Describing the draug

The draug is a person’s actions in the absence of control by the person.

I will put here an extract from an old writing I made on this subject. In the future, I will make an up-to-date description of the draug.

“I will proceed the proving of Draug’s incompetence by addressing the issue of anger:

Anger is something exclusive to Draug. I see anger to be when you are committed to doing something, but something is inhibiting the completion of the thing. The anger causes Draug to shift from trying to do the thing, to trying to do anything that is within its power to be done. I observe this anything to be very destructive in multiple ways. It diverts from that which the person Is trying to do, but also ends with something destructive occurring. This can be to the surrounding environment, and it can be to relationships you have with people, through destructive communication.

You can see the negative consequences of anger in its large-scale impact and smaller scale incidents that both add unnecessary suffering to people’s life experiences and diverts away from potential enjoyment. All the incidents of anger accumulate into a significant loss of productivity, and a significant gain in needless destruction towards my cause. This can be seen in the social disfunction that is fuelled by episodes of anger that is the source for much abusing actions from people to other people and creatures. These incidents create needles interpersonal troubles that hurt people’s ability to feel safe from someone prone to anger driven abusive episodes, and people’s ability to feel safe from their own abusing of people. This may cause a person to accept that they are an abusive person, which would result in them perpetuating their harm to others and themselves. Since the victims may also not understand the mind, they may assume the person is just a bad abusive individual and not seek to optimise the situation by trying to work with the person’s humanity, but instead find ways to destroy the individual. This can needlessly create a significant sabotaging of the individual’s potential positive experiences and give them much more suffering. People will also have to deal with the negative outcome of that which the abusive person was managing being sabotaged, which could result in homelessness, if the person was providing a place to live, or significant effects to a community if the person was responsible for an integral role for the communities functioning.

The self does not have potential for anger. It is exclusive to Draug. This is one reason for the need for peoples adopting of self-control.

I will now show Draug’s issue with Despair:

Despair is something I have observed when Draug is feeling futility in its fight against a severe loss of important things that it relies on for its present idea of what living is. During my episodes of this, Draug was desperate for something to end its life, as the situations of were unbearable to it. This shows Draugs attachment to the abilities it relies on for general living in. It wanted to die instead of adjust to a new set of abilities that could have easily been enough to continue a happy life.

The self has no attachment to its current way of living. When the self is operating, life changing losses stop being a cause for despair, and are instead obstacles that it navigates itself through.”
