I agree. I was just wondering myself whether there is
an archetype of a fool who would really be a fool, not
merely a clever disguise for someone who is actually
wise?

Often times common folk tend to confuse a truly wise
person for a fool. But, fools are not merely
fictitious -- there are some real specimens to be
found pretty much everywhere. Do we have archetypes
for those?

If not, I'd say we'd have to invent them.

No. I believe that striving to control my thoughts
will sharpen my abilities to perceive the true nature
of phenomena. Once that happens, I will be free of
expectations, worries and obsessions.
