Teachings Part 1
ORIGINS OF OUR TEACHINGS
Collected and Crafted by me, the goal is to strive and inspire members and non-members to live life and enjoy it to the best of our abilities here and now, and not be so concerned with the hereafter.
The reason is simple. If there is a hereafter for us, then its also shaped by how we have lived and died here and now. By this measure, it can be said, needless suffering doesn’t last forever—yet your effect on others will spread indefinitely long after you are gone, for better or worse.
Many aspects or features of Druwayu are shaped from my Gen X cultural history and developed attitude, as much as from far more ancient roots and modernization (seeing the good, the bad and the ugly of it all unappoligetically).
Additionally, the general teaching is that while the universe contains billions of galaxies, we observe intelligent life is extremely rare (especially among many human people), and this is realized by simple deduction through observation that we have not truly seen it in the physical sense beyond here on this planet from which we have arisen, and our fleeting individual and collective existences.
If we are to progress properly and continue to exist, get out planetary ecology back on track, cut out mono-farming, and truly grow, adapt and evolve, we must do so in harmony with nature and the universe without loosing are essential better human qualities, which only further emphasizes the importance and responsibility of human existence that is in our shared hands.
There are, however, main points to all of this to consider. That is what these collective teachings are about and none of them are issued as some invented "commandment" from non-human sources.
Embracing the Divine
Druwayu recognizes the One and Three as the divine ones, expressed transcendentally and imminently in every thread of reality. We bridge the unseen and the tangible, the mysterious and the known, wielding logic as our torch, forging a path of rational spirituality rather than passive belief, taking the good and bad as it comes and facing challenges head on, both individually and collectively.
Community Spirit
Logic, humor, and absurdity are harmonized in Druwayu’s bold pursuit of establishing personal meaning in the presence of the meaningless. Our members embrace self-reflection, open discourse, and the relentless hunger for knowledge. We reject blind opinions in favor of critical thinking and wisdom, ensuring open-hearted yet razor-sharp discussions. This is not a tradition of fragmentation, segregation or isolation.
Valuing Life and Freedom
Druwayu firmly separates church from state, recognizing that life is sacred in all its chaotic glory. Every breath, every being holds value, and the Church stands as a haven where freedom thrives, lifting each other up without oppressive control.
Celebrating Life
Life’s raw intensity—its joys, struggles, and contradictions—is embraced through observances such as the Holy Monday Night Feast, where community thrives in classic heavy metal, belly dancing, and the sacred arts may be included. This is not about hedonism, but harmony—a fierce embrace of joy that fuels the soul without reckless indulgence that can lead to life ending consequences and needless suffering.
Facing Life’s Struggles
Struggles shape strength. Druwayu promotes autonomous resilience, responsibility, and moral endurance, refusing to crumble under hardship. Pleasure is savored with restraint, ensuring ethical balance while facing life’s trials with fortitude rather than retreat.
Promoting Critical Thinking
We sharpen our minds through rational discourse, self-scrutiny, and unwavering examination of truth. Emotions are understood rather than controlled by impulse, allowing logic, not whim, to carve clarity from chaos. True critical thinking is not about telling one what to believe but how to think for themselves critically, logically, and rationally, so they may shape their own beliefs and thoughts. We also must be cautious.
Lifelong Learning
Our basic philosophy is you stop truly living if you refuse to keep learning. Druwayu is a quest for self-discovery, not blind obedience. Free will is a blade to be wielded wisely, tempered through philosophical rigor, personal growth, and real-world application, ensuring strength and control without stagnation.
Beyond the Noise
We strive to shatter destructive cycles—needless anger, blind fear, and hypocritical bias—emerging as clear-eyed seekers of truth, rejecting comforting illusions in favor of genuine wisdom and understanding.
Adapting and Evolving with Purpose
Druwayu’s morals, ethics, and teachings evolve, bending to time without breaking. This is not a static faith but a dynamic force, pushing individuals to grow, adapt, and refine their understanding of existence.
