Chapter Six
Intense Happiness

Whenever one experiences an emotion, it is a good idea to focus one's awareness on that emotion or combination of emotions. By doing this, one can collect the pleasures of positive emotions. One can also discover and then resolve the problems causing negative emotions. By repeatedly focusing on one's emotions, one will habituate this action. Then, as various emotions arise, one will automatically look at them, which enables one to better understand one's emotional self.

The idea of buying or consuming one's way to happiness is fallacious because it contradicts the nature of man. Human beings need to consistently produce values for self and other people in order to experience abiding happiness.

Man has to consume values such as food, homes, and transportation to survive. But it does not follow that man would be happier if he consumed more values than he produced. He would not; this would lead to incompetence and unhappiness. The only way to experience rich, abiding happiness is to have earned it through consistent value production.

Emotionally healthy individuals experience times of insecurity. This feeling arises when one initiates action that stretches oneself beyond one's comfort zone. When one is in this initial period of growth, one usually makes mistakes and thus feels temporary insecurity, which is completely natural.

Unnatural insecurity, by contrast, is an all-pervasive emotional background in the person who fears and resists change. In such a person who resists change, unnatural insecurity becomes his or her normal experience—highlighted with only brief interludes of security.

Those people who accept change and seek growth maintain an underlying sense of safety even during times of natural insecurity. They know that, like a storm, their insecurity will pass.

Rationality is man's prime virtue. Yet, emotions can often be irrational. Thus, one could conclude that emotions are bad or irrelevant or should be denied. But if one dismisses emotions as not valuable and one represses them, one loses a vital part of conscious life. That vital part is the experience of joy and pleasure.

Emotions exist for a purpose and are an inherent part of consciousness. They are indicators of danger (the feeling of pain) and security (the feeling of comfort). While emotions are not guides to action, they could point one in the direction for further investigation. But one first has to be in touch with one's emotions. One has to be able to feel them, however subtle or imposing. Then one has to acknowledge that they are real. One has to accept them as real, perhaps by thinking, "Okay, now I'm feeling such and such emotion. I'm going to focus my attention on it and see where it leads. I'll own this part of myself, even if it's a temporary inconvenience—even if I don't like where it's going. I know that this feeling will pass and I'll be fine."

By holding one's emotional self as a real value, one remains open to life's greatest experiences. Those experiences include excitement, happiness, romantic love and esthetic pleasures.

Human beings are sexual beings. But individuals need to learn the art of sexual loving. Like anything of value, they need to exert conscious effort to learn how to be sexually attractive, sexually stimulating, and sexually excitable. When a person develops sexual skills, he or she knows how to turn on his or her love partner. Moreover, sex excites such a person.

Repressing, denying, and shaming sex only harms oneself and others. Since sex is a natural, healthy part of human life, no one needs to deny that part of him or herself. Everyone can benefit by becoming sexually turned-on.

Having sex with others is not when many people first become sexually turned-on. Usually, individuals first become sexually turned-on through sexual fantasies and masturbation. Autoerotica is how many people first become sexually turned-on. And autoerotica or masturbation begins very early in life, perhaps around age two or three. Tragically, in the upside-down world, masturbation is shunned or attacked.

A lot of people have hang-ups regarding masturbation. Some of these hang-ups come from their own thinking errors. But many masturbation hang-ups come from myths, distortions, misinformation, and lies floating throughout the anticivilization, which block people from enjoying masturbation. And this prevents them from becoming sexually turned-on. As a result, many people do not achieve the full pleasures available to conscious beings. As a consequence, they are more easily controlled, manipulated, duped, and drained by bogus authorities.

Each person needs to clear away any misinformation about masturbation in one's mind. Each person then needs to learn healthy approaches to masturbation so he or she can engage in it guiltlessly and pleasurably. Then each such person will become aware of his or her own sexual nature, preferences, and dislikes. Those who do this become sexually turned-on. And that enables one to turn-on one's partner, as well as be turned-on by one's partner.

Thinking in principles unleashes the full power available to conscious beings. By accurately thinking in principles, one can understand anything in existence. Moreover, one can generate knowledge without limits.

On a personal level, one can gain great insights into oneself and one's relationship to the world by thinking in principles about one's emotions. For example, those who do not think in principles—those who remain concrete-bound—in the realm of emotions have a difficult time separating what they feel from the outside world. They can easily believe that because they are feeling sad, the world is a sad place. Or, if they are feeling gloomy, they think the world has turned gloomy. But, in reality, the world does not change along with one's emotions; the world does not correspond to one's feelings. The world continues just as it is regardless of what one might be feeling at any moment.

