WRITING TEACHES

Writing teaches. It is like a silent, dynamic magic that reveals your true self to yourself.

It lifts the veils from the human cultural accretions that encrusted you from birth.

The real you, (that is in fact a ‘what’ not a ‘who’), lies dormant, “entombed in man’s mortality and man’s defaulting mind” as I wrote in the poem, ‘Marooned’. 

One of the reasons I started writing the blog was wanting to live a daily life steeped in the spirituality of my mystical experiences of Reality (MER).

I hoped this would also be a counter to having to live with the overwhelming distractions of being partly human.

I wanted people to know enough about me to avoid having expectations of me.

So my experiences nudged me persistently into writing the blog and two subsequent books of my posts.

However, real spiritual writing has to be secret, divinely authentic, sacred.

You have to be absolutely free of any extraneous oversight so you can exercise the absolute integrity of your spiritual calling. It has to be from just you and Reality as one.

You can be called as one of five spiritually awakening or awakened types:

an atheist;

an agnostic;

one plagued by stirrings you try to ignore;

a seeker dominated by an insistent,  passionate calling to know what everything’s all about;

a mystic who has been shown what existence is about.

Consequentially your writing has to be the most completely honest revelation you will ever be called upon to get right. Reality demands nothing less. Reality does not negotiate.

Human taboos or mind-constructed fashions of the day cease to matter, they become overwhelmed by what does. They are existentially irrelevant to Reality’s evolutionary purpose.

Don’t let yourself write stylishly. Don’t be second hand. Don’t risk losing spiritual contact.

Remind yourself constantly this process only works if it is for the development of your consciousness, your unique, unequaled consciousness, not communal ideologies.

For your writing to work, this reminder must be your constant correctional focus.

Eventually the revelations from the heights and depths of Reality will begin to show. Eventually your real self will emerge. Your true consciousness and its purpose will assert itself. 

You will see clearly what you never knew existed.

This writing is a deepening state of primary enlightenment.

It is in fact the beginning of a  contemplation that develops into  Reality’s joyously unique meditational purpose when emptied of your social facade  …

So here are a few notes on how to focus when writing in the spiritual dimension.

The rest, as it is said, will inevitably follow “as the day the night” :

1. State your deepest purpose for why you want to write spiritually in your first sentence. (As I did for this piece when I wrote, “Writing is like a silent, dynamic magic that reveals your true self to yourself.” See first sentence above).
2. Use no more than 16 words per sentence.
3. Use only one sentiment per sentence. Don’t overload. Simplify until you have only the core of your true meaning.
4. Don’t join sentences with conjunctions.  (Like, ‘and’, ‘but’, ‘yet’, ‘so’, ‘which’, or ‘therefore’).
5. Only use three sentences per paragraph.
6. Don’t write more than 750 words – equivalent to three typed, double-spaced, standard-sized sheets of paper (A4 sheets in the UK).
7. End with a strong reference to the first sentence you used to start your piece of writing, eg., :
8. “Writing teaches. Your life will never be the same once you master this ‘spell’.”
