A Wanderers way is a collection of thoughts or concepts investigated by the author. It is
shared with you, the reader, with the possibility of helping you along your path of learning.
With that said however, The title A Wanderers way suggests two things, the first being it was
written by or for wanderers. The second is that the text offers a way or path. With regards
to the first suggestion, both are only possibly correct. If we define a wanderer as an individual
who has wandered into this realm and as such is searching for an understanding or meaning to
this realm, then it is possible the author may fit this category and it is possible the reader may
also. The reader may consider as appropriate. Such a title or label as wanderer may be used as
there are those who this text is not for. This is not because the text is intended in any way to be
exclusive. It is a simple case that there are those who simply do not fit the category, that is, they
do not seek such knowledge, or perhaps refuse it in some way. Whatever the case or reasons it
is their choice and they may change such a choice in time. Perhaps ironically the text does
investigate why such individuals may not have the characteristics of seeking and how they may
develop or reclaim such characteristics. The second suggestion of a way is partially correct.
It is correct in the sense that the text is intended to be both sufficient to live by or work with, and
functional enough to be both practical mentally and physically. It is incorrect in the sense that it
is an incomplete way, or rather it is open ended. With application and analysis it may become
self evolving rather than a static system or way. These aspects are considered in greater detail in
the text.Lastly some suggestions for reading. There are limitations to language and limitations or
inabilities on both the authors and the readers part. Whilst care has been taken to try to ensure
an exactness to the writing so as to convey concepts as clearly as possible, there will perhaps
always be some loss or inaccuracies in the conveyance of concepts to the reader. As such it is
suggested that time be taken to attempt to understand concepts rather than skimming quickly
through the text. It is still possible with this in mind for the reader to obtain an overview or to
look at specific parts of the text by skipping through or selecting specific parts. However to gain
a fuller understanding of the text, a more detailed look will likely be required along with
applicable patience.
The text is not designed, nor could it be complete. The primary reason for this lies in change. Itwould be closer to say it is a work in progress. What is intended for the reader is more akin to a
guidebook which the reader may use to test or as a stepping stone for their own investigations.
This is a lifelong process. It is suggested that in this way the reader develop their own
guidebook, if not in text, at least in thought, which may utilize any parts of this text, none at all
with or without editing. This if done would be helpful to others, particularly in comparison to
others whom have done the same. On the other side it would be unhelpful to edit this text and
share it as newly developed by the self. Correction of the errors made by the author are
welcome, however in sharing, it is advised this text is shared as is complete as per the original
whilst any edited or self developed text or thoughts are shared separately. In other words correct
errors or make additions, but keep the original, regardless of any determined errors or lack, so
that any other individual may compare and study both the original and new for themself. This
also allows the observation of how one understanding in original form may lead to an improved,clearer understanding in the future. It is the concept rather than the longevity of the text which
is of importance.
Wander forth, for all paths lead home in time.

FROM CONTROL TO FREEDOM
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way
6/111
CONTROL
Control may be defined as basically anything which hinders, limits or constrains an entity or
many entities. Its purpose is for consumption and for learning. Reasons for control however
may be anything one deems to be a reason, be they truthful or fictional. Two examples of
reasons are: For entertainment. Entertainment primarily serves as pleasure which provides
consumption. The form of which the entertainment takes is a matter of creation which islearning. For your own good. This is a delusion in the sense that one cannot determine the
ultimate affect control will have on another. They may predict and they may perceive any
outcome as good but since it is impossible to know where the entity to be controlled still
retains individual consciousness, it is a delusion. The reader may note this example and see
which pathways (see proceeding text) are active in terms of an individual controlling themself to
maintain such a delusion.
An entity out of balance or promoting/providing imbalance (by choice for example) will tend to
draw or pull others toward imbalance. Thus imbalance provides catalyst for further imbalance.
In the case of imbalance momentum may be greatly desired. As desire increases, imbalanceincreases creating an exponential rate of constriction.
Both absence and excess may be used to control. One form of control may be used to establish
or enhance another form of control. Needs and desires be they illusory to any degree or not may
also be utilized for control. The possibilities are likely limitless, however a breakdown for
analysis may be helpful. This allows firstly the identification of control and possible control
both of the self of the self, of others to the self, of the self to others and of others to others.
Finally the concept of control may be seen to be a limited one, even if it contains some universal
validity. It is worth keeping in mind that for this reason, this text itself offers an avenue for
control not intentional, but by the reader upon the reader or upon one reader to another.
To notbe limiting is to be limitless, therefore any concept or groups of concepts or philosophy
in itself needs to remain open if it is to remain limitless. It may contain universal validity, buteven such, to be free from control and thus allow freedom, needs to be open to question,
consideration and contemplation at the least, otherwise it changes from limitless to finite - with
limit. In this way, thefearof being controlled or what may be interpreted as control, including
through an individuals understanding of the concept/word may be an avenue for control,
primarily by the self over the self.
In terms of interactivity, control tends to fortify itself and to adapt or recreate itself where
necessary. How it does this is a matter of creativity and learning. In an individual for instance
control may tend to fortify itself first by denying identification. That is, an individual may deny
that they control themself. If identified, the control may attempt to convince the individual that
it is necessary for one reason or another or many. It is also this perception just exemplified ofcontrol being either something external to the self or being an additional aspect of the self which
allows for certain rationalization as well as the demand that control itself must be controlled or
eliminated. This aspect or a similar aspect, depending on definitions and perceptions of the
concept has been called for one thing, the ego. What the reader wishes to name any such aspect
of themself is their choice, this text considers not the label nor the aspect itself, but the
characteristics, the purpose, the manufacture and the relinquishment of what is currently being
called control. As for the consideration of the mind and the origin of thoughts, this too is
analyzed in proceeding text.
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way
7/111
When a form of control is identified and/or opposed or relinquished it may either change form to
attempt again to control an entity or if the pathway or form has become obsolete, a new pathway
will need to be developed. Reasons for a pathway of control becoming obsolete extend
primarily from the controlled individual(s) learning of the control and either opposing or
rejecting it as they choose. The reader may see at this point that both control in the form of
opposition for example can eliminate or disrupt another pathway for control by another entity.
However, it essentially only serves to replace or nest the control with a different or new control.
This is also an example of control changing form. As discussed in later text, control cannot be
controlled.
If an entity under control with under being an optimal use of language in the sense it may
indicate an hierarchy of controller to the controlled learns of the way in which they are being
controlled, their is potential for the control to lose its power and thus become redundant. The
control needs to either change form or be replaced. The options to do either of these are for the
controlled entity to make the change/replacement themself, for the controlled entity to be led or
influenced into making the change/replacement or for the change/replacement being fed orforced to/onto the entity. This learning by both the controller and the controlled forms an
evolution. It is this expansion of knowledge which actually attempts to ultimately constrict
which facilitates change that may proceed at an exponential rate. It may be noted that the
methods used to control may be cyclical in that either alternating between methods or utilizing a
set pattern of methods may suffice.
It may also be noted that in order to maximize control effectiveness, a task of primary
importance to the controller is to inhibit and/or limit the cognitive ability of the one to be
controlled to the extent that prevents recognition of the control and thus opposition or
relinquishment, whilst maintaining sufficient cognitive ability for any necessary purposes of the
controller.
An example of maintaining sufficient cognitive ability of the individual to be controlled may bewhen a task that is intended to be performed by the controlled individual is no longer able to be
performed due to a breakdown in mental or cognitive ability. Thus for the controller, the
situation requires further control so that the individual being controlled may have the ability, the
desire or other requirement in order that they perform the task or be controlled as originally
planned.

