Inner bureaucracy

Explicit articulation of a tacit understanding in the form of thought requires the construction of a bureaucracy inside one’s soul. Even if the bureaucracy functions smoothly and fades to the background, it still constitutes layers of agency which must be coordinated to execute a thought. Some problem require explicit articulation, but whatever doesn’t require it might benefit from being spared the red tape.

The philosophies we experience as liberating are the ones that disband inner bureaucracies. 

But what happens when all the offices have been dissolved? Who can we talk to when public language offices are no longer there to establish protocols for  trans-psychic communication? And even if you did open a wire, is there anything on the other side that needs to speak or hear? And where do we get our liberation fix when we’ve been deprived of the need for freedom?
