Most Consciousness studies are like 'dog chasing its own tail', as it has to study itself. To study itself, Consciousness has to stop 'thinking or exit from memory'. If Consciousness becomes quiet, all search ceases, outside world becomes clearly visible and there is bliss, with discretion to use memory.

It is a common, but mistaken notion of many if not most women writers. As an Independent Researcher, I would humbly submit that it is only sheer pursuit of pleasure (especially by the addicted) which motivates them. Rapists don't have or play with any idea of power, because it doesn't last long as any other power.