PATHWAYS FOR CONTROL:
Ultimately the number or ways to control another are limitless. If a control may be deemed
successful or even partially successful depends upon those to be controlled. Therein lies the
power of the individual for all pathways for control essentially begin and end with the self. The
pathways to control of another are threefold. This is because there may be seen to be 3 entities
interacting, although the third may be in potential. The three are the one wishing to control, theone to be controlled and what we may call the environment which may actually be the
environment, or another entity or entities. So with this in mind we may see the one intending to
control may work directly, indirectly through the environment or indirectly by effectively
leading the one to be controlled into controlling themself. Either way, remember the goal is for
the benefit of the one seeking to control.
Defined pathways:
1. Alteration of perceptionThis pathway of control is aimed at creating and/or distorting an entitys view of
their perceived reality and/or perception of any given concept or topic.
[A] Adaptation
Control may take the form of having an entity adapt without question or
complacently accept their current state of being and/or future states of
being. The states are possibly more likely to be negative that is the
conditions or state of the entity being controlled or their environment is
progressively getting worse however they may also be positive. In this
latter case Illusion or falsity (false gifts) may also be active.
[B] IllusionIllusions as a pathway for control can be seen to be more than alteration
of perception. But in terms of perception, there is the alteration of the
environment, alteration of another entity (including the one intending to
control) and there is the creation of a sub illusion (or sub reality, fictional
story etc) which may then alter the controlled entitys perception of either
themself, their environment including others entities.
[C] FalsityThis pathway of control could have been grouped with illusion. It may be
seen to be illusion by inference that is the illusion is essentially self
generated by the one being controlled.
[D] Difference
This pathway of control seems to take the form of a dividing line. A
difference or division is perceived and thus allows for any number of
distortions to be implemented or allowed to flourish. Ultimately this form
of control is through limitation.
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way
9/111
2. Alteration of understandingThis pathway of control is aimed at distorting current knowledge/understanding
of the controlled entity, including the addition of distorted/incorrect/meaningless
knowledge for purposes of confusion or dilution, or subtraction of knowledge
which may aid the entity or be perceived to be a potential aid by the one
attempting to control.
[A] Direct
A direct alteration or distortion of a current understanding, including
removal/forgetting. This includes all forms of programming.
[B] Inversion
The intention with this pathway is to take the current knowledge and
convert its meaning to the opposite of what it was previously. Confusion
may be the intended outcome.
[C] Dilution
This pathway intends to muddy the pool with information which may
contain elements of truth/helpfulness/usefulness but usually contains amajority of the opposite elements. The more that is added, the more
diluted the pool of information becomes. The information may be that
which is being received by the entity, that which is being sent or that
which is stored (memory). Disinformation falls under this method as
well as bombardment or excess information inflow.
[D] Limitation
Any barrier set up to prevent or hinder expanding upon a current
understanding or as yet unknown/undiscovered piece of knowledge.
Limitation of awareness is included here as well as limitation of attention.
3. Alteration of the physical entityControl in this form is aimed at altering or limiting in some way the physical
body. In particular the functioning of the physical body which directly
inhibits/alters the mind or the capability of the entity to utilize its mind.
[A] Physical needs/desiresThese include such as food intake, exercise, intimacy but may also be
additional or become excessive or addictive. It also includes physical
aspects which may be accessory or not required for survival.
[B] Direct (Body complex)
This is straight alteration of the physical body.
[C] Direct (Body/mind complex)
This is alteration of any portion of the body which affects directly the
functioning of the mind of the entity.

10/111
4. Alteration of an entitys environmentThe environment may be seen to include the entity or entities attempting to
control if necessary. In this way the control of the entity to be controlled stems
from controlling that which is around the entity to be controlled. Thus all the
methods outlined for controlling an entity may be applied to the environment,
with some obvious exceptions depending on what the environment consists of.
[A] Time
This form of control is an option, however see alteration of perception of
time and alteration of the physical with respect to lifespan and
functionality.
[B] Space
Alteration of the physical space in which the entity dwells, resides or
visits.
[C] Physical/chemical environment.
Alteration of all other aspects of an entitys environment if the
environment is being defined as that which does not have thecontrollability of another entity or equivalent.
[D] Connection(s)
This involves the alteration or limitation of an entitys connection or
dependence on any part of its environment, including other entities. It
also involves the creation of systemized ties/dependencies.
[X] Nested control (see advanced concepts for additional information)
5. Alteration of communication
Whilst perception is defined here as that which an entity interprets of its externalenvironment including other entities, communication is any available means to
transfer/receive information from the environment or other entities, excluding the
information received via perception.
[A] Direct
This pathway is aimed at altering how communication takes place,
eliminating or limiting it either one way or both ways (input and output)
[B] Medium
This may be alteration or limitation of language or the form of
communication.
All pathways are provisional in that all situations are unique, all understanding and truths may
be seen to be spectral rather than correct or incorrect or probable/possible. However, the
readers understanding of truth, understanding, correctness, distortion and the like may be used
for understanding the text. It may be interesting for the reader to note the control and freedom
of ones mind is present even as one reads this book, just as it was when it was written. In
particular, the pathway of communication (book and words/ language) is already in play as this
book is currently written/read.
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way
11/111
Examples of pathways
Simple examples:
1. Alteration of perception
[A] AdaptationAn entity (person) is introduced to a new law which prevents them from
leaving their home after a particular time at night. The entity cannot do
certain activities previously done outside the home after the set time, but
adapts to the new situation by altering their schedule.
[B] Illusion
An entity reads a fictional novel or watches a fictional film. This is a sub-
illusion example. This in itself is only potential control, unless pathways
to control are utilized within the film or book or by reading the book or
watching the film another pathway is being utilized (such as the limitation
of time). Even if no pathways to control are active, the potential pathway
may still be the alteration of perception by the nature of a sub-illusion.
[C] FalsityAn entity dreams up another entity which instructs the dreaming entity
what to do or think.
[D] Difference
An entity perceives a difference in another entity which may be irrelevant,
but is not perceived as such.
2. Alteration of understanding
[A] Direct
1. An entity is programmed with the understanding that it must serve,
replacing the previous, possibly less distorted understanding that serving
was optional.2. An entity understands its thoughts to be beneficial to its being when
they may not be.
[B] Inversion
1. An entity perceives power in the hands of many is potentially
dangerous, therefore power in the hands of few is ideal is adopted as a
new understanding.
2. An entity receives information directly opposite to the currently held
understanding. The entity may accept the new understanding or be
confused.
[C] Dilution
An entity holds a given understanding, but is given several new
understandings on the same issue/topic/concept and thus is unsure if itshould discard the new, adopt the new, merge the new with the old,
discard all or other.
[D] Limitation
An entity understands that an offering shall only be made to those which
the entity perceives as deserving of such offering.
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way
12/111
3. Alteration of the physical entity
[A] Physical needs/desires
The entity is altered to require additional food intake for general being.
[B] Direct (Body complex)
The height of the entity is altered.
[C] Direct (Body/mind complex)
The brain chemistry of the entity is altered via electromagnetic induction.
4. Alteration of an entitys environment
[A] Time
The entitys environment increases in rate of change.
[B] Space
An entity is confined to a small room void of light.
[C] Physical/chemical environment.
Various chemicals are introduced to an entitys immediate environment
[D] Connection(s)
All entities apart from the entity to be controlled are altered in form. The
entity to be controlled loses (a perceived) connection with the newly
formed entities.
