What motivates a man who teases a female bear and her cubs with food?
What does the woman think when choosing an elk for a selfie partner?
When you finish reading it and find out what it means, you will be surprised.
The power of humans lies in their ability to create new worlds.
Myths, rituals, ideologies, games, corporations, and social networks.
Yet, this ability also creates a dangerous vulnerability.
Living in a man-made world, people forget about the real world.
Worse still, they try to bend reality to their fantasies.
Sooner or later, this ends in trauma or catastrophe.
Animals, carriers of the Laws of Nature, show humans their place.
And in a moment, precious illusions of man crumble to pieces.
Objective reality can no longer be ignored.
This is an act of symbolic castration, as a psychoanalyst would put it.
A kind of healing cauterization of an inflated pride.
The beasts, the elements and gravity perform the function of the therapist.
So how can we protect ourselves or avoid shocks and misfortune?
We need to consciously and voluntarily seek to re-engage with Reality.
For example, look for those who tell you the truth kindly but firmly.
Yours sincerely,
