t kind of ignorance?

When we question our embedded values, a clash of culture results. That is why we create illusions and images about our values rather than question them. Warriors however question everything and aren’t afraid of clashing with embedded values. They refuse to create illusions about them, having enough courage to see exactly what is going on.

Those not evolving will give way and escape from this self-inquiry every time because this self-inquiry, this clash of our long held beliefs, involves suffering; a pain s

We structure our children to believe as we do and become as we are. Look around at the world and imagine it ten times as dangerous as it is now. This is where our children are heading. Why not allow children to develop as their hearts lead them rather than pump their innocent minds full of our ideas. The world we have made is a world where nobody can be trusted and everybody is out for themselves. You see it happening every day — in business, government, health care; it’s as if everybody is a used car salesman and we are his marks.

Every interaction is becoming a con of some kind. Who can you really trust? This is what our world is coming to. Why structure our children the same way? It’s not anybody but ourselves that’s causing problems; our own fear, ambition, and aggressiveness is boomeranging on us. But that’s difficult to swallow and admit — that would take a warrior.

Why force a tree to grow according to our dictates rather than protect and water it, and allow it to grow naturally? We fear that our children will not be successful, but how do we define success? Slaves to an economic world . . . or happiness and fulfillment? Where has an ambitious, competitive world taken us, except to the brink of nuclear war?

All of our technology will be destroyed instantly, along with us, when our ignorance and anger triggers the bombs. Then, looking back, the evolution that was just beginning was not such a bad idea, where our anger and our egoism were beginning to be understood, and the dangers of egoistic ambition were being uncovered in every aspect of our lives, especially our misunderstanding of God, country and religion.

Those that are evolving are a threat to the status quo. Those that are evolving therefore must be fearless. Those who fear change, those who refuse to wake up, will view this evolution as blasphemy, and consider those who are evolving dangerous. Therefore, only true warriors can tread this road, and once a warrior’s eyes begin to open, there can be no going back. When the warrior discovers how he or she has been manipulated, and how they have manipulated themselves, how could they possibly return to that kind of ignorance?

Those not evolving will give way and escape from this self-inquiry every time because this self-inquiry, this clash of our long held beliefs, involves suffering; a pain similar to an addict withdrawing from his or her addiction. But this kind of suffering eventually frees, unlike addictions that perpetuates illusions and unhappiness forever.

Only a warrior can withstand this intelligent suffering, and only a warrior can become totally free. Those not evolving attempt to escape their suffering through diversion rather than looking directly at their angst, but this kind of escape is temporary. Being born into a human, organic body insures suffering, and those who do not believe this either haven’t looked carefully at life or haven’t lived long enough.

Just look at our extended families, and then look at the world. Fifty percent of the children in the world go to bed hungry every night, and 18,000 die from starvation. It’s not because of a lack of food; it is a lack of enlightened leadership. Only a warrior can question his God, his country, and his family. Only a warrior can become awakened.

Warriors never begin movements or new religions based upon what he or she discovers, because a warrior understands the dependency and fog of religion. Non-warriors who refuse to think for themselves are the religion builders, as they attempt to find security in ideals. When a warrior sees how this has happened to herself, there is no further justification for religion. Security now resides not in a religion, but in the warrior’s heart.

The warrior doesn’t worry about perpetual life after death, or the continuance of ego, that’s not for warriors. Warriors don’t attempt to organize the truth, they see truth for themselves and they do not hold it. They allow truth to arise each moment. They know that truth cannot be captured; it’s much too fast for that. Religions that attempt to capture someone else’s truth are mere organizations that imprison fearful people, insecure people who must rely on outside authorities to tell them what to think.

Look at the different belief systems of the world. If we can remove ourselves for a moment from the narrow, restricted world of our own religion where dogma is continually reinforced and distilled by clan-like mentalities, we will see for ourselves that religio
