Human mind is the mostcomplex system there is.

In my opinion theres no

way to fully understand it,there will always be a partof it that will remainunknown to us.

And it is that part of ourmind which is moreinteresting to proveexperiments on.

Our minds Dark side

There might not be such thing as a dark sideitself, but there certainly is a part of our minds

that we dont know about, because usually weare not forced to use it.

But, on extreme situation, such as the ones

exposed on the documentary, that side not onlyshows up, but takes over our behavior,encouraging as to do things we would neverthink of, even things we might regret.

It had never come to myattention howunconditionally obedient

people are ones theyveassumed theres anauthority figure, how theymay not question anythingof what theyre told, how

easily they can give intoaction that are completelyopposite to their ethics ifthey can release themselvesof responsibility.

Although this information isright on our face everyday,when you see it this way iscompletely different.

I think that what most people would think is that ithas to be something as extreme as what is showedon the documentary to change our behavior, totransform us into something we are not.

But if we look a little closer we might recognize thatfriend of ours who became a dictator when he gotpromoted, or was chosen captain, or president of thestudents council, any situation that gives a feeling ofpower, and freedom to use it, might reveal a new partof our personality.

What the documentary shows is people who abuse their power, and otherpeople who let them.

If people opposed more strongly to people who try to commit abuse, thewhole world would be different, if each one of us thought, more likely, ifeach of us was aware, of our importance people wouldnt be so afraid to

speak. Everyone thinks that they cant make a difference Nothings gonna

change by me saying that is quite the common phrase, but the truth is,that people who have been remembered in history are no more than thosewho realized how important they were, how their ideas (for better or forworse) could make a difference. If they could, why cant I?Why cant you?

YOU CAN CHANGE HISTORY!

At the very least you can change your life, so next time you see abusebeing committed speak up! Make a difference!

DONTBE AFRAID TO SPEAK

UP

Train your mind to defeat every

obstacle!

How?I think the best way to have a strong mind is tohave your moral grounds properly set, to think aboutthe reasons why you behave the way you do, why dopeople around us are the way they are.

Mainly Its to question everything, so that you have yourown answers, your own truth, not the truth thatsomeone else wants for us.

That way you will only act when youre truly convincedabout what youre doing, and so it should take more thanjust an authority figure to make you give into actions thatare unethical to you.

CONCLUSION

In my opinion the most important lesson totake from the documentary is that

our minds are the strongest weapon we

have, a strong mind can defeat the

strongest army, the prettiest body, the

most talented person . . .as they say:

COGITO ERGO SUM!
