionals have won the unspoken right to wear the clothes they like and wash as often as they like.

It is also not surprising that the new Russian peasants on Internet resources agitate those who remained in the city to move, offer them houses for sale in the neighborhood and help in settling in a new place. After all, an assailant who moved to forgotten by the world village, in some ways more difficult than a downshifter in India or Thailand. Firstly, abroad there is no, but there is a Russian community of those who have slowed down. Secondly, the attitude towards visitors from Russia is benevolent - as to tourists spending money, and not as to strangers from Moscow buying up the land of their fathers.

Thirdly, the newly minted residents of the beaches usually have no illusions that one day they will wake up as Indians or Thais - their own people.

The same Viktor Sergienko (better known on the net as Koshasty, who at one time promised a global crisis and moved to the village on full self-sufficiency on this occasion) is interested not only in moving away from the city, but also in “not being separated from the surrounding peasants”. Both he calls the main measures of "passive protection".

Settling in the village will be easier for those who, living on the land, continue to work in the city, or for those who take the positions of teachers, journalists of the regional newspaper, employees of the local administration that are understandable to the villagers.

The Arithmetic of Freedom. Exact numbers no one will call.

Koshasty, in extreme cases, offers to dig dugouts in the forest and live there. Of course, it is not necessary to dig out housing with your own hands. A more traditional house in the village can be bought, and for almost any price.

No matter how you decide on housing, you will have to spend money on shovels, seeds, the Internet and other essentials. The same Koshasty, for example, includes half a ton of salt (he has just that much), a box of matches and a box of soap. But if you don't wait global crisis and do not set as your goal complete autonomy from city life, you can focus not on his method (he posted clear instructions on the net, I will not retell), but on your ideas about the future and needs in the present.

Who is this script for?

For those who want to retire early. Or leave on time, but have an idea of ​​what to do next. It is much more pleasant to grow flowers in the village than to perform the not-so-easy functions of a metrobaby in the city.

Artists, poets and other creative people.

Etudes in the open air, rural muses, the spicy aroma of local sakura and manure ... Eh!

Incorrigible romantics, ready not only to dream, but also to work. They will have the hardest time.

As it happens. Chicherina works in the village

A little over a year ago, singer Yulia Chicherina and her family moved to a village near Moscow. However, she did not give up her career. Moreover, I am sure that it is more pleasant to create in the countryside. In the house of her dreams, the singer has equipped a gym and even a studio, where she now writes songs. She told the author of this book about the reasons for the move in a short interview:

"For all my hectic life I changed many apartments and, of course, lived in Moscow. But after two years in the city, I firmly decided to move to a place where there is no crazy bustle of the metropolis and polluted air. In the open, one thinks and dreams differently. Only here you can switch off and feel that you really live, see the stars and look at the sky above your head.

It is extremely difficult for a creative person to work when everything around is ringing, noisy and distracting. No wonder so many poets or musicians prefer to write at night - precisely then everything is quiet. And the advantage of the village is that there is no need to wait for the night - it is always quiet here. That is why, when the question arose about the construction of housing, we decided to build not just a house, but a studio house where you can live and create.”

Yulia spends most of her time in the village, several times a month she goes on tour in Russia and filming in Moscow. Her home is unusual shape with huge triangular windows to the floor - has become a local landmark. Grandmothers take their grandchildren to him on excursions - to look at the exotic.

Now Julia does not complain about anything, she only boasts: she says that her health has become better in nature, her mood cannot be more beautiful, and most importantly, she breathes more freely and works more productively.

The rural idyll is sometimes disturbed by the weather: for example, during construction, equipment could not pass because of the rains, but even this did not stop the house from being created in a little over a month. The pastoral picture, invented and brought to life by herself, Yulia describes with pleasure:

“There was an attempt to grow a garden, but it was not so easy. All this needs to be looked after, groomed, cherished, so that something really edible grows. We grew some vegetables, but they turned out to have a very specific taste. I prefer to deal with flowers, trees.

I feel so comfortable here that I wouldn’t leave here if it wasn’t for my favorite job O. I don’t like hanging out at all, it’s a waste of time. And here everything is created for life and creativity. In addition to creativity, we are fond of construction, now we have almost completed the bathhouse. We study all technical innovations - for example, environmentally friendly devices for the home, solar panels. We are interested in everything that does not harm nature and the environment.”