Rejection of Perfectionist Views
Perfectionism is a false ideal, and Druwayu defies it. We do not chase flawless facades—life is raw, unpredictable, and beautiful in its imperfection. True growth comes through trial and error, forging strength and resilience rather than chasing unrealistic ideals. Many confuse perfectionism with perfection and purity with perfectionism—but this is misguided.
Perfection is the ideal state of flawlessness or completeness, where something is considered without fault or further improvement. While often unattainable, it remains a valid concept in its own right. Druwayu does not reject perfection entirely, but acknowledges its limits as something one should not "strive for" as an unrealistic goal.
Perfectionism, however, is the relentless pursuit of perfection, leading to anxiety, dissatisfaction, and fear of failure. It forces people into unrealistic standards, preventing them from embracing imperfection as a natural part of growth or imposing false concepts of perfection blurring distinctions that inevitably prove to be destructive.
Druwayu rejects perfectionism and puritanical claims because they distort truth, create harmful expectations, and weaken personal integrity. Instead, we embrace honest self-reflection, allowing room for mistakes, progress, and personal evolution rather than rigid, unattainable ideals.
Recognition of Potential Alien Life:
Given the sheer vastness of the observable universe, the immense distances between galaxies, and the current scientific estimates of its age, it is plausible that intelligent life comparable to our own—whether less advanced, equivalent, or far beyond us technologically and cognitively—may be extremely rare, potentially existing only once or a few times per galaxy at any given epoch.
This possibility does not justify acceptance of unverified claims regarding “alien contact.” In the absence of reliable, reproducible evidence, such claims remain speculative and should not be treated as established fact. If we are early arrivals, or conversely among the last intelligent observers in a fading universe, that circumstance alone deepens the significance and fragility of all life and intelligence.
At the same time, rather than looking outward toward speculative external sources of meaning or salvation, the more grounded approach is to focus on internal and collective responsibility: improving ourselves individually and as a species, while maintaining a firm commitment to non-coercion—neither imposing upon others nor accepting imposed domination in return. In this sense, even if intelligent life exists elsewhere, it has no practical bearing on our ethical responsibilities here and now.
By embracing the Absurd, we accept that meaning may not be an inherent property of existence itself. However, meaning can still be created within it. We generate significance through thought, action, and experience, thereby producing meaning in a universe that does not appear to supply it inherently. This is not a claim of supremacy, but rather an acknowledgment that we are one outcome of cosmic processes—not their center or purpose—and there is nothing inherently wrong with accepting that reality.
Finally, based on current evidence, there is no verified scientific basis for claims of extraterrestrial visitation or contact. Reports categorized as UAPs or UFOs remain unexplained in some cases, but this does not constitute positive evidence of non-human intelligence. The most consistent and parsimonious explanations for such phenomena are advanced or classified human technologies, misidentification, or incomplete data. Until demonstrable evidence to the contrary is presented, this remains the most rational working assumption.
THREE RULES OF INDIVIDUALITY:
Druwayu emphasizes a harmony between skepticism, independent thought, and commitment to truth. They serve as guiding principles for Druans to navigate existence with intellectual integrity and personal responsibility.
1. REMAIN SKEPTICAL NOT CYNICAL:
Skepticism is a necessary filter that separates thoughtful inquiry from gullibility. Druwayu encourages questioning claims rather than blindly accepting them. However, skepticism must not devolve into cynicism, which falsely assumes that all people act purely out of self-interest. Cynicism leads to pessimism, which in turn fosters coldness, jealousy, and self-inflicted despair.
2.THINK FOR YOURSELF AND BE TRUTHFUL:
Druwayu values independent thought—forming valid, justifiable opinions without external coercion. Public statements, especially those demanding conformity, should be critically examined rather than accepted at face value. True freedom lies in rejecting imposed beliefs while also defending the rights of others to express themselves, even when their views are offensive or unpopular.
