The Lost Ones

The oppressed one models no real power or self-mastery. It is fear that controls him.  He appears to have no control over his life. He believes his pain comes from others’ use of control; not from within himself. He uses his emotion of fear to deceive himself of his own hidden pain. His focus is on the fear of being controlled. He is terrified of non-compliance, therefore, he forces himself to comply. He is afraid of the ‘angry’ mind.  He believes in control and what it demands of him.  He deceives himself by what is blamed on him. He takes up little or no space, feels undeserving, is isolated, quiet & shy, and sees to it that he does not get in the way or upset the one who has anger.  If he does, he will perceive himself as disorderly & out-of-control.  The oppressed one may get threatened, or have something of ‘value’ taken away. The oppressed one is teaching & broadcasting: “Maintain fear: perpetuate the illusion of control & order”.
