&.&..&.&.& you can tap into the cave wherever you &.&.&.&.&.
&.&.&&.&.& go. with training, or with drugs... &.&.&.&.&.
&.&..&.&.& some people are always like this. &.&.&.&.&.
&.&.&&.&.& &.&.&.&.&.
&.&..&.&.& the cave is built in, an intrinsic &.&.&.&.&.
&.&.&&.&.& animal part. it's come to be associated &.&.&.&.&.
&.&..&.&.& with the lizards, and it's true that &.&.&.&.&.
&.&.&&.&.& they are very close to it in their &.&.&.&.&.
&.&..&.&.& lives. but as long as youre an animal, &.&.&.&.&.
&.&.&&.&.& it's always there, changing shape with &.&.&.&.&.

&.&.&&.&.& there are no generalizations. there is &.&.&.&.&.
&.&..&.&.& no object permanence. what you &.&.&.&.&.
&.&.&&.&.& experience is acute, ineffable, and you &.&.&.&.&.
&.&..&.&.& need to act. every subsection of your &.&.&.&.&.
&.&.&&.&.& body has a consciousness and a voice. &.&.&.&.&.
&.&..&.&.& everything you see can also see you, &.&.&.&.&.
&.&.&&.&.& through the pupil in your eye. the &.&.&.&.&.
&.&..&.&.& stones are slippery. the air is inside &.&.&.&.&.