3. FOLLOW THE FACTS:
Truth is impersonal and objective—it does not change based on personal feelings or preferences. Druwayu urges rigorous investigation rather than passive belief. Claims must be challenged, and conclusions must be accepted, even if uncomfortable. Authority figures, crowds, and ideological movements should never dictate truth—only evidence and reason should guide one’s convictions.
PRIMARY TENETS
Druwayu establishes a foundation of integrity, responsibility, and communal support, shaping its ethical and philosophical framework.
Sanctity of Life – Every individual has dignity and the right to life, regardless of politics, wealth, age, gender, race, or ability. Prioritizing people over possessions. Support means creating opportunities, not just handouts.
Commitment to One Another – True community is built on mutual support, equality, and shared responsibilities across all social and ideological divides.
Self and Mutual Sufficiency – People deserve fair wages, access to necessities, education free from manipulation, and an economy that serves them; not the other way around.
Custodians of Life – Stewardship over life and resources is a duty, not an entitlement. Life must be preserved, utilized wisely, and expanded wherever possible.
SPIRITUAL/INTELLECTUAL GIFTS
We recognize spiritual gifts are many and open to all though they are often misrepresented and misunderstood. How one uses them if they authentically have any of them is the determining factor. Unfortunately the destructive use tends to be the most often focused on even when moist do not fully realize what it is they are observing, while others tend to “interpret” such things so as to pretend they conform to their own personal views or narratives. That will not be done here. They will be made clear and specific for everyone to know what they actually are:
Influence: This is considered one of the more powerful of spiritual gifts that can draw many in and cause them to favor one who has this power within them. Many leaders of different movements and nations have exhibited this power. Unfortunately, many have brought about mass destruction because of it as well. That is why it is so dangerous if used selfishly. If used properly it can just as easily counter such destruction and be a force to bring about true peace for many years.
Understanding: This is the gift of being able to know things as they are in the sense of their purpose, meaning and function and being able to make use of such things properly. This can be anything from words to some sort of technological device one has never seen or used previously and will be able to understand how to use it without instruction. Another word for this is comprehension of just about anything.
Counsel: This gift is the ability to properly guide others without telling them what to do, how to do whatever or how they should or shouldn’t feel, and instead properly guide them towards a better outcome in a given situation. It also works with Influence because those who have experienced counsel that is based in spiritual power often feel a compulsion to confess things they wouldn’t normally confess without knowing why and will often feel a deep seeded calm to their thoughts and emotions. Some might feel so relaxed by their voices the person will fall asleep.
Selflessness: This gift is usually called compassion or mercy and means that they are inspired or have been given the gift of empathy to both sense and recognize when someone is suffering even when it’s not apparent and will with the other gifts involved either know or have some sense of the cause of it. Such selfless ones will share in their burdens so as to lighten their loads so to speak until they are set free from that suffering or some help is able to be provided to free them from those burdens and potential needless suffering. Those who experience one with this gift tend to shed tears because they don’t judge anyone and accept them as they are and for who they are, feeling healed in some way.
Truth: This is another of the more powerful spiritual gifts as it allows one to sense and distinguish clearly with little to no effort if someone is telling the truth or trying to deceive them. Often those with this gift of truth in a sense see all things as they are, and not as they pretend to be. This also means one with this gift will have a natural aversion to anything that is spoken or speaks in a deceitful or misleading way. Such a person is more or less the ultimate lie detector.
Knowledge: This is a powerful gift tends to exist in some degree with Truth and Foretelling. One with this gift only has to look in the general direction of someone and will know all there is to be seen and known about someone, even things they don’t want to, without prior knowledge and leaves others feeling as though the eyes of one with this power is looking right into their very soul which can be extremely unnerving.
Fortitude: This gift is the power of endurance. This is often expressed in several ways such as the ability to withstand threats and conflicts, have the strength to overcome obstacles and barriers, both physical and nonphysical ones alike, and may even in some cases include resistance to physical injury or sickness as if there were some sort of invisible shield or armor enveloping them. As an emotional power it will move one to face any and all threats and challenges regardless of any personal fears and allow them to be suppressed so they fight on.
