One of my major fears when I was younger was to raise up my finger in class and ask a question to the teacher about something that I didn't understand.
Even if I was completely clueless, didn't know which book we were reading or what page we were on, I would not raise up my hand to ask the teacher what we were doing - because I feared the teacher getting angry with me for being 'dumb' and 'not knowing' as I had seen moments and situations where a child, maybe even myself, asked a question and the teacher got angry and frustrated at them because they asked that question that was already asked a couple of times or simply because they didn't know something that for the teacher was 'completely obvious'.
So based on these experiences i 'wisely' kept my mouth shut and my hands close, to not encounter the 'wrath' of the teacher and to not have the entire class look at me like I am a leper or an alien - so obviously what would eventually happen was that I continued to 'not know' and I would eventually end up in a position wherein my 'not knowing' was revealed even more as the teacher would for instance notice that I was just sitting there, trying to peek at my neighbors and what they were doing in an attempt to try and appease my confusion - in which case she'd call out my name with a sigh, underlining that 'it's always the same with me' and 'I never pay attention' etcetera.
When the actual problem was not that I was 'confused', 'dumb', 'ignorant' or 'easily distracted' per se, it was just that I never dared to support myself in asking a question to the teacher when I didn't know something, because I simply copied the attitude of my teachers wherein it should apparently be 'obvious' that I have to know all these things - not realizing that 'Hey, I'm a kid, how would I know', the entire reason why I am there in school is to learn and grow in my understanding of this world.
But somehow, somewhere things got mixed up and I learned that I am just 'supposed to know' everything already, even if I don't. I just have to hide the fact that I feel really confused about this world and feel as though I don't know jack shit, and throw expensive words into conversations that make it seem as though I am 'very smart' and 'know a lot of stuff', 'just like the teacher' - essentially remaining stuck in perpetual ignorance about what is really going on here, because I was too afraid to ask.

I am walking the 'Desteni 'I' Process' as the process of birthing myself as life from the physical, taking responsibility for all life as me and changing the world within and without.

2012 Anu the Reptilian God
This is the story of Anu - the Creator of humanity. The instigator of all that we know today as our experience of what 'life' is.
Anu was of the Reptilian Race and in this interview he shares his experience of himself when he was 'younger' with regards to existence - which was at that time already separated and fragmented, which turned out to be obvious as not only Anu acted out of selfishness by creating his 'Kingdom' and using all other beings, but also every other being in existence that has allowed itself to be seduced into 'becoming a part of this Kingdom of humanity'.
Discover this fascinating interview made by our Creator himself - and especially discover that there is in essence no creator and that we are here in this mess Alone Together, with no savior, no God, no 'supreme being', no 'divine answer or force' to save, help or rescue us - because Anu was essentially just a being that created a certain creation from the starting point of his personal experience, unaware of himself as Oneness and Equality.
Discover Our Creator Anu in his teenage years, as he grew up in existence and what lead him to consider taking control of existence as 'His Creation'.
Discover what it would be like to stand in the shoes of God - as the realization to have all of existence within yourself, within one being, to stand as the one point where everything comes together and ask yourself 'What would you do? Would you not do what ever it takes to hold on to that ultimate experience of absolute power that is in essence the most all-encompassing experience there exist?'
An important issue that is being discussed in this and in the following interviews of Anu is the question of 'Are we really aware of ourselves?' 'Are we really the directive principle of ourselves here within and as existence?' 'Are we aware of ourselves as existence itself?' and 'Do we even really know where we come from?' - because even Anu as the apparent 'God of existence' had to realize that what he created, who he had become, all that he experienced and every decision that he made in his 'life' was in a way pre-determined as all was merely an outflow of certain experiences of which he never really understood where it all came from as he had just accepted it as 'himself', just like how we are existing at this point.
Another interesting subject Anu takes a look at within his interviews is the concept of 'Birth and Death' as to why it exist and who we are within and as it and how this point of 'recycling' as birth and death has been directing us since the beginning of our existence - and especially why it is imperative that we now for the first time in existence stop ourselves and realize what is here and who we are as here - before it is too late. Before we have literally consumed all and everything that is here on this planet and destroyed it and ourselves and wasted every chance at ever finding out who we are here as life.

