FANTI ACTS
____________
To talk about something is to
make it smaller than it is;
to think about something is
to make it larger than it is;
to do neither is to do things
right --
…(and be non delusional)
Apply this to what you call
“yourself” --
then stand back and take a good,
cool gander at it.
Bruno’s Soliloquy On Behalf Of All Men:
”I exist most clearly to my mind –
-- when under siege --
-- primarily by me-ge .”
On one world their view of a
certain matter is thus:
Men are not asleep & confused
-- words
are;
men are just unfortunate, Collateral-Victims
in the affair.
(So -- there!)
Everyone’s mind knows there is
a gigantic “secret” – AND everyone would like
to know what it is -- BUT
everyone quickly gives up…except
the privileged-few --
-- who do not like being called
that --
-- since they do not see in
what way they are “privileged."
(Soreheads!)
To be normal you must care about
what
other people think about you,
and to be really
normal you must care primarily about what other people think about what
you think.
(Then of course for them to
be normal,
they must feel the same about
you), and
this establishes a most interesting
situation……well,
not so much “interesting” as
it is humorous……..well,
not really humorous in a way
that
normal people would find funny….which
is probably why
they don’t,
“find it” -- it flies right past them,
(or better put: passes right
thru them).
The true ha-ha’s lie in the
fact that everyone receives their thoughts from the same place,
so whatever differences there
appear to be between people’s thoughts are strictly superficial;
pigs in tuxes, or pigs in overalls
-- they’re still pigs.
…(Maybe those other-world creatures
are on to something
with their view of it being
only words that are confused,
and unenlightened, and the pigs
themselves – A.O.K.)
(“I never did trust, 'inchoate',
[or prepositions in general].”)
Although there are plenty in
name -- in truth,
there are no systems you can
study which will
teach you to -- WISE
UP;
no system can -- wise-you-up;
being WISED-UP
is the antithesis of being taught
anything by anyone
When you have WISED-UP
one of the main things you are
then wise TO is --
systems & teachings of all
stripes & squares.
A man, WISED-UP
did not get so
through a teaching of any kind;
he got WISED-UP
in spite of all the teachings.
This is what being WISED-UP
is all, all about;
being -- “Too hip for words” -- not,
too hip to be described
in words -- but,
too hip to be taken in
by words.
The distinction between ordinary
people,
and a WISED-UP
MAN is
that
the six billion who don’t know
-- believe that they do,
while the WISED-UP
guy has forgotten the supposed meaning of the word, “believe.”
(“It’s FAR
too close to, ‘Non Wised-Up’ for comfort!”)
One man had a really stupid seeing
eye dog
that mistook him whenever he
tried to go to
a certain place,
(not “mistook” him for someone
else,
but took him mistakenly where he didn’t want to go).
He would tell the dog quite
plainly his desired destination,
and the creature would turn
right around, and
blithely ignore his instructions.
The man became so frustrated
that he sought the advice of an expert, who told him:
”The place you say you want
to go is special,
and it requires special effort
to get there,
and there is only one person
on this entire planet who
understands your special need
-- and that is your dog,”
and the man vigorously objected:
”That cannot be -- you
do not know how ignorantly he acts in response to my clearly stated desire,”
to which the expert calmly replied:
”Ah, but what you call his ignorant
actions in regard to
where you say you want to go
is the very information you need to get there.”
The man appeared puzzled; the
expert continued:
”Everything your uncooperative
dog does
is precisely everything that
you presently CANNOT do;
what more need you know?!
A man’s ignorance is the yin
to his non ignorance’s yang;
what you call your sleeping-state-of-mind
is merely the reverse of your
sought-for, awakened one.”
The expert leaned close, and
said:
”Don’t you GET
IT? -- Your dog does --
he just doesn’t know it, (which is to say):
he doesn’t have the vocabulary to understand what
your talking-brain is
dreaming of.”
It suddenly all came to the
man, and never did he look at his dog in the same way again.
On some worlds this story would
constitute a
complete system for enlightenment,
and
freedom from white-cane-consciousness.
Tap, tap, -- "Hello? -- is anyone there?!"
The reason you should not listen
to anyone else
regarding man’s mental reality
is not because of their stupidity,
(for they are no more so in
this area than you);
the danger is that when men
seek expertise in the incorporeal realm they have an inherent desire to
believe
that someone must be knowledgeable
therein,
(since they obviously are not),
and have a strong tendency to
overlook the fact that
they do not.
In physical affairs you can
always determine whether a man, (such as a mechanic), knows what he is
doing
by the tangible results of his
effort,
but in non material matters
you have no observable,
tactile evidence to go by;
the basis on which you accept
another’s expertise in the man-made-up, mental reality
is as a leprechaun judging an
elf beauty contest.
When trying to weigh & compare
evidence,
and determine the truth in the
mental courtroom,
you have nothing to go by –
and for one simple reason:
there is nothing there.
This is why “belief, faith,
& conviction” are the cornerstones of man’s judicial, mental battlegrounds,
in the glaring, but ignored
absence -- nay, impossibility
of “knowledge” thereabout.
Christians believe there
is a God,
but they know there is
no Allah.
Men with lead dogs can only
believe that
awakening exists,
but are at least certain
that they are presently asleep.
You only have one dog;
whether he remains blind is
up to you;
whether he appears TO
you to be blind
is entirely dependent on your
finally realizing that:
you
only have one dog.
