William,
Uh-uh. Figuring out takes time on the spot. You're a dead man in a crisis.
The one who can act spontaneously and unburdened survives. It's called
intimacy, not thought.
It's manifestly and demonstrably true in our practice as well. But you must
practice in order to be restored, because there's no reason to believe it
otherwise, especially by those who take an "authority" on a subject to be a
threat. I do not say that you do this, and I say this to emphasize that only
practice is convincing because it is entirely transformative, by simply
restoring the full complement of our human inheritance to currency. I hope you
see, or will see.