5. Alteration of communication[A] Direct
1. An entity adopts a new form of communication with greater limits than
the previously used one.
[B] Medium
2. The language used by an entity is morphed to the point where the
words/symbols/concepts are less understood collectively by all those
communicating.
Combination examples
1. 1.[D][B][C] Difference + Illusion/Falsity
An entity views a given situation as either being one way or another,
wrong or right when in actuality the situation is variable over time within
a set or unlimited spectrum.
2. 4.[C][D] Physical/chemical + Connections
An entitys environment is damaged via chemicals which in turn creates
feelings of lack of connection or a (perceived) necessarily generatedconnection to the environment by the entity.
3. 3. [A][B][C] Needs/desires + Body complex + Mind/body complex
An entity ingests a particular chemical on a regular basis which in turn
alters its brain chemistry, altering the capacity of the entitys thought
which in turn alters the body complex of the entity.
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way
13/111
Complex integrated examples
1. Overview:
An initial group of entities are programmed with an understanding of a perceived
problem which must be corrected for the well being of those with the perceived
problem. In this case the problem is the risk of disease. The solution
generated by the group involves altering the body complex of those deemed to be
at risk of the proclaimed disease. The group to be treated in this case have
divided in two. Those that have accepted the understanding and hence accept the
treatment and those that reject the understanding of treatment but adopt an
inverted understanding of the necessity for correction by the initial group. This
third group rejects the proposed solution then protests. The situation remains
open for further control.
Breakdown:
2. [A][D] Direct + Limitation, 1.[B] Illusion
The initial group is directly controlled as well as controlled by limitation with the
understanding of a perceived problem and the understanding that they must fix
such problem and by doing so they will be helping the other entities. The illusion
is the perceived problem which contains sub illusions or distorted understandings
of risk and disease. Note this may also be seen as a nested control in that the
distorted understandings of risk and disease are created first and then used
unknowingly within another pathway to control.
2. [A][D] Direct + Limitation, 1.[A] Adaptation, 3. [B] Body complex,
possibly 3.[C] also.
The newly formed group which accepts the treatment: Understandings from the
initial group are transferred to this group. This may be seen to be adaptation.
Limitation may be seen to be the understanding of the option presented is the
only option or only perceived viable option. This control may have been presentpreviously or adopted from the initial group. The treatment then alters the body
and possibly body/mind complex. This in itself may or may not be control,
depending on the alteration of course. An example would be if the treatment had
negligible or nil effect on the group. It is also possible in the scenario that the
treatment provided some benefit. Also note a dependency may have been created
in that the group to be treated now may depend upon the initial group for further
treatments.
(Breakdown continued)
2. [A][B][D] Direct + Inversion + Limitation, 1. [D] DifferenceThe newly formed group which rejected treatment: Some understandings from
the initial group may have been transferred whilst the understanding of the
necessity of treatment is inverted to become no treatment is necessary. This
inversion of the understanding may actually purify the understanding or it may
control in another way via limitation that is, no help is required, it was the only
option, the first group can no longer be trusted, etc. The provisions to what
control is ultimately generated from the scenario depends also on other
understandings, perceptions and awareness of the entities involved. An example
of difference in perception as a control pathway in this scenario is the third group
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way
14/111
defining the treatment as right or wrong. Then with the protesting, the
distorted understanding is thrust upon others and the pathways to control
continue.
Additional:
Within this scenario control may be considered interlinked. The initial group
attempts to control another group, of which some are controlled more than others.One group out of the divided group then attempts to control others (via
protesting).
Examples of possible resultant control:
4. [D] Connections, 1. [D] Difference
The groups may now perceive differences in each other which
may generate further control by altering understanding. For
example, the protesting group may see the initial group as
untrustworthy and the group who were treated as gullible orfoolish. Both the initial group and the treated group may see the
protesting group as disturbances or troublemakers or similar.
So there may be disruption or alteration to the connections
between the groups and/or there may be alteration to the perceived
differences of the groups.
4. [C] Physical/chemical
The treatment, be it applied to the treated group or not is a
possibility for further control of the chemical/physical
environment. An exception to this may be if the treatment has no
possibility of residue.
5. [A] DirectThe changes that may take place by the three groups may also
affect communication. An example being one group refusing or
limiting communication to another group likely due to alteration
in connections and perceived differences.

Additional:
The reader may note from this scenario that control may not always be direct or
intended by the participants, although the pathways or possible pathways may
still be present.
Possible additional pathways include alteration of connections between all
entities, alteration of communication, the alteration of the environment and
perceptions of either the environment or other entities.
Advanced Concepts of control:
Nested control:A pathway within a pathway. A simple example using the illusion pathway would be an
illusion within an illusion. Any pathways may be combined and the level of nesting is
essentially limitless.
Sequential control:
Utilizing one pathway or simply a suitable event for creation or accretion of another
pathway. This in turn may be used for another ad infinitum.
Hierarchical control:
Utilizing any pathway or form of control on others which in turn control others in an
hierarchical structure, ad infinitum.
Interdependent control:A situation where one entity is dependent on another or any number of entities, either
real or perceived/illusory, which may be controlled and/or allow for further/greater
control.
Compounding control:
Similar to sequential control, however the pathways used do not have to be in sequenceor with the same entity. A simple example of compounding control is control which is
automatically passed from a parent to their children.
All of these concepts may be combined.
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way
17/111
METHODOLOGY OF CONTROL
Ultimately the methods used to control are unlimited. Essentially any method must be pre-
thought in linear time and as such, creativity - being a fundamental aspect of thought - allows
any method to be used, as well as those methods to adapt, evolve and combine with other
methods. There is also the study of the individual(s) to be controlled to establish which
pathways or how the individual(s) may accept/reject an attempt to control and proceeding(re)actions. Thus attempting to control is essentially a learning process, just as is the seeking to
escape/avoid control. This alone is indicative of the importance of control/freedom with
respect to progress of an entity. It is also integral to teach/learning or helping.
With this in mind examples of possible and observed methods of control utilizing the previously
defined pathways are shown below.
Examples of control methodsSimple examples:
1. Aim: Create a sense or feeling of self doubt in an entity.
Chosen method: 1. Utilize or create a perceived difference in the physical
appearance of the entity to other entities. 2. Reinforce or amplifythe perception via alteration/distortion/limitation of the
understanding of the entity. This activity takes place by generator
feedback which alters the perception. (Concepts detailed further in
proceeding chapter)
3. Create or add the physical desire for the entity to alter its
physical appearance.
Pathways used: 1.Perception, Difference
1.Environment, Nested control either alteration or use of
existing differences in physical body. Alteration
could be the use of cosmetics for example.
2.Understanding, Direct
3.Physical, Desire
2. Aim: To create or amplify warlike thought forms in an entity.
Chosen method: 1. Create or use an existing sub-illusion which involves the entity
having a goal of generating peace by destroying an enemy. The
concept of peace being obtainable by violence is programmed,
likely by bypassing the entitys perception of such.
2. Amplify by repeating, via levels, and alternative sub-illusions
utilizing same goal/concept.
3. Apply the same situation or opportunity for such a situation in
the external environment.
4. Utilize chemical additives which the entity may ingest or come
in contact with which promote violent tendencies.
Pathways used: 1. Perception, Illusion
1. Perception, Inversion
1. Understanding, Direct
2. Understanding, Dilution excess specifically
3. Environment, Nested control A situation is either
present or previously generated which holds the opportunity for
further programming.