2012 "Love is Undefinable", How Convenient
"Love is Undefinable" "Love is a many splendid thing" "Love is all you need" "Love is what makes life worth living" "Love is a feeling"
These are but a few statements that are frequently made about 'love' and what 'love' apparently is in 'life'. However, has anyone of the spiritual masters, or guru's that spend their time telling everyone else just how wonderful 'love' is and how we all 'need love to live' and 'enrich our lives' ever actually explained what love is exactly? Nope, of course not. Because love, according to them, is to be worshiped like God. And love, just like God, works in mysterious ways and cannot, nay, must not be defined or depicted as it is 'a feeling' and is thus only real to the one that 'opens up to the possibility that love/God is real'.
The reason why I would even mention this to be an issue and a problem in this world - is because so many people become enchanted with the apparent 'greatness' and 'healing power' of 'love', so many people are absolutely convinced that 'love will save the world', 'love will end all hate', 'love will end all wars', 'love is what will fix this world and create a heaven for all' - all we have to do is trust in 'love'. Though what does prove itself to be quite problematic is this whole 'love is undefined/undefinable' point that seems to be inherent to the 'love-religion'. Because in all practicality, how will love practically and effectively be able to 'save the world and ourselves' and 'create heaven on earth'? Because if you say that 'love is the answer/solution', then you'd have to be more concise and concrete than to simply claim love to be 'undefinable' and assume that this vague description of an inner experience will do to in fact fix this world.
Love being undefinable is however the very essence of 'love', it is the cause of its very appealing power for many human beings - just like 'God' gets his appeal through being 'mysterious' and 'undefined', 'everywhere and all the time' and 'omnipresent' yet not concrete or actually part of the physical reality and therefore not actually ever to be truly understood. This is obviously the very reason why human beings would choose to believe in God in the first place, because of course if he were simply HERE as a part of the physical reality that we can touch and see, than we wouldn't have to BELIEVE in him in the first place, would we?
And the same goes for love - we choose to believe in love because it is not HERE and because the concept of there being 'more than what is here as the physical reality of ourselves' appeals to our curiosity and desire for sensation. And the reason why the spiritual leaders and guru's that so whole-heatedly present Love as 'the ultimate answer' would claim that love is unquestionably 'undefinable', is because if Love were to be defined then they'd lose their appeal, they'd lose their piggy bank as their apparently 'special, magical message' that so many feel enchanted by and curious towards because it offers them an excuse to participate within the belief that there is 'more to life' than their own lives, than their presence here in this physical reality.
If we have a look at reality and the actual consequences of this apparently glorious 'message of love' that is being spread around by so many 'self-help guru's', than we can see that the only thing that this 'undefinable love' is doing at the moment is to sedate people in their personal 'path' in search for 'love', swept off their feet by this 'higher experience' of love as 'the undefined', completely lost to the actual reality because they chose to believe in a concept that is per definition not real and can never be real as it is already defined as being 'undefined'. This creates quite a problem because beings then become lost within this realm of 'the undefinable inner experiences of love' of which they believe that they 'have found the answer', yet they cannot explain, define or pinpoint just how or why love is the answer exactly, or how love will in fact, effectively change the world - because as we established, 'love is undefined by its very definition'. And there you have it, the marvel of BELIEF and the reason why human beings will continuously choose this belief and their feelings over common sense and what is really HERE, because beliefs and feelings is like the snake that eats its own tale that keeps beings searching for 'the undefined' out of curiosity, never realizing that 'the undefined' will never be found/defined as it is 'undefined' per definition.
Would it not make more sense though that for there to be a real effective answer to this 'defined world/reality' that is the physical reality, as that which we can touch and see, that is HERE and that follows certain laws and orders - this answer must also be defined, meaning, practical and physically lived/liveable. Therefore if we are going to claim that 'love is the answer', we would have to make damn sure that this 'love' will eventually become physically visible. Though of course, here those that profess love as undefinable also have an answer ready, and that is that 'this reality is energy', thus it is not real and the only thing that is 'real' is the undefinable experiences such as love within ourselves - I'd say that is the perfect tool to keep beings in an absolutely passive state and have them never actually move themselves within this reality because they trust that 'their energetic inner state' will fix everything like magic, quite similar to how television has effectively brainwashed us into constructing an imaginary world within ourselves wherein we can feel like the hero, though never actually doing anything that makes any difference in this world because we are so caught up with these inner 'movements of energetic experiences' that we don't even seem to notice that we aren't actually doing anything in real life, in the physical reality that is HERE, we've just become slaves to our own minds as 'the world where everything is possible', though nevertheless a world that is completely submitted to the physical human body and the physical reality.