Instead of output

To the village, to the wilderness, to Saratov

According to individual newspaper publications, the idea of ​​moving to ecologically clean villages took possession of the minds of bored residents of the metropolis five years ago. Fresh legend, but hard to believe. First, the simplification of Leo Tolstoy has not yet been canceled. Secondly, the Roman emperor Diocletian at one time went to cultivate a garden, and answered all calls to return to power: “If you saw what kind of cabbage I grew, you would not pester me with your senseless proposals.” But even if you do not go far into history, then I, in a sense, am a hereditary “outsider”. My parents once left a large industrial city in northern Russia, where they once went to work, for a home on “their own land” in southern Siberia. Yes, yes, it was me, either in horror, or in admiration, froze in front of thirty acres, on which they had to first bury and then dig up potatoes. This was brought to me by neighbors of rabbits that escaped from my innovative cages (experimental animal husbandry was my weakness) ... But let's return from my rabbits to our sheep.

Leaving the village is far from unambiguous. On the one hand, even the preacher of rural life, Mustafa, says: “To make money in Russia, you need to live in Moscow.” About roads, the Internet and the opportunity to get a good education in the village we will not remind. For those who have forgotten about these pastoral charms, the heroes of this book in previous chapters must have reminded them of them when they argued for their move to the beach.

On the other hand, it is difficult to disagree with the ethologist, laureate Nobel Prize Konrad Lorenz, who, in his book The Eight Deadly Sins of Civilized Mankind, castigates overcrowding, desolation living space(what we usually call bad environment), racing with yourself ...

In 1974, when the word “downshifting” had not yet been coined, the scientist talked about the exhausting rush, driven by the fear of losing in artificially created competition, about the lack of time for reflection, about the disappeared joy of being, about the fact that money is no longer perceived as a means and begin to see each other as a goal ... "All of us living in densely populated cultural countries and even more so in big cities, we no longer realize how much we lack ordinary, warm and cordial human love, ”writes Lorenz. Almost word for word, Lorentz was echoed by psychologists at a recent Moscow conference. And they even tried to come up with names for specific "urban neuroses", specifying, however, that the villagers have their own special problems.

Be that as it may, many townspeople are strongly attracted to rural paradise. According to analysts of the Real Estate Market Indicators Center, three percent of native Muscovites annually move to the regions for permanent residence. This figure does not reflect how many people buy houses in the villages and plots of land, so to speak, for the future - while still not resigning from anywhere and not moving anywhere. Some publications about this trend even shine with hope: the ushers, accustomed to civilization, will lead good routes and the Internet to the Russian outback ... For example, actor Pyotr Mamonov “made” a road in the village where he settled.

Notes:

In the narcotic sense of the word.

In this text we are talking about the Russian village, but if you take a look at the book "The Good Life" by Helen and Scott Nearing (a married couple who moved from New York to the countryside during the Great Depression), you will see that these phenomena are not only characteristic of Russian hinterland. “We came to Vermont as complete strangers. The indigenous people of these places often use the word "foreigners" ("strangers") to refer to new arrivals. They are treated with suspicion, they are not in a hurry to include in the circle of acquaintances. Any community requires compliance with its laws and customs. Locals want to see among their neighbors those who were born and raised nearby. In small remote communities, this criterion is placed above any other,” the authors write.

Back in 2002, for example, the Expert magazine wrote about this (“What will neighbor Vasily think?”). For ten years, the situation may have changed a little, but cardinal transformations of consciousness are unlikely to have occurred.

More and more more people they are looking for a way out of the System, and most importantly, they understand that it really exists, and that this is not an invention of various philosophers, thinkers and conspiracy theorists. She exists and she holds people with her paws, preventing them from breathing freely. She sustains their existence, feeds and waters them, satisfies all human needs, and in return takes away only one thing - freedom. It would seem, well, what's wrong with that, you think. Yes, let her take it for herself, but how many interesting and extremely attractive things she gives in return! Life without this system seems unbearable, boring and gray. gives an abundance of colors, sounds, tastes - anything, any whim, and in return asks not so much - freedom. But who needs it, this freedom? So what are you going to do with her?

