Once Dependent, We Stay Dependent
Dependent: late Middle English from Old French, literally ‘hanging down from’.
Dependency creates a world of servitude, be it social or religious, where we hang down as trophies. This dependency started thousands of years ago with the introduction of the idea of a heavenly being that is said to have created us. That gave rise to a duality and never a unity, and people created traditions and argued.
Alongside this concept was the view of non-duality – that we are already what we seek – which is pure consciousness, a unity of all appearances without dependency.
One of these views promoted freedom, while the other didn’t.
“Thou shalt have no other gods before me.”
Thou shalt have no other gods before pure consciousness.
Creating believers creates disbelievers, creating division.
A divided society can be controlled.
Pure consciousness cannot be disproved, and so cannot divide.
If you were to control the world, how would you go about it?
If you were to free the world, how would you go about it?
Why is this important?
