"THE
TRUTH ABOUT SURVIVAL"
Master Konstantin Komarov
Why
should a modern man worry about his survival? Our life is set,
comfortable, convenient and predictable. Our countries take care of
our
safety. Qualified doctors take care of our health. Producers and
grocers provide us with enormous amounts of food. Manufacturers and
retailers supply an abundance of clothing to us. So where is the need
for our independent efforts? The world around us is stable,
predictable, and secure. Don't we firmly know what will happen to us
tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, and a week later?
The main danger for a person today is hidden behind the habit of being
satiated and comfortable, behind lack of desire to think about the
future, and inability to change the set patterns of life, even for a
short time. Thus the person loses his main quality - SURVIVAL - i.e.
the ability to adapt to different conditions of existence. The
powerful natural instincts of human beings fall into the deepest
sleep, the skills that were once inherent gradually die, huge reserves
of the organism remain forever untapped and unutilized. All our lives
and futures consist of is everyday trifles and worries, conflicts and
irritation, evening fatigue,
diseases, and approaching old age.
Facts tell us that 80% of the people that die in extreme circumstances
do not die of hunger or thirst, nor from fatal effects of the
surroundings, but from frustration, fear and disbelief in their own
strength, from lack of awareness of their own potential, from being
used to laziness and comfort.
Facts tell us that even persistent and harsh martial arts training or
bodybuilding in a gym only very minimally raise the chances of
survival in a real confrontation.
Facts tell us that over the past ten years, more and more often we've
heard the word WAR and it no longer happens in a far away land, but in
our own countries.
Someone who has tried at least once to check himself and find his own
limits, knows that these limits practically do not exist. In order to
understand yourself, you have to test yourself. There's no other way.
No books, or instructions, or stories from experienced people will
help. The ones who have tried will tell you -- survival is not your
equipment, the skill of making a fire, catching a fish, or building a
shelter.
SURVIVAL
IS THE INNER CONFIDENCE OF A PERSON IN HIS OWN ABILITIES. IT IS THE
UNDERSTANDING OF ONE'S SELF, A SPECIAL WAY OF THINKING AND PERCEIVING
THE WORLD AROUND YOU.
Survival is only a part of the whole layer of human culture - the
culture of personal safety. Survival is not only survival in the wild
nature or in the extremes of combat. It is first and foremost survival
in human society, the preservation and development of your own self,
movement and progression along your own independent road. The most
difficult task is to survive in human society while remaining a
complete and real Person.
We're all forced to walk independently along this road in life, and along this road there are questions like: "How do I orient myself in the forest?" "How do I obtain water and food in the desert?" "How do I avoid robberies and criminal attacks?" "How do I survive without money in an unfamiliar city?" "How do I live when I don't want to live?!!!"
These questions are just the beginning - the first and most simple ones.
The main
thing is to understand that we already are on this path and cannot
remove ourselves from it!
The main thing is to be honest with yourself and to remain yourself in
any situation!
The main thing is to believe that your abilities are endless, to
believe in yourself!
I wish you success on your path!
With respect,
Konstantin Komarov