If 'love' is ever to be real and to be the 'answer' for us to fix this world and clean up the mess that we as humanity have created here in this physical existence - then we're going to have to be specific in defining, explaining and describing what 'love' is and especially who we are when we say such statements as 'I am love' - because to say that 'I am love' and then claim that 'love is undefinable', is nothing but a cop-out to not in fact make a statement of yourself in this reality and to not really stand for anything at all.
So, then what would love be as an actual living statement of self? How can we make 'love' into an actual real living experience that is the expression of this physical reality and not just a personal inner energetic experience that is based on faith, assumptions and belief? To live as the statement of 'I am love' is for instance to make sure that all life may exist within and as this statement and to do whatever it takes to get this entire reality as all that exists here, to change according to who self is as what is best for all. Because after all, what is best for me, should obviously be what is best for all life, therefore why shouldn't I then support and create a world wherein all life-forms may live according to what is best. If I am not willing to give my life for this, than I cannot claim to be 'love' - or then that means that my personal definition of 'love' is completely screwed up and nothing but selfishness.
This is why it is important that we find out the words that we live and are willing to live/exist as - and that we make sure that each and every word that we define ourselves according to is in fact clearly understood within what it practically means to live these definitions in this world, so as to not create unnecessary and unpleasant consequences for ourselves.

I fear Ending up on the Streets
Hey there,
I'm going to share with you a fear that has been existing within me for a long time, which is the fear of ending up on the streets.
This is a fear that I have basically picked up from my parents and grandparents as they often used that phrase of 'what if you end up on the streets?!' when trying to get me to understand just how important it is to have money in this world - to have money and obviously a job.
And it worked, because here I am, absolutely terrified of 'ending up on the streets', and thus terrified of losing my job, my house, my money, which I see as my only security in this reality.
I live in constant fear of losing my job, of being fired, of not being able to pay my bills - which would lead me to 'end up on the streets'.
And obviously now with the 'economical crises' in Europe and basically all over the world - the chances are rising that I would one day actually lose my job and 'end up on the streets', just like so many people are right now really physically living on the streets.

Fear of being Ugly
Hey there,
I'd like to share a fear that has always existed within me (maybe not ALWAYS, but definitely since I was around 12) - the fear of being 'ugly'.
This fear specifically was with regards to being judged by (back then) the other kids on the playground and from my class as being 'ugly' and 'unattractive', which also had a lot to do with 'there being something wrong with me'.
'Something wrong' would then be like not looking like how a 'normal girl' would/should look like, because I started to notice that the boys and girls were judging each other, and I of course went along with it. The boys would often even be really mean when they were describing a girl, especially about certain aspects of that girl that were apparently 'undesirable' and 'not good' - they would completely bash this person in their words and 'laugh at them' among each other, confirming just how 'not good' this girl was in their eyes.
And the girls would do pretty much the same amongst themselves about the other girls and boys - and the judgments were always basically about whether or not a girl was deemed 'feminine' enough and a boy was deemed 'masculine' enough according to certain standards and qualities/properties that apparently defined 'a woman' and 'a man'. Thus boys that had feminine aspects/qualities about their appearance and mannerism would be negatively judged and basically put down and rejected in the words we'd speak to describe them among ourselves and the girls that had masculine qualities and mannerism would be judged and rejected in the same way. For instance I remember overhearing a group of boys talking about a girl that had a 'mustache' (she had a little bit darker hair on her upper lip) - which then initiated my fear of 'having a mustache' because apparently boys actually notice, judge and reject this. So based on this particular memory, I would walk around my entire life with an immense fear of 'having a mustache' and especially of boys/men seeing it, thinking of various ways to effectively get rid of any dark hair that I may have on my upper lip.