Helpfulness: This gift literally inspires one who has it to lend aid without necessarily knowing ahead of time where they are being moved to lend aid at or to whom the aid is intended but will more or less know when they get there. If it is an authentic gift, such people will show up at random or seemingly at random, and just to happen to be at the right place at the right time with the right solution and know they have this gift. Likewise, as suddenly as they show up, just as suddenly they leave without warning. In short, they enjoy and allow this gift to guide them where they must be guided to fulfill their duty. Many mistake them as being supernatural beings because of this power and the sensation such people radiate.
Foretelling: This is another of the more powerful gifts and literally means the ability to speak of things long before they occur with complete accuracy, which can range from hours to centuries depending on the scope and intensity of the vision. Unlike other so-called fortune-telling, also called prophecies, if it is a true gift, it is not obscured or expressed in arbitrary and vague ways set up for subjective interpretation by others. It’s clear, direct and very specific and can be disturbing as well, and it is also extremely rare.
Wisdom: This powerful gift is often misunderstood as the word wisdom is misapplied. The simple factor is it means complete clarity of mind, as is free from any and all confusion, especially as a gift, and means one with this gift will not be able to be misled or confused ad will know how to apply things properly to bring about the most productive end results. However, they can potentially confuse others easily.
Dedication: This gift of unwavering loyalty and reliability that motivates one to remain faithful and trustworthy without fail. It natural works with fortitude but on a deeper level as an inner drive to be dependable and to be someone that can be called upon at any moment as needed and when needed. It also helps one to be devoted completely to their particular path and reinforces ones sense of self worth and purpose. Such who have this gift do not have certainty about things. It is more of a factor that if they gave an oath, they mean it and won’t break it for anyone.
Wonders: This gift is one of the rarer and often random ones that come and go without any forewarning. For example, one might have a sudden knowledge of danger and be turned away from entering an elevator just for it to soon after go crashing down without them in it. Unusual or superhuman strength can occur so one can save someone else but never again be able to perform such a deed again. Someone might pull a gun on them, and they suddenly know how to disable and disarm the gun and the person using it without it firing. These things are what wonders are, also called miracles, and they can be shocking to the recipient and the one who has observed or experienced it occurring.
EIGHT-FOLD PATH OF SELF HONING:
Honing refers to the process of refining of improving skills, abilities, or qualities over time through practice and learning. This does not demand perfect adherence as that would be unrealistic and not our way as we reject perfectionist ideologies without rejecting the need and opportunity to strive towards improvement of abilities and options for oneself and others.
True Focus
This means knowing what is worth focusing on in order to find a proper and lasting solution to a challenge and not waste the mind on things that are irrelevant to the circumstance or situation of the moment and disregarding needless distractions that interfere with arriving at that solution. The stronger this ability becomes, the easier it becomes to pull away from needless distractions of the mind and the external. The downside is one can lose all awareness of their surroundings.
True Awareness
This means that even while focused on specific things to remain fully aware and present in the moment, being aware of what is occurring around you, and not becoming lost to all senses of the external or becoming trapped in their own mind as it were. It therefore must temper one’s focus while in turn not becoming overly distracted by all external occurrences and is therefore necessary. Without focus, however, one will be hyper aware of everything and can become lost in confusion and endless distractions.
True Thought
This means being mindful that all things have consequences as the dynamic of life are reciprocal, that comparison of self to others or other things is the theft of your own change for joy and contentment, even when we do not fully grasp the significant or the apparent insignificant of things that outlive us for better or worse, setting in motion in every moment the causation of all outcomes. Even our beliefs or lack of beliefs are part of this. True thought is therefore a full and constant state of mindfulness that every action, reaction, interaction and inaction is consequential, including one’s thoughts, words and choices.
True Choice
This can also be called consideration. True choice ultimately is selecting the most viable and beneficial things that are useful to you as well as others, and not just for you or just for others, while rejecting anything that is only achieved and enjoyed at the expense of others or yourself and rejecting all things that are clearly unnecessary and learning and recognizing what is necessary. This is then extended to the necessity of periodic abstinence, which simply means retraining oneself from overindulgence in anything.
