"ruthless self-examination" could be considered a means to see clearly. This is sometimes called the path of attention and a very steep climb. Its value may be the direct engagement of those obstacles, addictions, affectations etc that clog the processes of cognition. Maybe, a person that completely lets go on the path of effortlessness and transcends all mental machinations truly attends to what is. Maybe is the key word. Attention with strain is just another binding mental influence. Expending effort to be effortless is simply absurd. ------------------------ Yahoo!
