What One Will Realise From This Blog

After reading this blog, the reader will realise that:

  • Happiness is not about being good or bad

    but about inner and outer alignment.


  • Shameless or reckless people don’t look happy because they are fulfilled,

    but because their consciousness has not yet created inner conflict.


  • Discipline feels painful only when consciousness is low;

    when awareness rises, discipline becomes liberating.


  • Men and women are not flawed or confusing —

    they start from different inner structures and therefore evolve differently.


  • Men suffer when power is suppressed without awareness.

    Women suffer when emotions are suppressed without safety.


  • No one can be “fixed” by shaming, arguing, or forcing morality.

    Consciousness rises only through meditation, self-awareness, charity, and spiritual learning.


  • True happiness is not loud, reckless, or addictive.

    It is quiet, stable, and deeply aligned.


  • The most important work is not changing others,

    but raising one’s own consciousness and stopping participation in unconscious patterns.



Why some shameless men look happier than disciplined men — and what no one explains


Have you noticed something strange in society?

A drunkard.


A shameless man.


A reckless man who speaks vulgar things openly.

Often looks happier than a man who lives a disciplined, controlled, responsible life.

He laughs louder.


He looks carefree.


He seems relaxed.

While the disciplined man:

  • controls himself

  • suppresses impulses

  • carries responsibility

  • lives with restraint

often looks serious, tired, or burdened.

This creates a confusing question in many minds:


“Is discipline actually killing happiness?”

The answer is not simple — but it is honest.


A truth about men that society avoids

Most men are not born consciously evolved.

They are born raw.

Raw instincts.


Raw aggression.


Raw desire.


Raw ego.


Raw survival intelligence.

This is not a flaw.


This isnature’s starting point for men.

A man’s default consciousness is low-level and instinct-driven.


Without inner work, his natural urge is to express:

  • dominance

  • control

  • anger

  • sexual energy

  • rebellion

When this inner state finds expression without public shame, it feels like freedom.

And freedom feels like happiness.


Why villain roles give movie heroes deep satisfaction

This is why many actors openly say:


“Playing a villain was deeply satisfying.”

It’s not just acting.

When playing a villain, a man is allowed to:

  • express anger without apology

  • dominate without guilt

  • drop moral filters

  • act without inner resistance

For a moment, his inner state matches his outer expression.

That alignment removes inner friction.

Less friction = relief


Relief = pleasure


Pleasure feels like happiness

This is alignment at a primitive level, not evolution.


Why vulgar comments and shameless behaviour feel satisfying


This is also why:

  • social media is full of vulgar comments

  • anonymous abuse gives people pleasure

  • cruelty feels entertaining to some

For low-consciousness minds, dark expression gives relief.

They are not confident.


They are not powerful.

They are simply undisturbed by self-awareness.

This is not growth.

This is absence of inner conflict.


Why shameless and drunk men often look happier


A drunkard or shameless man often looks happy because:

  • alcohol shuts down inner friction

  • irresponsibility avoids self-questioning

  • shamelessness avoids guilt

No resistance.


No reflection.


No inner war.

So they experience temporary relief.

But this relief exists only because consciousness has not been raised.

This is borrowed happiness — taken from tomorrow.


Why disciplined life feels heavy for many men

Society trains men to:

  • earn

  • protect

  • provide

  • be responsible

But society rarely trains men to:

  • understand their emotions

  • observe their inner darkness

  • raise their consciousness

  • sit with their own mind

So men are told:


“Control yourself.”

But never taught:


“Transform yourself.”

This creates a mismatch.

Inner state remains raw.


Outer behaviour is forced to be civilised.

That mismatch produces:

  • frustration

  • suppressed anger

  • irritation

  • secret resentment

So discipline feels like punishment, not wisdom.


This is where many women misunderstand men


Women often wonder:

  • “Why does he enjoy being harsh?”

  • “Why does he resist discipline?”

  • “Why does he feel suffocated by control?”

Often, it’s not cruelty.


