Woo; Deconstruction; Breaking the Upaya 

So I've written an introductory post to my blog, describing thoughts after one month in Seattle's woo-oriented crowd.

Content warning; in this, I do the initial steps of establishing a conception of baseline reality based in philosophical materialism, atheism, skepticism, and empiricism. I deny things you may believe in.

I am wind, second most dangerous element. I deconstruct everything.

Woo; Deconstruction; Breaking the Upaya 

The purpose of this is to lay down sort of a foundational description, in the sense of 'This is what I am seeking to get out of this practice.' Frequently this is a set of tools for self-reflection, the ability to suspend skepticism to engage in a subjective experience, the communal making of meaning.

The Work begins by figuring out where baseline reality IS, because in order to bend the rules, you need to know they're THERE.
