To remember
I had a long series of dreams last night in which I was shown in excruciatingly exact detail the proper technique to be used, by which to gain knowledge and therefore control over known objects and systems, physical and conceptual, for the furtherance of understanding of these subjects. Unfortunately, given the interplay between the tenuousness of dream memory and the difficulty I have in committing such memories to paper upon awakening, I have only the most rudimentary advice left, which might nonetheless prove useful:
In order to obtain knowledge of a thing, whereby a level of control may be leveraged, meditate fully on what is the thing and what is not the thing, or, to put it another way, think clearly about the thing and its opposite, for a specified time, until these dissimilar elements should become one thing in your understanding, at which time your knowledge of the thing will have progressed substantially.
As a footnote, let the reader beware that my recent reading of H.P.Loveraft's The Lurker at the Threchold may have somewhat influenced my choice of phrase here. I promise to be "back to normal" as soon as it is reaonably possible.
