Introduction

These texts deal with social formations and practical methods to expel those Social invasions into people — persona, mass psychology, "moral character", character-armor, social programming, the authoritarian personality — so as to affirm a new reality as well as to nourish actions upon oneself by oneself (self-therapy), de- and dis- alienating daily life and tossing out all of the roles, attitudes, and behaviors which maintain the status quo.

I will try to cover aspects of totality, from numerous angles, so that as communicating "blind men" each describing their "impressions" in reference to a limited but fruitful experience, achieve a useful albeit dynamic agreement about their friend and fellow, the elephant, such that mutually exists as a harmony of many passions, a rainbow of many colors, a palette of many evolutions, a resonance of many uniquenesses.... Thus, a world of expanding plenty butts upp against a reductive monopolization, and the departure from a deadening world of zero-sum, of rigid linearity, of either-or binary choices, and endlessly circling the nothingness of flatland ensues.

T'is time to embrace and birth becoming more than "the imposed or the imposing"!
