Examples of Transcendental Thought

Free Thought

Confidence

(No Title Given)

The Clockwork Orange

Free Thought

"Goodness is something to be chosen. When a man cannot choose he ceases to be a man."

(No Title Given)

Alex, the main protagonist, is overly confident in the intro to the movie. This over-confidence leads him to commit terrible crimes and leads into the rest of the story.

This man has to reassure himself sometimes. Let's hope it gives him a little confidence!

If you can't think for yourself, then you are a sub-human slave to another.

This man can't think for himself and therefore does not posses free thought. He even has to cheat on an ethics exam!

Confidence

Free Thought

Dashboard - Modest Mouse

You Only Live Once - The Strokes

Self-Reliance

"Oh, the dashboard melted,

but we still have the radio."

Dual Survival

"Some people think they're always right,

Others are quiet and uptight,

Others they seem so very nice, nice, nice, nice, nice, oh,

Inside they might feel sad and wrong."

Importance of Nature

Cast Away

"Things aren't going to well,

but we'll still make it through.

This TV series cannot state the art of self-reliance more readily. They tell you to rely upon yourself, because in a survival situation, you could be all you have.

There are people who try and force their ideas upon you, and afterward they realize that that is the wrong approach.

Importance of Nature

Self-Reliance

(No Title Given)

After a terrible plane crash, a wealthy businessman is stranded on a deserted island. His busy life is halted and he struggles to survive, but still finds comfort and friendship in nature.

Calvin & Hobbes

Self-reliance

Importance of Nature

Heart it Races - Dr. Dog

Ocean of Noise - Arcade Fire

Calvin and Hobbes embodies self-reliance to the fullest. The tiger in the image above is really just a stuffed animal, but Calvin sees it otherwise.

Without nature we become desensitized by emotionless machines. The man above is hoping to find some food in the wasteland. He never will...

"Heart it races alone,

Heart it races alone..."

Left in the morning,

While you were fast asleep,

Into an ocean of violence,

A world of empty streets.

In an ocean of noise,

I first heard your voice,

Ringing like a bell,

As if I had a choice, oh well!

My heart will continue to beat and want without you.

In the noise of urban development, the narrator hears the voice of nature. (Ex. A bird call.) And the sound stuck with him, and he can't forget it. As the narrator goes someplace in early morning, "nature" is still inanimate. And in the violence of urban life, the narrator has an epiphany, realizing that nature isn't present.
