Illusory Finite
See not with the eyes
Hear not with the ears
The blind and the deaf
Are miraculously healed
Or shall we say freed
From the obligations
Of the illusory finite

Do words make sense?
Or does sense make words?
Here is an old set of predefined words for you to use in order to make sense. You may not change the definitions of these words to make sense. Therefore, your overall sense of reality must fit into the predefined sense of reality of these old words. Your sense must match and agree with the sense that created these words. If your sense challenges the meanings of these words, or the sense that created them, you must turn around and start again in a way that does not challenge the meanings… now, convey a sense that is truly yours… You can’t. But how would you even realize this if your thoughts are made up of these old words?
Up and Down is a concept that does not exist outside of a micro perception. The question of up or down is as relevant as the question of the length of the internet. Realizing this makes it simple to see the difference between linear and non-linear concepts. It is not sensible to count your money as more or less and think that is the point. It is sensible to perceive the flow of resources to have a sense of how it moves. It is sensible to know that blindly pushing toward our relative upward is the most reckless thing we can do. Climbing the ladder toward nothing… all we will experience is the climbing and falling itself when the carrot we sought was already in each of us. Then it is realized that we were not moving up, but only traveling outward from ourselves.
Smart is a word to encourage obedience. We are trained to be smart, because it is more important than having perspective in light of the objective to have cooperation in nourishing a dependency system. Most smart people will see adventurous people as not so smart. They will say that the risk of losing is why. They believe in winning the reward of a reassuring label more than they sense the meaning of every experience being communication on a divine level, especially the experiences that may be perceived as losing. It is noted that these people are often self aware of the fact that they admire the courage of the adventurous despite the reassuring smart label that they must hang onto.
Logic is a word that gives hierarchy to reason. Logic conforms to what is valued. Reason is the P.R. agent. You can make it conclude anything you want it to if you are creative enough. Just watch people who are really good at manipulating others. They have no problem concluding what they wish in the realm of logic by assessing the picture from calculated angles.
Words can be spells. That is why they are spelled out and that is why the powerful words are called “curse” words. Symbolism and subliminal conditioning is naturally inherent in everything. Once recognized, you enable choice through awareness. If denied, be swayed by what is not.
To convey a sense is very different than to convey a thought.
To live in thought is to perceive finitely
To live in sense is to perceive infinitely
True strength is not achieved by decreasing sensitivity.
That is a mechanism of weakness.
True strength is achieved by the will to sense life in its entirety.

I write words.
These words are interpreted with the meanings attached to them.
What are the meanings of these meanings?
Are they ideals or concepts that are relative to a specific understanding?
Can we only get so far with the words before we end up right where we started?
The more words we use the more complex it becomes.
The more complex it becomes the more blind we become.
Definitions are a narrowing of potentials.
Repetition is the formula for conditioning.
How can I use the words against themselves?
Would they ever betray each other and sacrifice their riddled intentions?
We just want to convey a sense.
The words are our tools and we trust them to be sophisticated.
No need to use any other means to convey the sense.
No need to try to interpret a sense not conveyed by the words.
Each time we use the words our sense becomes more and more relative to the words.
We feel that in order to make sense our sense must agree with the words.
The words do not work for our sense, our sense works to appease the words.
We spell the words out but the spell is on ourselves.
What happens when we perceive without the words?
… Clarity, beauty, simplicity, sense…
I write the words to destroy the words.
Logic can be used to come to any conclusion desired. Logic is technicality and it is necessary, but it is not the foundation of clarity and sense.
When you become aware of something, you gain a sense for it. You then must translate that sense into words if you mean to convey it through spoken or written language. It is the sense that is first born, and it is the sense that can never fit into words. Can words effectively lead one to a sense at all? The only way to gain a sense through another persons words is to take the words with you on your own path and test their application, yet be weary of how much trust you put into them. Even then, it will translate differently to each perspective. The words; life is beautiful, can not mean a thing to those who have yet to experience that from it. Yet it means completely different things to those who have. This leads me to believe that experience can be the only true teacher. We gain our senses through experience and rationalize with our words. Maybe the saying “come to your senses” can be applied when we become buried in words of contradictions where no sense can be made. There is no conclusion to be found, just an ever evolving sense.
