Forgotten Instincts: Human as a Sick Animal

Instincts are the default preferences of W1 body. Every W2 construction is built upon the definition of pleasure and pain according to basic instincts. W1 body experiences are the building blocks of any W2 construction through associations and attributions. For instance, seeing a picture of frozen landscape of North Pole also brings to mind coldness because you have already touched ice and remember the feeling. Similarly, a picture suggestive of sexual pleasure can make individuals excited. Sometimes the W2 image and concept of pleasure is more pleasureable or powerful than the W1 body pleasure itself. This can cause a lot of problems. This is the reson that human is a sick animal. Human’s psyche in W2 is full of confused reflections and illusions of W1. The concept of eternal pleasure can seem much stronger than fleeting W1 body pleasure. This may create a lot of contradictions and confusion, and deep discontent in a person’s psyche.
For instance, many religious constructions try to suppress W1 body pleasure in order to create more harmony and gain control over masses. These religions sacrifice the purest and the most pleasurable experiences people can have for their gain. They construct eternal scenarios of pleasure and pain (which are some illusions considering the machinery of X). They set up scenarios, where people sacrifice their W1 body pleasure in order to win the favor of the God (an omni-potent and Omni-present being that can make eternal pleasure or beauty possible). The promise of future pleasure becomes more powerful than the first-hand experience of pleasure.
In modern era, mass media tap into the basic instincts (where the most preferable experiences originate from) and flood people with influx of illusions and scenarios of pain or pleasure. Capitalism also promises and illustrates an exaggerated pleasure of wealth in order to make people run on treadmills to turn its wheels.
