Ever wonder why there are soooOOOOooo many frikin shock-jocks on the air, er, I mean gurus (and swamis and rishis and roshis and etc.) on the teaching circuit, ok, I mean shock-jocks??
It's because they are operating >>within<< the rules of engagement, but right up to the line, and only very infrequently breaking them. If one of them DARES to break the rules by crossing too far over the line, for too long, their license to offend is unceremoniously yanked; gurus included.
But, if there were no rules - and this couldn't happen except under the most exceptional conditions rarely seen on earth - the shock-jocks would dry up overnight, as would the gurus and swamis and for the same reasons. Once the rules of engagement are removed for all - when anything is possible - and everybody can shock, lie, cajole, con, with absolute impunity, no one particular will stand out as being unique. In a very real sense, the general level of activity, and noise, is raised by a noticeable degree.
But, of course, there ARE rules - and Life establishes those rules and they are generally immutable and unbreakable for all but the few who find out how (the shock-jocks don't know how, nor the guru-swamis). And, >>how<< is the keyword there. Not why, not when, not who. HOW!
And how!!!
How, NOW, brown cow...
