For a human being or any being brought up to believe one can’t
know unless one inquires seems like one
can only know through inquiry which for beings brought up to believe this seems
to be the truth of the matter full stop however that’s not quite correct or the
full story.
Collectively we are brought up in this way since the dawn of
man, how could man possibly advance if it wasn’t through inquiry? If we take a look at holly men/people, they
first had to inquire especially to find enlightenment. It would seem to them one can’t attain
anything without inquiry first up however once you become enlightened you learn
you had nothing to inquire about because it was always there & has always
been there no matter what. We must think
here, why can’t we personally or collectively attain knowing & wisdom
without inquiry? First of all we must ask, what human trait makes one inquire?
We could say because we are inquisitive or we want to better ourselves in some
way or in various ways however what actual trait is behind this inquisitiveness
or need/desire? A need or desire to know
denotes egoist tendencies no matter how you look at this, so is this saying
holly men/people desiring or even needing to become enlightened are expressing
egoist tendencies?
It’s virtually impossible to avoid expressing the ego in
some way for a being with taught perceptions that one must inquire to know or
advance in some way, this answers the question to why we can’t personally or
collectively attain knowing & wisdom without inquiry, it’s to do with
taught beliefs going right back in human history which are controlled by the
controlling ego. If we didn’t have an
ego we wouldn’t bother becoming enlightened or knowing or aware of anything so
does this mean we wouldn’t have advanced? At first glance it would seem so because we
are looking at this with a perception controlled by the ego but what if you
take away the influence of the controlling ego? You would then perceive through a perception not
controlled by the ego so your perception is going to be somewhat different than
it was with a perception controlled by the ego wouldn’t it? Of course it would
but this doesn’t seem to answer the question in how we would advance without
inquiry?
The only people who can answer this are people who are enlightened
because as I said once you are truly enlightened you realise you didn’t really
have to inquire to know or become enlightened. As soon as you truly stop the
ego being in control you realise basically straight away that you needn’t have
inquired about anything as it’s all there sitting right in front of you without
you thinking/ inquiring period. It’s the
controlling ego telling us we must inquire because to inquire one must have a
need or a desire to do so & both these traits denote ego tendencies.
I met a particular person years ago that flawed me & in
fact while approaching him I stopped & actually took a couple of steps back
because of the vibrations I was getting from him, I realised straight off this was
a being who had no controlling egoist tendencies however on the other hand he still
expressed human egoist trait. The difference
between people like this & others is they as humans seemingly have control
over the ego & use the ego to whatever way they want. It wasn’t the ego
using him but him using the ego. Once
you come across people like this you know straight away that these people are
special if you are aware enough, they put out a different vibration to the
average person.
So how can you express the ego & not be of the ego at
the same time? Being of the ego is being controlled by the ego even when we egotistically
don’t think we are however when you control the ego, so to speak, you allow the
ego to function as it does normally only to fit in with the rest of humanity
but you know you have full control. I
will explain why they use the ego to fit in. Like I said I spotted this bloke
straight off but I know I haven’t of others I’ve come across, they just don’t
want to be spotted so they use the ego instead of the ego using them. People used
to the ego controlling them put out quite a different vibration to a person who
controls the ego, a person in control of the ego will stick out in a world full
of people controlled by the ego so they hide themselves by expressing the ego
seemingly in the same manner as everybody else.
Now let’s look at control, is it not being of the ego when
controlling even of the ego? I used the
word control because that is what it seems like we are doing when we are in
control of the ego but it’s not because there is no real control just an
awareness that is beyond the understanding of people who are controlled by the
ego. Awareness alone gives us an understanding
that the controlling ego is unable to penetrate to take control over us thus it
looks like we are controlling the ego. I say controlling the ego because it’s easier
for a person who is being controlled by the ego to understand this.
Spiritual awareness is a very powerful tool to use if used
& understood correctly because all what one has to do to make things happen
is be aware enough to make any one thing happen, it is that simple however one
must always be aware of our desires for they will allow the controlling ego to take
control over us again sometimes without us knowing it. This means be careful in using your newly found
awareness in a desirable way for in this lies the controlling ego which a lot of people throughout the ages
have, unbeknownst to them, been tricked into expressing again.
