Responsibility
If you are a follower or a believer then you are always in a state of apprehension and in fear of rejection. You create limitations on yourself by narrowing your ability to accept the reality of the moment. Since birth you have been subjected to an onslaught of programing that has shaped your thinking and limited your ability to realize something that is not a conformity. Even if you have been a "rebel" all your life, that rebellion is just a symptom of your programming. Organizations say you must conform for the good of society. They tell you that there must be order and one must fall in line if one is to succeed and be part of the team whether it is religious, political, corporate or social in nature. Conformity is the greatest threat to freedom and understanding. Conformity that is the result of ones prejudice and the incessant call to be a "responsible citizen, worker, layman, church member or do-gooder". If a person is to realize the truth of the moment one must go beyond conformity and non-conformity, beyond responsibility and irresponsibility. One may realize in the moment a state of existence that is the whole of accepting all that goes on in the world and understanding that one is the world and that change starts with the individual. One accepts responsibility for all those that suffer at the hands of the religiously and politically greedy. In doing so one sees that one is a part of the problem and perhaps then a change comes in ones inner most consciousness. A person may then cease to contribute to organizational tyranny. A person does not become a non-conformist, instead ones consciousness under goes a revolution in which something totally new is realized. There is no blame to posit, no enmity toward or calculated disturbance. A person does not seek to destroy, but only to realize the self and how all conflict and violence has originated with the individual. If you are the world then you are its change, its realization, its illumination. Do not wait for others to organize and condition your mind into another illusion. Break away from the conformity of organizational greed and prejudice. It starts with you. Freedom that is not a conformity or a responsibility, or a duty to rules of law or social contract. There is no expectation only the acceptance of what is and the change that comes with a consciousness that is unconditioned. A consciousness that is not influenced by the collective and its organizational violence.
When we talk of responsibility that is a realization of the whole, we do not mean responsibility that is the result of ones attachment to the conditioned collective. It is rather a state of existence that does not "know" responsibility as the defined. A person does not "know" they are being responsible as an action or reaction to stimulus. It is action in the moment that is out of love which is the flowering of the unconditioned. That which is without expectation and needs no acknowledgement. When we speak of love we mean the selfless, that which is without the known and the state of knowing. There is no projected self that knows. Which means there is no comparison, measurement, judgement, choice or choosing. In the emptiness of the absolute moment there is total freedom. Within that total freedom is the illumination of unknown.