And what is interesting is that eventually I would even physically manifest this fear, because I would notice some darker hair on my upper lip (not even that noticeable really) and immediately I'd start pulling it out, because I felt this absolute panic of being judged about it by boys/men - so obviously what happened is that the hair grew back, only darker, which caused me to panic even more and start pulling it out more fervently. And eventually now I have to continuously remove the hair on my upper lip because it tends to grow longer and darker than on the rest of my face. So this just shows how extensively this fear has been messing with my head
So, this 'fear of being ugly' is really a fear of being 'unattractive', of being 'rejected' by boys/men as a fear of not being able to have a relationship - which means to not be able to 'play the sex-game' wherein we all seem to be players and the girls that are deemed to be 'feminine' and the men that are deemed to be 'masculine', are glorified and get all the 'attention'/'prizes' and the ones who apparently 'don't fit the part' don't get to play and are then the 'social outcasts'. This is a seriously sad and messed up game that we're playing here within and as humanity!

2012 When is 'Inner Revolution' real?
"In my view, the revolution within is the one that leads to fundamental change. It is a revolution without conflict, without fanfare and without the comfort of camaraderie. It is an individual enterprise in which we observe our minds to expose the “I” that splinters the world with its desire for recognition. To me, this is the revolution most worthy of our attention." ( from the article "Gearing up for Revolution")
As long as there exist the idea that there is an apparent 'difference' between the 'inner revolution' and the 'outer revolution', one exist in separation of self and self-dishonesty. When one stand within and as self-honesty as oneness and equality here, then all self-movement is simply here, without any 'distinction' or 'difference' or 'separation' between what is apparently 'in' and what is apparently 'out', as all is Self, one and equally here.
Therefore the 'outer revolution' with for instance Equal Money is the 'natural' expression of self within and as oneness and equality - wherein self move self within and as the realization of what is necessary to be done to sort out this physically manifested reality that self has constructed over time through self's participation in the mind as self-interested separation.
Only those who remain stuck in their unconscious fears towards the apparent 'outer world' that is actually their own self-created inner world of the mind as separation, will not in fact move themselves and claim 'inner peace' in apparent separation of the 'outer war' - instead of realizing that all war only exist in self as this entire 'inner vs outer' is a mind-created illusion reality that serves to hide the truth of self as absolutely responsible for all that exist, because all exist here, one and equal with and as self here.
To further understand this point - you may ask yourself 'why do I separate outer from inner reality in the first place?' and 'what is it that creates the apparent separation between outer and inner reality?' because the answer to this is 'fear'. Fear is the friction/energy that creates that sensation/experience that there is an 'inner' and an 'outer' reality - so no matter how much one focuses on the apparent 'inner peace' and experience this 'inner peace', as long as there exist the idea/experience of there being an 'outer reality' that in some way differs from the 'inner reality, one exist in fear and all inner peace is illusion and self-deception.
If this 'inner peace' were real, as a self-honest self-expression - then ones world would be 'peaceful', then the world/reality would be the absolute manifested expression of 'peace' - then every particle, atom, structure and life-form in existence would exist as this 'peace'. Yet it does not - there only exist this apparent 'inner peace' that so many claim to be 'who they are' as an inner, personal experience that exist in separation of an apparent 'outer reality' that is the manifested expression in war.
So, these beings are simply not willing to take responsibility for what actually exist here as reality - as they'd rather believe that they in some way exist separately from what is here as this physically manifested existence, because they don't want to face themselves as what exist here as what is here at the moment is hell. And so they'll claim 'inner revolution', that is in fact but a self-created energetic experience that validate the self-image of 'I am a peaceful/enlightened/spiritual being', not willing to consider that the reality of self may not be what we'd expect it to be.
Why is Desteni different from 'the power of NOW' and 'mindfulness'? What Desteni stands for is to get to know oneself and reality, instead of simply 'becoming peaceful within'. 'The power of NOW' and' mindfulness' is based on the principle/belief that one must become quiet within the mind, that one must stop all thoughts, to become peaceful within, so that one may be able to change the world without to also become peaceful. However the question is not asked of 'but how did we really get this way in the first place?' and 'why are we not peaceful already?'. It is believed that one will 'get to know oneself' by observing ones thoughts, feelings and emotions as the 'inner conflict', though if one have a look at ones starting point in this 'observation', it is from the desire to eventually 'be able to' 'quiet the mind', which implies that there still exist some polarity of trying to get away from something and trying to get to somewhere. For instance trying to get away from 'war' and 'conflict' and trying to get to/reach 'peace' - through 'observation'.
