  You are absolutely right. We mistake our compulsions (when we respond from boxes) as our freedom. and this is the cause of all problems. When we dissolve our boxes there is intelligence, balance, respect, design and inclusiveness.

  Dissolve teh box does not mean we forget the past. It just means we should not get hooked to the past. Now we are aware of the past but they do not become dominant to take us over. We have the freedom and the designing intelligence to design our future. It happens when we practice silence-acceptance of the present. and then act. This takes us to the fertile fied of consciousness from where we can act. When we are angry or when we resist the present we only react from limited boxes and not from this field of consciousness.

  Just to take "Dissolve the box" idea further lets understand what happens when we dissolve the box :
  
  We are absolutely aware of our past learning but at the same time we have the designing intelligence and the freedom to design our future. The past learning does not become dominant to take us over. They are not crystallized but we just aware of them. And all this happens when we practice silence-acceptance of the present. This dissolves all our boxes and takes us to the fertile firld of consciousness from where we can design the future. But if we resist the present and don't accept it we react from a troubled platform. Just recollect when you are angry or resisting something the field from which you respond gets very restricted and unintelligent. So let's dissolve the box for a better life and a better world.

  Mar 30 2012: Hi Peter!
  
  In fact picking up the box is something that is unnatural and this gives us pain. We get hooked to our boxes ( likes, dislikes, habits) and we build a character out of it. And when the present does not match with it, there is inner turmoil., stress and our coping mechanism is challenged. Practice "silence-acceptance of the present." Now you will accept the present as it is without comparing it with your boxes. This allows you to design the future as you are not hooked. Some people have already been practicing it. Organizations like companies, sports clubs are alo dissolving the boxes to design their solutions. Now we do not control but design. In case you find it difficult i would love to help you out. :) Regards.
