Something About Me and My Book:: Imagine sitting on the sofa in your living room, completely comfortable with nothing at all to bother you. You are not hungry, thirsty, or tired. You are not cold, hot, or sick. You are not expecting company. You don’t miss any friends or family members. The telephone doesn’t ring. You are not worried about bills coming due or your job or business. You do not have to take a shower or use the restroom. You don’t have to do laundry or any other chores. You are not bored or sleepy. You are not curious about anything, and absolutely no factor of any kind makes you uncomfortable, worried, excited, or upset. You are simply and continuously calm and comfortable sitting on that sofa. What would be the first motion of your body if nothing bothered you? This simple experiment leads us to the fact:
WE DO NOT MOVE UNLESS WE ARE BOTHERED (Fact 2). Further experiments prove that every single human motion is based on only seven facts.

Rafii's 7 Facts:
Fact 1 - We always want to be comfortable.
Fact 2 - We make motions only when we lose our comfort (balance).
Fact 3 - A loss of balance always generates a want in us.
Fact 4 - There is always suffering and joy associated with every motion.
Fact 5 - The more we suffer, the more we enjoy.
Fact 6 - The result of our wants and fears determines our motion.
Fact 7- The degree of our personality and physical characteristics, as well as mental and environmental conditions, determines the level of our wants and fears; we perform motions according to the outcomes of our wants' and fears' sum.

Every human is a machine that works perfectly per its specification, only affected by environmental conditions. The specification and the property (DNA) of each person are a combination of the three following groups of characteristics:
1- The degree of each personality characteristic
2- The degree of each physical characteristic
3- The degree of each mental condition

The author’s experiments and a chain of logic prove that free will does not exist; we are driven only by the outcomes of our wants and fears.
Emotions such as love, anger, hate, envy, joy, and sadness are feelings. These feelings mirror certain chemical transactions in our bodies and brains. Consumption of alcoholic beverages makes us feel happy or sad due to chemical transactions in our bodies. Using drugs or smoking marijuana changes our mood by creating certain chemicals in our brains. Listening to poetry or music generates specific chemicals in our brains that result in specific emotional reactions. Depression, anxiety, and manic behavior could become our norm through the consumption of certain chemical formulas…

There is nothing such as emotions beyond our bodies. Emotional feelings mirror chemical transactions in our bodies and brains, and no independent power like free will or decision making exists in human nature.
