<p>Yah... that's kinda the vibe I get from DT, Bannon, Stone, Miller
and many of the Jan 6 crowd. <br>
</p>
<p>I have a thing with the triad of Blame/Shame/Guilt.... I think
a lot of folks conflate Shame and Guilt and avoid the (healthy?)
self-regulation of Guilt in the name of refusing to be
(unhealthily)Shamed. Shame-avoidance does seem to enhance
Freedom-sensation the same way a warm gun fits the hand (Beetles
reference), but Guilt-embrace seems (to me) to allow for a finer
attention to detail in the fractal landscape of Choice (whether it
is an illusion or not) which maybe in some way increases freedom
of choice/will?<br>
</p>
<p>I'm probably wrong about all this (whatever wrong means in this
case) but it is how I have come to model my own personal
responsibility (no matter what Sapolsky says about whether I have
any choices or not).</p>
<p>My own Labrynthian path through the Maze of Being is something of
a Return to Grace journey... not literally the Judeo-Christian
Grace (involving Eden and Apples and Serpents and such) but
something metaphorically aligned. Best I can tell, I'll only
reach that state (of Grace) asymptotically (as with Satori?) on a
trajectory of senescence and/or extinction (of the ego with or
without the body)? At that point maybe Satori and Grace are
synonyms?<br>
