I thought there should be a thread for this here, in the gen discussion., anyway

on this point of the manifesto:
9. NO SEEKING:
Burning Man is not in the business of providing existential solace, dogmas of meaning, total life answers, or dusty desert ashrams for your spiritual quest. Trying to fill the event with agendas of earnest seeking nearly always makes the whole thing feel sticky and annoyingly self-important. We prefer for it to remain empty and mean nothing. Or if you must: you can consider the meaning of Burning Man to be the unknown and indirect effect of interesting action and experience. There is no dogma- only the "dogma" you make through your own doing.

I've always figured that BM is like Solaris....stuff comes up from your psyche, or you can make it whatever you want. Let be birthed that which wants to emerge without denying anything to anyone (crime excluded of course)...that way the thing stays metaphysically big. Generally, otherwise, I support what these folks are doing

I mean no offense, CBA... cause I like you 'n stuff... but I have two issues with this thread being here.

1: the GD area is for all things outside of BM
2: the GD area is, generally, where I go to stay OUT of conversations like the borg2 shit...

just my $.02, really... gut reaction...

oh ok.....I thought we could get philosophical about it here rather than practical

like I said, just my gut reaction... it just sparks so much anger and whathaveyou.. frustrations....
