Desire, suffering, and the Father God, the sire

***

            It is said that desire leads to suffering. This is true in that to de-sire is to de-father (i.e. to remove the parental cause from the effect). Thus creating a di-vision or ‘double vision’ where the sight of the individual is divided from the Eye of God.

            The Cause is the parental, sublime event. We are wholly effect, not defect, nor affect, when we are in tune with the cause. Hence affection, which is part of desire, is an affectation which falsifies the ‘givenness’ of manifestation by de-siring it (that is to say, by not recognizing it wholly as effect), and thus separating the Children from the Parent which should have been united through the hollow, holy ghost, or empty, de-sire-less watching and acceptance of the emerging manifest.
