The Narcissus Effect

The narcissus effect plays on this universal narcissism. You look deep into the souls of other people, fathom their inmost desires and you reflect it back to them. Your ability to reflect their psyche gives you great power over them. They may even feel a tinge of love. This is simply the ability to mimic another person, not physically, but psychologically. And it is immensely powerful because it plays upon the unsatisfied self love of a child. No one can resist being harmoniously reflected in the outside world,. Even though you might well be manufacturing it for their benefit and for deceptive purposes of your own. As grossingan remarks. The truth is generally seen, rarely heard.