When one learns to think in principles about emotions, one can separate one's feelings from what is happening in the outside world. This is not easy to do at first, but it is valuable. First, when one is feeling an emotion or combination of emotions, one needs to acknowledge that one really is feeling them. Each emotion one feels is real and needs to be accepted as real. Then, while allowing one's self to feel emotions, one can think about the difference between metaphysics and epistemology—the difference between reality and consciousness. If one holds an implicit or explicit "primacy of existence" philosophy (i.e., the mind integrates but does not create reality), one will grasp that one's emotions, which are an aspect of consciousness, are not influencing or changing reality at all.

By raising one's consciousness from the concrete-bound level of awareness through the conceptual level of awareness and into wide-open principled thinking, one will put one's emotions in their proper perspective. Suddenly, one will understand that emotions exist to let one experience happiness and warn oneself of harmful situations. One will know that what one is feeling has little to do with the way the world is. One will realize that one can feel sad at a certain moment, then feel pain later, and then feel happy after that. But one knows that the world does not and cannot shift as sporadically as one's feelings might.

What one feels can originate from things in the world, such as from a threatening situation or a joyous event. But, one's feelings also originate from internal memories, thoughts, mental images, desires, and basic premises about life. Thus, in many cases, what one feels can have little or nothing to do with the state of the world. By understanding this point, one will be relieved to know that the world does not become a fearful place, or a sad place, or a lonely place—even though one might be feeling fearful, sad, or lonely. One simply weathers the emotional storms until they blow past.

The moral purpose of life is to achieve abiding happiness. And conscious beings experience happiness through emotions. But in order to experience happiness, a person needs to be open to experiencing all his or her emotions, including negative emotions.

Conscious life consists of both positive and negative emotions. Positive emotions include happiness, guiltless pleasure, rapture, sexual love, compassion, and others. Negative emotions include sadness, guilt, pain, misery, hatred, disgust, and others. The key to experiencing happiness when it wells up inside oneself is to allow one's self to experience all one's emotions at all times—no matter how much pain, fear, or guilt one may feel at any given moment.

Since no other form of life on earth has free will or volition, no other animal can choose to repress or express one's emotions. But man has volition, and he can choose to repress or express his emotions. Repression, once it becomes a habit, will occur automatically—beneath one's awareness. However, one can become aware of what is happening and correct the problem.

Repression prevents one from feeling one's emotions: one represses or drives one's emotions out of one's conscious awareness and into one's subconscious. There, repressed emotions accumulate and block one's subconscious integrating mechanism, which impedes one's capacity for integrated thinking.

Expression, on the other hand, is the process of letting one experience one's emotions. In expression, no attempt is made to deny or repress one's true feelings and emotions. One works through one's emotions, whether positive or negative, and one's mind remains free and clear of repressed material.

Expressing one's emotions does not mean being controlled by one's emotions or revealing one's emotions to everyone. In this context, expression of emotions means that one allows oneself to fully feel the emotions running through one's emotional self. One may choose to give outward expression to these emotions, such as crying out loud. Or, if necessary, one may remain aware of one's feelings but refrain from crying because of external circumstances. One might choose to cry and grieve at a more appropriate time.

So, the goal is to express one's emotions, at least to oneself. This means not repressing one's emotions. Emotional expression becomes habit forming. And this is a healthy habit that leaves one's mind clear, lets one learn more about oneself, and allows one to feel happiness more often.

If one acquires things honestly—through one's own effort, getting things can be a joy. Of course, if one's primary motive is to have things, one will eventually feel empty. Getting and having things is not the source of abiding happiness.

The source of abiding happiness and prosperity is continuous value production. Yet, getting what one wants—fulfilling one's desires—can offer intense feelings of joy. Because continuous value production is hard work, people need pleasurable experiences in order to sustain value production. Romantic love and art certainly offer these pleasurable experiences. Fulfilling one's desires—such as a fabulous vacation, car, or house—also offers these pleasurable experiences.

For example, one might have been working very hard for several years. Everything has been going well, and one decides to buy oneself a new boat. This is something that one has always wanted. And one chooses to purchase it now.

