Introducing Actual Freedom

The elimination of one’s social identity requires the replacement of society’s moral and ethical arbitrary judgments of good and bad and right and wrong with an open-eyed evaluation and intelligent assessment based on what is sensible and what is silly. This step can only be undertaken with the pure intent gleaned from the pure consciousness experience – an experience of the purity, perfection and innate benign disposition evident in a ‘self’-less state. This gives one the confidence and surety to venture beyond the limits of what is normally considered to be safe, sensible and sane.

The other essential work that is needed to dis-empower one’s social identity is that the beliefs and psittacisms one has been instilled with in childhood, or has later co-opted as one’s own, need to be replaced with observable and verifiable facts.

A discerning eye and ear is needed in order to ascertain what is fact and what is merely belief, theory, concept, assumption, speculation, conviction, imagination, myth, wisdom, or truth. It is easy to see when one knows how to look. Any belief is nonsensical. By its very nature a belief is not factually true ... otherwise it would not need to be believed to be true.

A fact is obvious; it is out in the open, freely available for all to see. To believe something to be true is to accept on trust that it is so. A fact does not have to be accepted on trust – a fact is candidly so. A fact is patently true, manifestly clear. A fact is what is ascertained sensately and thus demonstrably true. If you are to become free of believing you need to rely on fact – the verifiable, objective actuality – as a touchstone to test the sensibility of whatever ‘truth’ one suspects to be a belief.

This awareness, and the subsequent investigations, operates in actively demolishing the social identity – the morals, ethics, values, beliefs and psittacisms instilled by one’s peers in order to keep the instinctual passions ‘under control’. One is literally reprogramming one’s own brain to allow what is sensible, factual, and materially evidenced to become increasingly obvious and apparent – as opposed to what is illusionary and merely affectively or cerebrally ‘experienced’.

This then allows one’s awareness to become increasingly free and bare, allowing one to clearly see the over-arching role that feelings and emotions have in causing one to be malicious and sorrowful, and one finds that one can radically reduce their influence in one’s life with pure intent.

When one digs deep into one’s instinctual ‘self’ one encounters the raw unfettered instinctual passions, mainly those of fear, aggression, nurture and desire and when one does this one needs to ‘ride out the storm’ of chemical-induced fears and fantasies that are invariably stirred up. Also in the experiential  investigation of the instinctual passions one inevitably encounters the instinctual archaic ‘memory’ imprinted in the primitive brain itself, a memory that stretches back to the very beginnings of the human species itself.

This instinctual memory serves to maintain both one’s bondage to the ancient past and to Humanity itself. Thus, an in-depth investigation of one’s instinctual ‘self’ can provoke ancient atavistic fears and dread that can be daunting, to say the least. This is why pure intent and a good dose of bloody-mindedness and stubborn persistence is essential at this stage.

Whilst this crude genetically-encoded survival programming was essential in the past, to ensure the survival of the species, to set about to deliberately eliminate this programming is to feel oneself to be, at a very primal level, a traitor to Humanity.
