Engagement and Disillusionment 

Engaged here means the engagement of the mind with the mind. In order to keep the engagement of the mind with the mind intact, it is important to be happy with your mind. Despondency is despair, grief, heartbreak.          

In the case of engagement, if the mind’s desire is fulfilled, if the mind does not get hurt, sorrow, or suffering, the mind is right. The attention is the same remains A close connection of mind with mind keeps the focus fixed. Enthusiasm increases in the mind, it remains cheerful. Therefore, there is no need to grieve, nor to suffer. You have to keep going, seeing that the cut does not open in the mind and feet. No one can be given a place to occupy the mind. You have to move forward in connection with your own existence. Therefore, the power of the mind is very important.  Flowers should be kept in care. The juice will be in the mind, let the mind move like that. Mind connection provides the juice to move forward in life.

Understanding of mind and spirit with mind. Persistence, hope, desire, self-strength, mental strength move the mind forward. From connected thoughts, one has to increase concentration and move forward in life. Sparkling, shining light keeps life in full flow. All is the result of mind freshness. Intelligence and mental connection with the mind, kinship of one’s own soul with one’s own soul can keep oneself in order, must reach the right goal.              

Despondency means to be broken, hopeless. The mind is burdened with pain – it increases the sickness of the mind. The mind breaks down, becomes useless. The distance between the mind and the mind increases. The connection between the mind is lost. There will be both engagement of the mind and disorientation in life. But if you give importance or keep alive the depression Mind will be hurt, mind power and self-power will be lost. Which is very bad for everyone. Even if you are depressed, you should do what you need to do. You should see your dreams.          

Symptoms of depression or anxiety:

1. First understand yourself – I have suffered, I am suffering. 2. Loss of enthusiasm for work or creative work. 3. No way forward. Signs of getting out of depression: 1. To identify the pain of the mind, find out the cause. 2. To find a way to shake off or erase the pain of the mind. 3. Staying away from those people who have caused grief. 4.Walk and talk in such a way that no one gets hurt. 5. Talking and discussing the matter with a close person if necessary. 6. Dancing-reciting-pictures-art- listening to music, creative work including yoga and joining social service work.

7. Persistence, strength, patience and courage to make new plans and move forward, to overcome adversity. 8. Mental preparation is always necessary. I will be fine. I will be strong in any situation, my actions I will take it forward. 9. I will not let injustice happen to me. I have to protest for injustice. Sometimes I have to fight silently. 10. Even if you are disappointed, you have to give yourself hope. Must go to work. 11. Stay away from negative thoughts and activities. 12. It is one’s duty and duty to mend one’s broken heart. 13.

THEY DIDN’T COME BACK

The truth of life is 

To live with pains 

So many people came 

So many people passed 

From this life 

Some people went before from us 

And They never came back again 

They didn’t inform 

From the future 

They went 

And they didn’t come back.

Beyond the Stars 

The stars are but holes in the sky’s cloak, 

where whispers of nameless worlds seep through. 

I search for your shadow in every crevice, 

like a river seeking the sea in the desert. 

Your voice is an echo trapped in the crystal of years, 

shattering into a thousand flashes with every breath. 

I gather it with hands of dampness and salt, 

like one who collects fragments of the moon on the edge of night. 

Time is a tapestry of invisible threads, 

stitching our lives to bodies of stone. 

But we are the thread that escapes the loom,

twisting around the heart of the universe. 

Beyond the stars, there is no darkness: 

there is a sea of ​​light where 

weightless memories swim. 

There, your smile is an island of cold fire, 

and I am the wind that caresses it 

without touching it. 

Our love is a silence that takes shape, 

like the space between the notes of a song never sung. 

It lives in the place where dreams end 

and things that don’t need to be said begin…

To You, O God 

Your reflection dwells in the eyes of the spiritual. 

I seek You, O God — 

tirelessly, in the silence of morning, in a drop of dew, 

in the breath that awakens with the dawn. 

I search for You 

in the touch of the wind, 

in the bird that sings unseen, 

in thoughts that fall silent 

while the heart speaks. 

I know, 

You are everywhere — 

in the gaze of the beggar, 

in the smile of the wise, 

in the hush of the temple, 

and in the clamor of life. 

When I kneel, 

it is not before the world, 

but before Your eternal goodness. 

When I weep, 

I do not fear sorrow — 

for I know You are in every tear. 

To You, O God, 

I offer this verse, 

let it be a bridge 

between my being 

and Your eternity.

What has happened to the Earth?

With the rise of human unrest, everything around feels breathless.

Distrust and rashness spread in every direction
Like unleashed waves of overflowing waters outside
They devour our shelter, devour our lives
Nature itself is losing its own rhythm.

