There is only ONE kind of common sense, while there are 1,000s of variations of ignorance.
The individual himself is a fallacy.
Everything which happens in us is in itself something else which we do not know.
The individual is merely a sum of conscious feelings and judgments and misconceptions, a belief, a piece of the true life system or many pieces thought together and spun together, a ‘unity’, that doesn’t hold together.
We are buds on a single tree—what do we know about what can become of us from the interests of the tree.
But we have a consciousness as though we would and should be everything, a phantasy of ‘I’ and all ‘not I.’
Stop feeling oneself as this phantastic ego.
Learn gradually to discard the supposed individual.
Discover the fallacies of the ego. Recognize egoism as fallacy.
The opposite is not to be understood as altruism.
This would be love of other supposed individuals. No! Get beyond ‘myself’ and ‘yourself’! Experience cosmically!
Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood.
All is riddle, and the key to a riddle is another riddle.
