The
more things change, the more that city voices will talk about them;
things
appear to continually change due to city voices talking about them.
Men’s
thoughts are like an on going train that did not start out from any where.
A
real artist does not merely burn
bridges -- he is one.
The
progress on this one planet could be plotted by their myths going from
fables
concerning animals to ones involving technology.
The
band on which their reality was broadcast to the creatures of this one
world,
had
immediately adjacent it a bizarro cartoon channel which, unnoticed by everyone,
continually bleeds-into and mingles-with the authorized one.
Living
in your head can be
so
much fun
that
you stay in bed instead of
go
for a run;
a
world out there that you
live
through the skin,
and
one in here that is
bits
and pieces of random electronic transmissions.
Men
who make public proclamations of their worth in private feel the truth
to be woesomely otherwise
which
is what drives the overt assertions.
If
hippos believed that they should be better
hippos
men
would have new competition for space in the city.
One
reason that ordinary men say they do not understand what is going on in
life is because of the way the question is always put to them
(when life’s
mind plays 20 Questions with itself it has no intention of losing).
One
man decided the way to handle being human was to confine your feelings
to two possibilities: allow yourself (for instance) to
be either only: hungry or sleepy.
The
functional reality behind the idea of, The
Unmoved Mind
points
not to a state of having no thought,
but
to a mind that is not swayed from what it has realized
by other thoughts.
Men
spend their lives attempting to add to the drawing of their self,
seeking
to become in appearance, more and more complex,
while
the certain man ends up gradually reducing the drawing of himself,
and
in the process becoming less and less intriguing and difficult to understand.
There
is a certain intellectual dance-step that you are never shown
in
the collective’s ballroom in the city
(it resembles
a weighted symbiotic relationship between a hippo and a small bird
which was initiated
by needs of the former).
Men
believe it proper to offer supernatural gratitude to Earth for providing
them with the food they kill and pick which sustains their lifeeulogizes,
yet
overlook the fact that they too therefrom come.
Mortal
attempts to pay homage within a closed system
is
a zipper’s teeth giving way to the slide;
the
certain man recognizes what is worthy and what is praise worthy,
and
in that all in life is worthy, from him, no pretentious eulogies
are heard.
It
was recently noted here that if you have any doubt that you understand
precisely what, independent-thinking
is – your uncertainty is well founded – you do
not;
the
true indicator that you do
is that you lose interest in whether you do or not
(kinda like the finish line of everything involved with this sort of activity).
It
is said that the motivation for a man’s action is of supreme importance
--
even
superior to the action itself --
yet
his actions are all that counts:
The
unseen-eye-in-the-beam
is when you think:
“Something
invisible is troubling me, my thoughts perhaps or maybe my
emotions” --
the
thing thinking is
the source of the troubling, and the secret way out of the city.
The
psychological explanations men offer for themselves
(for their thoughts,
feelings & behavior)
are
statistical questionnaires filled out by the non existent.
It
is not really a matter of the certain man disliking his ordinary state
of mind so much that he feels it simply must changed, but rather rests
in his having discovered that the state can be
other than it normally is:
just
knowing this is what makes him pursue this kind of activity --
he
wants to achieve the other state of consciousness merely because it is
there
and
because from experience he knows he can
get to it.
You
cannot be objective -- only trans objective;
You
cannot be awake -- only super unsleeping;
you
cannot be enlightened -- only supremely out of the dark;
you
cannot be free -- only extraordinarily unfettered,
and
while you cannot actually know
anything,
you
can be unnaturally aware that no one ever does.
To
the independent thinker,
the
world’s Great Ideas
are like day laborers on a never ending city project.
The
way the certain man comes to know what he knows
is
through a process we might call: Ipse
Cogitatio -- He
himself thought it:
a
privately held certainty with no public proof.
There
are, Rules-of-Life --
but no one can know what they are --
--
that is one of
the Rules.
J
Those-who-know
and no longer give a damn have a ploy -- they never let on.
