Washington on September 5, 1945, and immediately thereafter,

 in taking my first contracted breath, started to kick and holler

 about this entire matter. Fortunately for me, I've since learned to

 calm down and take everything in stride, almost: cool sparks of

 rebellion still lurk deep down in my psyche, and would fire up

 all of a sudden if the right-wrong situation were to leap forward

 and grab me. But, eventually, even these sparks will get nailed

 to the cross. You see, I'm committed to a certain way of life...a

 Way that has chosen me as much as I've chosen it.

 

I consider my person then--having taken to the spiritual path

 many suns ago--to be nonsocial, nonpolitical, nonreligious,

 nonmilitant...a child of nonattachment and holy indifference, not

 pretense. I don't believe for a second that humankind is the

 master of anything, except, maybe, our own self-undoing. In 

 any case, I wouldn't waste another three seconds trying to   

 make the world outside a better world, or myself a better

 person. One doesn't try when one already Is.  I mean, does a

virtuous person try to be virtuous? Or, for that matter, does

a sinner try to be sinful? That would be pretentious.

People, places and things just are what they are. And whether

one's behavior is virtuous or sinful, all the packaging, pretending,

along with the art of selling the product (spinning)

in the world isn't going change that, or the consequences

that follow from it.

 

Man (ego), on the other hand, never ceases spinning, pretending

 to be instead of Being. The self-importance (self-righteousness)

 and hypocrisy behind this mentality is enough to stagger whole

 continents! So I would much rather be Still, and turning In to the

 Center of our Being, remain at peace (though some call the same

 ignorance) with the world, allowing the Spirit (God) that Is In all of

 us to spiritually discern...and thus reveal ourself as a Whole, as

 we Are right Here, right Now! Therefore, as a man, I am cool, re-

 served, distant (the distance of death) or that which appears,

 yet with a fiery indwelling spirit ever-penetrating, but not con-

 suming, Ourself (Intulife) or That which Is.

 

In God, then, we are spirit, even the Holy Spirit, not flesh, not con-

 ceptualization, that which has beginning and ending, as all things

 do. Spirit  (God) just Is...and we just Are. But knowing Such would

 require us, as personalities, to change the way in which we see...

 from literal to Nonliteral, from material to Spiritual, from personal

 to Nonpersonal, from a partial to a Total Perception of Being. In

 Truth, to see as God Sees (Nonsensory Perception)...Intuseeing

 everything Within us and As Us, ourself as a Whole (Nonbeing).

 

Thus profoundly perverse I am, totally out of sympathy with

 fundamentalism: the material, mechanical and literal way (di-

 vided ego) or duality by which persons are bred, places are

 seen and things are done in this world...being not a tradition-

 ist, or ideolog of any kind, believing not in conventional wis-

 dom and observing not with a generalizing mind. In short, I'm

 like the salmon who swim upstream against the current, re-

 turning whence we came: that is, returning to the very Core of 

 our Being...to Who and what is often called God or Liberation.

 Such is living Jesus, the Way of the cross, 

 the open Way (Teaching) of living Truth; for if we are not

 living Life...we don't know Ourself,  that is, we, 

 as Such (Truth), are not happening.

 

So, what I offer here isn't any kind of dogma, or cultural pro-

 graming. Innate knowing wasn't given to me by the institution-

 al church, or by the state. The church, or political state, doesn't

 know it; it never has. Christ Jesus isn't some dude who lived

 only two thousand years ago, but God in man, the Life Force or

 Principal who Nondwells Within us and As Us (the Nonactual

 Us), Being in man the Living Spirit (Christ Jesus)! Such Is the

 Living Potential that Rests in all of us.

 

All the stories in the Bible are telling us the same Story:

 that God Is Alive in us, potentially, at the very Center (Depth)

 of our Being. Every story , then, is about the human psyche

 coming Alive and selflessly Realizing his (or her) inter- 

 relationship with the Presence of God right Here, right  Now!

 But, being materialists (egoists), we have literally interpreted 

 the information as history, and called this reality--as if the past is 

 now. But reality can never be captured by the past. In relation 

 to the present, the past is always allegory, and therefore we 

 need to see through all  the conceptionalizations,  images,  

 forms, to the God (Spirit) in whom we Are...the Eternal Us (Now).

 Such Is the Nonliteral Perspective, first Seeing (Being) with the

 mind as a Whole that everything is Within us and Is Us (One Adam).

 

The time has come for humankind to return, by Way of the

 cross, to the Source of all life, and consciously fuse with our

 innermost Being! I don't believe that I'm the Lone Ranger: as

 interior Vision (Intuperception) Is Alive in me, then the same

 must be true for others. So I feel a sacred duty to give witness

 to the Presence (comforter) in my soul, and in everything else,

 through my writing, conversation and in the manner of living  

 my life on earth. Others, in time, may discover the same wit-

 ness in themselves. But this world isn't about me the person;

 it's about us the spirit...ourself as a Whole (the Great Spirit).

 Therefore we need to selflessly Realize Who and what we Are!

 

In time, we will stand face to face with Holy Fire (Spirit)! And we

 will either step Into the Fire or we will continue to stand apart

 from God, identifying with matter. We will either first See from

 Within the Fire As the Fire, or  from outside the Fire as the

 other; that is to say, from Within God and As God (Nonliteral

 Perspective), or from outside God (Ourself) as the image (literal

 perspective).

    

    

 

 

               If you're not living it...you don't know it;

                it's not happening.