Making choices such as when killing or injuring is needless or necessary, not taking what isn’t given or giving what has been given if stolen from someone else to the original owner, not engaging in sexual misconduct, enjoying what you will alone or with others so long as it is not at your expense or the expense of others, avoiding excess (materialistic or otherwise) and only accepting what you need, and freely letting go of what you do not need that and giving such to others who do need (true charity/kindness).
True Effort
This is personal and dedicated self determination to do whatsoever it is one sets about to accomplish and to overcome self-defeating emotions or thoughts that discourages one from making such efforts by defeating the and overcoming the discouragements. The fallacy of this is the perspective that it will necessary or is motivated by a strong desire for boundless happiness, or freedom from suffering. This also works in harmony with the previous four truths as the power of one’s will directed towards the ability to not give up while having a set goal or intention to be achieved, which in itself can also develop self-discipline to delay immediate gratification and resisting short term temptations in order to gain more and meet goals with more enduring longevity that is far more gratifying.
True Work
This is often expressed in the sense of work ethics or ethical work based on the choice of what one will do or will not do in regard to their overall livelihood and gains in such as profits. This also included not doing things haphazardly or without consideration, evaluating the benefits and detriments, the rewards and the losses, as well as what one embraces as their set of principles that determines the worth of their actions (also works) and make determinations in both their personal and professional lives. This is also reinforced by true effort. For example, true work includes making a choice to do or not do a job or to sell or not sell things that will cause needless pain or harm to others or oneself and avoiding things that are fundamentally inhumane.
Therefore, it is the totality of one’s deeds publicly and privately intended to be beneficial rather than detrimental and directed to continuously demonstrating one's dedication and reliability. It also means doing what needs to be done or accomplished on one hand and also applies in the sense of work you have actually done rather than only claimed to have done and not take claim to the work done by others. In the sense of honest work, it means any job, career or trade one has taken on that does not involve anything considered or defined s inhumane, illegal or unethical.
True Word
This is perhaps the most basic, simplest and also most underappreciated concept, despite it being essential to every aspect of one’s life. The most basic sense is what one says, or claims is demonstrable, consistent, verifiable, accurate, reasonable, logical, rational, genuine, authentic, enduring, and in accordance with clear and observable fact or reality. To put it in another simple way, the truth of one’s word determines their worthiness of trust, and this also must be in alignment with one’s true work, as in what one has actually done instead of claims to have done yet hasn’t.
This then aligns to the whole concept of one’s word and work wards their worth, because this al contributes to one’s true reputation over and above any blindly imposed and unreliable opinions or accusations. In this what one says in private is the same they say in public, and they have dedicated themselves to not engaging in willful acts of deception, misdirection, distortion or taking things out of content or imposing meaning based on assumed, presumed or speculative associations and pawn them off as facts when they are only hypothetical.
In the same sense, it also included admitting to mistakes, not making promises one does not intend to keep, giving no oath to something that isn’t true and that you know is not true, and knowing the difference between impersonal truth and personal experience, opinion or assumptions. It also carries with it a demand to seek the truth of the spoken or written word in proper meaning and context as well as saying what one means and mean what one says, and to avoid saying anything one does not mean and to clarify misunderstanding or allowing things to be blindly accepted at face value. True Word comes down to the simple and distinct points of fact or fiction, authentic or fake, subjective or objective.
True Kindness
This is not about pretending to be nice but is all about being reasonably and genuinely nice to people, and having compassion, not about imposing yourself upon others, regarding others with the same basic respect as well as expectations you have for yourself, treating others better than you may be treating yourself, as well as having a selfless urge or motivation to relieve the physical, mental, or emotional pains of others. It is also called being hospitable as in hospitality which is simply being genially friendly and may also include unconditional generous reception and entertainment of guests, visitors, or stranger. This can also be defined as politeness in one's attitude and behavior toward others. This also includes a sense of empathy which properly means awareness of and having a sense of the feelings of others.
