This is some hermetic stuff. I recognize your wisdom, but I choose not to follow it. Though they may have been a very good path to truth, even if blurred, it was still muddled and ridden with tenuous cause and effect and confusing relationships.
Instead, I give you this, a sentence that succinctly summarizes your superfluous spiel.
"Every action and thought is learning. The more you learn, the harder it is to unlearn".
Your brain is made out of millions of self-reinforcing pathways, pathways that carefully remember every action you complete, every thought you imagine. The more memorable a thought is, the more likely you will be to return to it. The more successful an action is, the more likely you will repeat it.

One must realize this simple fact: We are all biological machines. That is why there exists men that fight back, men that are not slaves to their own circuitry, men that exercise true Will. Once a man realizes he is merely a machine, he questions himself, not the world. He begins unraveling his truths, his wishes, his fears and his lies. To truly pierce
