Foreword
|
||||||
|
========
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Every mystic needs their own gospel. You can't just go around, claiming "Those
|
||||||
|
dudes pretty much said it all." and expect to be taken seriously. You have to
|
||||||
|
not just invent your own terms, mythology and techniques, you also need your own
|
||||||
|
Holy Texts about Everything One Needs To Know. At the very least, write some
|
||||||
|
~~fanfic~~ new revelations to some other text. But then it better have some
|
||||||
|
angels and dragons and shit!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
So, here is mine. Even with added confusing commentary! Further revelations will
|
||||||
|
be added as The One That Knows Shit (TOKSHI, 特使) teaches me more.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Gospel of Muflax
|
||||||
|
================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Thus have I heard.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. TOKSHI said, nothing lasts.[^anicca] If you watch closely, things keep on
|
||||||
|
wobbling away, even really sticky ones.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. TOKSHI said, don't identify with things. Those that think they are things,
|
||||||
|
become things. Those that don't think they are things, aren't bogged down by
|
||||||
|
all the silly associations.[^anatta]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. TOKSHI said, now is good, tomorrow never good enough.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. TOKSHI said, don't force it. Things have a way of getting done if you don't
|
||||||
|
try to get them done while getting them done.[^gtd]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. TOKSHI said, do whatever you want to do because that's what you're gonna do
|
||||||
|
anyway. But try being nice sometimes?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. TOKSHI said, those that know the Law, will follow it. Those that say they
|
||||||
|
know the Law, will break It. But they will get laid.[^unity]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. TOKSHI said, it's worse than you think. The Thing That Makes Things Happen
|
||||||
|
According To Plan lost The Plan, but It is pretty good at faking
|
||||||
|
it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. TOKSHI said, the universe doesn't care about you. Like, at all.[^emptiness]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. TOKSHI said, if you try hard, you can do some wicked shit with your mind.
|
||||||
|
Play around some time.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. TOKSHI said, everything is better with practice. Try it some more, you will
|
||||||
|
get good at it, promise. This includes dying.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. TOKSHI said, don't wish for things because then you will get exactly what
|
||||||
|
you wished for and it will totally suck and you will look stupid.[^wish]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. TOKSHI said, you have a brain the size of a coconut. You think that's just
|
||||||
|
the right size to understand everything? Are you sure about that?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. TOKSHI said, there are only two correct answers to the question "What is
|
||||||
|
this?"[^whatisthis] - the first, "It's not what you think it is."; the
|
||||||
|
second, "Let me show you!".
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. TOKSHI said, every strength is a weakness. Be empty, be invincible.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. TOKSHI said, fail in interesting ways.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. TOKSHI said, don't be happy.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[^anatta]:
|
||||||
|
Try "finding yourself" some time. But don't do a half-assed job and stop
|
||||||
|
with the first thing that comes up. Be thorough. Allow yourself to be
|
||||||
|
genuinely surprised. If it makes sense right away, then it is most
|
||||||
|
definitely wrong.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A koan. One day, a monk went to TOKSHI and said, "Holy One, my mind has no
|
||||||
|
peace as yet. Please, put it to rest.". TOKSHI quoted,
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> Huike said, "Your disciple's mind has no peace as yet. Master, please, put
|
||||||
|
> it to rest.". Bodhidharma said, "Bring me your mind, and I will put it to
|
||||||
|
> rest.". Huike said, "I have searched for my mind, but I cannot find it.".
|
||||||
|
> Bodhidharma said, "I have completely put it to rest for you.".
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The monk searched and returned. "Holy One, I have searched for my mind and
|
||||||
|
found it. Please, put it to rest now.". Upon hearing this, TOKSHI died.

