Epistle
Whenever or however, I make anything important I am anxious
Being anxious, I am either angry, guilty, fearful, or feeling insecure. This is to be a state of conflict, struggle, and resistance or stress.
Being anxious is to be struggling toward an ideal what ought to have been what ought to be now
The struggle toward an ideal or illusion is the disintegrating factor, that which tears one up into many
All that the not I’s do is to make things, events, what ifs, if only, had of, etc. important
To see this to experience making things important is to be really free
Do not erase this from awareness for eternity plus one day

From Phoenix June 1971 excerpt on talk about opposites
Opposites
There are two types of adjectives that we generally use…only we only use one of the much- The judging adjective.
Are all ideas of opposites illusions?
You can describe things.. until you feel them
The mind that we have is a mind that thinks in opposites, the lower mind is the one you react with
This is why the initiation goes on it is to point out to us that there is no danger, whatever, we are fighting with opposites.
Now the first thing we do in being born after we get out of that lovely little spot where nothing is to start feeling in opposites.
So long as we think, in opposites, there is no chance of living.
Now, if you live by your nature, which is the picture of man without all the little decisions in there as motivators, there is a sensing and an interpreting.
As long as you think in opposites, you are in a state of conflict and the struggle towards the ideal, which is the disintegrating factor
But we are dead the moment that we make up an ideal and set it up, we have died to living.