Yet, within this, one is still not aware of why, how, who or what this is all about and who self actually is and what this entire reality is actually about - the only thing that is focused on within this is 'war vs peace' - to get from war/conflict to peace, be it inner or outer or both, simply assuming that that is our 'purpose' in life, to become 'peaceful', without questioning what the hell is going on in the first place that got us in this fucked up state of apparent 'conflict'.
What Desteni represents is that one do not simply assume anything about self or reality - but rather go and thoroughly investigate self, without expectations or predisposition. And this can only be done through applying self-forgiveness, and not by observing. Because have a look, what we do in this 'observing' the 'inner reality' - is in fact separating ourselves from ourselves, separating ourselves from the apparent 'conflict' within ourselves by merely standing on the sidelines watching it, slowly but surely quieting down and becoming 'peaceful' as one do not participate in the thoughts anymore. And then, when that 'state' of inner peace is obtained, one becomes a 'master', an 'enlightened being', that shows everyone else what they were able to achieve as inner peace, attempting to 'make the world a peaceful place' by hoping that everyone then become like them and follow their lead just like they followed the lead of other masters and enlightened beings.
Yet there was never any awareness of self as the creator of this 'inner conflict'. No real responsibility was ever taken for the inner experience as one only focused on attaining this 'peaceful state' and believed that 'that is who i really am' - and because one did not walk backwards through ones life to trace back the steps that self undertook to slowly but surely 'become' and 'grow into' this 'inner conflicted being', therefore there was no real self-discovery or -investigation. And because of this lack of true understanding of how self has actually constructed this 'inner conflict' through time as the mind - one will obviously never be able to take any real responsibility for this world because one did not take responsibility for self - by not standing one and equal with and as self, but rather simply changing the 'personality-suits' from being an 'inner conflicted being' to being an 'inner peaceful being'.
So Get real with Desteni and stand up as a self-responsible being that stands within and as the principle of oneness and equality as what is best for ALL.
And discover this truly enlightening interview series - the "What is Sex?" Interview series that
explain in detail just how we have, since the dawn of man as consciousness systems, constructed this physical reality as the manifested expression of who we have allowed ourselves to become as separation.
As long as there exist the idea that there is an apparent 'difference' between the 'inner revolution' and the 'outer revolution', one exist in separation of self and self-dishonesty. When one stand within and as self-honesty as oneness and equality here, then all self-movement is simply here, without any 'distinction' or 'difference' or 'separation' between what is apparently 'in' and what is apparently 'out', as all is Self, one and equally here.
Therefore the 'outer revolution' with for instance Equal Money is the 'natural' expression of self within and as oneness and equality - wherein self move self within and as the realization of what is necessary to be done to sort out this physically manifested reality that self has constructed over time through self's participation in the mind as self-interested separation.
Only those who remain stuck in their unconscious fears towards the apparent 'outer world' that is actually their own self-created inner world of the mind as separation, will not in fact move themselves and claim 'inner peace' in apparent separation of the 'outer war' - instead of realizing that all war only exist in self as this entire 'inner vs outer' is a mind-created illusion reality that serves to hide the truth of self as absolutely responsible for all that exist, because all exist here, one and equal with and as self here.
To further understand this point - you may ask yourself 'why do I separate outer from inner reality in the first place?' and 'what is it that creates the apparent separation between outer and inner reality?' because the answer to this is 'fear'. Fear is the friction/energy that creates that sensation/experience that there is an 'inner' and an 'outer' reality - so no matter how much one focuses on the apparent 'inner peace' and experience this 'inner peace', as long as there exist the idea/experience of there being an 'outer reality' that in some way differs from the 'inner reality, one exist in fear and all inner peace is illusion and self-deception.
If this 'inner peace' were real, as a self-honest self-expression - then ones world would be 'peaceful', then the world/reality would be the absolute manifested expression of 'peace' - then every particle, atom, structure and life-form in existence would exist as this 'peace'. Yet it does not - there only exist this apparent 'inner peace' that so many claim to be 'who they are' as an inner, personal experience that exist in separation of an apparent 'outer reality' that is the manifested expression in war.
