Are you confused between AUTHENTIC SELF and SHADOW SELF ?
We all have a SHADOW SELF.
SHADOW SELF = ANIMAL ANCESTRY = A GENIUS DEMON SITTING INSIDE THE UNCONSCIOUS. IT RUNS AUTONOMOUSLY JUST LIKE YOUR DIGESTION / BREATHING ETC.
It is this GENIUS DEMON which unconsciously forces a HUMAN BEING to FIT INTO NORMAL CURVE !
The only way to prevent yourself from FITTING INTO NORMAL CURVE is to become CONSCIOUS of this DEMON !
The only way to prevent yourself from FITTING INTO NORMAL CURVE is to become CONSCIOUS of this DEMON !
When you DENY your SHADOW SELF that is INFERIOR ;
Your SHADOW SELF will unconsciously start reflecting in your CHARACTER.
People think you are a DRAG QUEEN ; but you are A REAL SHADOW SELF AND NOT DRAG QUEEN !
Today's topic is how to TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR SHADOW SELF ?
Today lets explore American Psychological Thriller - BLACK SWAN !
Nina (Natalie Portman) is a ballerina whose passion for the dance rules every facet of her life.
While Nina is perfect for the role of the WHITE SWAN, She was unable to dance for BLACK SWAN - HER ALTERNATE ! The Art Director introduces Lily to personify the BLACK SWAN.
Do you know why Lily was called by the Art Director as a PERFECT DANCER ?
Because Lily was able to present the DARK CHARACTER - THE BLACK SWAN better than Nina.
Unconscious Mind :
Why was LILY able to personify the character of BLACK SWAN better than Nina ?
Conscious Mind : I dont know !
Unconscious Mind : Take a look at the video again !
Unconscious Mind : Lily was living her SHADOW SELF.
LILY believed that her SHADOW SELF is the REAL SELF.
LILY believed that her SHADOW SELF is the AUTHENTIC SELF.
There was no FAKING IN HER ACTING AND PERFORMANCE ; SHE WAS ACTING HER REAL SELF OUT ! The only difference is - HER REAL SELF WAS A SHADOW SELF - HER ANIMAL ANCESTRY. THE LOWEST VERSION OF HER TRUE SELF !
Back to the movie :
In order to CHASE PERFECTION AND TO BE ABLE TO PLAY THE ROLE OF BLACK SWAN Nina's DARK CHARACTER started emerging in REAL LIFE !
HER DARK CHARACTER WAS HER SHADOW SELF.
Black swan in the movie = SHADOW SELF ! They are not DANGEROUS - THEY ARE BIOLOGICAL BY NATURE LIKE ANY OTHER ANIMALS. THATS ALL.
White swan = AUTHENTIC SELF !
Lesson from the Movie : At the end of the movie ;
When Nina arrives at her dressing room after performance ; Lily congratulates her ; turns out that Lily's Intentions were NOT BAD.
We must realize that SHADOW SELF Is not HARMFUL - They are BIOLOGICAL/ANIMALISTIC in their NATURE ; That's All.
WOMEN EMPOWERMENT =
Empower a women to become successful ; without morphing her into a BLACK SWAN in the pursuit of PERFECTION.
