If Seneca comes alive today I'm sure he would appreciate the song 'Clockworks' by Messhugah. Because the song is about healing the disturbed mind by eliminating emotional disturbance and developing your reason. In words of Seneca: "So where is it people go wrong, since everyone choose a happy life? Because they mistake the means of happiness for the end, and actually flee it while they are seeking it. For although a firm freedom from care and unshaken confidence is the essence of a happy life, they gather reasons for anxiety, and not only carry burdens on the treacherous journey of life but drag them along; so they are always falling further behind from what they are aiming for, and the more effort they spend, the more they hamper themselves and are carried backwards. This happens to men hurrying through a maze; their very speed entangles them." |