When one finally gets it, one probably will feel thrilled. Such short-term pleasures are valid and fully consistent with the nature of man. One feels initial excitement on first acquiring the "gift to oneself." Then one enjoys the boat throughout the years. Such pleasure does not come from harming oneself or anyone else. This is a natural pleasure that can spur one on to produce evermore values for self, others, and civilization.

Human beings have the ability to transfer feelings through oral and written communications. In oral communication, one person can transfer negative feelings to another person by raising his voice, looking mean, and using harsh words. Such negative communication can induce feelings of guilt, agitation, hatred, pain, or sadness in the listener. This kind of communication usually is destructive.

Oral communication can also be used to transfer positive feelings to another person. One person can talk calmly, be sincere, and use benevolent words to another person. Such positive communication can induce feelings of innocence, harmony, love, pleasure, or happiness in the listener.

In written communications, the writer can transfer either positive or negative feelings to the reader. One can do this through the use of key words, the structure of sentences, and the repetitive use of certain words.

For example, using words such as murder, death, blood, terror, crime, hostility, and war, a writer can induce negative feelings in the reader. To magnify these feelings, the writer can repeatedly use these words and end his sentences with these harsh words. Readers will implicitly or explicitly feel bad after reading such material. Many journalists use these techniques to produce their destructive news reports.

A writer can also use positive words such as life, love, health, vitality, security, harmony, and peace to induce positive feelings in the reader. Through the repeated use of such words, readers will have good feelings after reading such material. Many authors of self-help books use these techniques to produce life-enhancing products.

Mystics have for eons advanced the notion that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. In essence, they say that art is subjective. By cleverly promoting art as subjective, the criminal mind can proceed to wipe out valid art while promoting irrational art. Thus, with the false notion "art is subjective" woven through everyone's mind, mystics and criminal-minded people can attack and destroy great art with impunity. While everyone is befuddled by this fallacy, nihilists march in and self-righteously denounce and smash invaluable works of art—from van Gogh's Starry Night to Beethoven's Symphony #5.

Even more insidious is the fallacy that happiness is subjective. Mystics have cleverly promoted the specious notion that happiness comes from following one's arbitrary feelings. Happiness, they say, varies from person to person; one should follow one's intuition or feelings in order to reach happiness.

In fact, the achievement of happiness is objective. Reality, concepts, ethics, values, law, justice, and art are also objective. But because of the traditional mind's grip on planet Earth for the last three millennia, countless spurious notions befuddle most people.

The achievement of happiness is objective. How can that be? The process of attaining happiness is the same for every person: happiness comes from the achievement of one's values.

For example, suppose a man values (1) productive work, (2) financial independence, and (3) family. Say he works hard for many years to achieve his values. When he makes a great leap forward in his productive work, he feels happy. When he becomes financially independent, he feels happy. And so on. The higher the value he achieves, the happier he feels. The opposite also applies; if he loses a value, he feels sad.

Yes, people have different values. Thus, one person's achievement of romance might make her feel incredibly happy, while another person's achievement of wealth might make him feel incredibly happy. But the process of achieving happiness is the same for all people. That process consists of achieving one's values.

Young children do not need emotional healing; they are uncorrupted and innocent. They have not yet been drawn into the upside-down world now infesting planet Earth. But every child is inevitably drawn into the upside-down world: the anticivilization. As each child grows into an adult, he or she becomes corrupted—spiritually and physically.

Emotional healing enables one to achieve a healthy psychology. Once an adult heals his or her emotional wounds, that person is free to develop genuine self-esteem and abiding happiness. But with emotional problems locked within, a person will not build genuine self-esteem and happiness. Such emotional sickness will eventually undermine that person's efforts to build a really great life.

There are two sources of emotional wounds. The first is external, such as abandonment, physical abuse, or sexual abuse. The second is internal, such as denial and repression of one's emotions.

External sources of emotional wounds typically occur during youth, when one is dependent on parents and other adults. As such, the young child is helpless to defend against these evils. Internal sources of emotional wounds typically occur in adulthood, when one becomes an independent person. Such an independent person may never have learned how to properly handle his or her emotions. This person may deny or repress not only painful feelings, but also pleasant feelings.

The good news is that a person can eliminate emotional wounds. How?

