Kukhona abantu ababizwa ngokuthi ama-Merchants of Chaos. Laba ngabantu abafuna indawo ebukeka kakhulu, ephazamisa kakhulu. I-merchant ngumuntu othengeyo futhi athengise izimpahla ngenzuzo. I-Chaos yilapho khona yonke into iphazamiseka khona noma unokudideka. Ngakho-ke i-Merchant of Chaos umuntu osakaza izindaba ezimbi ukwenza imvelo ibonakale iyingozi kakhulu kunokuba injalo, ukuze asizakale.

I-Newspapermen ishova imvelo ebusweni babantu bese ithi, “Bheka! Kuyingozi. Vula amehlo! Kuyamangaza. Vula amehlo! Kuyasongela.” Babika izingqinamba ezisongela ukwedlula zonke ngendlela eshaqisa kakhulu, okwenza kube kubi ukwedlula lokhu. Lo i-Merchant of Chaos. Ukhokhelwa ngezinga lokuthi angenza imvelo isongele. Ukulindela “izindaba ezinhle” kuwubuwula lapho ama-Merchants of Chaos esebenza khona.

Yini i-blackmailer kepha umuntu ozama ukuthola imali ngokutshela omunye umuntu ukuthi angenza imvelo ibe yingozi kakhulu?

I-Merchant of Chaos inamabutho amaningi, abantu abaningi abathembela ukuthola imali yabo endaweni eyingozi. Ngisho nodokotela abakhokhelwa ngenani labantu abasemphakathini ababenza kahle. Bakhokhelwa ngenombolo kwabagulayo. Ngokufanayo, uma ubungenabo ubugebengu, bekungeke kube namaphoyisa. Isibalo samaphoyisa sikunikeza inani lobugebengu okumele ngabe likhona. Ubugebengu obengeziwe, neningi lamaphoyisa. Ukugula okuthe xaxa, odokotela abaningi.

Kepha akusiyona ipolitiki kuphela, nentatheli kanye nabenzi bezikhali abenza imvelo isongele. Abantu abaningi bachitha impilo yabo yonke kuma-Chaos Merchants bezi bekhathaza wonke umuntu osondelane nabo ngokufa. Inani labantu abenze lokhu liphezulu impela—mhlawumbe libe linye kwabane. “Uma nje ngingagcina u-Henry ekhathazekile ngokwanele, wenza lokho engimtshela khona” ngokomqondo oyisisekelo. Basakaza ukudideka futhi bacasukile. “Ngiyazibuza ukuthi kungani u-Henry engahambanga phambili?” Kanjalo, benze u-Henry agule.

Kungijimisa umphakathi wonkana ukuthi imvelo kumele yenziwe ibonakale iyingozi. Vele, kunezindawo zangempela eziyingozi emvelweni. Kepha ayikaze ibe yingozi njengoba yenziwe yavela.

Noma yimuphi umuntu, noma kunjalo, ukholelwa ukuthi kunezindawo emvelweni yakhe ezixakile futhi angeke akwazi ukubhekana nazo. Lokhu singakusho ngokuqinisekisa ngokuphelele, noma ngabe sikhuluma no-Joe, u-Bill noma u-Pete, noma usopolitiki noma intatheli yamaphephandaba noma iphoyisa. Noma yimuphi umuntu onobuhlakani ovumayo engavuma nawe ukuthi imvelo, kanye nezingxenye ezithile zemvelo, kukhulu kakhulu kuye.

Ithonya Elithokozisayo

Noma yini eletha indawo ethule iyenqatshwa yilabo abafuna indawo ephazamisekile.

Scientology iyathuthuka endaweni ethile, imvelo iba nokuthula futhi ibe nokuthula. Hhayi kancane adventurous, kodwa ezothile. Usongo emvelweni luyancipha. Umuntu owayazi kakhulu ngaye, abanye nangokuphila, futhi obamba izinto kangcono, unenkinga encane kakhulu endaweni yakhe. Noma ingancishiswa kancane nje, iyancishiswa.

Lapho umuntu engasongelwanga imvelo kancane, uqala ukwenza kangcono. Ucabanga ukuthi angenza okuningi ngempilo. Angakwazi ukwedlulela phambili kancane futhi akwazi ukuthulisa abantu abaseduze kwakhe lapho bethuka noma bekhathazeka.

Ngakho-ke kunamaphuzu amathathu abalulekile okufanele uwaqaphele ekutholeni izixazululo zemvelo eyingozi:

1. Imvelo ibonakala iyingozi kumuntu—uzothola isivumelwano naye ngalokhu—futhi wenza izindlela ezithile zokubamba imvelo yakhe ukuze ingamlimazi.

2. Ama-Merchants of Chaos benza imvelo ibonakale iyingozi kakhulu endaweni ethile kanti iyikho ngempela.

3. Impilo yomuntu, umsebenzi kanye nesifiso sakhe sokwenza kahle empilweni kuya ngomqondo wakhe wokuthi imvelo iyingozi kangakanani. Uma ethola imvelo yakhe iyingozi kakhulu, uzohoxa ekusongelweni yimvelo. Kungenzeka abe nempilo ngokwengeziwe, asebenze futhi aphumelele uma ezwa ukuthi angaphatha kahle imvelo yakhe.

Ngokuqonda la maphuzu amathathu singathatha izinyathelo ukusiza noma ubani kangcono ngempilo yakhe.
