Most need answers, not questions.

Even more: Answers, not Questions.

After happening to hear it on the classical music broadcast on a Soviet radio in north-west central Moscow during the winter of 1994/95, and then having the good fortune to go and listen to this movement during the then-inexpensive concerts in the Moscow Conservatory… for hours, especially during dark winter days, and weeks, and months, in fact years… the main elements of this music – whatever they be – helped keep my soul reconciled and sane.

Most people in societies share the unquestioneds.

Gravitas is undemocratic.

Give them national pride, for they (will) have no power.

Eg.

Few are free – and most do not know so – from being their nationalities… of eg “American” or “Russian”… yet these identities come to them from outside: tradition, society, the government… Limitations of personal identity, and development.

Are all of the philosophies, religions, theologies,… in essence in reality Man searching outwardly for his Self? 😳

If one knew fully well all that in one’s life not new under the sun…would one succumb to ennui or Weltschmertz?

Knowing as few do that “news” is the plural of “new”, when one reads ones personal insights recorded in eg 1865… such does give some circumspection and insight as to the new and old in the passions of one’s current day, life and world.
