To thwart whatever ideology we are confronted with,
To save the individual who has been made a prisoner by such an ideology,
One has to zero in on the individual, and thaw, through our piercing gaze,
the system of belief he is surrounded with.
Ideology begins in the roots of the individual,
In some cases he uses it to densify his existence, to transcend himself,
In others he burrows his way through his dried-up cracks.
These things always happen on the level of the individual.
By finding the point of contact between ideology and the individual.
Spot the point of contact, and occupy this space with presence,
Does ideology still get in ?

Many thanks to all.
This, I suspect, cannot be done unless the individual is starting to see through his ideology for himself. The defences, otherwise, are almost impregnable. This fortress falls to revolt, not invasion.