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way
18/111
4. Environment, Chemical
4. Physical, Direct body/mind complex
3. Aim: Create an emotional tie to a particular topic for future
manipulation
Chosen method 1. Create interlinked distorted understandings. In this case the
entity believes that another entity supporting a particular
viewpoint is barbaric or at least incorrect in their thinking, which
must be corrected.
Pathways used: 1. Understanding, Direct (interlinked)
Combining methods and pathways by integrated example with simultaneous analysis:
All Entities have a designation by a letter. Example >AA< is a middle aged man who lives with his family; >B< his wife and >C< his young boy. >AB< has a passion for
nature and does not see herself as religious in anyway and nor do others. >C< is young and
learning, he has not chosen any particular path but he is rebellious to both parents.
It is early morning.
Finish your breakfast commands >A< to his son >CC< to comply may not elicit any change in
>A< or action taken by >A< .But in this scenario which of course is unique to these individualsfor the purpose of example, we have the following: [Alteration of perception [A] and [D] by
>CA< being the environment with respect to >CC< may or
may not have taken place. If it is the first time such a thing was said to >C< or the way in
which it was said or any additional body language for example, there is alteration. If it or
similar has happened before but perhaps only once or twice, there is a compounding affect.
Note also adaptation to the perception of the situation may take place. In the mind of >CC< does as
ordered. 2. The command is accepted, but adaptation has either not taken place or is rejected.
3. The command is rejected, an adaptation may or may not take place at this time.
The triad outlined in the proceeding chapter may be recalled here: 1. Perception, 2. Awareness
and 3.Generator (thought). In the case of >ACC< may
dislike being told what to do, but his reasoning negates that and any ill effects are perceived to
be non-existent or negligible.
So control is not intended by >A< but is present without his awareness of its presence. It might
be seen to be working through him. Basically the pathways for such control to take place are
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way
19/111
the perception of >A< towards >CC< has heard similar commands previously, not for his breakfast, but for other things such as
washing his hands before eating. He is also aware of the language used it is not a question or a
suggestion, but a direct command to do something. Though he does not actively think of it, his
underlying understanding is that father or not, he has no right to order him what to do.
He is also aware or perceives the possibility of his father getting angry if he shows via body
language or verbally any refusal.
So for now he accepts the command, but there is change within his mind, even though there is in
this instance, none or negligible change in the mind of >AC< in this
scenario, he perceives the statement and the act of making the statement as a command as
something which is against him, which is brought about by his understanding of the
situation/event. Additionally his perception is changing with each time a similar event occurs
that is the command from his father in his case it is moving towards further rejection of the
command. Recall that control cannot be removed or eliminated by control. Alongside the
alteration in his perception, the understanding of >C< is being cemented or amplified if youlike, largely due to the fact it is not being challenged by his conscious mind that is most of the
output of the generator is from the unconscious portion of the mind in this case.
Now at the same time >C< carries a latent fear of possible anger from >AA< has used it previously in the life of >C< to control >C< - that is
to have him to do what >A< wanted him to do. ( There is more, which will be evident later in the
scenario) So there are two pathways for control which are crossing. The crossing of pathways
affords the possibility of both pathways being diminished or one pathway being diminished or
negated. In the case of >CC< and >B< (his mother). >BB< prepare her breakfast, although he has seen it before, >C< asks rhetorically: What
do you drink that stuff for?
In this scenario, it was not a simple question nor one without any intention behind it (aside fromregular curiosity and learning that is). The rhetoric is in the intention that is there is an
underlying intention to sway control by inference. Inference is listed as an advanced
pathway to control (see previously in the text). The question, including in this case the way it is
said, is inferring that drinking that stuff is unacceptable or unusual or a similar word with
the same prefix. This inference is derived from a common understanding of the tonal variations
on the words used in speech.
Begin with perceptions. Firstly both >C< and >B< have adapted to this form of communication
and have adopted the same understanding of the form of the communication. However, >B
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way
20/111
perceives it as hurtful to her in this case and when used on others as a possible attack on them.
>C< is aware of the concept of it being an avenue for attack on others, but in this case at least,
he does not perceive it as being as such and nor does he perceive the hurt felt by his mother.
In this case there is no direct intentions from either >B< or >CB< simply returns the
answer of Because its healthy.
Further Analysis: In the scenario thus far >C< played a part in two situations where pathways
for control were evident. The reader may observe the possibility of sequential control being
present, though not likely utilized directly. This takes the form of a temporary emotional change
in >CABAA< is at work. >A< works at a company which
employs approximately 30 people, of which >D< is one. In the morning, >A< observes >DD< requests help for a work task from
>AA< refuses to help, but does not offer any reason nor any
sign to >D< as to why he has refused.
Here, >A< is utilizing an awareness of the incident with >D< to effectively control >DA< regarding >DD< and the employee>D< was unkind to, it may also be a more complete picture on the nature/behavior of >DD< for example. 2. >A< is limiting
awareness and thus understanding of >D< by intentionally with-holding knowledge of why he is
refusing to help. This is related to pathways 4[D] and 5[A]. 3. Limitation is present in the
concept by which >A< is refusing help. In this case it is also inverted 2[B] from the
understanding of >DB< has some experiences which are worth
considering. In her home she reads a newspaper which advertises a charity event. This event
involves those taking part to purchase a wearable token, with the money from the purchase
advertised as going towards research for a cure for a disease. >B< decides she will take part.
Since there are numerous pathways, some possibly quite obvious to the reader at this point, only
a few have been selected for consideration. In particular, there is the absence of knowledge
pertaining to what actually happens to the money which is received from the charity event. In
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way
21/111
this scenario, part of the money is being used for research, however it will be research which
will be used to develop new pharmaceutical drugs to suppress symptoms of those with the
disease. Any new drugs which are developed in this case will likely incur a considerable fee to
those with the disease as well as multiple side affects. Aside from the lack of awareness of the
activities and intentions of those running the charity and the pharmaceutical and research
connections (and control) >B< has developed first a distorted concept that she is helping, of
which there may be seen to be minimal, whilst in reality she has helped to increase the control of
others indirectly. Pathways in use include 1[A], 1[B], 2[A], 2[B], 2[D], 3[B], 3[C], 4[C].
One more event in the day of >C< is the task of going to school.
It is not the concept of learning itself that acts as a pathway for control, but the structure and
content primarily that opens pathways.
Alteration of the perception and understanding, including all eight pathways listed are the most
recognizable ways control may take form. Since the school itself or more accurately those
running the school have no awareness of such pathways and/or have such an understanding that
acknowledgement would be denied, control is not from the school itself, but acts through the
school.
The reader may consider other possible pathways the schooling offers or examine in detail theways in which the perceptions and understandings are altered in the school, as well as the
perceptions, understanding and awareness the teachers and those running the school must have
in order for the pathways to be active. It may be worthwhile to explore what a school actually is
as well as its set-up as to the nature of the pathways which result.
With the analysis of all the preceding examples, the idea is not to get bogged down or
absorbed with the details and complexity. What the analysis provides and allows is a mapping
out of the way in which control and self servitude is facilitated firstly by the self, secondly
between individuals in small, local groups and thirdly on the larger scale between groups of
societies and a civilization. The mapping out of the details allows for a greater understanding
and awareness of the reality when analysis of such details has ceased and the larger picture isagain being focused on.
