On TV's Buffy the Vampire Slayer, when Faith was asked how she was doing, she would often reply "Five by five". Thanks to Wikipedia, I was able to figure out where that phrase originated and what it meant . By what about five in the context of Mau's Manifesto?
5. Go deep.
The deeper you go the more likely you will discover something of value.
Absolutely. The way to go deeper is to be fully present with what is happening in this moment, letting go of time, of past regrets and future anxieties. Then can you begin to merge with the exploration, eroding the boundary between you and the world you are pondering. As Eckhart Tolle put it, "True intelligence operates silently. Stillness is where creativity and solutions to problems are found."
