The world is full of mystery

The world is full of mystery! I often think that "the biggest room in the Universe is the room for improvement!" That room is between our ears and caged in our ribs in a system unique, subtle, and powerful. It absolutely depends on others for its launching into competency. 

Those others, through no fault but the accident of birth and the dynamics of the subconscious mind--which has no waking awareness or sense of person, values, or anything else but data storage, pass on *their* acquired limits to their children. These limits were, long ago, formed through the necessity of very specific conditions and environments.

These are now in this day thrown all on to the Wold Stage, each sensing as if its own paradigm is the absolute and only truth. Yet there are a few who have gone past the machinery of the mind and actually can think clearly in the present, with accurate perception, able to tell fact from fiction and emotional reaction from reality. It is our sport and mission to suppress these people, even to crucify them, because they are a danger to our habitual comfort of unexamined beliefs.

Like a drug, this is a temporary fix, and like a drug, because it is the general habit of the Race, it may kill us. The ways and understandings of our potential saviors are now starting to be understood and revealed true and practical by science, and even economics. And yet it may be too late. The drug of belief, necessary in infancy, is deadly in later years. 

This is mostly because it is not part of any culture to understand and know that it is not the only valid or even useful culture. It may be for a time and in a place, but we, as Humanity, no longer live there. But we do not know this, precisely because of our habituated and illusory limits. 

These limits, though false, are harder to kick than cigarettes, heroin, or alcohol. And again, it is because of our blindness both to the disease and the cure. There is a cure: It resides in the same place as the heart and brain which are pathetically limited to ancient mental chains through long practiced habit. And again, it cannot bloom in isolation, though the isolation of deep poersonal introspection and work is necessary for its fulfillment. 

Yet this work can be done, and may yet miraculously save the whole of us if we can but hold each others hands in courage and do the do. If I have a prayer for humanity, prayer being primarily and in reality only a tool for self-adjustment if used properly, my prayer is that we do this work before it is too late for all of us.
