“Was not their mistake once more bred of the life of slavery that they had been living?—a life which was always looking upon everything, except mankind, animate and inanimate—‘nature,’ as people used to call it—as one thing, and mankind as another, it was natural to people thinking in this way, that they should try to make ‘nature’ their slave, since they thought ‘nature’ was something outside them” — William Morris

Mystery Project Update 5

Oh, all right, all right—it's Buddhaphobia. I realized I needed to revise it and I didn't want to jinx it by being too out about it. But I've had enough insights in the last few days that I'm okay with the project right now. I've written 26 000 words since last Thursday. I think I'm going to carry on thinking things through rather than reading too many notes yet, though I may start to glance at them. It's really paying off. But I have to let the insights happen.
