  • Do you complain often of “feeling bad,” and if so, what is the cause? NO. (Sometimes I feel tired.)
  • Do you find fault with other people at the slightest provocation? NO. (I’m quite hypocritical and usually hide away what seems to me oposition to misbehaviours.)
  • Do you frequently make mistakes in your work, and if so, why? YES. It’s an intelligent way to take stress away from people. (Sask would be horrified, this maniac of perfection.)
  • Are you sarcastic and offensive in your conversation? NO. Deeply ironic, yes.
  • Do you deliberately avoid the association of anyone, and if so, why? YES. I avoid many possible word associations, because you never know.
  • Do you suffer frequently with indigestion? If so, what is the cause? NO.
  • Does life seem futile and the future hopeless to you? NO: On the contrary. Life is plenty and full of possible futures. Even more so as I’m deeply in love with a satelite.
  • Do you like your occupation? If not, why? YES. But I would like to change my job, to have more quizz to solve a day, and be payed for, as I solve them anyhow.
  • Do you often feel self-pity, and if so, why? Certainly, NOT. I hate self pity.
  • Are you envious of those who excel you? There are little and I prefer not to look at them as it would become of comparative ridiculous for them. Say I don’t know how to play golf and you have to recognize someone excells you, while you … play so well pinball?
  • To which do you devote most time, thinking of success, or of failure? To both in equal terms. Actually I don’t think there is failure, just a problem to solve, and the very disposition is already a success.
  • Are you gaining or losing self-confidence as you grow older? Actually gaining. I was a little lost in translation before, which is to say, giving in to others need not to feel destroyed in their egotism because others are infinitely better. Today I don’t care anymore. Shall they.
  • Do you learn something of value from all mistakes? There are mistakes that are of no value. They’re just there, for the pleasure …
  • Are you permitting some relative or acquaintance to worry you? If so, why? NO.
  • Are you sometimes “in the clouds” and at other times in the depth of despondency? I’m always in deep thought. It is true that it may reach the clouds but I don’t loose awareness. I don’t know what despondency is.
  • Who has the most inspiring influence upon you? What is the cause? People’s pychic characters. I tend to search in memory the possible answer to a question through some one who may possibly have a deeper insight in these matters without though excessively boasting themselves, which destroys the perception of the problem. Such my mother, Sask, Natasha, Tchin Li, Nicolas, Lassègue, my grandmother, and others, or spirits coming out of books, like Lorca or Solovjev, or Homer, or other.
  • Do you tolerate negative or discouraging influences which you can avoid? NO, I prefer to keep careful distances.
  • Are you careless of your personal appearance? If so, when and why? Quite. I didn’t see who I should have to please. And thus prefered to feel easy.
  • Have you learned how to “drown your troubles” by being too busy to be annoyed by them? There is no way of drowning troubles. What you forget through work will come up later when you get drunk …anyhow. And I don’t like drinking.
  • Would you cal yourself a “spineless weakling” if you permitted others to do your thinking for you? NO, if I understand the question well. If they do what I think, it is of strength. If I do what they think, than yes, I’m a ’spineless weakling’, if I do not first consider the reason.
  • Do you neglect internal bathing until auto-intoxication makes you ill-tempered and irritable? NO.
  • How many preventable disturbances annoy you, and why do you tolerate them? Preventable, none. Aleatory, many, but this is because I had to solve the question of regularity in aleatory movements.
  • Do you resort to liquor, narcotics, or cigarettes to “quiet your nerves?” If so, why do you not try will-power instead? THis is a perverted question. You may smoke for other reasons than to quiet your nerves. It is an obvious induction! Please, officer, let the people have a drink from time to time.
  • Does anyone “nag” you, and if so, for what reason? NO, I’have to do it myself, not to get bored.
  • Do you have a definite major purpose, and if so, what is it, and what plan do you have for achieving it? OH YES, I have to find Sask in order to restablish categories. There is no plan, it is an aleatory research. She is the only one who may understand my deep love for a satelite.
  • Do you suffer from any of the Six Basic Fears? If so, which ones? Fear is healthy as long as you don’t suffer from it (generated by non rational thought), if it is just a sign of alert that something is not going right, it may save your life
  • Have you a method by which you can shield yourself against the negative influence of others? Oh YES, not understanding them.
  • Do you make deliberate use of autosuggestion to make your mind positive? In a certain way there is no other way to survive.
  • Which do you value most, your material possessions, or your privilege of controlling your own thoughts? The ability of leaving my soul free in the knowledge of it being protected by deepest structures of thought and wisdom.
  • Are you easily influenced by others, against your own judgement? NO: I let myself be influenced in order to get the coordinates of some one I may want to put under my protection or to attack some one who is seriously bothering me.
  • Has today added anything of value to your stock of knowledge or state of mind? I understood I was horribly tired and terribly in love with my satelite.
  • Do you face squarely the circumstances which make you unhappy, or sidestep the responsibility? I face with sidesteps.
  • Do you analyze all mistakes and failures and try to profit by them or, do you take the attitude that this is not your duty? Not all, they do look differently after a certain while.
