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.

Sorry, Ron, but I still don't understand what you're saying.
