Notes by TK
The Mystic creates his own reality, but lives in the ordinary one from the LOC/line of consciousness, down.

The existentialism of chronology: an anecdotal essay
The prime minister told the leaders of parliament:
“Gentlemen, we are rapidly running out of time — as a matter of fact -as some of you may have already heard,
The tenth of next month has been moved up to the eighth.”

In the world of arts, technique is everything! — if you have no creativity. …same in the world of academics.
…okay, and same in the whole world of thought.
Okay – addendum: if you don’t seem to “quite” understand this, it’s proof that you damn well do!
94072- 3
The royal, neural hierarchy
No king rules without the support of his chef.
94072- 4
…okay — instant follow-up:
Chefs & their kin can function without any assistance from above.
….(in one sense: sad to say — but true, nonetheless.)
A chap recently reflected:
“Once you can think allegorically all the time,
I’ll bet you could go crazy without all of the effort & expense most people have to go through.”
94072- 5
Today’s creation story
Life originally told man that after he got through working, he could play,
But soon added the condition that he would even have to take play – “Seriously.’ a few ignored this.
94072- 6
The existentialism of spatial relationships: an anecdotal treatise–
As the music grew ominous, and the gigantic enemy space ship
Slowly drifted into view on screen,
One movie goer punched his buddy and said:
“Jesus! — would you look at the size of that thing!?”
And his friend whispered back: “It’s actually just a scale model,”
And the first guy replied: “Yeah, but still — look at the size of it.”
94072- 7
How things are – explained briefly & simply, (even in non-routine areas)
The single, striking feature of those who are “More conscious” is that they are simply more conscious of how things are.
94072- 8
Life told one man,
Apparently caught up in the intrigue of the mystical, “If you’re gonna take up
This kind of hobby
You’re gonna have to give up being sensitive and touchy.”
One fellow said:
“I don’t really object to the idea of change and evolution, if I just knew for sure I wouldn’t be left behind.”
94072- 9
One man would allow his tongue to repeat the thoughts of others only if his mind always followed it by silently adding the notation, “Sic.”
A viewer writes:
“I must thank you for your show, and all it has taught me.
It has been a great relief to learn that no one else knows anything either. Thank you so much for this insight.
Yours most truly” etc.

“Honesty is for sheep, morality is for dogs, and decency is for swine.” So said the head vulture to his constituency.
And now, this feature: “How it goes” (according to one man):
“Until you’re civilized, you don’t worry about things — then when you are — you do, too much.”
Everywhere he looked, one man saw rats,
And everywhere his brother looked, he saw cats, then their mother called out:
“Okay, you two lobes — time to come in now.”
94072-11
The existentialism of etymology: an anecdotal, consumer overview :
“Well, hey man!” countered the man behind the counter to the customer, “Allegories aren’t perfect, or they wouldn’t be allegories!” and the customer asked: “Then what is perfect?”
And the counterman replied: “Things un-described.”
So, the customer said: “Okay, give me three to go.”

Compared to other creatures, man is astounding;
Compared to what he could be, even more so.
94072-13
The difference between psychology and this kind of stuff
Is that psychology tries to help you better to be human,
While this kind of stuff helps you do better than that.
94072-14
Sex props up local physical conditions, seriousness, local mental ones.
A neighborhood actor mused: “Though we’re all on stage –
Where is our neural prompter!?”
94072-15
How life taught local conditions to handle the overall social requirements
Of civilizing mortals via the, “Crooked man” principle:
“Just remember” said the former to the latter,
“You can’t convert, control, or, make-feel-guilty, a straight (that is) a straight-forward person.”
“
Heh, heh! — that’s right!” crackled the evil one, looking in from afar, “Keep ’em blinkin’ and always — lookin’ off!”
“Hummm” reflected a king upon hearing of this,
“No wonder my own in-house priest’s ‘story of creation’ doesn’t make any sense
94072 – 16
Fact: genes have names — but men don’t know what they are.
…okay, a few people know.
94072-17
Core-time, and, wrap-around time: a quick anecdotal look:
One man said to his mind:
“Since intelligence itself has been around longer than I have personally, tell me: is it hard getting old?”
And his mind replied:
“I’m the wrong one to ask — I’m dead already.”
And the man said: “Oh’ ….Oh, I knew that.”