Later, >A< returns home where he communicates the event previously mentioned of not helping
>D< to his wife >BA< in communicating the event provides also a particular bias to the event. This is done
by a choice selection of portions of the story to tell as well as particular words which determine
the concepts used by >B< in interpreting the event. Perhaps a particular slant was used to
portray >D< in the story. Perhaps an aspect of the story was missing such as the seeming
unkindness of >A< refusing to help >D< as may be perceived by >DA< and/or those that are, are justified within his mind via theunderstandings he holds. So aside from actually occurred between >A< and >DBA< (such as an intonation or
emphasis) as well as (less readily considered) the omissions. For the most part all of this is not
considered consciously by >A
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way
22/111
conversation. Regardless, it is the underlying percept(s) and understanding(s) which are passed
to >BB< as to what degree those percept(s) and
understanding(s) are adopted if they are at all. Most importantly to note here is that the current
understandings, awareness and percepts of >B< will determine what will occur next. There is
possibility for protection from adoption of any distorted percepts or understandings, there is
possibility of unknowingly adopting the same or similar percepts or understandings as >AA< and >B
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way

This may also be programmed as progress toward a utopia. The monetary system also allows
for nested hierarchies to be set up based on the quantity of money and perceived or illusory
value of the tasks and items which gain money for an individual. Other factors determining the
positions for hierarchy may be perceptions of the body complex and education. These may be
dependent on money also.
The next step is to facilitate trading of resources using the monetary system between the groups.
This may also be done under the guise of progress. Meanwhile, the groups must still protect
their land from the other groups. It is both the progress and the protection from another group
which will continuously build greater infrastructure. Protection of course, may be more
effective in perceptions of fear of attack. All of this infrastructure creates an imbalance
between the group and their environment and eventually all the groups and their collective
environment. This is a pathway for future control. For now though, the infrastructure as well as
the societal interdependencies of the individuals is built up.
At this stage a basic system of control is in place due to a monetary system which builds
interdependencies, growth and utilization of power (exerted primarily through money). By this
stage, it is more controlling for the rulers if all land within a given group is owned by individuals
and the rulers of the group, or offering greater control, if all land is owned by the rulers of thegroup only. With sufficient interdependencies and control over basic resources including land,
the system becomes self propagating.
The final step is to introduce a common enemy to all the groups so that they will unite under one
leadership, at which point the original rulers, or those directly under them may be revealed to the
populous. One choice for the common enemy could be the environment, since the requirements
for resources and land area would likely have disrupted the environments balance. Again, it is a
situation of imbalance, brought about from control which will be stabilized, albeit temporarily,
via greater control.

Example of methods and pathways of controlling a planetary civilization by integrated
example with simultaneous analysis:
1. Create the perception/illusion of the need to control. This involves the concept of oneruling over another, for their protection, for their well being, to prevent conflict, to direct
the collective pathway. Utilize the parent/children relationship and the mankind/nature
relationship as methods for convincing a natural (perceived) hierarchy.
If outright ruling is not accepted, then partial ruling. Let the people have a say or play
their part in the decisions. Gradually reduce the part they play if allowed and/or
introduce the illusion that they are playing their part/having their say. Create false
hands or voices, create individuals or groups which speak for the people. Create two or
more opposing sides which whilst opposing each other or at least appearing to do so,
promote or continue the planned agenda.
The conceptual understanding once held allows the percept to remain. Protection for
example may be extended to the acceptability of removing the freedom of another
individual in order to (seemingly) maintain said protection. The concept of freedom,
with the addition of security and protection (both distorted) is inverted to actually
produce control. The individual(s) of course believe they are somehow working towardsfreedom. If it is their concept of freedom then indeed they are their concept having a
basis in control. All of the pathways via understanding are utilized, perhaps with the
exception of dilution, which then allows all the pathways via perception. It may be noted
that the pathways active via alteration of perception consequentially allow for further
alteration or distortion of understanding. The use of power, the illusion of power,
opposition, progress and the like are all straight forward ways in which to control or
build control. In a society, those that have the least awareness and knowledge and whom
are the most easily altered/changed to the controllers will are the first to be recruited so
that numbers may be utilized as (apparent) power.
2. Keep the population pre-occupied. Create the perception that a) all is well b) even if it isnot others are taking care of it c) the population are not qualified/intelligent enough,informed enough to help or change anything. Work and recreational activities to
consume as much time as possible. These are also encouraged, in particular
entertainment, pleasure/leisure. When a), b) and c) fail or change due to the
environment altering perceptions of the population i.e. they begin to perceive things as
progressively getting worse, create new perceptions thusly: d) all is unfixable, or all is
lost. e) even if it is others are taking care of it or nothing I the individual can do f)
things may be corrected but none, or none in power at least are intelligent or
knowledgeable enough to turn things around. The resultant (promoted) activities will be:
a) apathy b) protestation c) rebellion d) demand.
Focus of attention. The percept (Illusion/delusion) that all is (relatively) ok, all that canbe done is being done (by others primarily), the daily news informs of all that is of
importance. The percept coupled with the patterns of content of thought are the primary
ways in which control is facilitated here. An individual does not perceive the calling for
any change primarily internally starting with thought. With this in place others who
make decisions may implement further measures to control, additionally attempts to
help or improve things may be ensure - for the greater picture at least - to maintain
the status quo.

3. Work will become due to interdependence primarily. To survive, including to liveanywhere will require ownership of land and the purchasing of products to build shelter,
plant food etc at the very minimal. All of these require money, in particular a
considerable amount for land which is owned by those that govern, even if it is
wilderness. Primary producers, that is those that either provide food or shelter for the
people will become less of a portion of the population as other superficial needs are
created within society as it gains complexity. These include insurance and law firms,
taxation and bureaucratic firms, communication companies, entertainment and sports and
many more. These aside from their perceived purposes have an additional purpose in
their being, that is to reduce the portion of population that serves in the primary needs of
the population, which creates a greater interdependency within the population.
The primary occupations for the people are:
Food production (and distribution)
Shelter creation
Education (teaching of primary information)
Healing
Note these only include the primary aspect of each for example:
-Food production is only those that actually grow the foods (and collect/catch for fish for
example) and secondary to those are those that actually give the food to others if required
i.e. for those that perform another task and do not grow their own or those incapable of
growing/getting their own (old, children for example)
-Shelter creation is only those that provide structural shelter not beyond requirements for
acceptable survival. Additional materials or excessive structures are all accessory and
are thus not primary and not included here.
-Education (Teachers) are only those that offer teaching to those subjects of true value to
the individual. Preaching or indoctrination is not included here. Subjects of true value
begin with philosophy, well being, food, awareness, survival/health, moving to
mathematics, sciences with lesser value. It is the subjects of true value which need befirst priority and upheld with any other subjects being built upon the foundation of the
primary ones.
-Healing is actually an auxiliary occupation. If the first 3 occupations are all to a
standard high enough, healing will take place by the individual, at least the majority of
the time. The other times a healer may be required. Their education and resources will
all be available to any individual at any time however. Instead of an individual who is
seen when one feels one needs help, the healer may be an individual who observes others
(including through communication) and where imbalance is to be seen offers help. This
is a different approach then the repair (band-aid) approach. The pathway for control in
such methodology is if the healer becomes police-like.
It is the interdependency and the hierarchy (advanced concepts of control) whichensure slavery of an individual. Only by returning to independence and as much as
possible a removal or non-participation with the societal structure may an individual
relinquish this control. However, even if this is done, with respect to the planet the
structured society still influences (and potentially controls) the individual(s) by
affecting/altering the environment, including any individuals who maintain
contact/communication with those who have segregated themselves.

