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 can end (and therefore die as a process) in 4 ways, either gradually (i.e. as a gradual death) or suddenly (i.e. as a sudden death):

 

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 stopping mode, 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 pay-off (or after affect sequence) of this ecstasy happens at the power of 1.

2.      The pilgrim is stopped (or blocked) during pilgrimage, i.e. her pilgrimage is actually sliced, cut, ‘cided’, hence ‘de-cided’ by a STOP. She is made ‘steady’ (hence a steady state) 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, i.e. each time a datum is inputted or stored datum is rearranged, thereby producing a new self as output. That pay-off of the ecstasy resulting from slicing, cutting or blocking is proportionate to the degree and speed of the slice or cut.

3.      The pilgrim returns to her initial GO (i.e. to START), 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 GO), hence to no state (i.e. disintegration eliminates astasy, (relative) enstasy and ecstasy, to end as a @maximum entropy enstasy). This is pilgrimage stopping or ending at/as natural death, i.e. when the pilgrim self disintegrates and the energy that sustains it dissipates. There’s no pay-off, no after-affect sequence positive or negative, therefore hence no transmission of self.
