People come here with the notion of solving something. They come with questions and they seek answers. But conflict arising from the nature of consciousness is not served by questions and answers.

Words are limiting, and when we reduce our inner turmoils into them, we never will end up with inner satisfaction. No, you end up with a placating catch phrase. Too easily to we let poetry make us forget the truth which lacks lyricism.

So I've no interest in hearing why you are Even by asking a question, you narrow your search. Even by anticipating an answer, you corrupt your motivations.

This is an exploration. You will be challenged, you will be tested by mortal metrics - in strength, in will, in tactics, intuition, morality and its consequences.

Continued Success will not yield you tangible rewards, but it WILL offer you the tools to further your exploration, and ultimately, your understanding.

Be warned, spending too long in this realm of self-reflection will drive any conscious mind to madness. Do not toil, and seek things along your path that have familiarity - attachment is what keeps an otherwise unbound mind, sane.

None who take this journey make it to the end their first time - failure is expected. Do not be discouraged. As you learn and master your tools, and the what to expect, you will find the experience smoother every time.

That said, no matter how well you use your tools, you must come out eventually. This needn't be the end to your exploration, however. Truth's totality comes from many perspectives - For this purpose I offer many to choose from - when you are ready.