All this means, to be truthful, simply has no basis in ulterior motivations, or out of requirement or expectation. It is instead kindness for the sake of kindness and nothing more, while also having a disposition of enjoying being kind simply to be kind. It does have its limits as unconditional does not mean limitless. One cannot show or express true kindness when one is only being kind because it is expected or demanded of them, or they seek some sort of praise or attention to "how much good they are doing" as more or less virtue signaling.
One is not expected to show any sense of kindness towards those who abuse them and repays your kindness with intentional and openly or privately disregard and insults them for their kindness by word and or deed. While one may forgive such things out of kindness one should not and is not obligated to remain kind, nor should tolerate such continuous insult and disregard because then they are being untruthful with themselves and others and needlessly suffering by it.
EIGHT POINTS OF AWARENESS
One may know a lot about different things yet know nothing about most things. Just because one is well informed or educated in anything in particular does not make them automatically an authority on other subjects for which they have not given the same amount of attention of research, learning and challenging the conclusions therein.
Nothing is meant to be perfect or last forever in this limited physical world in which we find ourselves, and anyone who proclaims or demands anyone to seek some sort of perfection as a form of purity or supremacy deceives you and themselves for perfection is stagnation and stagnation leads to extinction, and the goal in life is not to seek some sort of “perfect” balance, but rather natural harmony.
In essence we are already as one while also diverse in our individuality. Therefore, there is neither a need or justification to embrace or adhere to anything that proclaims that we must all seek some sort of “ultimate union” with something we are already in essence as one with as it becomes pointlessly redundant.
Anything that proclaims or demands we must all abalone out individuality and proclaim our individuality as illusory are not seeking to bring you any greater knowledge but rather ignorance in greater abundance making you a slave in mind to their own and denying you the natural right to individual will and independent thought.
Always take the time to examine your beliefs to make sure they are truly your own and not merely the assimilation of a collective of the imposed and demanded beliefs and whims of others own self justifications at your expense. If you do not believe in something, seek to determine why you do not. If you cannot be honest with yourself, you are useless and cannot be honest with others and likewise will be too weak of personal will to oppose the demands of others. Indeed, a strong mind is essential to all aspects of yourself. If necessary, abandon everything and reinvent yourself for yourself instead of wasting time trying to “find yourself” as if you misplaced it under a bed or in a bush
Change for the sake of change is seldom a positive or beneficial change, and more often than not, especially when forced and imposed, will inevitably lead to the destruction of those willingly succumbing to such things, forced to endure such things and those who imposed such things to begin with. Therefore, only change what is no longer beneficial or productive and preserve that which is, for that is the way of nature regardless of anyone’s objection or opinion about such things.
It does not matter if you think a leader is good or bad. If you do not question them both you are already their mutual mental slave. Hold both to the same standards you would hold yourself and others to. If you don’t, you have no cause to complain about anything.
Having an open mind does not mean having a mind without the filter of scrutiny. Those who proclaim you lack an open mind as a “bad thing” is a waste of your time because they have already deceived themselves. Truly the most dangerous yet effective form of brainwashing and indoctrination is self-indoctrination and self-brainwashing by way of the old mental poison of confirmation bias.
NINE ERRORS OF SELF
Narcissism
Sometimes called being pretentious, it is also false pride, which is of an inflated sense of self. It includes but is not limited to acting like you know more than you really do, or like you're more important than you really are, characterized by having an excessive preoccupation with oneself and one's own needs to the exclusion of and at the expense of others. It is exhibited most clearly by bragging and boasting about oneself coupled with their arrogance and conceit.
It is truly the essence of greed and selfishness in its worst possible expression. It is often used as self-justification and for inventing excuses to behave and act selfishly or abusively, as well as to knowingly mislead and deceive others into believing they are the ones who are inadequate and their frustrations with a narcissist is because they are the ones making everything about themselves and inconsiderate. It’s a tactic a narcissist uses to control others.
