Correct, one needs to be awarw, but not concerned with anything except the self.
I compare it to hitting a target. All factors but the target are just things to react as needed to hit the target, but they don’t need to be focused on.
Right, what’s important is that the goal is kept in focus, not any particular way to get to the goal. I don’t understand why you said it in such a weird way the first time :S.
Because I was (a) rambling, and (b) trying more to articulate the inverse of that.
The word I’m looking for is a classification, like transtheism, but this is a trans- of more than just theism, so I was trying (poorly) to describe the “everything else” as that is what is being “trans-” classified.
The reason why, as I can imagine such an ambition to label by the inverse of the focus seems curious, is because the only thing that is practiced is malleability. So more than being defined by what is consistent, or the focus, the over all practice is largely defined by what is not the focus, and how to move with, along, and around that while staying on “target”.
Hence, regard only disregard (learn how to disregard everything [including focusing on the self]) and then disregard even regarding the “disregard”.
In short…like “walking zen”, but extrapolated into just being in everyday life, and allowing for all emotional ranges and instability without condemnation of any of them, as they are not the focus.
Just as the Buddhist’s don’t have to condemn theism because it’s simply impertinent to their focus, I am asserting no requirement to condemn anything about life at all as a human as it is impertinent to finding your nature.
Does the word make sense now?
Transpertinent: aside, or beyond the matter of what does or does not pertain
