Initiative 2

Mind can create action, and is thus taking initiatives all the time. Some of these are good and some are bad. What is the difference?

It is a very complicated issue. For practical reasons, it is good to build and heal. But in an existential perspective the best is to dissociate oneself from material reality.

For a spontaneous mind, a lot of initiatives are taken. All of them are wrong. It is nothing personal. We are all like that. Already before we are born, as  fetus, we start reacting in the wrong way. The reactions we are experiencing result in counteractions, and all is registered in our mind which prepares us for repeating this destructive routine again and again, till we eventually die.

The good alternative would be to stop relating to our experiences and to social conventions, and start relating to existential principles. This means to avoid spontaneous reactions and replace them with awareness.

This is not easy, and few persons even think about it and try it.
