We do not have to begin with clarity, because clarity is inherent in every situation. We simply have to begin with that which presents itself. This will include our mistakes and the mistakes of others. It will include errors, omissions, miscalculations, appropriations, misappropriations, faux pas, indiscretions, and oversights . . .
Clarity is a groundless experience, but one that we can only realise when ground and groundlessness are realised a non-dual. When we accept confusion as the rich ground from which clarity can be discovered, we can cease being our own enemies.