Solipsism
Another companion of the first two, it boils down to the sense that only your own mind is real and has any validity and anything external to your mind or sensibilities are either unreal or irrelevant because any knowledge outside of one’s own mind or perspective is uncertain. It is often disguised in the terminology of “personal truth” which is not truth in and of itself but subjective rather than objective opinion based on personal experience and often an erroneous interpretation of those experiences.
Though it sounds as a reasonable and persuasive argument that only your own mind is real ad you cannot be certain of the reality of the minds of other in the solitude of oneself locked away in a room, it gives no reliable or positive justification for it to be anything more than objectively nonsensical and is a claim the world revolves around them alone. All knowledge does not come from one’s own mind. If it did, they could know and accomplish anything without learning.
Cowardice
Cowardice is not about being ‘afraid.’ While fear may be a part of it, true cowardice is refusal to face challenges head on and admit to one’s wrongs and face the consequences. It can often lead to the betrayal of others such as confidential trust, abandonment of them at the first opportunity to save one’s own neck and leaving others to suffer in their place, and setting others up to be placed in danger so the coward doesn’t have to, wherein a true coward becomes a traitor who will gain the trust of others only to betray them later and are unworthy of trust and completely unreliable.
Cowards also tend to be bullies to those they know or believe won’t or can’t fight back and so verbally, mentally, emotionally and physically abuses them but will often run at the first sign of someone they know or recognize as more than willing and able to fight back and defend those whom they are being abusive to and threatening. One should strive to never be a treacherous coward and always ready to stand against them as they also tend to pretend to be victims when they are the ones causing the problems.
Self Deceit
Once more, it’s allied with the previous two Errors of Self. Often not so clearly stated, Self-deception is a process of denying or rationalizing away the relevance, significance, or importance of opposing evidence and logical arguments as well as but not limited to demonstrable facts beyond mere opinions or hypotheses. Indeed, it can also be called Willful Ignorance wherein one is being stupid on purpose. Its knowing better and pretending you do not and continually pretending a lack of knowledge till one convinces themselves of the truth of their ignorance.
It then becomes an act of deceit by proceeding to convincing oneself there is no real impersonal truth so that one does not, will not and sees no need to acknowledge their deception or their errors and can then blame it all on others so as to never truly take any sense of personal responsibility in the process. It all comes down to intentionally avoiding information about the negative consequences of actions, rejecting information one knows to be true and pretending it doesn’t exist or doesn’t matter. It also serves as an excuse for others willfully and blindly going along with whatever they are told and an excuse to blame someone else when confronted.
Blind Conformity
It’s fine to conform knowingly in a sense of being co-supportive and mutually beneficial. However, blind conformity is simply submitting without question to the will, demands and expectations of perceived leaders and peers and their particular whims without challenge or question. It is otherwise called a bandwagon syndrome in which people do something primarily because other people are doing it, regardless of their own beliefs, which they may ignore or override. This tendency of people to align their beliefs and behaviors with those of a group is also called a herd mentality.
This occurs even when one does not truly agree with such as a group’s stance on something but goes along with it anyways out of expectation. As such, blind conformity in the sense of “going with the flow’ to avoid altering its course. It becomes a condition of one giving up their independence and submitting to the whims and arrogance of others, more often to one’s up detriment all the while pretending to be free to express oneself and exercise their independent will and natural rights of autonomous self-determination.
Historic Revisionism
History is not the right of anyone to re-write or erase regardless of if it is considered good or bad. The good gives us our inspiration to strive for the better, and the bad teaches us what not to repeat and to avoid. A people without a past and with a false teaching about actual history which is itself and act of deception and often provides keys to brainwashing people into accepting something as new and different that isn’t but simply a repackaging of the same deceptions, same abuses and same cruelty that lead to its abandonment in the first place.
That is the whole point of preserving history accurately and uncovering lost history so that we are not doomed to repeat it. If it doesn’t make you uncomfortable you never learn anything that should be avoided. If it angers your, than you are either listening and learning, or making an excuse to justify your own bias and pettiness. We must never succumb to participating in the suppression or falsification of history regardless if we like it or not. It’s not there for your personal comfort and self-interests. Also, a people without a past often find they have no future. We must never impose presentism onto the past.
