Some might say that RWC succeeded at separating the ego by simulating a dance of good and evil where a glimpse of grace could be (hopefully) grasped - somewhat similar to a "pointing-out instruction". The student however had to make the foundational decision, a turning in the seat of consciousness, in order to separate from their dark side long enough and decisively enough to vanquish over it. Many of the his students were MIU students who seemed to be demonically possessed…or was it just an elaborate staging, with a context that forced the audience into the subjectivity of the director (RWC)? Perhaps forums like FFL could be another kind of stage where such contexts can be explained and understood?
