Indian mindset.20160725
Is there such a creature as an Indian? There may be, but you will not find it. An Indian pure and simple is rare as a griffin or an assyrian bull.
How should it be otherwise? the Indian is not a person, but a patchwork. Indeed, he reminds me of Ibsen`s famous onion-one layer, then another, then another, and finally, nothing.
It is peeling of the various layers that causes much trouble. Each layer tells its own tale and, what is unbelievable, is not part of an organic whole. the result is that the so-called Indian is the most contradictory of persons. He is perpetually at war with himself.
Not knowing himself, he is unable to understand others. Our metaphysics, wonderful as they are, have tried to solve this confusion, bu in vain. Our multilayered soul remains hidden and unfathomable.
