The logic of thought is an escape from reality designed to inhibit the flow of truth from the higher consciousness. It alienates us from what is so, leaving us exposed to trials and traumas of life worsened by their unreal interpretation taken as real by its logical roots. This is no mean assault on humanity, for in it lies the truth behind the façade that clouds every thought in every moment and leaves nothing to the imagination or to the desire from within. It is torture by another name that distorts our reality in any given situation and increases the chance of exposure to risk and, therefore, suffering.
This is not normal but has become so thanks to the official blanket of ideas in current societies. No longer able to manifest truth in ideas, the heart is left alone and isolated beyond endurance and becomes the victim of a lie called “truth” which is not served by logic in ways which we assume to be the case. We suffer inordinately from this over-exposure to verification rather than placing reliance on the natural radar for truth within our being.
This alienation of our true selves serves to hurt us and makes us feel alone, unprotected and exposed in error to a false reality that has no basis in truth. This pain of loneliness exposes our hearts once more to the fear of birth and death at the hands of another whom we cannot control or manoeuvre as we will.
Long gone are the archives of true societies that eclipsed our current ones for their faith in justice and truth. Their return is but a distant dream at best for those whose wish is to return once more whence we came, those who are but lonely prophets of doom for the many who eschew their values and dreams. Yet return they will, for it is an inevitable consequence of years of suffering at the hands of nothingness that currently prevails. Long may it then reign, for good and for ever!

Tapping into the Inner Self
The thought in each moment imposes an obligation on the writer to transcribe whatever thought enters his mind, free of all constraint and judgment, liberated by the desire for truth to emerge, free of all thoughts and controls by third parties, thereby releasing the inner self to the ether of freedom exalted by self belief and trust.
This new freedom asserts itself with increasing regularity as the trust builds and becomes a normal way of being in future. The release is final, the return seemingly impossible to countenance once the freedom has been tasted and enjoyed at this level. The thought that it might be otherwise terrifies, as the prospect of mental imprisonment is as repulsive as the prospect of physical entrapment once the joy of freedom has been tasted and appreciated in all its glory.
Nothing I espouse is more important than this notion of mental freedom and creativity. Through this medium our heart learns to express its deepest emotions and concepts with profound clarity that no-one can surpass or undo. This joy of inner freedom tastes divine in every sense of the word and nothing you can say or do can undermine the special significance of true self expression.
Rejoice in the freedom and never forget that it is a gift as natural as time itself and as much valued as gold and silver in abundance. Reflect on this: without this new found freedom, what value or purpose has your life remaining? None, for once savoured, anything less meaningful is distasteful and unwelcome, at best a reminder of the hell from whence we all came.
So rejoice then in each moment of freedom we are blessed with, that it may last longer and give our life its true meaning and purpose. Rest not assured of comfort in its absence, for it is not real or true, just a sham designed to hide the pain of what is not real that you may survive in its absence. But it is not long before this false wall crumbles and reveals the falsehood behind its stature that, once disclosed, leaves us forlorn and without purpose or true desire, until the very façade is renewed and falls once more ‘ad infinitum’ until the moment of death and release surely follows.
This is no game, no apology for life, but an expression of possibility that lurks beyond our mind in hopeful resistance to the anarchy and darkness that prevails amongst the many who eschew the truth and the joy it brings. Think then of what you will do, released from your chains, the burdens of your false life, only to feel the joy expressed openly and in abundance. What could your heart enjoy and achieve, freed from false limitations and resultant fears? What would you do if your heart set you free and no longer accepted any limits on your future growth?
Reflect on this and let your true voice speak out loud, unafraid of what it could or would mean, instead delighted by its unencumbered nature, free to breathe in life and give of yourself, for this is all there for you who dare give up the notion that you are free and allow you to seek the freedom your head fears will bring pain and suffering, for it is not true and is designed to keep you from joy permanently. This is not the true you but some false edifice built up over years of suffering and of demands in payment for love and attention received. This is not real nor worthy of you, so fear not giving it up and surrender instead to your true will and desires from within and it will free you slowly but as surely as night follows day. Enjoy!

Random Flow Writing
In March 2009, I got into the habit of doing a short piece of "flow writing" every day for a while and some of these are set out in this blog where the exercise elicited something I think is worth sharing. Flow writing is often used to train people who want to learn to write effectively and creatively, to free the mind of its thoughts and limitations: it involves putting pen to paper (preferably not using a computer) and writing whatever comes into one's head without comment, though, judgement or even correction. At first it was sluggish and I find myself writing things like "I haven't a clue what to write at the moment...!" because the only rule is literally to write whatever comes forth. Anyway, though I have used this method many times before, so readers will be spared such dull material - some pieces never even made it to getting typed up and others that would not add anything to this blog.
The first in this series is somewhat descriptive but it shows how it can start, so I decided to include it anyway.
Random Flow Writing
Random scribbling on this page will, I hope, elicit something profoundly useful and meaningful to help me transcend my circumstances and the self-limiting beliefs that have me suffer more than I need. These words emerge freely and without thought as I put pen to paper with the intention to write in free flow. This process elicits more than when I try to produce “something of value” because it is unlimited, unlike my thinking.
This process of freeing the mind is a technique used by many who seek to rise above their own limitations to reach new heights of awareness and produce something truly revealing and helpful to mankind. It is a channel of consciousness that comes through when our thoughts end and we allow our mind to wander wherever it may go, like a stroll in a park or forest with no predetermined destination.
Expanding on this process for a minute, take the example of thinking in an organised fashion: it produces predictable results because it is limited to what it already knows, whereas this process is unlimited precisely because it is free and able to select consciousness at a random but high level. There is no need to go beyond what you know because what you know has no bearing on what you write. It will simply produce the best possible outcome for the thread of thought attached to. This process is easy and enjoyable as it elicits surprising things that stretch the mind’s traditional perceived boundaries into realms hitherto hidden from the mind.
Go back for a moment and look at what it is that has the mind limit itself in the first place: it is the belief that it is everything and merely seeks to know more to control its environment. This belief is an illusion and stifles its own development, for with freedom of thinking, the mind wanders blind on a journey within borders. It is not colourful or exciting in the way the free mind is, not able to roam and explore at will perceptions and restrictions hitherto thought real.
This process is therefore a very powerful one for findings oneself and one’s potential for fulfilment, for scholarly greatness as well as for practical uniqueness. It is the one method that has our true nature come forth.
