"I AM PROFOUNDLY REDUNDANT." START

There is a profound redundancy to much of my writing, because there is a profound redundancy to much of my experience. De ja vu all over again.

Why partake in, why indulge this redundancy? It has to do with this fact: "The greatest distance," our rabbis teach, "is from the head to the heart." We have been so deformed, so perverted by the culture we have been crippled by that we must revisit, revisit... and experience "for the first time" Truth, over, and over.... To reshape our bodies requires enormous repetition of the same exercise, each time attacking as though every repetition was Truly our first time! And for the greatest athletes, they probably experience the 1 millionth repetition Truly as "their first time!"

And the Truth is so entirely "foreign" to us as a result of our enculturation that it takes many, many, many, many encounters before we can really see the Truth "face to face," and even then....

So it is with me.