So, these beings are simply not willing to take responsibility for what actually exist here as reality - as they'd rather believe that they in some way exist separately from what is here as this physically manifested existence, because they don't want to face themselves as what exist here as what is here at the moment is hell. And so they'll claim 'inner revolution', that is in fact but a self-created energetic experience that validate the self-image of 'I am a peaceful/enlightened/spiritual being', not willing to consider that the reality of self may not be what we'd expect it to be.
Why is Desteni different from 'the power of NOW' and 'mindfulness'? What Desteni stands for is to get to know oneself and reality, instead of simply 'becoming peaceful within'. 'The power of NOW' and' mindfulness' is based on the principle/belief that one must become quiet within the mind, that one must stop all thoughts, to become peaceful within, so that one may be able to change the world without to also become peaceful. However the question is not asked of 'but how did we really get this way in the first place?' and 'why are we not peaceful already?'. It is believed that one will 'get to know oneself' by observing ones thoughts, feelings and emotions as the 'inner conflict', though if one have a look at ones starting point in this 'observation', it is from the desire to eventually 'be able to' 'quiet the mind', which implies that there still exist some polarity of trying to get away from something and trying to get to somewhere. For instance trying to get away from 'war' and 'conflict' and trying to get to/reach 'peace' - through 'observation'.
Yet, within this, one is still not aware of why, how, who or what this is all about and who self actually is and what this entire reality is actually about - the only thing that is focused on within this is 'war vs peace' - to get from war/conflict to peace, be it inner or outer or both, simply assuming that that is our 'purpose' in life, to become 'peaceful', without questioning what the hell is going on in the first place that got us in this fucked up state of apparent 'conflict'.
What Desteni represents is that one do not simply assume anything about self or reality - but rather go and thoroughly investigate self, without expectations or predisposition. And this can only be done through applying self-forgiveness, and not by observing. Because have a look, what we do in this 'observing' the 'inner reality' - is in fact separating ourselves from ourselves, separating ourselves from the apparent 'conflict' within ourselves by merely standing on the sidelines watching it, slowly but surely quieting down and becoming 'peaceful' as one do not participate in the thoughts anymore. And then, when that 'state' of inner peace is obtained, one becomes a 'master', an 'enlightened being', that shows everyone else what they were able to achieve as inner peace, attempting to 'make the world a peaceful place' by hoping that everyone then become like them and follow their lead just like they followed the lead of other masters and enlightened beings.
Yet there was never any awareness of self as the creator of this 'inner conflict'. No real responsibility was ever taken for the inner experience as one only focused on attaining this 'peaceful state' and believed that 'that is who i really am' - and because one did not walk backwards through ones life to trace back the steps that self undertook to slowly but surely 'become' and 'grow into' this 'inner conflicted being', therefore there was no real self-discovery or -investigation. And because of this lack of true understanding of how self has actually constructed this 'inner conflict' through time as the mind - one will obviously never be able to take any real responsibility for this world because one did not take responsibility for self - by not standing one and equal with and as self, but rather simply changing the 'personality-suits' from being an 'inner conflicted being' to being an 'inner peaceful being'.
So Get real with Desteni and stand up as a self-responsible being that stands within and as the principle of oneness and equality as what is best for ALL.

2012 Is Individuality a Program? Unraveling the Design.
Century of Self
In the documentary 'Century of Self', the 'transformation' of the human being from a being that simply works/lives for survival to a 'spiritual being' as one that desires for there to be more to 'life' than merely surviving is very well laid out, walking through the changes in society that created the changes in the self-perception and world-view of the human being.
This documentary clearly shows that there is much more to ourselves than who we believe/think ourselves to be, that there are factors that determine and shape our very personality and experience of ourselves that we've always taken for granted - more specifically these factors are the economic system as businesses and corporations that shaped our society and our experience of ourselves within it that we know today.
It is fascinating that the human being never really sees itself as a part of a bigger picture, in that is very gullible and naive as it will believe and copy its environment very quickly and easily, quite like a robot/computer is able to be programmed by inserting certain programs as knowledge and information about 'who/what it is', 'why it is' and 'what it is here to do'. The human being will construct its views and experiences of itself and 'reality' based on copied and accepted information and experiences rather than to investigate itself and reality to find out what is really going on within and as 'the bigger picture'.
