cutting the druids not has never helped release it's energies, the only way it has been conquered is by finding balance within the khaos, for even in absolute Khaos there is absolute balance, or rather the potential, see in pure Khaos even Khaos doesn't know what it's gonna do next, it is truly formless, just the potential for anything to happen, without order to manifest it that khaos just returns once again to free energy, ever wonder why there is so much free energy in the universe, it is from all the potential moments within Khaos to which no balance or order was brought and thus it dissapeted away again. Existence itself would be nothing more than a possibility a potential possibility at that if there was no order within the Khaos, not even true Death could exist in pure Khaos for within pure Khaos there is nothing real, nothing fixed, death would be nothing more than just another potential poof which could be or couldn't be, thus we need to find some balance, for in balance there is respect, that respect emanates both outwards and inwards and gives more clarity to your own mind while doing the same in others, you Nex my friend understand better than most about how important a degree of balance and order is even if you deny it to yourself.
So once again, the not has been tied, will be tied, forever will be tied, it can be cut, but for every cut that is made in it it just grows more, gains more thread, more power, it is something which could never be cut with a single locked perception, it can just be untied, unwoven through dissolving away that which holds it together, if god was the knot and we untied and removed all the BS (knots) from it, what would we find looking back at us? If we were to merely cut it what we find looking back at us would make about as much sense as my random ramblings would to the average Joe walking the streets, or here is another example-the answer to life is 47...but what is the question? The answer makes no sense without fully understanding the question behind it..
Nex... i came from a very similar place you are in right now... so i get you completely and your reply makes a lot of sence...i needed chaos constantly from the things i did to the pages i read... balance and order were boring to me.
but once you get to the point of understanding that the universe as a whole is the bigger picture and your daily lives canot exclude this big picture... then... you see that even tho there is so much chaos in the universe consider the age of the universe and the limitlessness of its size and you find that these massive events are merely nothing more than tiny ripples in an endless lake of life.
what is life but illusion, just a perception in the mind, who is to say anything is actually real, carefull not to lose yourself too deep while destroying your own paradigms, i've been there, dissolve away all till truth remains, truth is no illusion, yet balance or order forms part of that truth as much as khaos, we can forever continue this argument, all in effect we are doing is tying more of a knot around some of the younger users, is it worth while to lose them in our insanity..hehe, well maybe just for a while ;)
hehehehe... nex... quick one... what if balance has ego death... and even worse what if khaos and balance have ego death together while completely inside each others minds? hehehe...
I understand the piece. I don't understand all of the stuff that came after it.
It is not to vast of a concept for me to understand that khaos is order. That said, how is this a one-sided piece?
No such thing as infinity? That is not a belief I have heard in any way of thinking.
There are those who have remained from the beginning, and no doubt will endure past the end.
If you can wrap your head around that you're almost to the point of this piece. "a mind that is in its natural state of order is in harmony with the universe, and such a mind is timeless."
When a mind is able to shut out the confinements laid down by the perception of man it can be one with natural order. By simplifying we have complicated. Things must be black or white, or laid out in numbers, or it doesn't register.
Some of us see past time, past logic, tangled words weaved to bind us to an "is or isn't" society, and past the right here and right now. Balance and Khaos. Perception. All is the same. All is different.
This allows us to be one with order. And so as long as universal will remains, so shall we remain. For we are the same.
"in the movements of the planets, in nature,
and in the functioning of the human mind.
a mind that is in its natural state of order
is in harmony with the universe,
and such a mind is timeless."
I especially loved this part. As Perdurabo and Kao said, there is order and balance within Khaos. Some people think that Khaos is an evil thing, but you must know and feel Khaos before you can truly feel the balance and order of things. I feel that pure Khaos is a beautiful thing, its a pure force thats is beyond the human perception of good and evil. Never is Khaos a one-sided thing, for the universe and nature have the blessing of Khaos and order. Peace cannot truly exist in the time and age. The way things are going now with stress, things getting to complicated and stuff like that will only make human lives more complicated. Not alot of people can look past the human perception of this world, then you can truely be attuned to the universe and its natural power. In other words, you rock Balance lol.
