I have a friend who talks of detaching from ego. I am having personal experiences over and over that I believe has to do with this lesson. I'm one who feels as if I have had a share of "ego death" experiences. As I have them and think about the last one, I realize they are not true, as I rebuild my ego right away afterwards, and it isn't all that different than the self I realized before. The faults and insecurities, the destructive fears are still here.
A young man that I recently met spoke to me this morning, and nothing he said was untrue. We have had a conflict of no importance, except perhaps I was asserting the concept of my self and respect for each other's possessions. The kid said everything right. The place that he is from, the world he grew up in is too horrible for words,.. and the hopelessness is dark and thick where he is from. Someone with no possessions, for whatever reason, no formal education, and the whole thing completely foreign to me and you. This kid has had no one and continues to have no-one but his self.
ATONEMENT
The thing I'm working toward, the parts that I believe are important are that we are not in any role. The son, the father and the chieftain and the prole are one. The daughter, mother and sister are one. We are all aspects of the others at different times and the way it comes together is not the way that was expected, but it comes together the only way that it possibly could.
The simplicity of life I've discovered does not remove possibilities, on the contrary, it adds them. If someone is living life intentionally, spiritually aware of the tasks at hand, the importance of those tasks, the meaning of action, inaction, intention and bliss. As long as one remembers that bliss is simple, one can always be successful. The extent to which I want to simplify my life is extreme for most people. I however, know what is right for me and what is important for me. I found a lot that I should be able to snag up for very little money and then I can establish an account to insure that the taxes are covered for the next few years. A large underground metal and wood workshop will be setup for next to nothing. With that shop, I will be able to produce 1) classy and profitable meaningful art-pieces that inhabit my-self and the meanings within. 2) demonstration machines that teach - Teaching the others that abundance, including energy abundance is all around us. 3) demonstration automated gardens. A garden that can be left to its own devices, collecting rainwater, utilizing gray-water systems, irrigation plans and solar powered pumping systems. 4) multimedia experiences - Art - Music - Tech - Light - Rhythm
I am exploring all of the scientific principles that were overlooked and some once implemented, now forgotten, the thermal dynamics of solar heating and geothermal cooling. The design of passive homes and how it is done, how it can be made to allow for the best and most advanced society - because we will be free. Free from the electricity bills, free from the high entertainment bills, free from the high telecommunication bills, free from the heating and cooling costs, free from the water bill, free from the gas bill. By working together a little more, by planning for the inevitable, by realizing that everything is an important resource, not just represented value of money. We will soon see that money does not and never did, actually exist.
But the master computer better be open-sourced and transparent or we will be in the biggest horror imaginable.
