Where does letting go come from?

2 posts in this topic

Just posting some self-inquiry tidbit I got stuck on tonight :)

 

Since letting go is a continuous practice, how was it allowed to begin? How did the mind ever figure out what letting go was not?

 

How was I ever allowed to start letting go? Seriously, you can respond like I'm stupid and say that I allowed myself to let go in the beginning, but I'd be letting go of the end of holding on before I ever knew what holding on was even then. In that case, I was born letting go, like a tabula rasa. But even then it's impossible to know how a blank slate can figure out for itself what is eventually written on its own body...

 

How would a blank slate realize it's being written on at all?
