Free passion is radiation without a radiator, a fluid, pervasive warmth that flows effortlessly. It is not destructive because it is a balanced state of being. By opening, by dropping our self-conscious grasping, we see not only the surface of an object, but we see the whole way through. We appreciate not in terms of sensational qualities alone, but we see in terms of whole qualities, which are pure gold. We are not overwhelmed byt he exterior, but seeing the exterior simultaneously puts us through to the interior. So we reach the heart of the situation, and if this is a meeting of two people, the relationship is very inspiring because we do not see the other person purely in terms of physical attraction of habitual patterns. We see the inside as well as the outside.

  1. I read it through 3 times

    first time i hated it

    2nd time

    i got a glimmer

    3rd time i had an insight

    let's try once more

    Ok

    to me

    it isn't that well written

    even if it is a famous author

    however the gist of the quate

    is saying

    look

    there exists an other way of observing something

    you look at it physiucally

    but do not stop at the surface

    let your mind penetrate into the inteerior of theobjexct

    and look at it's inner qqualities

    and see not only it's surface

    but theinherit qualities buried within

    which are often

    more important

    so for instance

    in a car

    don't just look at the outside

    open the hood

    check  out the mmotor

    examine the oil

    look at the technology

    see if it is good technology

    if it will be a reliable car

    if it has  lots of miles on it

    wether it is about to break down

    look at the ingenuity involved in its design

    how it was constructed

    look at how a car is a symol of the society in which you exist

    try to find the use of the car

    are the seats comfortable

    How does it's structure reflect it's function

    how could it be implroved

    then

    look at a relationship

    of two people meeting

    look beneath

    the surface

    of the skin

    see what the person is reaaly like

    are they hones

    do they have integrity

    will they be faithful

    loyal

    a good person

    are they samrt

    wise or selfish

    then

    we experience a clarity of vision which enables us

    to better understand

    the whole individual
