There is an allegory in eastern religions about our inner world. When you anger the high priest of selfish ambition, your ambition, he locks you up in a dungeon, isolated from all human contact; the dungeon is located right next to the priest's room and right in front of the shrine of madness. That is the nature of this priest's cruelty. CIA was apparently inspired by this story.

- eliasmacpherson 4y agocan you share the allegory? narrow down the eastern religion? provide a link? my chanda is always all muddled with my tanha. maybe the two psychologists who designed some of their techniques were lapsed adherents who'd heard the allegory - you never know. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/aug/17/cia-torture-lawsuit-settled-against-psychologists-who-designed-techniques https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/aug/17/cia-torture-...
