Chaos or the void ?

There is no legitimate authority or power on the earth, just as there can be no valid or authentic order in the chaos of existence. We use power to establish order in our own individual actualities, just as authorities use power to establish order in the larger actualities of states and nations. None of this is legitimate. All use of power is based on fear, a fear of chaos, the natural order of existence, a fear grounded in relativity since we have no faith or trust in the absolute, of which our fear is elevated to the level of terror. But the absolute is the void of our own being in which, if we trust, we lose both our fear of chaos and our fear of those authorities who use power to substantiate their illegitimate order.