No one cares what-the simple have to say other than the other equally simple -and no one at all cares what the non-simple might say.
Instant analysis:
“Well biff, I’d say that’s fair enough, wouldn’t you!?”
“Gee rock, that’s a tough one — back to you,”
94072 -18- (b)
We now interrupt our regular programming to bring you this important, late-breaking human news story:
The whole world’s a cliche.
94072 -19
A quick test, (should you. Ever want one), to determine just how much local smart people in your area actually know:
Do they know that all of existence — including the human area of smartness -is simply a struggle for dominance!?
….(yeah — I thought not!)
94072-20
One guy told his cousin, (who was sometimes, kinda weird),
“You know, you can keep screwin’ around with your mind until you don’t know what the hell you’re doin’!” and his cousin replied:
“What the hell are you talking about!?” and the dog by the door muttered: “Watch where the hell you’re walking.”
And that about concludes that story.
94072-21
According to one legend, one day someone asked god:
“What would be required if you did decide that man should progress faster than he is now.”
And god looked around and replied: “Some additional help.”
94072-22
The thing that makes funny stuff funny is that it’s true.
94072 -23
A lad & his insight: yep, another: personal anecdote–
One day a kid suddenly thought:
“If people actually learned anything in schools,
Then the schools wouldn’t have to issue diplomas & degrees to prove it!”
94072-24
From one view,
There is actually extant more justice in the blind, mechanical operations of mere physical survival than there is in man’s civilized, Enlighted judicial concepts,
In that the former affords wide, more relaxed areas of neither all black-or-white, this-or-that, right-or-wrong than does man’s mental concepts —
This is witnessed by the fact that life does not condemn the dumb to: “Dumb-themselves-to-death”.
94072-25
Today’s myth
Originally men were given the job of being inventors, but most became discoverers,
A few held out.
94072-26
Every little thing people do they do for a variety of reasons —
They actually do them for only one reason, but see it as being for a variety.
94072-27
Today’s inspirational: personal anecdote–
Once upon a time, a man wrote god and asked:
“Does it count if you’re just naturally kind and considerate?” and god wrote him back: “Most certainly it does! —
Just the same as if you were naturally mean and malicious.”
….(a little, off-the-record item:
One day god wrote this show and asked:
“Just what chu got against personal anecdotes any way!?”)

Lip-to-lip legend has it that at one ancient mystical school
The graduating class one year was advised:
“If any of you ever wanna get publicly famous and popular — die quick.”
And one part of one man’s mind told another part of his mind:
“Now don’t you pay no-0-0 attention to nutty stories like that!”
Yes, has been said that: “A man’s mind is his castle”
But at local levels this is only true if his castle is forever crumbling.
One man began to run so short of time that he substituted a cucumber.
94072-29
One chap’s free observation for our fine audience:
Realizing just how dense, turgid and un-interested are the minds of ordinary men
Can be a most liberating experience.
A certain kid with new glasses thought:
“Seeing how the serious drown in their own bile
Seems to somehow make it easier for me to float.
The title of his optometrist’s yet-to-be-released cd is:
“Only the stupid believe that other people are stupid!
….On purpose or by accident …or for some other reason.”
94072-30
A more conscious intellect disassembles routine reality
While civilization’s continually trying to patch it up and hold it together.
94072-31
Once upon a time, a band of neural frontiersmen began to feel that local conditions was discriminating against them for their efforts — but then realized it was just ignoring them.
94072-32
Another maxim, updated for your maximum use & enjoyment:
Tis been said that a man kills the thing he loves,
But it should read: an extremely stupid man kills the thing he loves.
94072 -33
How the mind normally works, couched in commercial terms:
It will “Pay for” anything! As long as it doesn’t have to pay for it.
94072-34
Mysticism is the supreme form of creativity in that each mystic creates his own whole new world.
Also: should you care for a wider, more materialistic description, we could define “Mysticism” as:
Non-partisan religion,
Non-party politics, and,
Reality with no spin on it.
94072-35
One man adopted a policy of: “I don’t read anyone who’s dumber than me.”
His library card expired in 1948.
94072-36
Today’s opinion poll
The best thing about being a fake mystic is that the kinds of things
You think you’ve discovered are so weird that nobody will pay much attention
To you.
With a margin-of-error of: plus-or-minus, no per cent.
“Daddy, is this why tinsel-town transcendentals always construct false fronts for their Potemkin villages!?”
“My boy, at times your scintillating, circular redundancy takes on the glow of downright genius.”
94072-37
The road to myth is paved with hope,
The road to hope is paved with belief,
The road to belief is paved with fear,
And the road to fear is paved with fear.
In spite of the direction this notation took,
There is also a road from myth — on to someplace else.
94072-38
Okay–
A final, “what-it’s-not-based,” definitive look at it again:
Anyone who listens to anyone else is not a mystic.
…oh, all right—an absolute final one:
A mystic alone is responsible for what he is.
Okay, all right—there you are
Finis, already!
