For one who has not known true friendship, should this arise in their experience, it will present a lethal threat to their habits, identity and ‘self-sufficiency’.

All they have known before is drawn into question. This situation is highly-charged, and may become explosive. This can result in the person feeling enmity toward the one who loves them.

If the one befriended admits this love, this companion, then »where were all the others »in the past?

Such a situation threatens their entire ontology and identity.

Thus it can be very dangerous to befriend such a one. And this may not become apparent until it is too late.

Largely, humans are creatures of habit. Anything that threatens their historical habits must be ‘dealt with’.

Usually, by dismissal. Or enmity. Or combat.

The spirit of Insight is similar. When introduced, the mind that receives it is faced with a choice that becomes more difficult each moment: to use it to evaluate and judge their own history and mind, backwards… a powerful ‘gravitic attractor’ emotionally and cognitively … or… to see, embody enact and value, the new opportunities that arise futurially, relationally.

Thus, insight is like a dangerous friend who loves you without condition, when none before have loved you… even conditionally.

This conundrum is both a lethal prison… and wings.

Which it becomes depends upon whether one looks backward in judgement, or forward… into the opportunity for liberation and new ways of being.
