We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

Elizabethan Values
Context
Good vs. evil
Shakespeare uses the battle of Macbeth
against Duncan to represent what was
going on at the moment with James (the
1st) developing the royal court of England
and the theory of the divine right.
(deriving his right to rule directly from
the will of God)
Science and Superstitions
Science was undeveloped and people
sought for explanations in life. There
were no reasonable explanations so belief
and superstitions were created.
Elizabethan beliefs
In Elizabethan times they thought that
the country was stable only if the King is
good and virtuous. They also believed
that evil occurs in darkness which is a
reoccurring theme in Macbeth. The play
was considered a thriller- a threat to an
anointed King and the perceived evil
behind the threat and alluded to the
Gunpowder Plot 1605.
Masculinity and femininity
Masculinity and femininity are not
portrayed in uniform ways in Macbeth.
Although women are not fragile, they are
not strong either. Lady Macbeth goads
her husband into murdering Duncan, and
she sometimes possesses more masculine
traits of ambition and follow-through.
However, she also demonstrates
weakness, because she is the one who
falls apart in the end. The witches are
another example of this contradictory
strong feminism. They are even
described as men in some ways
Heaven and Hell
Shakespeare's debt to Scripture is
profound; biblical imagery is woven into
every play. No writer has integrated the
expressions and themes found in the
Bible into his own work more
magnificently than Shakespeare. Religion
and Heaven and Hell was a huge belief.
Perhaps this is one reason for Macbeth’s
downward spiral as he realised what he
was doing and everything that occurred
in the aftermath was God’s way of
punishing him for his sins.