More and more people consider "Fuck The System" as their slogan, trying by all means to get rid of the system, to destroy it in the bud. People find different ways to get out of the system, some of them turn out to be false, they lead a person to a dead end. But no matter what anyone says, all paths fall into two categories: Idealism and. And only one category has the right vector - the idealistic category.

Let's consider the materialistic path. A person with a materialistic mindset sees before him the primacy of matter over spirit, i.e. matter creates this spirit, consciousness, mind. Matter is above everything.

What is the position of a materialist? The materialist tries to find personal gain in everything. Whatever it is, whatever he touches, any action must be carried out only for profit, otherwise it is not worth doing this action. Work - for the sake of money, career. Acquaintance - for the sake of useful links, acquiring some experience, knowledge, skills, satisfying lust, idleness. Call a person to spend time with him, invite him for a walk, etc. Benefit - in the satisfaction of idleness, lust. And if a person did not have to occupy himself with something and did not want to have a good time, sit in a bar, go to a club, then the person would not call at all. It took something from a person - called, asked / asked. Do not need anything - then it is not interesting.

There is no action without personal gain. Any action a materialist performs for personal gain, no matter what he does. He analyzes whether it is beneficial for him, whether he will have some income from this action, some profit. "Why do something if it will not bring any income and any benefit?" - thinks the materialist. And it is wrong to understand that it can only be a financial benefit - any benefit received for a personal purpose. it materialistic approach. But I want to note that there are no strictly materialists and idealists, every person has materialistic ideas and idealistic ones, it’s about which of these approaches dominates in a person and what is more in him, what outweighs.

How does a materialist try to get out of the System? The materialistic path presupposes a false exit from the System, it is a surrogate for the path. A person simply closes his eyes to the System and imagines that he is outside of it. He believes that he managed to leave her, but this is just self-deception, an illusion. A person is looking for a way out of the system in a materialistic way, i.e. through the same matter, which is above all. And as a result, he becomes dependent on this matter, i.e. it does not exit the System, but merely replaces one dependency with another.

Let us analyze examples of materialistic exit from the System. For example, a drug addict gets out of the system with the help of drugs, with the help of the illusory world that they create and the addiction that they cause. The alcoholic behaves in exactly the same way. When he is with his desired object - an alcoholic drink, then he is happy and does not need anything else. He received his coveted matter. Man dissatisfied environment, tries to get away from her, but in the end just switches consciousness. Or a person has now decided to get rid of drug addiction, how does he get rid of it? Replaces one dependency with another. For example, replacing heroin with methadone. Replacing cigarettes with nicotine patches or chewing gum.

First example - extreme sport. A person engages in it for the sake of quenching the thirst for adventure, idleness, which gives him joy, for the sake of releasing various hormones in his body that cause various processes. This is again a materialistic way to get away from the outside world, i.e. just close from it, hide, but still stay in it, in the System and be a part of it. Extreme sport causes addiction. This dependence is due to the production of hormones (for example, dopamine), which are addictive, change consciousness, and bring joy to a person.

Second example is a computer, the Internet, computer and gambling. They also stimulate the production of various hormones that create a feeling of euphoria, danger, fear in a person. A person, dissolving in the game, closes himself from the world, still being in it. He accepts an illusory, surrogate world and becomes part of it, enters virtual reality. Just deceiving himself.

Third example - it's travel, craving for travel. A person travels to different resorts, countries in order to again experience joy, to see something new, beautiful, colorful and magnificent. But again, this is not a way out of the system, but an attempt to escape from it, or, to be more precise, just hide, put your head under the pillow. A person believes that being in another place, he will be free from the system. Yes, perhaps at some point in time he will feel a real liberation from it, but soon it will end, because he will need to return to everyday life, to his usual work, his usual way of life. After all, the same trips need money, as well as drugs, alcohol, the Internet, electricity and Sports Equipment. This is not a way out of the System, it is simply a replacement of some drugs for others or a replacement for ways to stimulate their production.

materialistic an attempt to leave the System only leads to a dead end, it does not lead out of it, but only gives a false appearance, the illusion of an exit. As long as a person is a materialist, he will not be able to get out of the System. Before leaving it, you need to decide who you are: a materialist or an idealist. You also need to decide whether you really want to get out of it or whether everything in it suits you. Whether you need it or not. A materialist, as a rule, is satisfied with the System, if not everything, then a lot, but what he does not like, he replaces with a surrogate. To leave the System, you need to be ready to make sacrifices, leave your old dependencies and false needs. And ask yourself: do I need it?

