Until we do recognize, name and talk about such symptoms openly and honestly we are likely to respond to them without knowledge, insight, understanding and/or wisdom. In the absence of honest recognitions, naming, and talk; we are in the dark and are bound to behave like we are in the dark---not as children of light living with joy and lightness. As children of darkness we often take the symptoms of our darkness very seriously, and to treat them and each other very seriously; as we try to control the darkness (or its appearance) which is the result of our banishment of honest recognition, naming and talk of the symptoms of our disintegration and lack of integrity. In the self- imposed darkness of our collusive games of mutual self deception we cannot honestly see and learn from our own or each other's mistakes; and so we are trapped in the prisons of our endless repetitions of our dark mistakes. The rules of our collusive games of mutual self deception demand that we honor the taboos which make it impossible for us to recognize, name, and talk openly and honestly about our most meaningful experiences, intimacies, affections, loves, and sexual lives; for they threaten our collusive games of mutual self deception. The silences of our being alone together in our meaningless crowds are symptoms of our disintegration and our lack of integrity; but we cannot honestly recognize, name, or talk about such silences for what they are. Many of our "successes" are based upon assumptions regarding the scarcity of human resources, intimacy, affection, love and sexual integrity. The meaningless "successes" which do not satisfy us or give meaning to our lives, are symptoms of our disintegration and our lack of integrity; but we cannot honestly recognize, name, or talk about such meaningless "successes" for what they are. We often behave as if we are essentially separated and alienated creatures---in keeping with the objective paradigm of "successful" people who are addictively fixated upon tools of manipulation and control; but we cannot honestly recognize, name, or talk about such fixations on the part of some of our most respected religious, political, educational, scientific and technocratic leaders---who are themselves symptoms of our disintegration and lack of integrity. Often we have regarded defensive people who are fixated upon defensive manipulation as security people; in spite of the reality that true security is the freedom to be safely vulnerable in the absence of defensive measures. We cannot see the absurdity because of the darkness created by our collusive games of mutual self deception. Rather than curse the darkness and the consequences of the darkness, we will do well to turn on the lights of honesty and openness---and recognize, name and talk about the symptoms of our living in the darkness we have chosen.
