Are Deadheads Free Thinkers?

Posted by jack mark on August 17th, 2016

Are you a Deadhead? Have you grown up listening to one of the greatest rock bands ever formed? Most obviously we are talking about the Grateful Dead. Music artists, bands, and other celebrities have fans, the Grateful Dead has Deadheads. Don't go by the name. These are peace-loving people. They just like their music and try to voice the wrongs that they find prevalent in the society. Does that make them perverts or traitors? It could, in the sight of people who can't tell right from wrong; people, who don't have the courage to oppose a thought or a tradition that is an exception to human values. They know in their heart of hearts that what they have been doing for so long or they have seen others do, is not right. But, they can't muster enough courage to stand against it. They can never be Deadheads. Just like the music of their favorite band, they like being free, free of all the evil and irrationality they find prevalent today. To put it in simpler words, they are free thinkers. There is a lot of logic and reason in what they say, do, and spread. You don't have to like what they are saying or doing; they wouldn't mind it either. However, as every human being, they have the right to nurture thoughts in their minds and speak what they feel is true.

We are free – at least this is what we are told. It is up to us what we call freedom and how we want to achieve it. Everyone has two sides – positive and negative; good and evil. The best people are those who nurture their positive side for the good of humanity and keep their negative sides at bay, always. This is what the yin yang symbol teaches us. Yin and yang can also be taken as the inseparable masculine and feminine energies. It is about combining the good and separating the evil. This is also freedom or the promotion of freedom, if you like.

You have to spread the good. Deadheads do that. You can also buy merchandise online with Grateful Dead emblem and spread free thinking and be recognized amongst like-minded people. Similarly, you can buy merchandise with the yin yang emblem online.

If you are free thinker or a deadhead for that matter, you should come out and clearly show what you are for and what you are against? There is no point hiding in the dark and thinking that everything will change itself.
