"The fog" which is spoken of is the failure to recognize/acknowledge any of the above and/or be under the influence of the "Love Drug (PEA)" which prevents ANY analysis of the above. I would also consider that the attitude of "R's run theit course and that's that" IS a attributeable and a symptom of the same "fog"
Ah, The "fog." But does not the "Sun" dissipate the "Fog?"
For a moment consider, human beings living in a underground cave since childhood. Their legs and necks chained so that they cannot move. Prisoners. The mouth of their prison opens toward the light and behind them a fire. So, all that they could see would be shadows.
Their reality would be literally nothing but the shadows of what is going on behind their backs.
Now, suppose we were to release these "prisoners" and lead them out of the mouth of the cave. At first, would not, the sun be harsh to their eyes? Painful and irritating. And confusing, as they would not fully understand their new reality and, simultaneously, not be able to see the "realities" of the shadows of their former captivity.
Yet, their eyes will grow accustom to the light. At first, focusing on shadows, then reflections, then objects themselves. Till eventually he would be able to look into the light. The sun.
At that point, he no longer would be able to see in his old habitat but now would be able to contemplate the meaning of this new existence, which offers more than that of living in darkness.
Certainly. I think that it would better to suffer and experience that which is foreign than to entertain false notions and live in a miserable manner.
