Publisher's summary

Why Do We Want to Dominate or Be Subservient to Another? - 20th August 1949.

  • Why is it that we dominate, consciously or unconsciously?
  • To submit oneself to another is the negative form of domination. We shall not be able to solve this problem by thinking in terms of opposites.
  • Is not domination a process of isolation, which denies relationship?
  • Can there be relationship between two people if there is any sense of domination or submissiveness?
  • Q: Is not the experience of the past a help towards freedom and right action in the present?
  • Q: Is my believing in survival after death a hindrance to liberation through self-knowledge?
  • Q: Why is it certain individuals identify themselves with you or with your state of being and thereby gain authority for themselves?
