Social isolation
with TV and Internet is not social isolation.
Social isolation
with books and magazines is not social isolation.
The “problem” isn’t simply
a so-called physical virus,
but a kind of mind virus as well,
brought about by centuries
of mass media contamination.
Look inside the petri dish.
The growth is in the culture.
True social isolation
means setting aside
what you’re being taught,
and having faith in
what you intuitively know.
You are fine.
Even if you die a horrific death,
you are fine.

🙈🙊🙉 In the realm of social isolation, it is essential to recognize that true connection goes beyond physical proximity. While modern technologies like TV, the Internet, books, and magazines can provide information and entertainment, they do not fully substitute for genuine human connection.
🍌 The metaphor of a mind virus is thought-provoking. Mass media can shape our thoughts, beliefs, and perceptions, influencing our understanding of the world. It’s important to critically examine the information we consume and find a balance between external influences and our own inner knowing.
😃 The reminder to trust our intuition and have faith in what we know resonates deeply. Intuition can guide us through uncertain times and help us navigate our own unique paths.
🙉 The statement “You are fine, even if you die a horrific death” may seem unsettling at first, but it carries a profound message. It reminds us that there is more to our existence than our physical bodies and mortal experiences. It speaks to the resilience and transcendence of the human spirit.
🍌 Thank you for sharing these reflections on social isolation and the power of inner knowing. Your words encourage us to look beyond external influences and trust in our own innate wisdom.
