Guest guest Posted March 9, 1999 Report Share Posted March 9, 1999 A letter to the world. It is time to break the factories that create clay vessels in which to contain the freedom of men, women, and children. It is time to break the myriad vessels that line the walls and hallways; each one containing a soul; each one with a 'label', with a 'judgement', to identify the soul contained. So many vessels, that the names of the souls are of no consequence. You that are man and claim to be God above man, you that are man and claim to be Messiahs above man, you that are man and claim to be Masters, Avatars, and Gurus, above man, you are false. You have no control over the absolute. No more more than I; no more than anyone else. You have mistaken 'the' mystery as 'your' mystery. You have taken possesion of this mystery as your own. It is by this action that you have condemned the souls contained in the vessels as now, even you, place many labelled vessels in the library. You openly condemn men, women, and children for their 'primative' understanding that is inferior when compared to your 'cultured civility'. Yet in the same breath you laugh at yourself when you recognize that once, you shared the view of those that seek your understanding. You recognize 'your' teachings and you beg for forgiveness to those that would judge you. Why do you feel judged? This IS your 'shame' but then, an 'enlightened one' need not feel shame for, surely, this is all just an illusion. Right? Or, as I would ask, as one among you, did you stop before the final lesson of 'What is, is'. This does not speak well for you that claim to be many life times old. Perhaps, you have not escaped the re-birth cycle after all. Perhaps, 'you' are condemned by that which we all claim is 'one and sacred' and you will stay as man until you release your mystery. Your 'absolute understanding' is a possesion. Your 'absolute unwillingness' to share what you know as a logical, rational, and 'colorful' human being is 'absolute resistence to change'. Possesion and resitence, could this also point to fear? Fear of what? Is it not you who preach 'posses nothing', 'total surrender', and 'fearlessness'? What of these things then? What say you now? Still not 'real' enough for you? Then, consider: Let us talk together to the child that watches his drug addicted mother beaten senseless by his alcoholic father. Let us share this 'illusion' with this young mind that will one day control an aspect of our future. Let us create entire 'nations' of hunger, sacrafice, oppression, crime, ethnic cleansing and violence so that we may take 'our holy war' away from the places that we live. Let us create 'enemies' to attack in the name of 'goodness' and in the name of 'our' God (our=Possesion). Look around you 'visionaries', these things sit at your door step even still where the world that is, is. However, within your civility, you need not bomb or kill these. No. You 'choose', and I mean 'choose' as in 'free will' regardless of your good intentions that pour from your mouths but fall short on action, to ignore these people that live next door, a block away or in your country. Your actions equate to one man throwing buckets of water at the sun to extinguish the flames. Let us create institutions that isolate men from men, women from women, children from children, men from women, parents from children, 'this from that' so that we my 'control' the minds of men. Let us name 'this' prison and 'that' home. Let us ignore that there is too thin a distinction here to feel safe in knowing what side of the line that we find ourselves. Band-aids serve no other purpose than to hide our pain from others. These band-aids that you share that speak of good intention, love, joy, peace, prosperity only hide the fear, loneliness, and pain. Show me your cure for these and I shall bow and withdraw my judgement of the Gods, Messiahs, Masters, Avatars, and Gurus. You speak of a 'state' that you yourselves can not achieve. Yet, you judge the rest of us by depriving us the things we need to help nurse our conscience and country back to health. We look to our legislators,polititians, and religious leaders to help us. First, it is important to note that they, just as us, have no idea what is going on. They are like you and I. Searching for an answer. Until then, they are bombarded with scandal, false accusations, and perceived as those that are against us. So why then this mess? Is it any wonder we can not attract 'good' people to these positions? After all, we 'choose', refer to definition above, to ignore that they to have personal lives that are not unlike our own. Why should we ask a President or a Prime Minister or any world leader to be 'more' human than we? And why do we cringe when we find out that they are? Should we not focus on the changes they propose? Should this not be the only yard stick that we use to measure? We, as mankind the collective, have failed. Our global system of politics, religion, and science was not made by these men and women. These systems evolved to meet our needs. The system evolved as we evolved. We needed to be 'right' so much that we fail to see that others are also right. We declare war against those that have equal claim to the truth. Is it any wonder then, that through the generations that follow, we find ourselves, once again, fighting these wars? We must see that the arguement is the arguement and in order to break free, to evolve into a society where we all wish to live, we must break this arguement. Where would we be if we dedicated all of our defense budget towards Cancer? AIDS? Homelessness? Hunger? Social development? Infrastructure? Reaching towards a global homeostasis? Education? Free Medical? Where would we be if we, as a planet, focused on development of space technologies? The mining of asteroids and other planets realized as a new source of natural resources? The quest to find other planets that could support a ever increasing population? These do not seem like science fiction to me. In conclusion, it is time to change our ways. We may never forget what we have done in the name of humanity and we should not forget. However, to judge our future by our past is to condemn all mankind for all generations until we finally lose our place in the universal matrix and become extinct. Regards. Tim Harris Please forward this letter to all that would hear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