It’s undeveloped consciousness.

A man whose awareness has not evolved feels unhappy when he cannot express his inner darkness.

That does not make it right —

but it makes itunderstandable.


The real truth about happiness

Happiness does not come from expressing darkness freely.

That is only relief.

True happiness comes from:

Inner and outer alignment at a higher level of consciousness.


Low-consciousness happiness:

“I feel good because I can express my darkness.”


High-consciousness happiness:

“I feel peaceful because my inner state itself has changed.”


What actually changes a man

Not rules.

Not shame.

Not moral lectures.

But:

  • meditation

  • self-awareness

  • inner observation

  • spiritual wisdom

When consciousness rises:

  • inner darkness softens

  • need for dominance reduces

  • aggression transforms into grounded strength

Discipline no longer feels suffocating.


It feels empowering.

Sobriety feels strong.


Silence feels fulfilling.


Responsibility feels meaningful.



So,


Men are not broken.

They areunfinished.


Society prepares men to survive, not to awaken.

When consciousness is not raised:

  • shamelessness feels freeing

  • intoxication feels joyful

  • irresponsibility feels light

When consciousness is raised:

  • discipline feels liberating

  • clarity feels peaceful

  • strength becomes calm

A truly happy man is not the one who vents darkness,

but the one whoseinner and outer versions are aligned at a conscious level.

That is real freedom.


Quiet.


Stable.


Deep.



What about a woman? Is it the same?


No. It is not the same.


The mechanism is different — biologically, emotionally, and consciously.


A woman’s default nature is different from a man’s

Most women are not born raw in the same way men are.

A woman’s default state is usually:

  • emotionally aware

  • relational

  • sensitive to surroundings

  • intuitive

  • connection-oriented

Even at lower consciousness levels, women naturally feel more.

So a woman does not experience happiness mainly through dark expression like dominance or cruelty.

Her suffering and relief work on a different axis.


What happens when a woman is at low consciousness

At low consciousness, a woman’s darkness usually shows up as:

  • emotional manipulation

  • jealousy

  • victimhood

  • passive aggression

  • attention-seeking

  • silent punishment

Unlike men, open shameless expression does not give women lasting relief.

Because women cannot escape emotional awareness easily.

Even when a woman behaves badly:

  • she feels it

  • remembers it

  • replays it

  • carries it

So shamelessness does not free her the way it frees a low-consciousness man.


Why you don’t see “happy shameless women” often


A drunk, vulgar, shameless man may look happy.

A woman in the same state often looks:

  • restless

  • chaotic

  • emotionally unstable

  • internally wounded

Because a woman’s nervous system is not built to suppress emotions —

it’s built toprocess them.

So darkness expressed outwardly boomerangs inward.


What gives low-consciousness women temporary happiness


For women, temporary relief often comes from:

  • validation

  • attention

  • being desired

  • emotional reassurance

  • control through victimhood

Not from cruelty.

That’s why:

  • social media attention feels addictive

  • emotional drama feels “alive”

  • being needed feels important

This is also low-level alignment, but emotional rather than aggressive.


Why disciplined women sometimes look unhappy


When a woman is disciplined without emotional safety or self-awareness, she feels:

  • unheard

  • unseen

  • emotionally starved

So discipline without inner nourishment feels like emotional suppression.

This can lead to:

  • sadness

  • irritability

  • emotional shutdown

Just like men, discipline without consciousness hurts —

but the pain manifests emotionally, not aggressively.


What raises a woman’s consciousness

For women, evolution happens through:

  • emotional awareness (not suppression)

  • self-worth beyond validation

  • inner safety

  • spiritual grounding

  • deep self-acceptance

Meditation, solitude, and surrender work faster for women

because their intuition is naturally active.


What true happiness looks like in a woman


Low-consciousness happiness in women:

“I feel good because I’m desired / needed / validated.”

High-consciousness happiness in women:

“I feel safe, whole, and at peace within myself.”

