Buddha and Buddhism puts emphasis on clearing [compulsive] attachments and aversions from the mind as the path to freedom from mind-entity interiorization.
My observation is that the Must-Know and the Must-be-Known needs to focus more on clearing out attachments because for these two case types the pleasure of attachments seems so "right", so "good", so "beautiful" or sensational. For example, for me Level Two was mostly a clearing of attachment to aesthetics and less of clearing aversions to things. It seems that with everything in my mind, aesthetics were the tent pegs. I don't know if that is true for others who share my case tendency... it might be other types of attachments; however aesthetics is senior in the scale of sensations. Whereas the must-not-know and the must-not-be-known need to focus on clearing out aversions which seem so right and true to them. For example, if I find myself with an incident where I am rejecting someone, I clear out that and then I find that what is still holding it there is some aesthetic attachment I have long held for certain colors, textures, shapes. Of course it can get more complicated than that when there are IP states. For general compatibility the to-know and the to-be-known can both understand pursuing attachments, and the not-know and not-be-known can appreciate acting out aversions; however, from personal experience, a "to-be-known" case type can benefit greatly from the example set by a "not-be-known" case type, and get wise that sometimes it is a good idea to not-be-known. The ultimate idea is to play non-compulsive games or no games at all.... so we're back to no attachments and no aversions, and some timebreaking along those lines that our particular case composition demonstrates. Can you see how Level Two leading to Level Five cures that. "Scientology can help you with that" was often said when around Church recruiters (smile) trying to discover your "ruin". Colleen P.S. I just pushed an ant away because of memories of them biting and stinging and realized she is still allowed in my space/mind in spite of the experiences because I love the rich shiny blackness and the slender elongated form. colleen
