Avoiding (or evading) getting lost

 

 

The pilgrim (i.e. the homeless) proceeds, indeed, must proceed @ random (i.e. her actual steps/contacts are always random, because 1 >< 1 collisions), so to speak ‘in the dark (night)’. More clearly state, the pilgrim proceeds ‘blind(ly)’. Obviously, the pilgrim who ‘travels’ blindly gets lost.

 

To avoid (or evade) getting lost, she invents (or accepts) a goal (i.e. an ‘as if’ sanctuary). By installing an ‘as if’ goal (real enough to her) the pilgrim creates a relationship, thereby relativisng her @random travel (i.e. self-change procedure). In short, the goal orients her absolutely random progress and makes it relatively random, thereby reducing the probability of getting lost..

 

Once the goal (read: sanctuary) has been established, ‘standing in/as it’ and looking back the pilgrim can generate a provisional map (indicating provisional and immediate goals/sanctuaries) and a set of travelling steps or stages (i.e. as reified procedures or functions).

 

To further reduce the probability of getting lost, the pilgrim powers up her ‘as if’ goal. As she does that, it begins (or appears) to shine with a golden glow (called enlightenment). It may also smell and taste sweet and emit beautiful sounds (i.e. often interpreted as angels’ song).

Note: since every goal that comes into (intense) focus, that is to say, every goal to which maximum concentration (read: condensation) is applied, produces the aforementioned sensory outputs, those powered (or hyped up) goals become highly seductive, as were Scylla and Charybdis (and not a few other damsels), so well described by Homer. The pilgrim must keep her eyes and ears open (i.e. process all random data) but tie herself to the mast of her vehicle (Sanskrit: yana), i.e. to her goal, lest she get distracted and eliminated.

 

By powering up her ‘as if’ goal, she highlights it in (i.e. grooves or burns it into) her Guide System, that is to say, into/as her Inner Pilgrimage function (now operating as her ‘called up ‘genie’ or ‘Guardian Angel’). The more she powers or fires up her ‘as if’ goal (i.e. the more she calls up her genie), thereby actually firing up (i.e. elating) herself, the greater its affect on both her internal and external pilgrimages. The fully dedicated (i.e. condensed to/as 1 goal) pilgrim powers up her goal (i.e. sanctuary) to such an intensity, and which she sustains continuously, that it simply overpowers all other goals seeking achievement via the inner pilgrimage. The outcome is goal, hence self-derelativization (plus goal/self absolutization, the ‘normal’ means of becoming a blind fanatic); in other words, by powering up one goal to squeeze out all others (and which is the primary objective of mantra meditation) the pilgrim becomes absolutely single-minded (and a true pain in the ass).

 

Giving her Inner Pilgrimage one goal only to achieve means that she has installed a fixed mindset (i.e. a permanent desktop (i.e. generl consciousness) (back-)‘ground’). The inner pilgrimage, and whose job (as ‘genie’) it is to attain (i.e. to make real) each and every goal (or problem or mindset) given to it (i.e. for which to produce a perfect solution), given only one goal, will do all it can to attain (i.e. realize) that goal. The affect of single-minded goal striving is that the pilgrim actually goes on automatic pilot (i.e. like a cruise missile). All she need do is feed in requested data to the Guide System and it will do produce a perfect (read: good, read: profitable) outcome.

 

Of such a pilgrim it is said: ‘Fully focussed (i.e. grooved or calibrated, i.e. with a fixed mindset, hence ‘on automatic pilot’), she achieves, no matter what she does.’  Of the pilgrim who does not have a fully focussed mindset (i.e. who self-guides from moment to moment, hence ‘on manual pilot’) it is said: ‘Unfocussed, she fails to achieve, no matter what she does.’

 

In short, the pilgrim avoids (or evades) getting lost by inventing (or accepting) one ‘as if’ goal and excluding all other goals, the chosen goal then shining brightly like a homing beacon. Once all other goals are excluded, the inner pilgrimage, to wit, her Control & Guide System (i.e. her genie) brings the goal to her, (almost) effortlessly.