4. Awareness will be satisfied by news. This will be controlled and filtered as much aspossible whilst still retaining the illusion that it is both relatively or satisfactorily
complete in content as well as factual/accurate. Danger and disaster, the negatives will be
highlighted. Followed by sport and entertainment which will become the news also.
Weather will also perform the task for the individual so that they no longer need to
observe for themselves that either. Utilize technology to bring the news, maximize
exposure and promote the need/requirement (illusory) that the people must watch/read
the news.
Illusion/delusion. Fabrication of percepts. Regulation of thought patterns. Promotion of
apathy, conformity, normalcy, docility. Limitation of thought capacity.
5. Have justice, a term understood in itself by the people as the mechanism which isdemanded by the people to enhance control over the population. It will also be used as
revenge, with some help from warlike characteristics which are also promoted by
entertainment.
Utilization of a distorted concept of freedom/control with a fabricated necessity for
punishment/revenge. All of these concepts may be derived from a distorted
concept/understanding of division and perception of the same. Thus the control or
attempt to control is justified with an ignorance or choice not to seek an alternative
conceptual understanding or learning from each situation.
6. Social conditioning will come largely from mass communication that is largely fromtelevision shows. These will then flow into public activity which will in turn generate
further social trends along the same paths. The norm and socially acceptable behavior
will serve as methods of control.
Norms, etiquettes, codes and requirements, including those that are openly stated, those
known yet not usually spoken of and those unconscious will serve aside from providing a
degree of helpfulness in terms of peacefulness within the society will also serve as means
to control, leading to segregation, isolation, class creation, hierarchy and division.
Physical means, communication and perception are primarily used here. By physical, an
example of a difference in physical appearance or a physical characteristic may be used.
Whilst the difference may be physical however, it is still the perception of that difference
which begins the process. Communication as one example would be individuals choosing
to communicate in a particular manner to those they deem to be of their class.
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way
27/111
7. Progress for increasing control is done at a pace which is accepted by the population. Ingradual stages control is ramped up primarily to evade the awareness of the majority.
The two main requirements to ensure adoption of any new measure to control are a
sufficient level of receptibility by preceding measures of control having been
implemented and lack of memory of past events and experiences. Most effective to
diminish memory is perhaps using the tide of time with generations of the population. A
new generation if it has not been taught or shown the happenings of the previous
generation(s) and in addition if repositories of knowledge of the past are lost, inaccurate
or distorted is more easily imprinted with the latest measures to control, the guise of
progress being considerably effective. The limitation of perception and thus awareness is
the primary pathway to control here. The perception has adapted this may be
unknowingly/ unconsciously for an individual, especially if there is nothing to compare
to previously no memory or knowledge of previous states. In addition the environment
has changed which may lead to further changes in the individual, such as further
alteration to percepts. The concepts of sequential and compounding control are also
present here.
8. The hierarchical structure provides imbalance. Those towards the top take or demandmore from those below them. The resources used to provide for others is taken from the
environment. Thus the pyramid/hierarchy is imbalanced with respect to the
environment. This is another area in which control may be justified. At the point
where the imbalance begins impeding directly on the individuals in the society to a
degree which concerns the individuals, the level of control may be increased to degrees
which would previously have been unacceptable.
Here, control may be utilized further to dominate the population. The level of control at
this point may be sufficient to have the population begin either determining more directlytheir own fate or the fate of others, within the select choices of those governing. In
others words to restore some degree of balance, actual or illusory, the population or
individuals within the population may be forced or convinced to make (further) sacrifices
including at the extreme end of their life.
All the ways in which control has been facilitated has led to this level of control.
9. With the instinct for survival, the percept and understanding of division/separation andadditional programmed/adopted percepts and understandings of blame, punishment,
revenge, justice, right, wrong, good, evil, fairness, equality, peace and morality to
name perhaps current main concepts the population will, provided a basic level ofawareness may be reached and maintained, most likely rebel against the situation.
The final illusion is that the civilization could never and was never intended to do as
what was thought by the population, including those that governed thought and even
expected it to do. The civilization was created to teach the population, including those
that governed through the implementation of control to the individual and the collective,
the ways in which they may minimize or relinquish control by either ascending the
ranks of the controllers or learning true freedom.
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way
28/111
FURTHER CONSIDERATIONS OF CONTROL
Dependence as an aspect of control may also use time for the generation of dependence or at
leastperceiveddependence, including by inference. An example is using the future to determine
a course of thought or being. There are of course situations where control is not present, the
situation logically calls for particular action. An example is working with extraordinary vigor in
order to re-establish a food supply due to unforeseen circumstances disrupting supply, such as
alternate weather conditions. There is not likely control in the previous situation based on the
information given. In another situation however, individuals may have beenprogrammedin that
they work with extraordinary effort or perform activities which would normally not have been
performed, based on the programmed understanding that these activities and excesses are
required of them. The programmed understanding in this case is that the individuals involved
mustor are requiredto work how they dofor the future. Note it is not the activities or excesses
in themselves. It is possible that these may well be justified if the circumstances do indeed call
for it and that is the option consciously and freely chosen by all involved. It is the programmed
concept which utilizes future time and dependency (even if only perceived) as a pathway for
control.
Similarly, via the use of perception, the very concept of control may be justified by the self
serving entity. This perception is then transferred to another normally by convincing. The
reader may note the same word root convince and control. A simple example of this is another
entity who has done something which has hurt another or caused damage/destruction. The
perception of this entity arises from the facts of the matter the hurt (which includes perceptions
and subjectivity) or damage which then either forms or reinforces the understanding for the
necessity for control. This of course is an incomplete/distorted understanding which paves the
way for imbalance. If what has been stated proceeds as is, the distorted understanding may only
lead to greater and greater means to control, furthering imbalance and if applicable, collapse.
The role of perceptions will be considered in depth in a following chapter, along with social
dynamics of imbalance/balance. An understanding of control would be incomplete without an
understanding of freedom, so that is the discussion to follow.
The occupation of time is a possible means to control. This runs alongside the attention or focus
of an individual. It is quite possible (in linear time) to occupy an individuals attention/focus on
any one thing, creating essentially limitation in that the individual does not look up to see other
happenings. Essentially this is limitation of awareness (awareness discussed later) although the
pathways of perception and understanding may be used to map any active control. The
occupation of an individuals focus works with keeping an individual busy (occupying their
time) on tasks which do anything but allow them to make progress which would help them or
hinder the controller. Likewise, repeating patterns may do the same thing with a number of
things which occupy an individuals attention. It may be noted that all experience may be
learnt from, so the absence of meaningful progress or the occupation of an individuals focus
does not necessarily mean an individual may not see the situation or patterns in retrospect. Thepatterns, being cyclical themselves would tend to work within a cycle. For example an
individual spends the majority of their time focused on thought and activity which is related to
several things. There may be some variation, however in this example, each day (cycle) focus is
maintained upon things related to those several things. Over a larger cycle (years for example)
those several things may be replaced with a new set of several things.
Association, which is largely perceptive, is another pathway to control worthy of consideration.
This example, which is basically the acceptance, consideration, or determination of one thing
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way
29/111
based on another, utilizes perception and understanding. The pathways listed are still
applicable, the example shows how expansive perception and understanding are in an individual
with respect to attempts to control. Perception and understanding will be considered later in the
text. The point here is there is much more than the basic words listed in the pathways to control.
