Inroduction to the World Unknown


I wanted to write today about the scene from Gulliver’s travels, the series. 
The link is here to watch.

Gulliver, a doctor by profession, returns after his long and amazing journey of sixteen years and more, which transformed him with the enlightenment that another dimension exists for the thought constructs, emotions and the life of humans and animals.
He talks about the unusual lands, the people, the cultures and understands the difficulty of assimilating this to the normal stereotypes of the prevailing travelogues and human social structures and civil laws.
Tom eagerly listens…
He admires him. The father who left him five years ago, came back from being dead with just memories burdened the ailing neural networks. 
He wasn’t crazy.
His frame was tall but frail, but tremulous with the emotions of the mustang in the valleys, the eyes sparkling in the deep sockets.. The hair  was just undulating with his animated choreography as he takes the audience of his friend, wife and the eager little boy.
“I wish I could’ve come with you… to see those Lilliputians, the yahoos and the noble Houyhnhnms, Dad”
He didn’t say that. 
He knew his mother does not like it or approve it. Life has been miserable.
He was presumed dead. 
After coming back, he brought hell with him. He needs to be sentenced to asylum. Unless of course he can retract the stories and get his acts together.
No one believed him.
He lived with the savages. It took a toll on him. There is no going back there to the wild.
He believed in truth. 
He believed that the authors of travelogues should under oath affirm that the descriptions and stories told are just truth and nothing but truth.
He is now tired.
Except for the spirit and the constant flow of memories, like the lava from the volcano of experiences. 
He cannot however think straight. 
At times he is the smartest man with his assessment of human nature, kindness and the admiration in the higher intelligence. Then at times he is just inanimate. 
He smells food, humans… nauseating sensory perceptions overwhelming his psyche.

-----------------------------------
 Folie à deux is a clinical syndrome with shared delusions from an inducer(Proxy) in parts or in full.
It was initially described by the French Lasègue and Falret in 1877. Two subjects, who live in a close relationship, in isolation, share delusional ideas based on the same themes.

Lazarus emphasized that two preconditions must exist before folie à deux can develop: first, an intimate emotional association between the inducer and affected person, and second a genetic predisposition to psychosis, such as blood relations with primary patient.
