mind untethered [18/12/2007] The transformation of the world is the transformation of oneself, for oneself is part of the product and total human existence.
To that one can become, it is essential to know, without knowing what we are, there is no basis for right thinking can be no transformation whatsoever. One must know that it is, not as I would like to be, which is only an ideal and, therefore, is something fictitious, unreal what can only be transformed, not what you want to be. Known as we are required extraordinary vigilance of the mind, because what is experiencing changes, constant changes, and to follow quickly, the mind must not be tied to any dogma, any particular belief, no model of action. If you want to go after something, it is good to be tied.
To know ourselves, our mind must be in a state of awareness, surveillance state that is free of all beliefs, all idealization because beliefs and ideals we show a single color and distort the true perception. If we know we can not imagine anything we are not, or believe in it. If I am greedy, envious, violent, there is little point having only an ideal of non-violence, greed [...] no understanding of who we are, ugly or beautiful, evil or harmful, whatever, "to understand without distortion what we really are, is the principle of virtue. Virtue is essential because it gives us freedom.
