A Manufactured Reality

All organizations, organize to influence the thoughts and actions of others.  It is this organizational mentality that is the systemic cause of thoughts need to be controlled and channeled.  And it is not something one is normally aware of.  Reality for most of us is a contrived institutional prison of self deluded fear and suspicion. But we cover it up with the illusion that we are somehow in control of what we do and believe.  The reality is that you have been conditioned from birth on, to "believe" what you are told and accept it as truth.  All of us have a deep seated need to be controlled.  Because we are a social animal we seek security in "everything" we believe and act upon.  If you are controlled then you are part of the organizational mentality.  Even your rebellion, indifference and revolution is part of the desire to be controlled.  As long as you exist in this manufactured reality you can never realize the truth of the absolute moment.  To seek to be free from it only strengthens the desire for another controlled enviornment.  Because we are always seeking a means to an end, it is a never ending system of organize and reorganize.

So can a person escape this wheel of illusion?  If you mean can we "do" something "Study" some method that will take us "beyond" to some enlightened state of free thought?  The answer is in the question and as long as you ask the question you are seeking.  One who seeks only finds the illusion of a projected self.  Awareness of the self that is...is the first step.  There is no "path" only the self that is what it is.  Not what it wants to be but what it "is".  Truth and freedom are in the absolute moment.  A timeless awareness of what is.  A person is already free and the truth is that freedom.  Then the reality of others is just that.  Their illusion is of no consequence.  One is the unconditioned truth of the absolute moment.  One lives that truth which has no definition and is wholly of the unknown.
