Dan: This is like saying I am free to sit here and write to you or I am free to get up and walk away in disgust. Freedom has nothing to do with patterns! It is synonymous with Dynamic Quality; the lack of patterns. Okay. Lets say I want to drive from Chicago to Miami. I am not going to choose a route that takes me through Sacramento, California. Not unless I have a practical reason for doing so. My determined destination precludes out-of-the-way detours like that. However! Lets say I decide to take a trip. Any trip. Any where. Now! I am free! I have no determined destination! I am following Dynamic Quality, the absence of all patterns. The fact whether I choose (or not) has no bearing on freedom. We must keep in mind though: ANY predetermined set of patterns we come up with all rely on preconditions that exclude Dynamic Quality, or the lack of patterns. Does this help? Or not?
