He who watches people is on the verge of , and deadly worries are many, such as the worry of fabrication, the worry of flattery, the worry of deception, the worry of lying, then the worry of hostility and consequently violence, Then the worries of illusions and the worries of the relationship between mind and muscle, a relationship that is intriguing, It is observed that there is an inverse relationship between mind and muscle; whenever the muscle enlarges, the mind shrinks to the point of disappearance in some cases.
It is said that the decline experienced by the peoples of this region stems from a decline in rationality and, consequently, objectivity, Those who lack or have atrophied reason do not act objectively or rationally, How did these human beings lose their minds, even though they were born with sound minds? How did the mind, which is responsible for managing the project of progress and civilization, building society, strengthening its independence and its civilizational role in this world, ensuring the well-being of its members, and achieving their material, intellectual, psychological, and social security, regress? The mind has resigned, regressed, and become paralyzed, The proof of this is undoubtedly what we are witnessing now in this region: backwardness, primitivism, inferiority, hunger, disease, infighting, crime, and a tendency towards gratuitous self-annihilation, Irrational behavior leads to the triumph of death over life and evil over good, There is no growth in the lands of the Bedouin, and no prosperity except in the graveyards. Is this what these peoples want?!
It is certain that development, whether physical or mental, requires exercise and practice, We see in this region a remarkable spread of bodybuilding clubs and a strange scarcity of social and intellectual clubs,The former ensures the building of muscle, while the mind finds no one to nurture and develop it,Many have sought to assassinate and destroy it, and many are their successes that have led to its disappearance, Peoples have become almost mindless, wandering aimlessly on this earth, which they betray unintentionally, out of ignorance, not knowledge, The word “betrayal” may carry within its letters a degree of deviation from the truth, but irrational interaction with the earth and what is on it cannot but be harmful to the earth and its inhabitants, Is it possible for a rational and sensible person to harm himself and what he owns? If there is no betrayal, then at least there is negligence or shortcoming that has reached the level of a crime against oneself and against the earth on which he lives.
How can we understand the encouragement of building muscle while neglecting the establishment of forums that nurture the mind? Is the reason inherent in the same old story? Or is the cause a kind of irrational fear of an active mind and mature thought? Why fear what is not usually frightening? An active mind and mature thought are not frightening,What is frightening is muscle without a mind, and what is terrifying is the unchecked power of muscle that monopolizes acts of sabotage and violence, Muscle without a mind does not build a home, does not contribute to progress, and does not establish a better life. The most that muscle without a mind can offer is its readiness to be subservient and rented out to those who want a life of gangs. Muscle is cheap and can be bought, but the mind is precious and cannot be bought easily. Unfortunately, the market for muscles is thriving in the region and is harmful to it, while the market for the mind is, even more sadly, stagnant!
Turning away from rationality in general leads to a kind of cognitive and value castration. Castration is sterility, and one of the causes of this sterility is preventing cross-fertilization between ideas, preventing their mating and reproductive reproduction, and preventing the abortion of what is bad from their products and the birth or production of what is better,Ideas can only be different,Here, difference guarantees the possibility of mating, reproduction, and the birth of the appropriate, developed, The mating of similar things is like the mating of homosexuals, and the single thought is “homosexual” that does not give birth or produce, but rather consumes and parasitizes the life of others.
The unity or unification of thought—if unity or unification can even be described as thought!—constantly tries to treat its ills with a medicine that is itself a disease. Unification deludes itself into thinking that sanctifying itself protects this self, since the sacred cannot be touched, altered, or interpreted, The sanctity of the single thought and its single “genius” may prolong the life of these manifestations, but their end is inevitable, Intellectual homogeneity does not establish a lineage, and its fate is one generation at most, It dies with the death of the “genius” or follows him with a short interval of time, Here, we have no choice but to warn against deification and imitating gods, for the market for gods in this era is stagnant, and even the religions of these gods or messengers are suffering from severe crises.
The causes of civilizational decline, which has kept nations out of history, are numerous. Constants have been glorified and sung about, paralyzing minds, A mind that does not work withers with time, Why engage in intellectual activity when constants exist, especially religious ones? Constants do not represent “thought” in any way, because they only exist with rigidity, stagnation, and petrification, incapable of development, or rather, forbidden from evolving, deconstructing, or analyzing, They are permitted to be taught, inherited, and then protected by a wall of sanctity, Intellectual stagnation and unchecked power have destroyed the past and present of nations and will destroy their future, Remember the saying of a wise person: “I think, therefore I am!”
