things that try very hard to break down the map/territory distinction.
None of the mysticism/woo I’ve dabbled in has involved breaking map/territory distinctions, and that’s not where any of the value in it’s come from for me. Almost all of the value’s been in giving me better tools for introspection, accessing my body, and understanding other people.
I’m also worried about this post being insufficiently rigorous. I didn’t finish reading it because I expected to wince.
