Writing to the Illusion

It has been brought up that their are those who believe that what is written on this blog are critical of long standing institutions of peace and freedom and that a great disservice is done by seeming to demean them. Also it has been said that this writer believes himself to be above others and somewhat condescending toward teachers and institutions that have helped a great many.

When this person writes, it is to no one in particular. No one, either individually or collectively, is sought to be influenced. All that is written is written to and for the writer as a means of examination, to look into depths of the self and to see in the moment the effect of what is. Much of what is written can only be understood by the writer, for it comes out of the depths of the confused and the conflicted. You cannot be taught by another, you must find the truth for yourself. In order for you to realize truth one must be free of all that prevents one from seeing truth. So it seems that a person, if they at all serious, must negate. To negate, in order to realize something that is not a repetition of the conflict, confusion, and fear that is the content of ones own consciousness. A person needs to see in the moment what is the truth of that content. Not to posit blame but to see and understand the origin of ones own conflict and the result of that conflict. To realize what it is that gives life and energy to the continuity of conflict that is the self that knows. So if the writer sees that ideals and institutions are the result of this conflict, then one will attempt to write down the source of that which contributes to the repetition of that conflict. It is to create a revolution within that frees the mind from the bonds of idealistic tradition. To rely on the past is to relinquish the freedom of the moment and the possibility of understanding that transcends the harbingers of conflict and fear. Each individual must realize just how much they are influenced and controlled by conditioned acquiescence. For the new to be the old must pass. Those who want to hold on to the security of the past are doomed to the repetition of its conflict, fear and violence. This writer really only says one thing over and over again only in different contexts and in different words....That is total freedom, for any one who reads this blog to be totally free. Freedom that is the beginning of an understanding that is not a repetition of the past. When you see and realize as an unconditioned entity then a new way of looking at events happens. It is understanding that goes beyond the mind that is ideologically caught in the illusion of a self that knows.

This writer and what is written is of no consequence. What is important is that one see and realize in the moment the true nature of the conditioned self. When you see the self as it is without any excuses, justification or validation then freedom is a possibility. That freedom is the beginning of the new and never before, which "is" from moment to moment.
