Independent thought, independent from indoctrination and any belief

13 July 1988

Dear Phillip,

Thank you for your two letters, thoughts, greetings and questions. Immediately I am flooded with possibilities to illuminate the "area" in which you are standing as an artist. However, to do justice to the intense seriousness and commitment of yours, it will be more appropriate  to be specific (references to sources - as you are specific when mentioning Krishnamurti) and precise, short enough to be understood. Therefore I am pleading for a day or two to write and rewrite and find what is familiar to me, but better, more concisely said by others - to photocopy these in some instances, translate some thoughts written in another language.

You are a magnificent companion with your sharing your own personal inquiries into the meaning (goings-on) in life. Soon I will reply. 

Love, Wolf

P.S. Independent thought, independent from indoctrination and any belief = trust your senses, all of your senses. Your body (brain included) has survived the general pool for hundreds of millions of years. YET, each individual cell, from the beginning on, has to afford itself to the ultimate of it's best "know-how" to survive. 

We have come up from physical survival into a realm of psychological survival! You are doing well in keeping up your efforts to gain a clearer view of 1. what is hindering the psychological success? 2. what promotes psychological success? (psychological event is a specific physical event)