Rivers are drying, settlements are burning
Cities and ports drift away
The game of justice and injustice goes on
While elsewhere piles of bodies keep rising.

As if from behind, someone pulls the strings,
Drunk on the intoxication of the dead—
Someone, keeps pulling the strings.

Just as history’s pages reveal:
Seeking one’s own heroism
In exchange for human corpses.

Yet we grew up knowing
We learned it from the pages of books—
Human beings exist for one another.

As if in some mythic war
The might of the powerful is being put on display
Oil for oil’s own sorcery
Gold mines and strings of pearls—

Searching and searching
One day the earth will give up
All its glittering treasures from within.

And that day,
Powerful and powerless alike
Will blur into one voice and ask together:
What has happened to the Earth?

THE MYTHIC TRANSREALISM MANIFESTO

Founded by Alex S. Johnson

1. We reject the false divide between the real and the unreal

Reality is not a fixed surface. It is porous, symbolic, wounded, ecstatic. Myth is not ancient — it is happening now, in the body, in the psyche, in the street, in the underworld of memory. Mythic Transrealism treats the surreal as truth and the truth as a doorway.

2. We honor the wounded, the misread, and the erased

Our stories rise from the margins — not as victims, but as architects. We write from pain without fetishizing it, from survival without sanitizing it. We build sanctuary for those denied one.

3. We fuse mythic structure with lived experience

Archetypes are not abstractions. They are the shapes our lives take when we are pushed to the edge. Descent, transformation, return — these are not literary devices. They are the map of the human underworld.

4. We embrace surrealism as emotional truth

The grotesque, the dreamlike, the ecstatic, the impossible — these are not decorations. They are the language of the psyche speaking in its native tongue. We do not explain the surreal. We inhabit it.

5. We reject institutional gatekeeping

No academy, award committee, or self‑appointed authority defines our worth. Our lineage comes from punk clubs, metal bars, spoken‑word stages, underground presses, and the people who survived what should have broken them. We answer to craft, community, and truth — not to institutions.

6. We write with punk ethos and mythic intent

Punk gives us the refusal. Myth gives us the structure. Transrealism gives us the lens. We combine them to create a literature that is raw, visionary, and ungovernable.

7. We treat editing as ritual and publishing as sanctuary

To edit is to witness. To publish is to protect. To curate is to build lineage. A press is not a business — it is an altar.

8. We honor our lineage openly and fiercely

Our movement stands in conversation with punk priestesses, dark fantasists, weird‑fiction innovators, metal icons, surrealist painters, spoken‑word prophets, and the wounded visionaries who came before us. We name our ancestors. We extend their work.

9. We refuse the binary of high and low art

We claim the sacred in the profane, the poetic in the grotesque, the mythic in the mundane. We write for the page, the stage, the alley, the dream, the wound, the ritual. We do not apologize for where we come from.

10. We create worlds that are emotionally real, spiritually charged, and formally free

Mythic Transrealism is not a style. It is a way of seeing. A way of surviving. A way of transforming the unbearable into the mythic.

11. We build community through reciprocity, not hierarchy

We lift each other. We protect each other. We recognize each other. Our movement grows through kinship, not competition.

12. We write to transform — not to escape

Our work is a descent into the underworld and a return with something true. We do not flee reality. We reforge it.

 THE CLOSING VOW

Mythic Transrealism is a literature of survival, vision, and sovereignty. It is a movement born from pain, shaped by punk, sharpened by surrealism, and consecrated by myth. We write because the world is not enough — and because the world is too much. We write to build the sanctuary we were denied. We write to give others a map out of the dark.

This is our lineage. This is our movement. This is Mythic Transrealism.

Human Dignity

One of the most pressing global issues today is human dignity. Whether viewed from a religious perspective or from the standpoint of science, a human being is a conscious and intellectually developed entity. The difference between humans and animals does not lie in appearance or the ability to speak. Humans possess qualities that no other living being on Earth has—wisdom, intellect, perception, thinking, and memory. From a religious point of view as well, sacred scriptures state that humans are the most perfected creation of God.

Without straying from our topic, let us reflect on how human dignity is measured today. What is human dignity? In my opinion, human dignity means that in every society individuals—people—respect one another, refrain from various conflicts, stay away from insulting words, extend a helping hand to each other selflessly, and do not use this help for personal gain.

Among the worst vices that trample on human dignity are human trafficking, the trade in human organs, the violence and aggressive acts currently being committed against innocent young girls, and the deaths of innocent people in wars caused by conflicts between states. Human dignity stands above everything else. Just as many people measure happiness with money, they also measure human worth with money—this is degradation. Human dignity is reflected in every good deed, in selfless charity, and in a sincere smile.

Never trample on your own dignity or the values of others for the sake of mere paper money! After all, all the problems in society stem from this.
