Society is a system, a device, each cog of which must accurately perform its function. For the smooth operation of the machine, all parts must clearly comply with the main laws that set the structure in motion. Any structure needs a strict order so that its destruction does not occur. Even a slight deviation can cause a noticeable failure, and chaos is simply deadly. The world of people is a reasonable mechanism, and the right person is a reliable component.
Follow a certain logical sequence of behavior, which is determined by the norms of morality, from early childhood it is imputed by society to everyone. To live according to the schedule established long before his birth is the unspoken duty of any representative of the system.
Survival dogma or dogma survival?
Initially, all morals and rules of conduct were intended to preserve existence. They were necessary for humane interaction between members of the community or were used as a precautionary measure. At that time, the right man was simply seeking to save his life. Self-preservation was then considered the top priority, and the fear of death became the mainfactor for spreading the commandments, keeping them and passing them on to the next generations.
All normal people try to make their existence or the lives of loved ones as safe as possible, the need to follow the unspoken laws and the ancient rules themselves are written in the mass unconscious. Each deviation from generally accepted canons causes primitive horror and is strictly condemned by others. The right person, who has changed the habitual behavior of everyone, becomes an outcast, which threatens his survival.
Regulation Society
Having barely been born, any individual finds himself surrounded by all sorts of norms, unspoken laws and rules. They are so familiar that they have become almost invisible, and following a lot of prescriptions seems very natural. On the one hand, all these conventions help a lot to interact with other people, but even if a person is perfect, he has difficulty expressing himself - many taboos limit his true essence.
Really find yourself in society is becoming increasingly difficult. The media and advertising skillfully manipulate the mass consciousness, and the very concept of the “right person”, the meaning of which is constantly changing, has been turned into a kind of standard or authority. Everyone must strive to live up to this artificial ideal in order to arouse universal approval and raise self-esteem.
Correct life
The structured world of prohibitions, orders, prescriptions was created by some representatives of humanity for others in order to moreeffective management and strengthening of power. People often like to obey because it allows you to get rid of responsibility for your own actions. They do not need to suffer from doubts, make decisions, make plans, and most importantly, choose the most appropriate way to proceed.
Everything is extremely simple: a person follows one or another algorithm of existence, depending on the situation. Approved and forbidden are two components of the life of the average individual. It remains only to remember the canons that separate them.
Are rules natural?
Nature lives according to its own laws, which are often opposite to the norms invented by people. The contradiction becomes obvious if we recall, for example, the unattainable ideals of beauty of different times. These standards forced many imitators to sacrifice their own comfort, he alth, money, and such irrational zeal began to be accepted as a rule. Not following society's requirements for one's own appearance is now resented.
Each person is perfect, but the soulless mechanism of the system is more profitable than the standard appearance - the same people are much easier to manage. Now following unspoken norms has turned into a kind of ritual of everyday falsity, violence against one's own inner "I". Most do not even try to understand why they do this or that action.
Awareness or functioning?
Modern conventions and prescriptions are either fragments of traditions or forgotten ancient onesprinciples once needed. Any successful interaction turns into a dead set of unspoken laws, an imitation of life, a consistent algorithm for a biorobot. There is no logical justification for many rules taken as inviolable dogma.
Meaningful life requires responsibility, constant control over your thoughts and aspirations. Ordinary people rarely naturally ask what motivated them to do something, and often cannot distinguish even their own desires from mere imitation of the mindless choice of the crowd. For the conscious formation of any person, it is necessary to carefully separate the imposed dead dogmas from their own principles.
