The Master is happy.
His adherents are spreading their training and devotions in ever widening spheres. They have taken their training to the boards. As a famously ferocious guru, this happiness may surprise some of you.
Why, you may ask, is the Master happy that his adherents have taken up new meditations when they have not perfected their current ones.
The Master hates stupid questions. They indicate stupid people.
Thus, those who question this issue shall have their folly brought home to them by a stunning blast from the Master’s brain. So, next time an unworthy adherent awakes with a worse headache than ever before, be aware that it was not the alcohol, it was the Master’s justifiable punishment that the unworthy may learn.
The Master wishes his devotees to constantly seek out new means of training their minds. The theatre of the boards is a perfect analogy for the Master’s teachings. There are no brakes, no thoughts, just action on the track machine. Such sessions provide a further window into the philosophy of the Master and motion under stress.
Whereas the Master may, and indeed frequently does, conduct his own meditation in minefields and warzones, the merely adept do not need to put themselves into a life-threatening situation in order to learn: mere moderate danger is enough. For the warrior adept to act correctly in a race, the must know how to deal with real physical danger, so mere mental stress in a race situation does not affect their purity of action.
After all, what are a few scars or burns or abrasions or broken bones compared to the nirvana of perfection of mind and body that can be achieved from true mastery of the mind and body through the culturing and conquering of pain? So the devotee should place themselves in controllable, but dangerous, situations so they may achieve greater self-awareness.
