Predator and Prey

Food for thought?

'Something that this one has learnt in studies of Asetianism, reflections upon spiritual psychology, in the psychologically dynamic interrelationship between "predator" and "prey" is that, quite obviously, a prey, so called - and these are very noteworthy alternative terms for psychological makeup - is more scattered, lost and insecure, concealing inner fears often through psychological projection and acting pretentiously.

The predator on the other hand does not. They own themselves. Silence is a dangerous tool in their arsenal and, like the Asetians, they do not yield to criticism or outside opinion. The interesting paradox, however, is that if you obsess about being a predator you probably are not but more of a prey under the same pretentiousness from insecurities whereas recognising how much of a prey you actually are turns you towards predatory advantage, in these psychological terms, and the tables turn.

These are all elements I have witnessed within myself. [...] And again, silence is a dangerous tool; a mighty weapon of the hunter of wisdom in taking down the preys of foolishness. This analogy I apply on an internal level towards the shifting of mindset from prey to predator.

[Any further thoughts? I think this might open up a potentially good discussion because of its relevance in psychology, especially around these circles of the vampire community.]'

It makes me think about the word "prey." Often those who are obsessed with being seen as a predator are good at showing their weaknesses, thus making themselves prey. It leads me to my real point (and sorry if I strayed a bit off topic here-) which is that if someone is utterly obsessed to the point of fervent single-mindedness with being seen as a vampire, it's one of the quickest ways to tell that they are not a vampire. For example: is a real scientist, let's say someone with a very high level of education, understanding and potential to cause change, obsessed with taking to the internet almost daily and writing things like "hey guys, I'm a scientist. Did you hear that I'm a scientist? Check out how much of a scientist I am. Please leave a like. SCIENCE. Check out my new video where I tell you I'm a great scientist. And my 800 videos before it."

Have you ever heard of the - I think south Indian - story of the blindfolded men and an elephant? No one of us sees the full reality, or everything all at once. Our perspectives are like that. One should never make the mistake of assuming too much about others or about things in general, or making misjudgements, without actually knowing, but remain humble in learning and seeking to understand...

But these humans actually believe they are vampires.....but they have no real basis for that....but they really believe their intuition. Do you think the possibility might exist that the whole vampire thing was created by the real Vampires, and we all know what that might be, in that they promoted this whole phony, fake vampire bit to furnish a bunch of prey for their own use? hehehe.