It is a matter for the reader to consider and observe carefully, remaining as open as possible to
any number of ways, rather than trying to fit what has been listed onto a given situation.
Basic ways to control, if considered sufficiently may be seen to originate from pathways listed.
These include straight forward ways - often with fear as an emotional component such as
absence/removal of food/water for survival, removal/disconnection/harm to those an individual
feels connected to such as loved ones and fear of harm to the individual themself or death. Fear
and dependency are main aspects in these. Fear is usually of the unknown or simply of pain.
Dependency is always available for leverage for those seeking to control. Fear of loss in some
way is usually present. Thoughts and feelings, including fear is derived from any or all aspects
of the triad of perception, awareness and knowledge/understanding. This will be looked at in the
next chapter.
Since the discussion will be focused more upon the mind in the next chapter rather than theconceptual understanding here, programming, conditioning and the like will be explored in the
proceeding chapter also.
The pathways listed previously are not so concrete. There is some adaptability as well as
potential for limitless combinations. In addition not all situations are due to control, or not all
from external entities. Control also may be generated by the self. Essentially though, as
previously stated, the self is the gateway. This means regardless of whence the control or
attempt to control originates, provided the self is capable in body/mind/spirit, the choice, the
potential, the ability to relinquish (or destroy, although a negative approach) rests with the self.
As will be discussed later in the text, the means to determine attempts to control or activecontrol are observation, consideration, analysis and intuition.
Overall, the concept of Illusion followed by the concept of limitation principally open pathways
to control. It could be said that illusion is a form of limitation itself whilst any limitation, with
respect to an infinite universe is an illusion itself.
It may also be helpful to the reader to differentiate between a conceptual understanding of
control/freedom, possible/probable actuated control and actuated control. Only to the degree the
knowledge and concept is grasped may limitation and hindrance be removed.
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way
30/111
FREEDOM
Freedom is the absence of control. It is also the resultant of those that tend towards balance. An
entity that is balanced or approaches balance will tend to share with others and help others where
possible, suitable and/or asked for*. An entity that is balanced will tend to have no need to
control themself or others, nor any desire to do so. This may seem paradoxical in the sense that
an entity must exert control over themselves in a situation where they may potentially controlanother (example of physical or psychical hurt). This is not the case and the understanding is
conceived from an unbalanced or self serving understanding. Whilst it is still possible for hurt
to occur no pathway for control is accessed or used by a balanced entity. Control may occur
only by the self upon the self of the other entity only if it is insufficiently balanced.
An entity approaching balance is one with less and less need to control themselves, just as they
have no need to control others. The seeming paradox to the reader may be that in order to
progress along this path one must make effort, one must control and discipline themselves to not
control themselves and/or others. Recall that one cannot control control. This is simple control
nested within control. Now to let go or relinquish as a deliberate attempt by an entity to ridthemself or others of control is also an effort. Balance, and the resultant freedom cannot be
caught, they cannot be grasped. One cannot truly hold onto that which is free. Hence freedom
is a state of being, that is, for lack of a better word, discovered. One may choose their path and
one may envision their destination, but one will arrive when they arrive, no sooner, no later and
hence it is either of no value or counter-productive to anticipate or expect.
Those that serve themselves as noted previously build the walls that imprison. Conversely those
that serve others remove the walls that imprison or show the walls of the prison to those willing
to see. It is hindrance versus helpfulness.
Freedom is a place one may always return to.
It may be noted that the concept of freedom may also be used to control. Note it is the concept
only, for as stated previously true freedom cannot be controlled. An illusion of freedom, a falsity
of freedom and necessities for apparent freedom are examples of control under the guise of
freedom. An example of an illusion of freedom is the use of laws or restrictions with the
promotion of freedom being present. An example of falsity of freedom might be the same in the
mind of the individual or an escaped prisoner believing they are free when in actuality they have
escaped from one prison to enter another as yet unrecognized. An example of a created
necessity (an illusion) for apparent freedom would be security. To maintain freedom, security
must be maintained. In truth, security is the freedom itself. The only necessity to obtain
freedom (a misnomer) is to remove all forms of control. Freedom between entities and between
groups of entities results when both entities/groups are free from control.
It may be seen at this point that one cannot instill freedom in another for this is control. This is
quite impossible in terms of freedom. With a pointed finger a pathway may be shown to another
entity, however it is the entity who must choose the path if they wish.
*Technicality:
1. The serving of others may technically be an imbalanced entity which mayprovide balance.
2. We may say that a balanced entity whom also provides balance is one who knows freedom.
3. Those that sufficiently serve themselves may potentially be in balance in themselves, butpromote/provide
imbalance.
8/14/2019 A Wanderer's Way
31/111
A society largely in balance will tend to have immunity against imbalance. By virtue of being
balanced, an entity finding themselves out of balance, for example with an excess of one thing or
another, would tend to restore balance that is shed or give the excess or ask or seek out in the
case of deficiency. This stability along with others of the same caliber is that which maintains
balance and provides immunity against imbalance. This is both imbalance of individuals, the
group and the environment of the group.
Freedom, by example has the potential to indicate to others the merits of such path. The lesson
may be learnt, at least in part, from observation which in addition may be compared to an
observation of control for example. Thus a balanced entity tends to provide catalyst for
progression towards balance.
Elements of balance and thus freedom are:
Acceptance, forgiveness and relinquishment.
They are the opposite for the elements of imbalance:
Control, resentment and restraint/constraint.

PATHWAYS FOR FREEDOM:
Freedom is the state of being which results when all pathways for control are first identified then
relinquished. Freedom for a group of entities only results when all members have identified and
relinquished all pathways for control. Naturally in contrast to control, the greater the portion of
the number of pathways to control that are relinquished, the greater the ease with which the
remainder of the pathways may be relinquished. Likewise in a group of entities, the greater theportion of members of the group that approach balance, the greater the probability that the
minority members will follow towards balance.
Defined pathways:
1. Alteration of perceptionThis pathway of control is aimed at creating and/or distorting an entitys view of
their perceived reality and/or perception of any given concept or topic. An entity
approaching balance will tend towards perception with utmost clarity.
[A] Adaptation
Control may take the form of having an entity adapt without question orcomplacently accept their current state of being and/or future states of
being. The states are possibly more likely to be negative that is the
conditions or state of the entity being controlled or their environment is
progressively getting worse however they may also be positive. In this
latter case Illusion or falsity (false gifts) may also be active.
An entity approaching balance will tend to choose to adapt where the
adaptation may promote balance or will reject adaptation if the
adaptation will promote imbalance.
[B] IllusionIllusions as a pathway for control can be seen to be more than alteration
of perception. But in terms of perception, there is the alteration of the
environment, alteration of another entity (including the one intending to
control) and there is the creation of a sub illusion (or sub reality, fictional
story etc) which may then alter the controlled entitys perception of either
themself, their environment including others entities.Illusions will most likely be identified and understood and if possible
avoided/relinquished, otherwise accepted where required/necessary.
[C] FalsityThis pathway of control could have been grouped with illusion. It may be
seen to be illusion by inference that is the illusion is essentially self
generated by the one being controlled. This pathway approaches non-existence as an entity approaches balance due to clarity in understanding
and perception.
[D] DifferenceThis pathway of control seems to take the form of a dividing line. A
difference or division is perceived and thus allows for any number of
distortions to be implemented or allowed to flourish. Ultimately this form
of control is through limitation. This pathway is relinquished as an entity
perceives no true difference and understands illusory differences.

