A Worthy Effort

We share a universal consciousness with all of the rest of the people on Earth since the beginning of time whether we like it or not. When a young man out of law school in America I began to notice in a more serious way what is going on around me. I was beginning to feel a part of the world as a worker in its program. In a little while, I noticed I was feeling more and more depressed and frightened of the world. I began to sense things were wrong on a large scale and getting worse at a fast rate. I was putting it together with things I had  read and heard as I grew and forming a cynical attitude about everything as a whole. It was to grow and grow for many years. I left several jobs and a marriage folded up on me and my wife and children. This is a short version of what happened.

What I am seeing now is it was the beginning of a pattern of taking somewhat serious looks into matters of the world and wanting to know: is this world being directed purposefully by a gang, large or small, of evil criminals who are disguised as patriots and religious leaders and so on or is it really just running out of control with nobody actually in charge of anything? Today, I see finally the truth of it. It is all of us together making the world of humans what it is and has been at all times. It had a beginning, a cause, though, and so it can be ended. 

That is the news I want to spread to everyone. It began with the first one who submitted to service to a symbol rather than live in the actual truth of things as they are. This substitution was very dangerous and so dangerous was it that it has grown into what is happening worldwide now. A man killed his brother. When anyone makes the jump from truth to symbol it begins a corruption of human intelligence. Repeated, it makes the human mind, heart, and soul (one thing really) makes the psychological entity we are go lazy and weak. By now, we are awful dumb as compared to how humans are naturally. Few natural humans are living anymore as adults.  Nearly all free humans are young children who are being ignored and abused by adults. But it is so important to know that the cause is everybody who has joined a movement “to become” some symbolized product as part of some symbolized group; people everywhere are striving to become something he or she is not. And, that is practically everybody over the age of seven. 

It is so important to see that any effort to control even one human (oneself, for instance) is wasted effort and a very dangerous practice. It is all going to be symbolic, has to be. See? If I strive to control anything in the world about me or the inner world, in me, I set up an internal conflict. Who can win such a war? 

Such a war is a war between the controller and the controlled and both are who I am. And, always, symbolism has been the cause of all the suffering we have tried  to end by control, which, as we know, has never worked. Listen closely for any inquiry that begins in “how”. Immediately doubt its validity. It will be grounded in symbolism. Do not agree or disagree with me, find out for yourself. Never agree to serve words, theories, ideas, idols, flags, etc. Moving in that direction will increase the strength of the actual cause of suffering rather than lessening the suffering. We need desperately to end all this “becoming”. Simply ending it, we will be free. A free mind is to be seen in a very young child. It exists. Do not “become” like that child to influence the cessation of all controlling by humans of every region everywhere on Earth once you see it is another worthy effort. Rather, just look upon the controlling way of the world of which you are a part with all your attention and let that understanding burn away all efforts at becoming. By love you will see you have been inoculated with disillusion.
