Born to chains?

“…we are powerless and vulnerable and totally alone in an indifferent Universe.”

I read the quote as a masking belief by which to deny Everything so as to give life to a nothing that is used to justify and necessitate a private creation.  A myth for a locked down sense of dissociation running along the line of its own narrative dictate.

We can make our own meanings, and be-live them as our experience, including 'a meaningless universe'. That is how free we are!

But we are NOT free to make them true, not change the true source of all Meaning.

Only to set a masking distortion in our own mind of judgement and perception-response.

If we care about more our judgements, than true appreciations, we will suffer (accept) the self and world that arises from them as our life and death. 

What we give sets the measure of our receiving, or Garbage in; garbage out - hence our dissociative indifference to living relationship isolates a sense of disconnection from the power and protection of our true being - which is not a body, but a total relationship or expression OF wholeness, and not a fragmented trauma survivor seeking to regain wholeness externally, or keep even the little that they hath.

Idle thinking can posit anything, but we discover we do care, or that certain things or conditions do matter to us, for we are actively engaged in protecting our identification in them. Running off with a phished or mis-taken identity is self-illusion or identity theft. That which identifies all things truly, restores awareness of wholeness or unconflicted being.

The experience of powerlessness is the result of assigning unto a self-apart, what is due to the whole. We call this our mind or will and freedom, and yet freedom to limit, conflict and deny IS the freedom to receive in the measure of our giving, as a denied will, as mind-trapped in its own thinking, or self-illusion set against feared truth.

"Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains" ~ Rousseau.

The word ‘born’ relates to that which dies - the body.

Assigning our Creation and Existence to the body is limiting Man to the tip of the mind that corresponds to a surface awareness, set over all that lies beneath.

Freedom is in our created being, but our mortal sense is ALREADY a limiting denial or lockdown in a distanced and masking covert identity.

And so we experience the limitation or chains of our conditions and conditioning as a structure through which we each unfold our own themes of experience.

But note the underlying core beliefs work to limit and filter what CAN be seen or accepted, and so at this time, many cannot begin to hear me because their identification with the body or materially defined sense, is set as the filter through which all else must subordinate to or support - or meet denial.

'New Wine' is the Gift of a true recognition, and the structures of thinking that it undoes or redeems, are hardly the framework into which to pour it. But if we seek for a self in the 'world' we make a masking commodity or weapon of love as if to make identity for ourself instead of let love identify truly.

Freedom is our Spirit. Its chains are our mind, by which a body/world is made a prison in which the Child of God comes to die. But where you choose to give your attention is up to you.
