there are still people who HAVE BEEN ON THIS LIST FOR A WHILE who still don't
get the fundamentally mystical nature of the MOQ, even though this is an
explicit feature of the MOQ - ie DQ.
this first error leads to an avalanche of misconceptions.
there is mystery at the heart of everything - every finitude reveals itself
infinite upon closer inspection. the hologram is a good analogy here.
in other words all parts contain the whole and the whole is infinite, as it
cannot be differentiated.
tat tvam asi. you are this whole. the world is an allegorical/analogical
projection/correspondence of your self - your inner being. this is the domain
of myth; only mythopoetry can decode this relationship twixt inner and outer.
once this point is grasped it becomes clear that the only efficacious way to
change the world is to become more and more conscious. by bringing into
consciousness those elements that were unconscious we disarm them, and not only
that; we also release the energies that these habitual patterns were stymying.
this process of recognition and release transforms the self and by extension
the world.
"the world has not to be put in order: the world is order incarnate. it is for
us to put ourselves in unison with this order, to know what is the world order
in contradistinction to the wishful-thinking orders which we seek to impose on
one another"
this miller quote says it well. the world-order, the Tao, is perfect. the world
is not the problem. the problem is the 'wishful-thinking orders' that we
project onto it and ourselves.
see the change! the world is not fucked. it is perfect. all the war, misery,
hate, greed etc etc - it is the perfect refracted reflection of our unconscious
inner state, and therefore the perfect tool with which to bring this state into
consciousness. (if we keep being confronted with it we eventually have to deal
with it).
gandhi knew this;
eckhart tolle knows this and expresses it with simple precision.
ram dass is good too.
do you see? do you see how politics, economics, ideologies of all stripes:
these are detours, dead-ends. they can accomplish nothing if they are not
predicated on a change in individual consciousness.
the question i would like to ask is that if, as i imagine, we are in the midst
of this evolutionary process, which will culminate in the integration of human
consciousness as a collective 'gaian' mind, will this herald a new static level
above intellect?
