If she had demonstrated a consistent non-attachment to static patterns
(killed them all), she might have risen to that of a wise sage.

"while sustaining biological and social patterns, follow dynamic quality"
[Ron comments:]
Well, that was Lila's whole problem, attachment to the death of her child. She
avoided dealing
with it and she lapsed into a psychosis(what Joe Campbell would describe as
also a breaking from
cultural patterns.)
This is where I interpret Bob really making his point about letting go of the
stuff that drives you mad
what ever it may be, clearing out that "stuckness" that gumption trap that
keeps you from really
actively engaging in the now of experience.
To actively engage in the now of experience requires sustaining biological and
social patterns.
The arful mechanic works on the cycle of the self. What I was asking Dmb and
Ant about
was what tools they thought Bob contributed to the Philosophic garage.
Something within a general outline like:
I. To solve a problem one must first see it.
1. Once seen let go of all attacments to it.
II. Developing care (mindful of the now)
1. Re evaulate the meaning in terms of biological and social value.
2. Act
Rinse and repeat
..
I see Bob and pragmatism as really contributing in regard to II.1 and would
like to see it
outlined with a little more clarity.