And if not, why don't I need it? Why do I not need, but I need its substitutes, surrogates? Ask yourself: Do I need this freedom and do I want to get out of the System? Does an alcoholic need to get rid of alcoholism? No, he does not need it, because he is pleased with himself and happy. He receives a desired object and is satiated with it, why should he lose this happiness and get rid of it? He is happy, but he is an alcoholic! He is dependent, he is not free! Are the fish in the aquarium free or not, do they want to be free from the aquarium and get into the sea/ocean? They are fed, looked after, why do they need freedom? Why freedom for a pet? The system domesticates man, making him a herd animal. Once upon a time, all animals were wild, free, but over time, one System domesticated them, just as the other domesticated people, made them dependent on itself.

What does it represent idealistic way logout? Idealism puts first ideal concepts, such as spirit, faith, will, consciousness, mind, etc. Idealism does not involve the commission of any action for personal gain, because its essence is the commission of actions, sacrificing oneself. Accomplishments for the sake of an idea, for the sake of creations, discoveries, developments. Achievements only because a person’s heart tells him, regardless of whether it is beneficial for him or not, whether a person gains something from this or, on the contrary, loses it. The idealist is guided by his feelings, his ideas, spiritual and moral concepts, principles, while the materialist is guided only by self-interest. And this benefit drives him to a standstill.

The idealistic path implies the rejection of the System. Rejection of all its manifestations, norms and parameters. Rejection of all those addictions that she imposed on a person over the years.

Leaving the system is not easy. It is difficult to just take and give up everything that she offers, and become independent and independent from her, become a free person and stop being one of the representatives of a giant herd, a giant incubator. Idealism moves a person, directing to right direction. It is impossible to abandon the materialistic System with the help of materialism, because materialism is a part of the System, it consists of it, and any attempts to leave it under the auspices of materialism will force a person to wander only within this System, without leaving its borders. This is running in a circle (or in a stall, if you like).

An example of a successful exit from the System is. Both religious, with the practices of asceticism, and worldly. Every hermit is an idealist, since it is hardly possible to go into hermitage with a materialistic conception. In order for a person to decide on such a feat as a hermit, he needs to act, guided not by personal gain, but by his feelings, urges, ideas, principles, his will and desire for freedom. FROM material point From this point of view, this event can hardly be called profitable, because in material terms, a person only loses, and does not find. It's the same as if a domestic dog suddenly left his kennel, ran into the forest and began to get his own food, forgetting about his bowl, in which every day at the same time would appear tasty food. I would forget about my warm couch and gentle hands of the owner.

Leaving one's usual place of residence in itself is not a way out of the System, because one can run away to distant lands, and still be part of the System. You can live in the wilderness, but your heart is in the System, accept its principles and norms. However, without this care, it is hardly possible to get rid of it. I don't see others alternative options exit from it. The system will devour a person, absorb him with giblets and leave no alternatives. Any resistance will look helpless. It's like turning a turtle upside down and watching how it will resist, trying to return to its previous position.

In order to leave the System, a person must destroy all materialistic stereotypes in himself. He must stop being a materialist, think and act like a materialist. He needs to put the ideal in the first place, and make the material only a consequence of the root cause. An idealistic person will strive to rid himself of the System, because its norms and positions are not acceptable to him, and he understands this. He will resist universal materialism, being in the most severe opposition. Attempts to turn others around can cost that person dearly, and in the end, he may not achieve his goal by remaining in the System.

P.S. It doesn't matter what a person believes or doesn't believe. Religious views neither have any significance, because both materialists are believing people and unbelieving people are idealists. The ideal does not end with the mere concepts of faith and spirituality. The desire for will, for freedom, finally, is inherent in all people, and everyone can find these feelings in themselves. It is a great mistake to regard all atheists as materialists and all idealists as believers. This delusion most likely came with people from the so-called "Soviet hardening". Normal in those days Soviet citizen should have been an atheist and a materialist. Those. one could not exist without the other. This is not a stone in the garden of "Soviet hardening", since it brought up moral people for the most part. By this I want to point out that such concepts can be interpreted in different ways, finding different shades and nuances in them.

