All this energy invested into systems. Systems require time to assimilate and this is a natural progressive activity. Usually stretches over a lifetime. A mild offering of hope is interwoven through the discipline.
Occasionally, my taste for this art turns bitter and I begin to reject it. This is a indication that I have usually crossed my threshold. Not in discipline nor in practice. It is true that cessation motivates me. For this I have no shame. Yet I know that I will return to my systems in time.
I do not condemn myself to hedonism, nor do I reject the suspicions that I am being hoodwinked by schema. I somehow retain an observance that simultaneously allows for subjectivity.

The act of envisioning the barque traveling across the surface lends itself quite well to invoking elements of the Bardo Thodol. Here is a good article on the Bardos: From Rest for the Fortunate by Bardor Tulku Rinpoche
