Conspiracy of Inspiration - The New Name of The Game


The first question I raised myself is – Is it new? – My answer is certainly “No”, then why I kept its new name of the game. I believe, the concept of conspiracy of inspiration used by all our great cherished leaders in the past, however the way they used this is more strategic and for the benefit of the society in most of the cases (debatable). And I feel this is prevailing again in modern era, considering the vulnerable society. Now, every person is acting like an automated machine, and feels the necessity of being humane at times. This feeling of being part of the human generation will be provided by our so called inspirers. But the way it is being done is what I feel is conspiracy!!!

Let me tell you what I mean by Conspiracy of Inspiration. This is the process of mystifying people with what they like rather than what’s correct. In this process, people will listen to what these people say because it is in tune with their belief system, which don’t need any change of their existing beliefs and will be carried away with this. And by this process, they create an image of leadership, which I feel pseudo leadership. Of course, this process needs innate potential and intrinsic capabilities powered by indomitable genius.

Jesus Christ and Mahatma Gandhi are best examples of this kind. Their vision is selfless and the way they inspired people is in that direction hence they reached the state of god. Of course these cases are extreme cases, however they did this. How the modern world is reacting to these kinds of situations is questionable. The modern era questions everything and if they are able to get the answers they want, they are ready to accept the leadership and become followers without any further validity of the truth. However getting them to listen to what we say is difficult. However a situation of vulnerability may let people cross this barrier and let them listen to the world of inspiration to get carried away with. Because they are supposed to listen to, what they want to listen to and hence they got into the trap that cannot be realized. I am not sure, is it good or bad, I saw both the extreme cases, who utilized these situations for their benefit and also those who ridiculed themselves with these thoughts. However, by introspection and by going deep inside, one can really feel the necessity of being humane and hence come out of this trap, if it is truly a trap.

I feel, this is important considering the way technology is changing the way people interact. Now, people rarely talk verbally. The communication happens by means of electronic media, if at all people talk, they use mobile phones or voice chat in computers. So, when there exists a communication gap between individuals, they feel the necessity of being prone to pseudo spirituality which can be attained by words of wisdom which they want to hear rather than what they need to be heard.

So, Individuals need to start thinking. Thinking is a cognitive process and needs time. If you are not giving enough time to think and blame your decision process, it’s a lame excuse. You ought to derive the consciousness by the process of thinking which otherwise is impossible to be provided with. This ability is what make humans what they are and create a sense of self esteem and pride to die with.
