"You take yourself too seriously, " he said slowly. "You are too damn important in your own mind. That must be changed! You are so goddamn important … - Carlos Castañeda

Вещи, которые делают люди, ни при каких условиях не могут быть более важными, чем мир. И, таким образом, воин относится к миру как к бесконечной тайне, а к тому, что делают люди, — как к бесконечной глупости.

A warrior knows that he is only a man. His only regret is that his life is so short that he can't grab onto all the things that he would like to. But for him, this is not an issue; it's only a pity. Feeling important makes one heavy, clumsy and vain. To be a warrior one needs to be light and fluid.

The compulsion to possess and hold on to things is not unique. Everyone who wants to follow the warrior's path has to rid himself of this fixation in order not to focus our dreaming body on the weak face of the second attention.