The first step to emotional healing begins with careful introspection. Introspection is the starting point for internal healing. One looks inside oneself. One directs one's awareness on what one is thinking and feeling by first becoming relaxed, calm, motionless. Almost in a meditative state, one "listens" to what is happening inside oneself. After doing this on a few different occasions, one will begin to notice patterns of thought and feeling that are unique to one's self. By writing these down, one can keep track of them and modify them as one gains new self-knowledge. Eventually, one will become conscious of what is happening inside one's self.

The next step to emotional healing is to take action on what one discovers. If one finds an all-pervasive anxiety or some other uncomfortable internal situation, one can work to eliminate it. By going to see a rational psychotherapist, or getting Dianetics Auditing, or doing sentence completion exercises, one will eventually uncover any emotional sickness that might be buried within.

In some cases, emotional pain is rooted so deep and is so painful that the person refuses to consciously acknowledge that he or she has emotional troubles. But while doing emotional healing exercises, the person may reveal to himself or herself an emotional wound that was buried for years or decades—perhaps since childhood or adolescence. When one uncovers emotional wounds, one can work through them to eliminate them from one's psyche. After one does this, one's mind will be clear and one's spirit will soar.

The last step is to consciously learn how to deal with one's emotions in a healthy manner. Through valid counseling or study, one can learn how to acknowledge, accept, and experience every emotion one feels. This has two major benefits. First, one prevents future emotional wounds by working through one's emotional pain when it arises. And second, one allows oneself to fully experience positive emotions—especially love and happiness.

Dealing with emotions, like thinking, is a skill that each person has to learn. Neither of these skills arises automatically within the human organism. Failure to develop such skills could mean a lifetime of pain or even premature death. But by developing these skills, one can achieve lifelong prosperity and happiness.

Emotionalism occurs when a person lets his or her emotions dictate actions, regardless of reality. Self-control is when a person acknowledges his or her emotions, but takes actions based on his or her rational thinking.

Emotionalism and self-control are diametrically opposed to each other. The former requires little or no effort; the latter requires continuous effort. Why would one choose to exert constant effort that underlies self-control? To live prosperously and happily.

Human beings have to think through the consequences of their actions before they take action—if their goal is success and prosperity. They do this by thinking in principles, whether their actions involve relationships, money, work, health, and so on. When one thinks in principles, one can see the consequences of one's actions before taking action. Then, after deciding which actions to take, one is ready to achieve one's goals and values. If one's actions lead to the achievement of one's values, happiness will follow.

Emotions exist to experience joy and happiness. Such joy and happiness might come from a certain accomplishment or a romantic-love relationship. But emotions are not meant to be a source of action. Using one's emotions to take actions is a blind, primitive form of survival. It may have been common to act on emotions in primitive societies, but it is destructive in today's technological society. Acting on emotions is almost always destructive, both to self and others. It usually leads to the loss of values. Why? Because acting on emotions is nothing more than unprincipled behavior. Such behavior flouts principles, honesty, justice, and reality. Not surprisingly, those who act from an emotionalist/unprincipled base for an extended period of time risk being wiped out of existence by reality.

The alternative to acting on one's emotions is to exercise self-control. Self-control is the key to a happy, healthy, prosperous life. But it requires consistent effort. With self-control, one does not ignore one's emotions. Instead, one acknowledges one's emotions and takes them into account when formulating goals. One can then develop a plan to achieve one's goals using reality-based principled thinking. Actions based on a rational plan usually result in long-range happiness and well-being.

Anyone can let himself or herself go into a wild emotional rage. But now that the perfect mind is available to everyone, why bother? True, emotionalism can culminate in false power. Yet the perfect mind outcompetes and obsoletes (1) emotionalism, (2) false power, and (3) unhappy lifestyles. The perfect mind functions through consistent self-control and fully conceptual, undivided honesty. One might wonder, "Is it really worth the effort to exercise self-control?" Yes, it is worth the effort. Self-control is the route to genuine power, abiding prosperity, romantic fulfillment, and profound happiness.

Real excitement—the kind that is deep, lasting, and does not leave hangovers—comes from honest integrated thinking and effort. Destructive activities, such as promiscuous sex, drinking, using drugs, stealing, and murdering, can lead to a false sense of power and excitement. But all such activities lead the person away from life and toward death. Any excitement that comes from destructive activities is short-lived. And each destructive action is nothing more than a slow form of suicide.

