In the mastery of myself \r\nI dwell, as I think, \r\nin this reign where\r\nthere is no democracy, \r\nunless I am choice itself,\r\ninstead of the chooser\r\nbecause upon each act \r\nthere is biased thought, \r\na judgment that suits behavior, \r\na behavior that follows belief, \r\nthe belief of freedom \r\nwithin a limited fan \r\nof possibilities, \r\nwhere... \r\n\r\nWhatever I think \r\nis already trapped \r\nwithin the limits of concepts \r\nand their definitions. \r\n \r\nWhat is a belief \r\nhas not liberty \r\npainted upon itself;\r\nthe entrapment of thought \r\nis belief, and its result, \r\nideology. \r\n\r\nThe purest form of ideology \r\nare concepts, \r\nso subtle is this belief \r\nthat doubting \r\nconceptualizations \r\nmight seem irrational, \r\nunnatural, even inhuman,\r\nthus we create what is real\r\nthrough the illusion of thought, \r\nacting as if there were nothing else\r\neach time I believe I am who you are not. \r\n\r\nBelief by itself has \r\nno goodness or badness, \r\nno greatness or shallowness, \r\nitself as a concept it is \r\na mental representation of reality, \r\na way to master the impossible to control, \r\nthe greatness beyond ourselves, \r\nthe trees and its mansions, \r\nthe flowers and its fashions,\r\nthe teas and its satisfactions, \r\nthe powers and its interactions,\r\nand in the contemplation \r\nof those beliefs lies\r\nthe wisdom of love,\r\nbeyond the judgments of faith,\r\nthe contemplation \r\nof each aspect of ourselves, \r\nuntil ourselves becomes it all.  \r\n\r\nIn the awareness of the other, \r\nthe other becomes oneself \r\nas time evaporates \r\ninto the infinity of my love, \r\nin being, love, and the wanting \r\nto be the master disappears, \r\nthe struggle dissipates \r\nas I lie submissive \r\nto the experience, \r\naware of my thoughts,\r\ncontemplating their nature,\r\naware of my nature,\r\ncontemplating the experience\r\nwithin and beyond \r\nthe concept of myself,\r\nlove as being,\r\nnot feeling,\r\nlove as wisdom,\r\nnot cognition,\r\nlove as experience,\r\nnot knowledge,\r\nlove as you,\r\nlove as me,\r\nlove as it all,\r\nin contemplation of love,\r\nexperience aware of itself,\r\n... love. \r\n<\/pre>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
