In essence, the goal is formation of a unified, consistent, and coherent theory from which questions from the largest to the smallest can be measured, and at least addressed, if not comprehensively answered.
Largest, as in: What do I do today and why?
Smallest, as in: How do I sleep well and safe tonight no matter where I am?
Science, politics, religion/spirituality, philosophy, art … Bushcraft.
Every commonplace notion which We hold as a given and take for granted is destructively wrong–just look around and that much will be obvious to your heart.
To hell and be damned with the gospel according to Oprah and Donald and Diddy and Joe and every boss or commander that ever lived, and whatever your lovely evil iPhone is telling you right now, including these words.
Rip those wrong notions out by the roots and start over.
If you meet the Buddha on the road, kill him.
The Way is a small seed inside you.
The stalk that cracks the shell and reaches for the sun is your spine.

no one is united
and all things are untied
perhaps we’re boiling over inside
They’ve been telling lies

There are no angels
There are devils in many ways
Take it like a man
…
Drag on the system, drag on my head and body
There are some facts here that refuse to escape
…
Tomorrow night maybe be too late
Both moons are full
