Stepping outside of all forms of control. To be fully, wholly, and truly out of control. Outside of the control. Of any control. Of all control. Could you image such a thing? Could you let go of all forms of belief. All religious sects. All forms of academic titles. Who has such courage and fortitude to end this absurdity?

Each time we call ourselves “spiritual” the “scientist” the “christian” the buddhist” the “raw foodist” etc.. We lock ourselves into a box. And we immediately imprison ourselves. Limit ourselves. Bind ourselves to something manufactured, controlled, and maintained by the so-called society.

So we have the christians fighting the scientists. The buddhists fighting the hindus. The blacks against the whites. The poor against the rich. The vegans against the meat-eaters. The smart against the dumb. All the while, the individual is destroyed, belittled, and marginalized. Controlled by outside forces that mold and shape you to fit their agendas. Their motives. THEIR ways of living. THEIR definitions of what’s right and wrong.

Do you really see this happening? To take any position in any system automatically renders you the slave. The follower. The machine. And you can never be free when following another person, sect, religion, system, what have you.

To be Alone is to be free. Alone from all outside systems. This is what freedom is. The letting go of all systems and methods… And there you are… calm…peaceful…and content with everything. Even with the misery and sadness. For you remain alone. Centered. And fortified.
