Ron, I did use the term 'static patterns of value.' Rather than social and intellectual patterns 'having me,' I prefer awareness/mindfulness and spontaneity whenever possible. I stated clearly, "That doesn't mean destroy them, it means to become unattached." I have no expectation of reward. There is nothing I need. It seems a good thing to do... Your jumping to the conclusions you do seems unreasonable to me.
