creation...

Creation could only occur free of fear, time, thought and therefore conflict. The gestures which have been occurring born of the human mind, the so-called civilizations, have not been creative, but merely false, temporary assertions of the platform of personality which has a stranglehold on life through humankind. They have been one frightened, deluded state after another, always asserting a so-called "new order" - always "protected" by the entertainments of wealth, tradition, religion and adherence to formulas, the violent force of war, killing and despoilment of life with which we have become all too familiar.

We must understand not just the branches of human disorder, but the very root of it. Now look, this is no light matter. Not something that you can read about here as a concept and go back to your life and think about. What I am asking is, what is the actual root of human disorder? And currently all human life is this disorder - humans are at war, despoiling the planet, unable to come together and do the right thing, and yet we talk about, "proud families", national pride, and religious righteousness. People who believe that there is a fixed order that is maintained by politics, tradition, religion or "respectability" are living a delusion. This is the assertion of a dependent mind, a conflicted mind, and such a mind is violent. So what is the root of this? Can we understand, and perhaps it would end in ourselves? Isn't the root of disorder the stranglehold of personality as it separates and maintains its separation from the fact of consciousness? That phenomenon in the human mind by which a secondary entity, the "me" has separated from the fact of consciousness and claims control? Please look at this. There is the fact... the burning "isness" of life, and then there is this sense of "me" from which a sense of ownership emerges, a sense of "control." Is this phenomenon possible? Isn't consciousness factually only one thing? It is.

The key to creation, necessarily free of this stranglehold, would rest in the same place that action would occur if this stranglehold did not exist. Action is action... so, simply living, simply being aware...awareness of the fact of creation, but necessarily with a mind which sees the actual falsness of that sense of "personality," "me," separate from "you." Awareness with a mind that sees the truth: that it IS the fact of creation. Yes, the information in your brain is slightly different from mine, but at the burning point of creation, in which each being must live, any movement of a psychological "me, separate from you," is obviously a conflict in the mind and takes that being out of the fire of creation, and into the process of misery and delusion.

Conflict is like a snare trap where any "attempt to get out of it" makes the trap tighter, more ferocious, more powerful because both the conflict and the attempt have their roots in will - in personal will. The only chance for freedom is in the instantaneous realization that consciousness itself is not based in will. There would be the intelligence required to move freely - there could be no conflict.