Non-integrated thinking—remaining concrete-bound or being mystical—does not lead to lasting excitement. By not evolving into the integrated mode of consciousness, a person stagnates. Moreover, a person becomes dependent upon external authorities for survival. Who are those external authorities? They are simply well-camouflaged criminal minds. Stagnation and external authorities move one away from excitement and toward misery.

By breaking into integrated thinking and effort, one totally integrates with life. And from that full integration with life comes an all-pervasive excitement and happiness. Such excitement and happiness last throughout one's entire life.

If a person avoids integrated thinking, he or she misses the essence of conscious life. That essence consists of using one's mind to identify reality, integrate reality, and then act on reality to create values that other people willingly purchase. In other words, the essence of conscious life consists of business-like thinking and action. This requires constant effort, and it is the only way to experience ever-increasing excitement.

If one is not exerting effort in one's thought processes, one is not doing integrated thinking. And if one's actions are not tightly linked together to achieve maximum effectiveness and momentum, one is not exerting integrated effort. Integrated thinking and effort comprise hard work. Yet, they are the shortest distance to limitless prosperity, happiness, and excitement.

How does one break into integrated thinking and effort? To be sure, these do not happen automatically, although everyone is born with the capacity to perform integrated thinking. One breaks into integrated thinking and effort by developing the conceptual faculty. By developing the conceptual faculty, one awakens an immense power that lies dormant in everyone's head. Mystics throughout the ages have groped in the dark trying to explain the conceptual faculty. From Plato's Forms to today's vogue notion of the Higher Self, mystics have sought to explain this faculty. They all sensed the awesome power inherent in conceptual thinking. But no mystic in history has ever offered a valid explanation of the conceptual faculty.

Now, for the first time ever, anyone can develop the conceptual faculty—easily, pleasurably. The perfect mind is the conceptual faculty. And the perfect mind is the tool for performing integrated thinking and effort. Such a mind lets essentially anyone integrate knowledge, regardless of one's background. The new-to-earth release titled Perfect Mind/Perfect Body reveals this mind. Today, nearly anyone can capture an exotic life that arises from the perfect mind and body.

By revealing the perfect mind to people around the globe, mystical and dishonest thinking will eventually vanish from planet Earth. As each individual develops the conceptual faculty, he or she will outcompete mystical and criminal thinking. When a critical mass of people develops the perfect mind and body, everyone will quantum jump into a New World of beyond-belief excitement and happiness.

Each person has his or her own unique emotional pattern that comprises all the emotions and feelings the person experiences. Those emotions usually range from feelings of suicide to states of euphoria.

Everyone experiences negative emotions such as hatred and positive emotions such as love. But each person experiences negative and positive emotions in a certain proportion. For example, some people experience negative emotions most of the time and positive emotions occasionally. Other people have the opposite experience.

Certain people assert that man's natural emotional background consists of suffering. They say that pleasurable experiences are abnormal; man's primary emotional state is pain.

In reality, man's natural emotional background consists of well-being. Everyone comes into the world as a child with limitless potential for happiness and joy. Only after being pulled into the anticivilization does every child gradually lose his or her joy and well-being. But in a rational civilization—an Objectivist civilization—essentially everyone's predominant experience would be fulfillment. People would rarely experience anxiety and depression.

For those who experience negative emotions more often than they experience positive emotions, there is a key to reversing this proportion. The key to predominantly experiencing positive emotions—love, pleasure, happiness, and fulfillment—is consistent productive work.

By constantly producing values that other people willingly purchase, a person grows in self-esteem and independence. If one continuously produces values for self and others—and thereby improves the lives of other people—one will prosper emotionally and financially. There is no substitute for constant value production. If one does not continuously produce values for self and other people, one will lose the positive emotional background that is natural for conscious beings.

One of the most valuable effects that comes from developing the perfect mind and body is the internal experience this generates. This healthy mind and body engenders pleasurable feelings most of the time. Occasionally, however, one will feel inner pain. But the predominant internal experience is health and pleasure.

Young children often experience the sensation of pleasure. Before they become an integral part of the anticivilization, they are free to experience life. Being free of guilt, mysticism, dishonesty, specialized minds, and envy, young children often feel good. They do not need any special occasion to feel good, such as getting a new present or making a new friend. They feel good just living: their minds feel right, their bodies feel pleasurable, and life feels exciting. Every adult loses these natural feelings after they have become an integral part of earth's anticivilization.

