Mass delusion is the result of the effort. Propaganda is one of the techniques. But it mentioned things like you create a consensus of something that's totally absurd. You get people believing something totally absurd, however that's done, and then the people with common sense come along and say, "No, no, no. That's totally wrong," and they end up being the new kooks and weirdos. They are the ones society thinks are cockeyed and weird.

In meditation, once you are gone in, you are gone in. Then, even when you resurrect you are a totally different person. The old personality is nowhere to be found.

You leave America, then you go someplace else, you begin to create something totally different.

We live in this society where you must constantly be reinventing yourself. The big question is what are you doing next.

That's all you have to do. You just have to do something that's exactly the same, totally different, and better.