Therefore the human being as who/what it is today will never truly consider itself to be but a product of certain events, changes and evolutionary processes that occurred in the past, and it will simply live out its 'programming' based on for instance the belief of 'individuality' - without even realizing or noticing that this concept of 'individuality' in itself is a concept/idea that was 'programmed into us' by our environment.
This is a point that is very well explained and laid out in this documentary 'Century of Self' - wherein they show what changes the society went through in terms of new scientific development that in turn shaped the external factors of society that shape a human beings perception/experience of itself and the world
Shaping the individual through consumerism
The 'scientific development' that made a great impact on the economic (and later on the political) landscape was specifically the theories and discoveries of Sigmund Freud. He discovered that the human has a subconscious and unconscious mind/layer underneath its conscious mind that is actually the driving force of the human being in this world, and these 'sub-layers' are filled with various hidden and suppressed emotional experiences and desires that could trigger a being into doing irrational acts --which then implies that the human being would actually be very easily influenced and directed by someone/something who knows how the mind works and who knows how to push the unconscious/subconscious 'buttons'.
With the advice of Edward Bernays, Freud's nephew and 'public relations adviser', the Business world would eventually apply Freud's theory in their advertisement and marketing strategies to direct, channel and use the unconscious desires of human beings to their advantage, by linking their products through symbols to unconscious desires of the human being. Thus, consumerism started because corporations and industries were no longer only focusing on what the human needed to live/survive, but on what the human (unconsciously) desired --which didn't necessarily have anything to do with what they needed.
And so, also the idea of 'individuality' started growing - wherein human beings were supported in advertisement to 'express their uniqueness' and 'individuality' through the products that they buy. 'to live' became equal to 'to consume/buy', as people would basically be presented with this new idea that they are 'an individual' and that this 'individuality' must be cultivated through buying certain products to show to the world the kind of individual that you are.
The idea that arose at this point was that the human being is 'so much more' than merely a being that tries to survive in this world. This notion of there apparently being 'so much more'/'something special' to the human being, which was called into being by corporations seeking to make more money through going from a market of limited needs/demand to one with ever changing demand/needs , is what would lay the basic foundation for the 'spiritual personality' that we are growing into today - as we search ever more diligently for our 'special purpose in life' and for 'who we really are' as the apparent specialness of our human existence.
The power of powerlessness
Now, this was happening around the 1950's, starting in the US. Based on Freud's theories about the unconscious mind, governments and corporations sought to use and direct these inner unconscious desires of 'the masses' towards a specific mind-set that benefited both the political and economical world - because, as Freud claimed, the inner desires of the human being are inherently evil and therefore must be suppressed/repressed, and at the same time conformed to a single goal that is to be determined by those in power.
However, towards the 60's, people started to 'rebel' against this conformity, ignited by a few people like Wilhelm Reich and Martin Luther King - large protests and campains were held by students on American campuses against the society that they apparently had to conform to, which was capitalism, religious doctrines, racial segregation and manipulation through advertisement as these students began to notice that consumerism is in fact a way to keep the people docile and distracted while the government could wage its violent war in Vietnam without being questioned. These 'rebels' were then seen as the 'new left', to which the government reacted very violently in their attempt to keep 'the masses' controlled, contained and conformed.
As a reaction to this violent attack from the government that in a way rendered the 'new left' with a feeling of powerlessness towards ever being able to change the status quo - they turned to a new ideology: "If it is impossible to get the policeman out of ones head by overthrowing the state, instead one should find a way of getting inside ones own mind and removing the controls implanted there by the state and corporations".
This new idea sounded in the era of the 'new self', the 'self-actualized human being' - based on the idea that 'the external world, like governments and the economic system doesn't need to be changed - as the human is perfectly capable of being happy/creating happiness within its own mind'.
From this, many 'spiritual movements' and therapies came forth that supported the human in cultivating this 'inner happiness' and 'self-actualization' and thus human beings again felt like they had found purpose and meaning to their lives, they found their point of 'individuality' wherein they were apparently freed from the grip of the corporations and the governments that were apparently trying to conform them into docile slaves.
Though what was not realized is that they may have felt as though the world has changed by cultivating 'inner change' through generating certain inner experiences, yet the political and economical structures that actually shaped and governed the world and the lives of each human being were still here and still very much in control. In fact, they were very busy searching for new ways of using and directing this 'new self' to their advantage.