The way to immediately boost one's pleasure, comfort, and well-being is to exit the anticivilization. And the most effective way to do this is to develop the perfect mind and body.

By developing the perfect mind and body, one rapidly commands life. That command lets one figure out just what to do in any competitive situation to gain maximum advantages. With this knowledge, one can quickly and efficiently act in one's own best interest. That means disintegrating from anticivilization perspectives and investments while integrating with Civilization-of-the-Universe perspectives and investments. Over time, one notices that inner contradictions, pain, and hopelessness fade away. Something new takes their place: inner clarity, pleasure, and confident optimism.

In short, upon developing the perfect mind and body, one experiences a new interaction between the mind and body. One's mind transforms into a super efficient processor of reality and one's body transforms into a super healthy organ that looks and feels great.

A new pattern of emotions pervades oneself as one's mind and body eliminate their negatives: irrationality, contradictions, dishonesty, tight muscles, pain-racked posture, hormonal imbalances, and disease. In fact, life takes on a new sensation. That sensation is difficult to put into words; it is like living with crystal clarity and a glowing pleasure. This is the underlying sensation one feels. From this background arises ever-increasing happiness about life in general and one's own life—work, achievements, and love—in particular. And all this is capped off with peaks of ecstatic pleasure that come from a variety of sources, such as love, work, personal growth, and art.

Those who do not develop the perfect mind and body might still feel good. However, they will not feel good most of the time, since they will remain trapped in a web of irrationality and dishonesty: the anticivilization.

People with the traditional mind and body are helpless to overcome the destruction and death that is inherent in the anticivilization. They will feel increasingly hopeless, like driving down a dead-end street, knowing that their internal suffering will culminate in death. Some will rationalize that their suffering in this life will be compensated with eternal happiness in another life. But other people know better. However, today, anyone can escape the sad fate of those living in earth's anticivilization. Anyone can develop the perfect mind and body and leave the anticivilization to discover the great beauty flowing throughout the Civilization of the Universe.

Perhaps the only entity on earth that equals the destructiveness of anticivilization governments is institutionalized religion. Whereas anticivilization governments rely on physical force and compulsion to control and drain everyone, religion relies on guilt to control and drain everyone.

Long ago, criminal-minded theologians conjured up universally applicable frauds that trapped everyone. Some of these frauds include the following: man is plagued with Original Sin, man is wicked by nature, sex beyond procreation is sinful, the naked human body is shameful, and erotic pleasure comes from the devil. These frauds come under a larger, all-encompassing fraud, which the criminal mind used to gain unprecedented power shortly after the time of Christ. That universal fraud consists of linking guilt with pleasure.

Pleasure is a universal emotion. Everyone wants to experience it and most people do experience it, at least occasionally. Sexual pleasure is an especially strong emotion that nearly everyone wants to experience. There are also other pleasures that people desire, such as esthetic pleasures, achievement pleasures, and friendship pleasures. By linking guilt with pleasure, criminal-minded leaders undermined everyone's passion for life. But that is not all they did.

Along the path to the top of the anticivilization, criminal-minded leaders discovered that by linking guilt with pleasure, they could easily rule mankind. This is what happened as evidenced by history. Soon after criminal-minded theologians learned to link guilt with pleasure, the Roman Catholic Church took over Western civilization. Shortly thereafter, the Western world fell into a dark age of lost knowledge, stifled progress, poor living conditions, and widespread unhappiness. Neurosis skyrocketed as overall well-being plummeted. People lived short, guilt-filled lives. For what? To provide undeserved livelihoods for a few cloaked criminals.

Sadly, Traditional Man lacked the power to stop the highly-skilled use of guilt against innocent people. Traditional Man had to endure two thousand years of orchestrated manipulations designed to wipe out self-esteem and happiness. This, in turn, left people helpless when the religious authorities came to "redeem" the masses and offer them eternal salvation in another life. Many people surrendered to this grand hoax. Few people resisted.

Today, with the Perfect Mind/Perfect Body breakthrough, the criminal mind—and its tools of force, fraud, and guilt—is finished. Linking guilt with pleasure was terribly effective...against Traditional Man. That is because Traditional Man lacked a valid epistemology needed to identify and stop widely-integrated frauds. That valid epistemology consists of reality-based principled thinking. Advanced Man uses this method of thinking to capture authentic power, earned prosperity, exciting romance, guilt-free pleasures, and supreme protection—forever.
