Out of Slumber 1

It's right to kill.
In an interesting conversation with an accomplice, layers of dust on me was finally beginning to give way to the light that waited on the other side of the tunnel. I have had these experiences before where the universe suddenly becomes reachable and yet, so small am I that I can only marvel at it's being.
What's right and what's wrong can only be decided by you. But what most people fail to understand is, they'll discover this "you" only when they challenge the basic assumptions governing their lives, ruling them and making a slave out of them that has no option but to submit. That slave has seen no other life and hence is so sure about their current state being the ultimate one that it's nothing less than obvious that that's all there is to life.
They call this decision-making aspect religion, culture and society. But WHERE did it come from? A story told over and over, passed on via word of mouth from one person to another, finally takes a different form all together. It may have become a work of fiction with any resemblance to a living character, place or event entirely coincidental.
So, let's clear the dust. And we may so be convinced even killing is not wrong. Death is after all the commencement of a new beginning. Food for thought.
