Boundaries

If you find yourself with (all) the answers then the chances are that you're snug in your knowledge, which is another way of saying that you're confined by the system you have either created or inherited but in both cases inhabit. And this system is undoubtedly closed, at least temporarily. The key to progress – to growth – is to ensure that your boundaries start to melt – bleed. This means that certainties evaporate, to be replaced by a seeming fog of not really knowing anything. Even capabilities fall away, so much so that each step and breath you make seem to be made for the first time – without the reassurance of past experience or habit. Of course living like this you do store knowledge, but in your energy rather than your mind – in your natural aspect rather than your unnatural one. Such knowledge can be voiced and applied in the same way that knowledge held in the mind can be, but it can only be accessed when your boundaries melt. Boundaries here refer not only to the limits of your experience or belief system, but also to the tensions and blockages you carry with you from whatever time. Unless these are tackled and in some way put to rest then there can be no clarity or selflessness, and no firm foundation either. It requires remembering everything to such a degree that your past comes alive – as though it happened yesterday. It is then able to thrust you fully aware into a significant future, rather than half asleep into an arbitrary one.
