The Art of Deception: Understanding Manipulation and Gaslighting
One of the most fundamental aspects of human interaction is trust. We rely on the people in our lives to be honest with us and act according to their words. When someone says one thing but does another, it can be incredibly confusing and even damaging. Unfortunately, this type of behaviour is all too common. People often say one thing and do another, and when they are confronted about it, they refuse to take responsibility for their actions. This is called manipulation, and when it is combined with an unwillingness to be held accountable, it becomes gaslighting.

Ego – The Delusional Thinker
Do you know that we live in a world of delusions? It is because we live in a world of words. However, there is a world without words that exists right before us in the present, what we call reality, which is eternal and timeless. The only thing that separates us from it is our perception. When we meditate, what is our purpose? Are we trying to understand how we relate to this timeless dimension and be free of the time dimension we know? Or are we trying to escape from it? It is not meditation if you are trying to escape but just another way of using self-hypnosis.
