suggest a visual image
or at least
a 4D kinesthetic one
and even when the
'reality'
corresponding to the concept
is physically far away
we can manipulate the image
create plans for it
ponder its structure
and even cultivate
new habits
towards it
(self-reprogramming)
but when the reality
behind that concept
re-appears physically before us
it's like an empty mask
being filled by a real face
that may or may not
exactly fulfill
our expectations
our images of
ourselves
are a specially problematic case
because we hate to
disappoint the expectations
of those we respect
but the face
that re-appears behind these
masks of self
is wholly untouched
by most
mental reprogramming
boomer adults still act out
infantile ego-patterns
therapists rarely
gain any real leverage/purchase
on the roots of clients' neuroses
but krishnamurti
teaches
an approach via
negatiating with
the face itself
not just the mask
