VINEETO: I am full of appreciation and admiration for these wondrous amazing reports from the convivium. They certainly impart the flavour of what it was like, what you experienced, what clicked and will have ramification for your further move towards actuality. I read them several times over, each time with delight.

The sincerity and naiveté in those reports is wonderful to read. It can also give a lot of pointers to everyone vitally interested in a freedom from the human condition.

I took a break from writing, partly so that everything that is changing in you as a result of your experiences and new insights can unfold its full flavour, understanding and active appreciation. Your expressed determination not to retreat back into the cave of ruminations and control is the best way to continue the intimate holiday atmosphere you had such a delicious taste of.

Just for fun, you may be able to relate to Richard’s anecdote in a more personal and practical way –

RICHARD: As to how simple, easy and thus effortless this way of living/ this course of action is, when sincerely put into practice, it may be handy to also anecdotally reference how the identity inhabiting this flesh-and-blood body all those years ago took the first step, on what has become known as the wide and wondrous path to an actual freedom from the human condition, as the new year dawned in 1981 and as the grandmother of ‘his’ four children was driving them all down the driveway of ‘his’ ex-farmhouse after having heroically elected to have all of her grandchildren stay with her in the city for a three week holiday (which had left ‘him’ and ‘his’ wife on their own together for the first time since the birth of the first child around fourteen years previously) so as to give her daughter and son-in-law a break from parentage and, hopefully in her mind, to be of assistance in the resurrection of their failing marriage.

It was an opportunity ‘he’ grasped with both hands to not only regain the honeymoon intimacy, of 1966, as ‘his’ wife was spontaneously proposing while they waved them goodbye as they drove away down the driveway – specifically, a twenty-hour mutual peak experience, which both of them remembered well, wherein naïveté featured prominently – but also by so doing to thereby enable the actual intimacy each had experienced, some months prior, during their respective perfection experiences which had indubitably evidenced to both of them that peace-on-earth was already always here (a much-discussed issue over those preceding months). What they both set about doing thereafter, consciously and with knowledge aforethought, was to deliberately imitate the actual each moment again – as magically manifested in their respective perfection experiences – simply because the imitative course of action had been demonstrably successful in the area of the fine arts (as per my oft-mentioned ‘enabling the painting to paint itself’ theme).

When their children were duly returned by an exhausted grandmother, after their three-week exposure to the big-city lifestyle had run its course, *‘he’ was particularly determined not to lose what ‘he’ dubbed the ‘honeymoon atmosphere’ by reverting to type* – although ‘his’ wife fared badly in this respect (as per Message № 12901 (Richard, List D, No. 33, 13 January 2013) for instance – and four weeks later as the official school year was due to commence ‘he’ was similarly set on not losing, as the minimal or bottom line of moment-to-moment experiencing, what ‘he’ dubbed the ‘holiday atmosphere’ (engendered via interacting with ‘his’ children as if a child again, albeit with adult sensibilities, due to an irrepressible re-emergence of ‘his’ hidden-away-during-puberty childhood naïveté). [Emphasis added]. (Richard, Selected Correspondence, Methodorigin, #1981).

With all my appreciation.

Cheers Vineeto
