For a materialistic person, the idea of discovering things such as about yourself must be a very funny idea. Before i will go any farther, I have to warn my readers first that there will be provocative statements that I am going to present. I say so, because I cannot avoid mentioning my provocative ideas.

How well do you know yourself? I think you only know yourself physically and you are absolutely ignorant when it comes to your "inner self". The phrase inner self is not a common idea and it may even be a strange idea because we are used to things which we can see and touch only because we are in a materialistic society. So that, the "inner self" I mentioned pertains to all "non-physical" parts of yourself.

In knowing your "inner self" requires you to be absolutely honest and sincere to "yourself" because in a materialistic society honesty and sincerity is never significant and important and money dissolved all those virtues. So that, right or wrong money is everything and nothing else. It is no longer new to all of us that people kills and destroys all the beautiful creations of our "Creator" just because of money it blinded us and made us "inhuman". Therefore, it makes honesty and sincerity insignificant so that lies are better as long as you will have that money you want. "If a taxi driver returns the money (say a million) left behind by his passenger". In this materialistic society the driver will look like a fool than be a admired. There are "only a few" who will admire his honesty but majority of the people will never see him as a good example.

Materialistic society is a place for deception, that badness we are already used to. That is, we are not allowed to just easily believe what a stranger says; the same to people we already knew but still we are not allowed to trust him fully, it means there is always that doubt. How much more to a poor and miserable and hungry person, "surely he might be a thief or what that we should not listen to him whatsoever. The relationship between us and others have been already destroyed instead it will be based on who has the money, so that the more money you have the more respect you will get and by the time you lose those money subsequently respect is lose. The most affected in this type of situations are our families a woman based her love and affection to her man by how much he earns or his capacity to support a family. It means the real essence of love is lost, it is no longer important instead it will be in terms of money. The "mentality" that inorder to survive the only option left is money.

Without honesty and sincerity both our relationship to each other and how we look at "our selves" is a big destruction. Because a person who is honest and sincere both to "himself" and to his fellow human being is the "true human being" while the one who is not is the "false human being" because this kind of a person wants "to own everything just for himself alone" he is an extrremely materialistic person who thinks that with more and more wealth that will make him happy and satisfied in life. The situations will be, the rich owns almost everything while the majority of the people who are poor own almost nothing but who is also after the same thing as what the rich wants. For example, consider wealth as ten stones and there are ten people, one of them is very rich and he owns eight stones while the nine people will have to fight among themselves for the remaining two stones not only that but the only one very rich is still fighting for the last two stones because he wants to own everything. Now, consider those ten stones as the wealth of the planet earth which are too much or more than enough to feed even ten times ten there number or ten times ten equals one hundred. The idea is, our planet earth could feed all of us of which there is no need to control our population. Our planet earth has more than enough to make us comfortable and have a luxurious life.

Then what is really the "nature" of man? When you will say that "man is not honest and sincere" then his nature should be "badness". That I will say everything that is taking place right now or ever since are "all acts of badness" but there there are also "events of goodness". So that, you cannot really pipoint which is which, as the "true nature of man" but generally, "it is badness that we have right now." That will conclude then that man is not honest and sincere to his fellow men and to his "very own self". Does that mean that our God or Creator doomed us to destruction then, is it the "meaning of life for all of us?" We are now destroying "our own selves and the planet earth as a whole". Now, here is my philosophy, and this is the only way to know and discover. Man committed a mistake! And the only way for him to "realize" it is by being "truly honest and sincere to his own self" first. And why was this, was allowed to happen to us, my answer is- "noone could be perfect without committing a mistake first." Or "true learning can only be attained if you are honest and sincere to admit your "faults, mistakes and wrongdoings first."

Our civilization ever since was a mistake this should be one thing for sure we must be able to admit. This is mainly a materialistic society and it is so easy to observe that we are surely on our way to "destruction" as what really went wrong is no longer important and significant because it will not solve the problem anyway. Nobody could help us and avert the destruction that will soon fall on mankind, such as these hunger and anger all over, the destruction of our "own planet earth" and others. Not even our religion or God because it is "we" who are the wrongdoers.

My philosophy is to start looking at "ourselves" now and never blame anybody, instead it is better to "blame yourself" and a good start will require us to be "honest and sincere" to our selves first and foremost. Because we may not be so sure if we can be honest and sincere to others and the best thing to do is to start it to our selves. In a materialistic society sad to say that we lost our being honest and sincere to ourslves that means, we also lost our "value as a human being" which was "created by a God, an Omnipotent Being for a particular purpose". The significances of having "honesty and sincerity to our selves" are as important as life itself that is, without them your life will be meaningless and wothless. As a whole you reduce your self into a similar level with "material" value which is a lot lower than the wild animals in the jungle. That "material value" which is lifeless and inanimate without honesty and sincerity to your self is like committing suicide. Of which the following will result, 1. Difficulties in sleeping well or soundly' 2. the inability to control your emotions, such as being irritable and stubborn that you are unable to listen about good things from others and will make you deaf and mute because something is wrong "within your self" but you do not know what to do and what exactly you want, you are helpless and miserable then, though you got all the wealth and it will even be worst if you are poor that you become violent due to the inability to control yourself; 3. you will have a lot of feelings of insecurities as you go along with the different situations you encounter in life and you may find sex as one of the outlets to temporarily relieve yourself aside from smoking and drinking up to taking addictive drugs, either of those outlets I mentioned in having various feelings of insecurities is a sign that you are not honest and sincere to your self; 4. when you don't want to be honest and sincere to your self a conflit may occur to you that you may consider your self as female when you are a male and vice versa. Homosexuality in my philosophy is absolutely wrong because you are deceiving your self that is when you are not truthful to your self. Manipulating the truth will produce a tremendous problem in your person because it will result to "losing your person" and to live a life out of your whims and desires. a "fake personality" as I call it because it is not the "true you". In that case, you will have various insecurities in life and is impossible to be happy and satisfied in life. it is not only 4, because there are so many. It is like searching for a "lost cause" that you don't have the exact direction and it is making you sick to the point of killing you little by little.

Consider honesty and sincerity as the door "for you to be able to realize the truth". And to enter that door will be your own personal decision only.

...A person who knows that he is wrong is intelligent...but continues to be so then he must be a dangerous man.

...A peson who knows that he is wrong and don't know how to correct his wrongness has made his first step for the truth...

...A person who knows that he is wrong and instead keeps on blaming others he must be an idiot....

...A person who knows that he is wrong but will always attempt to hide it and make it appear that he is not wrong be careful to this kind of a person, he is a deceiver....

...A person who knows that he is wrong....honestly and sincerely admits it, has finally opened the door and he will start to discover a lot of things about himself.

"Just be honest and sincere to your self because if you won't you will lost your self and become a false human being."
