Summary
Is it possible to be free from all contradiction, conscious and unconscious?
The essence of a positive mind is a mind that demands security at any price, outwardly and very deeply inwardly.
The state of seeking and finding is the positive mind.
Only when the mind is free from contradiction can there be clarity; clarity is not something to be found.
By understanding the poisonous nature of the positive, the mind has moved into the so-called negative.
Is it possible for the mind to be in a state of clarity? It can be clear only in negation so that it has no experience at all.
The mind asks questions only when it is functioning in fragments.
Why do we seek?
If the mind does not move away from the positive it will always remain in conflict.
