Tao Stoic 157

"Auto-Mutilation, Master, what do you say of that? They cut holes in ears or noses, tattooing, or, like in the Old China, prevent the growth of feet, even deform the babies' heads."

"It only occurs in UN's, not in IN's. In those who 'are being lived' by others, who are UNder control, have no Free Control, not in those of the select group of IN's that are properly IN control of their thoughts, hence their conduct, their own behaviour. When one of the UN's speak to you, it would be in vain to try and teach him freedom, happiness, even science. You'd better not try."

"Are they beyond help then?"

"They do not want your help. Besides, when they drill holes in their own body, or willfully damage thousands of their own skincells, how easy would they take to drill a hole in your skull, just to please some ideology, or sperrit. READ a man first before you speak out freely to him."
