Closed-minded People

There are alot of closed-minded people everywhere. I have a chatfriend from Scotland who claims Sonic is real, and she doesn't accept the fact that Sonic is fiction. I have a acquaintant who is sadomasochistic who has no desire to hear what other has to say.

Enlightenment vs. Resistance.

I have been resisting to see their point that they may say that I am close-minded from their perspective. The only way is to acknowledge and accept them for who they are. In one of the messages of the latter I described in the 1st paragraph, I felt quite disturbed and that made me think, that I was in fact in the very same perspective of those reader who read these posts when I write negative thoughts.

The more you change them, the more they are closed-minded. They do not accept any help or inspirations from others because they realize that they want to assert the fact that they are who they are and nothing will change them aside from themselves.

All this time, I have been more manipulative than helping, which is horrible. Even you try your best to enlighten these people, it will never work. This is the reason why these people have very few friends. I admit that I was sometimes close-minded, but not all the time.

I hate being problematic to other people, I am just concerned and empathetic to other people. When will they open their hearts and minds and realize what kind of person they are? I don't know. They lack self-reflection and careful introspection. So, let me say to those people who are dealing with close-minded people, ACCEPT THEM as part of the society. Even you don't like them like this, they will not change unless they allowed themselves to and powerfully defend themselves.

Alot of people do not acknowledge the other perspectives, because they think that their perspective is the most important which is inconsiderate and asymmetric. I do this alot and never realized it. Really!

This closed-mindedness develops ignorance. They are trying to deny the facts and truths. They are not skeptics.

Ignorance and Skepticism are different. Ignorance is illogical while, Skepticism is logical. They have this fantasy to stay in one ground for a very long time without external interventions. This makes them safe. If they are intervened by someone they will get hyperactively defensive with that person. They are defending their beliefs, their stature and their personality from undesired manipulators.

So, this is why they are closed-minded. Let them experience the realization of enlightenment themselves, only then, they will see the authentic happiness. In short. Let them be until they open up.