Monopolizing Everything
While this is the one authentic and only actual Druwayu, many identities and organizations focus on pointless and misguided efforts to establish a monopoly on anything and everything they try to take claim to that does not actually belong to anyone. We must therefore avoid trying to claim such a monopolization of things we do share in common with others and not try to falsely absorb things that are simply incompatible with Druwayu as a whole which does have an underlining consistency and structure, even though most superficial reviews tend to skip over those facts.
Furthermore, another core tendency of such monopolies is to suppress, silence, and destroy any and all competition and consume whatever is left over from that act of imposed conquest. As we do not seek to impose ourselves or Druwayu on anyone else and instead simply share it with others to accept or reject as they will, we must not yield ourselves or Druwayu to be imposed upon by anyone or anything.
Tyrannical Authoritarianism
Being an authority on a subject and an author of concepts is not in itself wrong. Being recognized with an invested dirty and therefore authority to administer specific laws and policies as agreed upon by the people as a whole on majority vote and choosing such persons based on their merits alone is reasonable. However, Tyrannical Authoritarianism is often expressed as Social Darwinism and Marxism which is detrimental and destructive to all who embrace such concepts. For clarification:
Social Darwinism promotes the view that the strong should see their wealth, power and authority increase, and the perceived weak should see their wealth, power and authority increase as a natural consequence of selective competition, and more or less false into the perception that might makes right and nothing else and is supported by Marxism.
Marxism is both socialist and communist. Even in its new and fashionable incarnations, which are themselves based in deception, such things do e not, have not and cannot fulfill people’s economic needs or their yearning for freedom because it places all wealth and it distribution in the hands of the state, removes incentives for individual efforts to compete which is necessary for a healthy culture and economy, and does not account for different needs of different people who are only allotted the same specific amounts of wealth, often at the bare minimal of survival and well below the poverty status.
The problems with these are always clear!
It always favors state control over the economy which in turn means it favors the already wealthy and therefore “politically and financially strong and powerful.”
Individuals have to submit to central economic planning of those who control the state regardless of their clear and often unrestrained incompetence and nepotism.
It also regards the concept of individual human beings having inherent dignity and right to autonomous self-determination as flawed and dangerous and something that must be suppressed, silenced and crushed at all costs.
It seeks to completely splits the culture into distinct and opposing, clashing classes of the wealthy oppressors and the and the poverty stricken oppressed.
This then quickly turns into a society being reduced into a totalitarian police state where there are no freedoms, just compliance, and failure to comply is enough grounds for immediate execution without question, trial or challenge, at least for the oppressed.
Often the enforcers are themselves the oppressed but gain a slightly better status or at least living situation by being paid and provided for in some way as long as they abide by their duties but do not truly own anything themselves.
Failure to enforce also leads to an immediate execution by one’s own peers regardless of the lack of ethics or moral compass because all are merely cattle to serve the whims of those in positions of authority and maintaining the illusions of power.
Self-Abuse
It is as it sounds. It is abusing oneself in any manner such as condemning oneself as worthless, of no importance, less important than everyone else and can be considered the extreme opposite of narcissism. This overall is a general lack of a sense of value or worth in one’s own existence and can often times be taken to the extremes of self-injury with or without suicidal intentions and may also result in taking unnecessary risks to health and life, including engaging in unsafe sexual practices and placing any sense of worth based on the acceptance of others.
It can also result in other forms of self-destructive behavior that has developed by intent and has become a habit one has sank into and can be things that might not seem to be self-destructive at first, such as going to parties all the time, excessive drinking, having frequent and multiple sexual partners, taking risks known to be dangerous and at times with little to no concern if others are present and may be potentially harmed or killed as a result of their actions, such as driving at excessive speeds at night without any vehicle lights on in the wrong lane on purpose. One who succumbs to such things self comes back from it.
