The actual sanctuary
Only when
the pilgrim (on the outer pilgrimage) reaches an actual sanctuary (i.e. only
when she attains quantum status) and touches it does it (i.e. she) become
real, hence actual. Only when she enters an actual (hence real) sanctuary
does she achieve real fulfilment, and which includes SANCTUM, albeit
momentarily. In order to
reach her actual sanctuary she must complete her virtual sanctuary, and which
is potential rather than actual. That means that she must end/stop/complete her
(inner) pilgrimage as a particular unit (i.e. whole) of identity. Attaining a
virtual sanctuary is merely preparation for attaining (or realizing) an
actual sanctuary. Only when
the pilgrim (on her inner pilgrimage) has (gradually) become her
sanctuary (i.e. when her dream (her virtual self) comes virtually true,
because all alternate sanctuaries have been eliminated) and collides (in
other words, reality tests) her sanctuary (i.e. her
virtually fulfilled self) with the sanctuary of some other ex-pilgrim
(presenting as a virtual sanctuary) does her sanctuary become real, hence
actual, albeit momentarily. Only when she enters her real sanctuary does she
achieve real fulfilment, i.e. SANCTUM, albeit momentarily. e.g. The
person who imagines herself to be a Moslem (Christian, footballer, cook or
millionaire, etc.) is a virtual, therefore not actually (i.e. really) a
Moslem (Christian, footballer, etc.). The person who acts as a Moslem
(Christian, footballer, etc.) is an actual (because made real through the
act) Moslem (Christian, footballer, etc.). Arrival at (indeed, self-touching, or having
transformed one’s self as) a sanctuary produces the experience of absolute
self-wholeness (hence of @100% fullness, hence of total fulfilment) of a
particular identity. Entry into the sanctuary, and which means leaving the
enclosure-that-limits behind, and which means relinquishing identity (i.e.
particular boundary or limitation), results in access to (actually becoming,
as returning to) unbounded wholeness, to wit, SANCTUM. |