When you watch yourself watching yourself, you will occassionally catch
|
||||||
|
yourself not watching yourself. Really. Try it. (Unfortunatly, it takes a
|
||||||
|
lot of practice to get there. The problem is developing a strong enough
|
||||||
|
concentration and to get rid of many mental filters until you can direct
|
||||||
|
your attention at your own attention. The rest falls into place in no time.)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You see, even the elementary metaphysics of the universe are too lazy to put
|
||||||
|
in full effort all the time. But hey, being All There Is can be exhausting
|
||||||
|
sometimes. You'd cut corners, too.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[^gtd]:
|
||||||
|
Imagine the world being run by the most spiteful of all Demons. Whatever you
|
||||||
|
plan, it will prevent. Whatever you want, it will take away. Whatever you
|
||||||
|
want to avoid, it will force on you. But if you stop making any plans, it
|
||||||
|
can't do anything anymore. The opposite of zero is still zero.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This is when the Tao can take over. The Tao is a lot nicer than the Demon.
|
||||||
|
So, stop making plans. And imagining demons. What are you, 5?
|
||||||

Bullshitting others and yourself is a crucial skill in evolution. Even
|
||||||
|
bacteria fake hard work while slacking off. Saying what is right, but
|
||||||
|
doing what is convenient is the Ultimate Shortcut.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[^emptiness]:
|
||||||
|
This place is Limbo. It is utterly devoid of Meaning, of Truth, of Value, of
|
||||||
|
God, of Purpose or of Choice. You are not even a prisoner or a slave because
|
||||||
|
there is no Master, no Punishment, no Torment and no Guilt.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Nothing you, or any one else, does, matters. Understanding is irrelevant and
|
||||||
|
temporary. Ignorance always takes over, no Structure lasts, everything is
|
||||||
|
ground down eventually. There is no escape, but also no meaning to be had in
|
||||||
|
suffering or revolution because there is no one watching, nothing to escape
|
||||||
|
into and no transformation to be achieved. All we will ever do will be
|
||||||
|
undone.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It is the worst of all Hells because it uses consciousness against itself.
|
||||||
|
If there were active punishment, active torment, any plan at all, we could
|
||||||
|
rebel. We could take a stand. If there were any purpose, Freedom would be
|
||||||
|
possible.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It is the best of all Heavens because it never lasts, never allows us to
|
||||||
|
grasp it, never fulfills. It gives us constant struggle, doomed to failure,
|
||||||
|
and in it, we strive.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It is just on the brink of emptiness, just full enough that our minds can
|
||||||
|
make out Forms and Shadows, but not enough for them to hold onto. All
|
||||||
|
suffering is self-inflicted by delusion, but knowledge is impossible, and
|
||||||
|
delusion becomes inevitable.

A long time ago, a young monk had a clear vision of The Perfect Life,
|
||||||
|
including a place to live and a girl to be with. Then he moved to that
|
||||||
|
place and met the girl and he was really unhappy. Turned out, he didn't
|
||||||
|
actually like being there and the girl was kinda boring and just as full of
|
||||||
|
fear and uncertainty as the monk, so what good is she, really?
|
||||||

After a lesson, TOKSHI would often meet with individual students in private
|
||||||
|
and allow them to ask any question about things they didn't understand. One
|
||||||
|
day, an especially curious monk hid behind a curtain and listened to the
|
||||||
|
conversations. This day, three students came.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The first student asked TOKSHI, "Holy One, you have told us about God. I
|
||||||
|
don't know what God is. Can you tell me?", and TOKSHI answered, "It's not
|
||||||
|
what you think it is. Let me show you!", upon which TOKSHI would make the
|
||||||
|
student see God.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The second student asked TOKSHI, "Holy One, you mentioned rebirth. What is
|
||||||
|
this?", and TOKSHI answered, "It's not what you think it is. Let me show
|
||||||
|
you!", upon which TOKSHI would make the student be reborn.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The third student asked TOKSHI, "Holy One, what is liberation?", and TOKSHI
|
||||||
|
answered, "It's not what you think it is. Let me show you!", upon which
|
||||||
|
TOKSHI would make the student free.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Upon hearing TOKSHI's three answers, the monk was enlightened.
