The energy that compels us to get polemical or start defending ourselves when provoked by others is known as “andhkara” or false ego. This false ego leads to attachment, attachment leads to passion, and passion leads to lust, lust to anger and consequently a devastating mental and physical havoc. This ego energy is like a silk worm that builds its cocoon and gets trapped in this embroilment. One method of counter challenging or taming the ego energy is through the practice of forbearance. For instance there were several articles containing polemical, peevish, polemical and prevaricated (truth less) comments about a certain individual who chose to disregard and forgive such forms of railings. For instance “he is pure evil”, racist, “anti-Semitic” and numerous other forms of persuasive yet truth less statements. The so called were very cogent, written with extreme brilliance in language command and mechanics but the only factor that they failed to comply by is the TRUTH. May I inform that the people concerned in the above example is not substantial but the concept derived from this scenario is. This opens channel to a specific branch or should I say the product of the ego energy. This accentuation has several names or forms such as misinterpretation, assumptions, mere speculation, figment of reality, specified under one premise, OPINION.

Opinionated knowledge can be harmful because it is of the subconscious realm of the mind. It is stored away in an effort to set up some security for the conscious and subconscious states of mind, something for them to cling and lean upon-that is, the opinions of others, intellectual assertions based on happenings of the past and also what can be conceived by our ears and eyes. For instance Adolph Hitler is regarded as absolutely malevolent, psychotic killer and several other emblems associated with atrocities but is that the whole truth?? Not really, I am not arguing that he did not commit crime against humanity but that is not the entire truth. He has other traits that the society can find it as a compliant. Point is opinions are only based on what was on the surface during a certain historical era and it forms the primal view of the community. The failure to go in depth and study a certain ideal leaves no room for opposing perspective. Those who choose to offer discerning vantage than that of the masses are frequently brought down causing contravention to several moral and social provisos. Another example is that, if we look at the sun, it looks like a disc and without any analytical insight the sun would be regarded as a disc and that shall form the so-called truth because our ears and eyes-only perceived it. This well formed wall makes it easy for the mind to convince itself anything outside of reason. It spawns a large percent of the worlds so called thinkers. Whenever approached they merely formulate others and culminate it into their own. This makes one believe that by the rearrangement of knowledge the thinking process has been stimulated but the truth for the matter is, it’s not. Example of this given accentuated adage is numerous. For instance in our current academic environment, we are mostly reiterating what has been avowed in the textbook and implicating it through paraphrasing or by cramming it. Better not many speculate and come up to quibble conclusions with the figment of information provided. For instance “he is anti-Semitic because he study’s Adolph Hitler”, “he is a communist because he participated in the trade union convention. This slogan, “better dead then red” (Senator McCarthy) was quite popular in the 1950’s, an era that witnessed the terror and persecution of many alleged communists. A society is material mire built upon “quarrel and hypocrisy”.

The society is deeply embroiled in this societal conundrum and they will persecute and reprimand those individuals who choose to operate out of the masses opinion. The social humanoid infrastructure is so exhaustively detained in these “generalized opinions” that they would deny the identity of those threatening or going against the accepted premise of a particular domain. Look what they did to Theodore Kozinsky; the government decided to “shut him up” and even if Mr. Kozinsky had given the opportunity to speak out, then masses would have misconstrued his credence and would have replicated it as something arcane, ambiguous and prejudicial. This has been the trend and pointless criticism just fuels this “fire”. Mr. Kozinsky was judged in absolute disregard of his actions following the aftermath of the manifesto. He was labeled racist just because he was of the European American descend. For example, while interviewed, one of the individuals stated “he was racist and it was quite obvious just because he was a white guy”. Look at the period of “Red Scare”, following the Bolshevik Revolution. People were subject to tyrannical maltreatment just because they were dressed red. Yet the masses have failed to learn this substantial maxim and constantly get situated on the path of Salem calamity, McCarthy fiasco, eccentric panic of Red Scare and so on. The panacea to this utter upheaval is the practice of forbearance

Forbearance is defined as “to control one when provoked or halt from action when a certain impulses compels one to act upon a remark”. A very succinct designation of the term forbearance that clearly accentuates a trait that can when applied by the masses can open door to a compatible globe than it is now. For instance if we all we can forbear a slanderous remark then wouldn’t we be living in greater peace. It is quiet obvious but again this “overly inflated ego energy” forbids us to do so because we identify ourselves with this material body even though it’s an illusion. In conclusion, it does not take you to another level just because you retaliated but had the ability to withstand the so-called reprimand and “practicing forbearance even provoked”
