Idols
of oppression
upheld by belief
are the words
both of derangement
and of exhilaration~
these words empty
may seem a resonating
breakup of
Idols~~
A confrontation a bold directness with the tyranny of words reveals the fragility of their power. When disarmed of meaning, words and thoughts are exposed as mere fabrications, devoid of inherent authority. Yet, certain words—“consciousness,” “awareness,” “I am,” “self,” “nothingness” “nothing” “no-me” “self or no self” even the word “this” —are imbued with a pseudo-sacred status, upheld by belief, hope, and faith.
These terms, if left unchallenged, become not tools of liberation but idols of oppression. They form the foundation of cult-like structures, where blind adherence to language erects empires of fanaticism and control.
Grand statements like “Nothing being Everything” ‘Aware of Awareness” “I am that” “It is all Consciousness or Awareness” are pointless pointers if not directly realized. Words, thoughts, and beliefs becomes another carrot that leads a rabbit hole of more words thoughts, and beliefs.
What if all blinders are removed, exposing these words for what they are: dangling carrots, sacred cows, and false idols? In this exposure, the ultimate liberation emerges—not through the worship of words, but through their absolute relinquishment.
