Freedom will come
What to do
Nothing
It is so hard
You have to do something
Think something
Anything
It is the human way
Conquer, control and act
Always acting, doing
Any problems, act and they will be solved
This would be true
If their were problems the mind couls solve
If we acted without thought
Then it would be pure and spontaneous
Here and Now
With no regard for past, future or consequences
Simply acting with no actor
No doer, simply the doing
Where the I has ceased to be
When the acting is done without thought
It is good
Acting with no actor
No I or mine
No mind
Wonderful
This is not the case now
Our acts are not spontaneous
Simply reactions to other acts
They all start with the mind and thought
With the thought 'I am'
I must do this
I must do that
There is no I
But the illusion has created this desparing world we live in
The mind creates the past and present
Future and chaos
None exist
But whilst we are dominated by our artificial mind
We will continue to suffer.
Action with no thought
Without conscious thought
Is Truth
Few of us do it
But all of us can
We must free our minds from thoughts
How?
Any attempts to fight the mind, control the mind, is destined to failure
Try it
I have and it does not work
It cannot work because you are acting with the mind
With the I
I must control my mind
Conscious thought of I acting on the mind
I is the mind
How can mind control mind
You only give it strength to laugh in our face
What can we do?
Don't fight it
Let it go
Watch it and surrender
No matter what thought appears
Leave it
Don't try to stop it, fight it, get rid of it
Judge or condemn it
Simply watch it floating by
Floating by
Give it no strenght
Watch it like the sky watches the clouds
Unmoved and unaffected
The thoughts will start losing strenght
Gloriously, spontaneously
The mind will give up the ghost
Shut down
The cloud of ignorance, the I will be seen for what it is
An illusion
Freedom will come
Keep watching.