When a woman’s inner and outer states align at higher consciousness:

  • she becomes calm, not reactive

  • powerful, not controlling

  • soft, not weak

  • expressive, not chaotic

Her presence itself becomes grounding.


So,

Men escape suffering through expression.


Women escape suffering throughconnection.

Men evolve by refining power.


Women evolve by stabilising emotion.

Both suffer when consciousness is low.


Both become deeply happy wheninner and outer alignment happens at a higher level.



Why happiness looks different in men and women — a consciousness perspective


Many people notice something confusing in society:

Some men who are shameless, reckless, even drunk


often look happier than disciplined men.

But the same pattern is rarely seen in women.

This is not coincidence.


This is consciousness working differentlyin men and women.


The starting point is not the same



Men


Most men are born raw.

  • instinct-driven

  • action-oriented

  • dominance-based

  • survival-focused

Their default state is low-level consciousness unless refined.


Women


Most women are born emotionally awake.

  • feeling-oriented

  • relational

  • intuitive

  • connection-focused

Even at low consciousness, women are emotionally aware.

This single difference changes everything.


What low consciousness looks like in men vs women


Low-consciousness men

Their darkness expresses as:

  • aggression

  • dominance

  • vulgar speech

  • recklessness

  • shameless behaviour

When they express this without public shame, they feel:

  • relief

  • excitement

  • freedom

No inner conflict = pleasure


Pleasure feels like happiness

That’s why:

  • villain roles feel satisfying

  • vulgar comments feel relieving

  • intoxication feels joyful

This is primitive alignment, not maturity.


Low-consciousness women

Their darkness expresses as:

  • emotional manipulation

  • jealousy

  • victimhood

  • passive aggression

  • attention-seeking

But even when they behave badly, women:

  • feel guilt

  • replay emotions

  • carry emotional memory

So shamelessness does not free women the way it frees men.

A woman cannot easily escape emotional awareness.


Why “shameless happiness” is mostly a male illusion

A shameless or drunk man may look carefree and happy.

A woman in the same state often looks:

  • restless

  • emotionally unstable

  • internally wounded

Because:

  • men escape pain by expression

  • women experience pain through emotion

Dark expression gives men relief.

Dark expression gives women more emotional chaos.


Why discipline feels heavy to both — but differently


Men and discipline

When consciousness is low:

  • discipline feels suffocating

  • self-control feels like punishment

  • responsibility feels unfair

Because inner instincts are still raw.


Women and discipline

When consciousness is low:

  • discipline feels emotionally starving

  • restraint feels like being unseen

  • silence feels like neglect

Because emotional needs are unmet.

Same discipline.

Different suffering.


What temporary happiness looks like


Men

Low-level happiness comes from:

  • power

  • dominance

  • expression without shame

“I feel good because I can do whatever I want.”


Women

Low-level happiness comes from:

  • validation

  • attention

  • being desired

  • emotional reassurance

“I feel good because I feel wanted.”

Both are temporary relief, not fulfilment.



What raises consciousness — differently

Men evolve through

  • meditation

  • self-control with awareness

  • refining aggression into strength

  • observing impulses without acting

Power becomes calm.

Women evolve through

  • emotional awareness

  • self-worth beyond validation

  • inner safety

  • spiritual grounding

Emotion becomes stable.


What true happiness looks like at higher consciousness

A conscious man

  • disciplined without suppression

  • strong without aggression

  • silent without restlessness

His inner and outer power align.

A conscious woman

  • expressive without chaos

  • soft without weakness

  • calm without emotional hunger

Her inner and outer emotions align.



The core truth

Low-consciousness happiness:

  • men → freedom to express darkness

  • women → reassurance and validation

High-consciousness happiness:

  • both → inner and outer alignment at a higher level



From this we can conclude that,


Men are not bad.


Women are not complicated.

They simply start from different places


and must evolve through different paths.


When consciousness rises:

  • men stop needing darkness to feel alive

  • women stop needing validation to feel whole

That is when happiness becomes:

  • quiet

  • stable

  • deep

  • real

For both.
