Transformation represents the idea of substantive or Fundamental
Change. Yet the entire idea of a personality self is based on the
persisting or continuing organization of a familiar condition. So the
problem of a human being, unconsciously or consciously attempting to
preserve the conditional or limited ideas it thinks itself to be,
necessitates an active aversion, avoidance, and general objection to
Transformation or Substantive Change. This is why we require the
expression and experience of Mastery in some form in order to
facilitate or accommodate this deeper metamorphosis of our
transforming Inner Nature. The poetic expression of this Inner
Creative Elegance, should it find some appeal and acceptance, softens
our traditional unconscious tensions and resistance thereby helping
or permitting Nature to have it's inevitable way with us. This is why
the improvisational arts have so much to potentially contribute to us
providing the mind does not become overly concerned or obsessed with
the result. Its not the notes or the words, or even the style or
system they represent, that matters so much as the state of mind that
provides them or receives them. The notes, words, and ideas are all
temporary and only vehicles or means to a Greater End.

And so it is with our self concept and the systems or means we are
attracted to in order to accommodate the Release we imagine ourselves
to be in such need of. They all come together and converge in the
Unspeakable Occasion that occurs according to our Willingness and
Readiness which we develop in our daily practice… but only to
facilitate that most Wondrous and Surprising Shift that comes of It's
Own thereby ending the need for any further practice.

In Reality, Beginning has no end.. only Perfect Continuance,
superseding the need for change along with the entire idea of change
itself… which in Reality is literally impossible. In the Treasure and
Precious Reality of our Relatedness in God, Being Always and Forever
beyond change, we remain Safe and Secure in the Eternity of Here and
Now…
