The most profound attribute of ignorance is that it protects itself.
Because we are already complete, birth into the world is a reduction. We deny who we are when we come to energy but because we can never be other than complete, our insistence on being who we are not initiates a natural response to heal the resultant tension (just as a stretched elastic band, denial and tension go together). The best possibility for our return to non-tension is measured by our completeness and it takes the form of a poisoned antidote. This antidote is the sum of our denials applied against us. It is independent yet formless for it is all forms as one. It acts to maintain the states of tension because, although our antidote, it is nonetheless the cumulative force of our ignorance and knows only to protect what it perceives is its own life. When we have poisoned ourselves to our revulsion the antidote will do its work.
This destructive entity is our ignorance in action and it can’t be
reconciled until we learn who we are. We are its creator and must come to terms with this responsibility. In the meantime it uses its overwhelming advantage to control us away from the knowledge of eternal recurrence that will end its life, or so it believes.
This entity is our deceptive ‘devil’ and it is more real and more
powerful than anything we know. It is the root of control and its only weakness is that its power exists only in darkness. When we become aware it transforms to love. The elimination of ignorance is the quest of life and our responsibility to one and all.
Freedom threatens the essence of control.

Keeping your life focused on obtaining wisdom rather than killing with...stupidity!
