"A strange game. The only winning move is not to play."

In this episode of Mystery School, we break down the most famous line from the 1983 classic WarGames. While the film focuses on a NORAD supercomputer discovering the futility of nuclear war, the concept of a "no-win scenario" has deep implications for our everyday lives, relationships, and spiritual growth.

We explore the Game Theory behind the quote and discuss why, in certain systems of control and conflict, the highest form of mastery is total non-participation.
