(DRAFT — JUST SOME WORDS FROM A POST, NOT THE PRACTICE ITSELF)
“One of the key things that Platonic Surrealism teaches, is how to rebuild your ego
to be constructed from nonverbal elements and the exercise of pure awareness.
The average person bases their egos on random flotsam and jetsam
from culture, and identifies with certain ideas from that source,
largely as way to process suffering.
So if someone ‘pushes at their word/conceptual based ego,
they feel under attack, and if their ‘accidental system’ is
overwhelmed somehow, they might collapse and have a
‘dark night of the soul’. As a metaphor.
But a person who does ‘10,000 foot tall practice’ becomes
largely immune to societal influences and suffering based
on a battering of their ‘floatsam and jetsam ego’, as they
don’t have nearly as much of one of those anymore, though
some remainder is inevitable.
Some of those ‘powerful spiritual or charismatic people’ you run across?
They know ‘the secret’.
It’s very easy.
