along the way, on his journey, he will have missed them because leaving them did not remove the attachment to them.

after "his" insight experience "he" knew "he" did "the right thing".

for me the puzzle is coming together as well. language is "the prison" and

all we can perceive of the world are concepts that we indirectly perceive via

language.

this is why one can philosphy for lifetimes and will never be completely free.

language is the last barrier to be overcome, if *the self*(?!) dies, language dies

and the prison door swings open.

if anybody says "i got it" he just jumped right back into it...
