L’essentiel est invisible pour les yeux.

I’d like to ask you a question: what makes us, human, alive? Or what controls human? My answer is “Unconsciousness”. Physically “autonomic nervous system” is in charge of basic functions of body such as heart beating, breathing, nerves, and all organs; you don’t how to move your heart beating?! Oh you may say when you meet someone you love, your heart beats faster?! Another question: Can you explain why you love that person? You can’t because Love is controlled by unconsciousness, and Love is a feeling in your mind, which is actually “fiction”. And that’s why you could hate that person when broken heart – the end of the fiction. So why you don’t know the reason you broke up with your partner? Because your unconsciousness finds something different from a “delusion” in your mind such as an image of your partner, namely Love itself is a delusion. In essence we, human beings, cannot control ourselves and are controlled by unconsciousness physically and mentally. 

Interestingly enough, people can control other people. You would know the words “mind control”, “brainwashing”, but no “heart control” and “heartwashing”. So why you can control mind and brain and cannot control heart? I would say that “mind” is something that you artificially create, namely “delusion” while “heart” is unconsciousness itself. When other people change delusions behind mind by imprinting, they can control others, while they can’t control unconsciousness itself, so heart control or heartwashing can be realized from outside by others. So if you talk to heart of people, you can understand each other; if you are true to your heart, your heart will be true to you. That is why children are good at hunch, intuition, and instinct?! That’s why they can see fairy with their heart?!

 Let me talk about something cynical and uncomfortable. You can also apply the same idea for “International Development”, namely “the essential is invisible to the eyes of ordinary people”. Because we are all brainwashed and the truth is hidden by the hands of “some people”. The real evil never shows up in public and does something malicious invisibly like “parasite”. There would be a physical evil as an entity existing in layers of society, however the real evil is not “them” but the evil living in “their” mind, because they’re also brainwashed by the values they follow. Namely they’re just blind and deaf. In sum, we can change their delusions by talking to their unconsciousness hidden behind their evil mind. This is the key to make International Development successful.

Sorry for the digression. Rafiatu is always happy and full of happiness. Her mind and heart consists of happiness, pleasure, joy, and all kinds of positive feelings, so her happiness is always overflowing from her heart, which fills her mind as well. She can unconsciously smile with small matters in every day life. If you try to squeeze your happiness from your mind with the help of things, money, social values, you would get tired at the end of the day and would be brainwashed by someone else because you can’t have gold medal everyday in life. If small happiness overflows from your heart, you don’t even notice “happy”. There are some disadvantages for the deaf caused by the lack of hearing sense, but spirit, endeavor, dream, idea, thinking, love, kindness, happiness, heart, mind, all these human essentials are the same as we have. They are deaf and have disability, but they can be being happy; with  or without disability, God is fair enough to give us happiness indeed.

Lastly, what troublesome is that the essentials are not necessarily always good, but bad aspects of human are also invisible: malice, evil, mean, deceive, betrayal, hypocrisy, etc. so please open your “eyes of heart”, not eyes of mind, to see the world properly.