  • Can you name three of your most damaging weaknesses? What are you doing to correct them? I have no weakness, if I did, I would never say in public. Would you reveal the weak points of the border?
  • Do you encourage other people to bring their worries to you for sympathy? Not for sympathy, for interest or just because I haven’t anaything to do at that moment. Problems are incentives to the mind, that need of logic to be solved.
  • Do you choose, from your daily experiences, lessons or influences which aid in your personal advancement? Everything teaches. The question is where to order it and how to get general conclusions out of it.
  • Does your presence have a negative influence on other people as a rule? YES. People become very jealous and thus quite agressive. Specially men. It becomes boring.
  • What habits of other people annoy you most? The before mentioned.
  • Do you form your own opinions or permit yourself to be influenced by other people? Both.
  • Have you learned how to create a mental state of mind with which you can shield yourself against all discouraging influences? You’d never be aware of what hurts the world if you did.
  • Does your occupation inspire you with faith and hope? My inner occupation, yes, the other should fill my pockets.
  • Are you conscious of possessing spiritual forces of sufficient power to enable you to keep your mind free from all forms of fear? I could and though I wouldn’t.
  • Does your religion help to keep your mind positive? To have a clearer sight on general problems and possible solutions.
  • Do you feel it your duty to share other people’s worries? If so, why? Sometimes. Imagine you are in love with a satelite and it is about to have an inner short cut. Wouldn’t you worry? Generally I think though, peple should worry about themselves if they want to become wiser.
  • If you believe that “‘birds of a feather flock together,” what have you learned about yourself by studying the friends whom you attract? I don’t attract friends because they can’t keep the track.
  • What connection, if any, do you see between the people with whom you associate most closely, and any unhappiness you may experience? A few years ago I had to suffer from the evidence that people I liked were kept afar by people who either wanted to take my place or someone else’s place. I had to learn to push these people away in order to get near to those I liked myself.
  • Could it be possible that some person whom you consider to be a friend is, in reality, your worst enemy, because of his negative influence on your mind? NO, because of the before mentioned. He’s pretending to substitute some one I love, or who loves me.
  • By what rules do you judge who is helpful and who is damaging to you? By the rule of well being and benefit.
  • Are your intimate associates mentally superior or inferior to you? Usually inferior.
  • How much time out of every 24 hours do you devote to: your occupation, sleep, play and relaxation, acquiring useful knowledge, plain waste? I sleep about 8 hours or 9, I don’t play, relax working, I’m ordering useful knowledge now as much as I can (3 to 5 hours a day) but don’t acquire, I never waste time.
  • Who among your acquaintances: encourages you most, cautions you most, discourages you most? Natasha SPY is very encouraging while Sask is full of caution and quite discouraging, which on the other hand, is further help in order to go through problems.
  • What is your greatest worry? Why do you tolerate it? I wouldn’t say either. It may wake up the desire in others to make it worse just because you were unaware by saying it and letting the information arrive to some one who may no specially like you.
  • When others offer you free, unsolicited advice, do you accept it without question, or analyze their motive? I never analyze motives, because I may be disappointed after, I just take advice as sugar candies and say thank you with a smile. Ah, and … I didn’t ask for anything.
  • What, above all else, do you most desire? Do you intend to acquire it? Are you willing to subordinate all other desires for this one? How much time daily do you devote to acquiring it? Desire is sometimes nothing but a temporary goal that allows you to go through turbulences. I do never give everything for anything because it is easy to see where you are going and thus to stop you. My goals are mainly mental. Whether I make of them practical goals is depending on how much the goal is willing to fit into a general pattern. I do usually obtain what I want, which is usually the contrary of what I say to want. Although this is aleatory.
  • Do you change you mind often? If so, why? It depends on environing danger. You never say the same depending on who is around.
  • Do you usually finish everything you begin? No. I often start something in order so see how many idiots may want to destroy what I’m doing. Fishing is a good hobby.
  • Are you easily impressed by other people’s business or professional titles, college degrees, or wealth? NO, I get impressed only by intelligence, were it moral, social, esthetical, etc. which may express itself in titles, degrees or wealth, but not the last in themselves.
  • Are you easily influenced by what other people think or say of you? I get easily angry with people’s pretension to judge on things they do not understand as such.
  • Do you cater to people because of their social or financial status? Certainly not.
  • Whom do you believe to be the greatest person living? In what respect is this person superior to yourself? For me it is Sask. She has a tri/interconnected/id logic that may fit my patterns of understanding. Superior up to a certain extent; what I don’t have I may get through my own means. But it is true that I do always prefer people having something I don’t have.
  • How much time have you devoted to studying and answering these questions? (At least one day is necessary for the analysis and the answering of the entire list.) Well, sorry dear, that was 75 minutes!

If you have answered all these questions truthfully, you know more about yourself than the majority of people. Study the questions carefully, come back to them once each week for several months, and be astounded at the amount of additional knowledge of great value to yourself you will have gained by the simple method of answering the questions truthfully.
