So either the past and external world do not exist only in the mind, or the mind itself is not controllable, or both.
ah, but here the dilemma lies... you CAN transform your surroundings. nut only for yourself. it is a matter of altering perception. you can choose either to believe that the holocast happened or not. because it is the general consensus (via collective unconciousness) that it did, most go with the flow and do not question it.

personally, i think it did happen... but have i seen any evidence to that fact? no. have i seen anything like a death camp? have i seen ashes fall from the sky like black snow? no and no. what i do know comes from what i have been told. what society tells me happened. THAT is the controling aspect of society.