2. Alteration of understandingThis pathway of control is aimed at distorting current knowledge/understanding
of the controlled entity, including the addition of distorted/incorrect/meaningless
knowledge for purposes of confusion or dilution, or subtraction of knowledge
which may aid the entity or be perceived to be a potential aid by the one
attempting to control. The opposite which potentially frees an entity is the
gathering of knowledge as well as the discernment, analysis and understandingof knowledge gathered such that the understanding of the entity is as complete,
balanced and free from distortion as the entity is capable of.
[A] DirectA direct alteration or distortion of a current understanding, including
removal. This includes all forms of programming.Discernment coupled
with current knowledge forms a shield against this pathway for control in
an entity approaching balance.
[B] Inversion
The intention with this pathway is to take the current knowledge andconvert its meaning to the opposite of what it was previously. Confusion
may be the intended outcome.Discernment coupled with current
knowledge forms a shield against this pathway for control in an entity
approaching balance.
[C] Dilution
This pathway intends to muddy the pool with information which may
contain elements of truth/helpfulness/usefulness but usually contains a
majority of the opposite elements. The more that is added, the more
diluted the pool of information becomes. The information may be that
which is being received by the entity, that which is being sent or that
which is stored (memory). Disinformation falls under this method aswell as bombardment or excess information inflow. Knowledge forms a
shield against this pathway for control in an entity approaching balance.
[D] LimitationAny barrier set up to prevent or hinder expanding upon a current
understanding or as yet unknown/undiscovered piece of knowledge.
Limitation of awareness is included here as well as limitation of attention.
An entity approaching balance gains the ability to perceive such
limitations, either internal or external and may then relinquish such
limitations.

3. Alteration of the physical entityControl in this form is aimed at altering or limiting in some way the physical
body. In particular the functioning of the physical body which directly
inhibits/alters the mind or the capability of the entity to utilize its mind.
[A] Physical needs/desires
These include such as food intake, exercise, intimacy but may also beadditional or become excessive or addictive. It also includes physical
aspects which may be accessory or not required for survival. Of those
which may be changed, an entity approaching balance will tend to opt for
those choices which promote balance and well-being.
[B] Direct (Body complex)
This is straight alteration of the physical body. Knowledge and awareness
of a balanced entity will shield against changes where possible.
[C] Direct (Body/mind complex)
This is alteration of any portion of the body which affects directly the
functioning of the mind of the entity.Knowledge and awareness of a balanced entity will shield against
changes where possible.

4. Alteration of an entitys environmentThe environment may be seen to include the entity or entities attempting to
control if necessary. In this way the control of the entity to be controlled stems
from controlling that which is around the entity to be controlled. Thus all the
methods outlined for controlling an entity may be applied to the environment,
with some obvious exceptions depending on what the environment consists of.
An entity approaching balance will tend to be aware of the alterations and thepossible affects of such. This awareness and knowledge allows the entity to
bend with the wind or accept the changes to the degree suitable.
[A] TimeThis form of control is an option, however see alteration of perception of
time and alteration of the physical with respect to lifespan and
functionality.
[B] Space
Alteration of the physical space in which the entity dwells, resides or
visits.
[C] Physical/chemical environment.Alteration of all other aspects of an entitys environment if the
environment is being defined as that which does not have the
controllability of another entity or equivalent.
[D] Connection(s)This involves the alteration or limitation of an entitys connection or
dependence on any part of its environment, including other entities. It
also involves the creation of systemized ties/dependencies.
[X] Nested control (see advanced concepts for additional information)
5. Alteration of communicationWhilst perception is defined here as that which an entity interprets of its external
environment including other entities, communication is any available means to
transfer/receive information from the environment or other entities, excluding the
information received via perception. An entity approaching balance will tend to
have an awareness at least of the characteristics and limitations of the modes of
communication and as such will tend to ensure as clear and open a form of
communication as possible.
[A] DirectThis pathway is aimed at altering how communication takes place,
eliminating or limiting it either one way or both ways (input and output)
[B] MediumThis may be alteration or limitation of language or the form of
communication.

PROGRESS TOWARDS FREEDOM
Unlike control there is no method to freedom. This may seem incorrect at first glance. If it
does, it is likely the reader still utilized the concept of control as a means to freedom. Granted,
in a heavily controlled society, individuals may not be able to comprehend this and/or may
refute it outright. The book may be abandoned and categorized as nonsense or false. Both
options are acceptable in this example being described. There is that which does not make senseto any individual, that which does not make sense universally and that which simply does not
make sense to the individual in question since they do not understand at that point in time. That
which is deemed false may indeed be false or it may oppositely be true, yet perceived as false.
Now all these points contain pathways to control. The reader may see the first hurdle. Control,
where already present may be seen to have the upper hand. An individual heavily controlled,
by themself or others or both, might be seen to be unable to begin, unable to progress towards
freedom. It might be seen they may chase an illusive concept of freedom or seek progress, yet
they either run in circles or take one step forward for every two steps backward. An individual
always has the opportunity to begin and may always return to freedom. Freedom cannot be
contained, not even by time, it will wait forever for any individual to return when the individual
chooses to do so. There are no short-cuts to freedom. There is efficiency, that is a maximization
of progress with respect to perceived linear time, however attempting to skip ahead or cheat willresult in repeating the lessons. With this in mind, it is suggested, in view of a balanced
approach to take ones time, have patience, yet strive without effort or strain. If you let it, time
will become your friend rather than your foe.
Now, to return to the beginning statement. The english language does not seem to have an
antonym to the word method. Perhaps there can be none. Probably the next logical question the
reader may ask is; If control is to be relinquished for freedom to result, how do I relinquish
control?. This may be the first puzzle to the reader, perhaps stemming from the meaning of
words more than anything else. If a set course was laid out before the reader or a student on the
following page or a lecture was given, the same to the reader/student as to any other person, it is
open to, and would likely, with any (additional) workings of other individuals seeking to control,
result in failure to some degree.Interestingly, this helping or attempting to help is still a success in its offering and is also
successful in an inverted sense in that it provides opportunity for those that seek to control.
However, it is possible to still serve those who seek to control, without offering any opportunity
for them to get what they seek. A final solution for freedom is as impossible as a final solution
for control. The reason for this, if the reader does not understand the previous statement will be
considered later in the text.
A true pathway to relinquishing control has as a fundamental requirement to remain open. This
concept has as its meaning being used, an unset path, one with the property of selective
changeability.

I (Self)
An entity will learn by choice or by necessity. That which is not learnt now, may be repeated
later. The form may change, the lesson remains the same. We will begin with the conscious
choosing to learn, or for this discussion the conscious choosing to learn about and thus progress
with oneself.
The concept of progressing oneself at first glance offers two paths. The first is a seeminglyrandom, haphazard approach where experience is simply tallied up and considered after the
experience or collective experiences. The second approach is one with a preset plan, that is a
formula which is intended to give set results to those who apply it as intended. Both paths may
also be adopted together, either in part or full. Both paths may be seen to have merits, but both
paths may be seen to have limits. For the limits, examples include an inability or high degree of
difficulty in substantiating progress for the first path, conformity and inflexibility for the second
path. The commonality to both paths is that they seek both awareness and knowledge which
will inherently lead to being. So to begin with, what is required is an investigation into the way
to knowledge or epistemology.
Knowledge is infinite. Knowledge is both ever present and ever available. There is nothingwhich cannot be known, yet simultaneously there is always something new to know, since
knowledge is infinite. The ways to knowledge are o
