The end of a pilgrimage
It is important to understand that a pilgrimage ends
when it stops. Hence understanding and performing stopping (or arriving, hence
deciding) are crucial to becoming a successful pilgrim. Stopping (or halting, i.e.
deciding) is the most difficult part of phases
2 and 3 of a pilgrimage (as Hilbert,
Turing et al discovered). A
pilgrimage, that is to say, a transformation-as-path from an unpleasant initial
state to a pleasant end state, can end (and therefore die as an ongoing
series (or analogue) of steps) in 4 ways: 1.
The pilgrim arrives at an end (i.e. at a particular, albeit virtual
STOP), hence at an enstasy (i.e. at a
virtual (self-)steady state which, because different from her initial state,
is an ecstasy). To make her virtual
enstasy (as ecstasy) a real ecstasy, she must collide (i.e. block or stop,
i.e. touch) it with an alternate virtual enstasy (as ecstasy). This latter stopping
mode,1 and which achieves the full tran’scendental (actually e’scentental) ecstasy – and which happens in
a relativity (hence without self = difference) vacuum – is the goal of the true pilgrim, to wit, a
deliberate (or chance) stop @ (or by) a particular order of 1 (therefore @
the potential of an enstasy). Such stopping is actually very easy to achieve,
both intentionally and unintentionally, though religious mystics claim,
falsely, that its achievement requires ‘grace’. The initial pay-off (or
after-affect sequence) of this ecstasy happens at the power of 1 (hence as a
big bang). 2.
The pilgrim is stopped (or blocked) during transition from initial
state A to end state B, i.e. her pilgrimage is actually sliced, cut, ‘cided’,
hence ‘de-cided’ by a STOP. She is made ‘steady’ (hence a steady state, hence
per’facted, i.e. turned into a momentary fact) by being suddenly stopped,
blocked or arrested, in the act of slicing (or deciding) achieving an actual
(hence real, hence positive, because resulting in happiness) ecstasy. This
stopping mode, happening from outside or inside, occurs from moment to
moment, for instance, each time a datum is inputted (i.e. fused) or a stored
datum is rearranged or a datum fissioned off, thereby producing a new self as
whole output. That pay-off of the ecstasy (as new state) resulting from
slicing, cutting or blocking, namely enlightenment (personally transformed as
the various intensities of happiness), is proportionate to the degree and
speed of the slice or cut. ------------------------ 3.
The pilgrim returns to her initial state A (i.e. to START or GO),
hence to an astasy (i.e. to an unsteady
state), thereby achieving a negative (because sorrowful) ecstasy, the
negative pay-off being proportionate to the degree of astasy experienced. 4.
The pilgrim disintegrates (i.e. she reverts to a state prior to initial
state A), hence to no state (i.e. disintegration eliminates astasy,
(relative) enstasy and ecstasy, to end as a @maximum entropy (i.e. no order) enstasy).
This pilgrimage stops or ends at/as natural death, i.e. when the pilgrim’s
self has disintegrated and the energy that sustained it has dissipated (as in
pari-nirvana). There’s no pay-off, no after-affect sequence positive or
negative, therefore hence no transmission of self (since it’s been
eliminated). This was the Buddha Gautama’s way. 1 … The collision of 2 enstasies creates a moment of absolute realness,
hence the ground of reality = the world. Consequently, a pilgrimage ends in
perfection (actually per’faction) if and when a bit of a real new ‘world’ is
created. Prior to collision, an enstasy merely functions as a personal bit of
realness, hence as a virtual (hence incomplete) reality. Consequently, a true pilgrimage ends an/as a change of
state in the real, everyday world. |
