Back in business ...
So it seems. Also, the green spots in the pile of ashes strewn accross the tablet I use
to empty out my bong heads (it's a glass bong, so it has a sieve rather than just a
hole) are probably not enough anymore to consider me having any.
And yea - downturns after sessions such as this one are rough. So my experience.
Did I have a different word for that? It seems like ... or is it that I back then just
... . Anyway, it shouldn't be the same word. But it's a downturn alright.
So, what's on the agenda? Well, as for Gnosis for Dummies 3 I wanted to focus on Dogma.
Dogma was actually the topic of the first draft - and there's also a missing chapter to
what I wrote in part 2. That part however was to be the segue into the "What is Christian
Tradition" part - but then I came up with the layout I ended up with, so, that chapter
wasn't necessary. So, I figured it best to leave it at that. And it was then that I
actually remembered the word 'Dogma' again.
And being here now to ponder over it, there's some deeper and more complicated stuff to
it, that I should probably keep out of the "for Dummies" thing, maybe. If I can't boil
it down enough, it doesn't have a place in there.
I mean - first of I all I just happened to feel that I shouldn't use the word 'Dogma' at
all. And that could also be the whole narrative. The why. That "'Dogma' isn't a Christian
word or so", because that'd be the message anyway. After all. Perhaps. Though what I
actually did try at first was the opposite. More or less. So, Part 2 originally would have
been ... I can't even word it properly. So, whatever.
Clarity perhaps. Clarity that people want. And yea, so - I've started with it ... and
yea, whatever.
On a different note ... uh, I should perhaps keep it to myself.
