Manson passes on to next phase, or did he?
I remember reading that book back in the 70's, never looked over my shoulder so much in my life.
Fascinating how he blamed society/jail for the way he is, throwing what we perceive as evil, all to him.
Kids do that. Parents are blamed not only by them, but by society as well if something goes haywire.
Do we still take responsibility for our own actions even when society has screwed you over and possibly demonized your being?
Certainly we are born under societal pressures that embody our own karma and this includes maniacal leaders like Trump. But how we respond or do not respond determines our future incarnations. In a sense therefore we also are responsible for everything our society heaps on us. If we do not like it we need to help change it and most importantly change ourselves.