This article describes the possibility and ways out of the financial-oligarchic system, but does not set any ethical objectives. Each person chooses the relevance of this topic for himself. For some, logging out is life necessary action, for someone it is not important at all and does not make any sense. Here I have only described possible ways output, i.e. answered the question "How?", but did not answer the question "Why?", because I can only answer it for myself, but not for someone else. Everyone decides for himself and answers the question: why should he leave the system. For someone, being in the system does not cause much trouble and misfortune, for someone it delivers and he tries to get out, i.e. go into seclusion. Someone does not go to these extremes and is content, for example, only with limiting their excessive material consumption, quitting alcohol, smoking, etc. - and that's enough for him. Someone goes on long journeys, discovering the world for himself - he is happy and enough for him - that's his will.

There can be no specific ethical component in this issue. Everything is individual. For some, the system is good, for others it is bad. I'm not trying to label this concept as something negative to use for all people. It's like arguing about tastes...

This is a terrible concept, which in different wording say all the awakened ones, is not at all what our fearful mind takes it for. Therefore, we are constantly trying to postpone this terrible far-fetched moment of SOME GREAT ASOCIAL ACTION, with which we associate the concept of "leaving society." With which we directly connect our awakening. We put it off so much that we forget about the goal, so much so that we destroy the very hope of somehow changing our life. Horror before the IMAGINARY monumental and decisive action obscures to us all the simplicity of the true path, confuses all concepts. We end up being willing to do anything as "preparation to get on the path" so long as we don't live our lives.

But they only talk about being responsible for your life. The notorious way out of society is the rejection of crutches that the society obligingly lends you, saving its adherents from being unable to take responsibility for their lives and decisions. It offers you a ready-to-death life with a set of ready-made solutions. Born, studied, married, cured, brought up, rested, went through entertainment, retired - that's it, the end. The way out of society is, in fact, a departure from the well-trodden mechanistic paths along which you used to roll. Just? Just! And incredibly difficult. You will see it, just start trying, start doing right now.

The easiest way to start moving towards yourself without pathos and hasty sacrifices of work, friendship, hobbies and comfortable life- choose for yourself any regimen compatible with your lifestyle and strictly follow it. Your life right now is a limited set of mechanistic programs. Try to take it into your own hands, place semaphores on the path of the locomotive carrying you to the grave. If you have become close to a guru, then you have probably received practices or instructions (which, by the way, you have high hopes for) - yoga, meditation, gibberish, prayer, highlighting an observer or astral body. If not, you will definitely have your daily tasks. Be diligent. Write down 3-4 simple things. Give rigid boundaries to your usual activities: the same day-to-day rise time, the time of your practice, the time of creativity, the time of eating, the time of going to bed.

Before you start, please note that you CHOSEN them YOURSELF, YOU made the decision to follow this regimen. And now try to implement your plan for YOURSELF. Already on the second or third day it will become obvious that you do not own your life, feel how deeply you are bogged down in the "society", how you are weak-willed and not free in elementary solutions. Every time there are reasons, excuses, innocent events, such as the arrival of your beloved grandmother, an important party, "a lot of work." You will see that your whole seemingly free and hitherto conscious life is crushing you with a heavy bag, just to protect you from such a reckless decision as an attempt to answer for yourself.

Don't give up, don't give up, keep doing and watching. Just monotonously follow your decision - whether it's a radical change in your entire lifestyle or simple daily inclusions in your routine. Fall down and get up again. Do not lose sight of your decision and your goal, and you will see how everything starts to change. No shining knight in shining armor makes a super determined heroic deed. The original work is completely unsuitable for inclusion in the annals of the heroes. Because this is a humiliating fuss in the mud of one's own ignorance, in a swamp of inertia, full of mistakes, weakness, despair and doubts. Until you get totally tired of it and make the final and, most importantly, very simple, quiet and invisible decision. After that it will be possible to compose legends, but you will not care at all.
