'Those who are in a minority must always be on their guard' ~ Hans Werner Henze
and do you always know when you are the minority? in a society, in a group, in a psychological anomaly...

Human beings need to have enough wisdom to realize that there is no point anymore in being in a group dynamic. By entering this state of mind, they only succumb to a primitive urge of survival. Knowledge and understanding have brought them this far, hopefully it can take them to the next level.

I'm trying to recall a moment when I have ever been part of a majority.
No-one I've voted for has ever been elected.
I have a rarer personality type on Myers-Briggs: INTJ
And so it goes. Life at the end of the bell-curve.
There's a lot to be said against the majority, and definite reasons to be on the alert regarding its views and activities.
"It is no good thing to be well-adjusted to a sick society"

I once a very alone person but then I meant to be with a group who works with the finer energies around the planet.It is also known as transmission meditation in which all members of this group offer up their bodies up as channels for the incoming energies of Aquarius.

I believe that some may find it to be true.
I would say for myself that it is not.
I am not guarded as I have the protection of my spirituality to guard for me.
I do not think of others opinions, societal standards, psychological or otherwise. I am happily living my life with no thought to the people who may or may not outnumber me at any point, or any given time.
Blessings

I believe I'm a minority in every aspect so yes, I do always know when I am the minority.

Fabulous for provoking thought and nothing more...
Yes. When you are a minority you are always painfully aware of it.
It's just kind of a do-nothing quote... we (as minorities) already know that we could be tossed aside at any moment... it's instinctual... doesn't require pondering.

i wouldn't stress the minority issue that much but i guess its the system that separates and propose defence measures as to stay in control ( divide and conquer)