What actually happened here was that the hold of the political and economical structures on people and the separation between those in power and 'the masses' only became stronger/bigger as politics and economics in a way moved to the background into the 'unseen' as human beings now existed within this belief that 'the inner experience shapes the world'. In this they never realized that this 'state of mind' only made them more vulnerable to being manipulated by those 'unseen forces' that were actually governing their lives.
Human beings became completely consumed by the idea of individuality, wherein 'the self' as the inner experience of self stepped into the foreground and took the center stage - losing all touch with the basic foundational structures that direct and govern this world, as they had 'given up' when they stood in the face of the violence exerted towards them by their own government. Instead of facing this inner defeat and being self-honest about what is really going on to continue to look for a way to change the basic infrastructures of this world to create a world that is best for all, they gave in to the defeat by looking away from it and distracting themselves by creating the opposite experience within themselves, which was that of 'self-glorification' as the belief that 'if I change myself on the inside, then the outside world will magically change'.
This never actually worked as human beings didn't even realize their very starting point of wanting to 'change their inner self', which was the experience of powerlessness towards the world. This glorification of the inner experience was in fact but an excuse that human beings used to not take part in the world anymore, to not have to deal with the reality of what it would actually take to in fact change this world - as they had accepted themselves as 'powerless towards the powers that be', 'powerless towards the world-structures'. So the only power they could experience was inside of themselves wherein they apparently had the power to 'become whoever they wanted to be'.
Out of this flowed various forms of apparently fantastic, wondrous, great and glorious 'inner experiences' such as 'love, peace and understanding' with the hippie-movement in the 70's, in which they placed their faith, hope and trust that these 'wonderful inner experiences' will 'magically' change the world. Yet - it obviously never did as beings would continuously overlook the actual real workings of this world because they didn't want to be confronted anymore with the very things they feared and felt powerless towards.
The consequences of individuality
As a result and outflow of these 'evolutions' in the mind-set of human beings due to various events in society - what we now have is a human being that is lost within its 'self-glorification' as the idea that 'my individuality and my inner experiences is all that exist', that is cunningly directed by corporations to 'keep the economy going' and by governments to ensure that 'the masses' will never again question 'the powers that be'. We are now in an age of mass ignorance that grew over time - as a result of human beings accepting their apparent inherent powerlessness towards this world and towards creating a world that is best for all, eventually turning towards the 'light' of spirituality and television that feed an inner experience of power. Yet we never realized that this experience of power is not actual power - it is actually powerlessness in disguise.
This explains why many beings react with aversion and rejection towards the message and idea of an Equal Money system as a political solution that aims at bringing about practical change in this world in fact, using the basic infrastructures that is here - because people don't want to be confronted with reality anymore, as they'd rather believe in the light and the positive inner experiences as the illusion of power. We have at this point in time become so disconnected from what is real because we fear what is real, we fear the government, we fear economics, we fear money and what it could do to us, we fear the power of the system, we fear police - because we have come to identify ourselves with the experience of powerlessness towards the capitalist system and politics, and we have even accepted it as 'reality' that is apparently 'unchangeable' as if it were designed by the very hand of God, never to be questioned by us 'common folks'. Therefore apparently our only choice is to distract ourselves with love and light and inner experiences, to at least create the feeling that we have power.
Is there a solution?
What this 'Century of Self' documentary clearly reveals and exposes is that the human perception and experience of 'self' as 'an individual' at this point in time is in fact a 'construct'/program that has been built up over time through 'shifts in consciousness' that occurred as reactions to certain situations/events that happened - very similar to how differences in 'mentality' between cultures are defined and shaped within major events that happened in the timeline of that particular culture, that caused the beings within that specific 'culture'/country to react a certain way and thus 'shift' their understanding/consciousness of themselves and the world.
So, what this essentially implies is that we as 'individuals' as a collection of thoughts feelings and emotions within ourselves that we call 'our identity/personality' - are/is a program and that we/it can thus be 'de-programmed'.
The reason why this realization is so important is because it is clear to see that we have become lost in our programming and we have made a mess of this reality, because we never realized ourselves as who/what we are, which is basically programmable robots. Once we realize that we have been programmed, we can de-program ourselves and 'recreate ourselves' into a being that stands as what is best for all life within and as the self-directive principle of life, to ensure that we never allow ourselves to make such a mess of reality ever again.
