Tao Stoic 156

"What sham display are our universities Master. Playing at Mind-Science, for costly taxpayer's money!"

"They play not Mind-Science, but they play scientists, just as children play grown-ups or parents. But what caught your eye?"

"I asked one what would happen if a man came for help with his sleeping problem. He would have observed that his dog would just curl up and sleep. He wanted to be the same. Yet there was not one professor about who could do it, although they earn a hundred thousand per year."

"Indeed, so easy it is to teach sleep, that it would be the work for a freshman at a real Mind-Science department of real university. The sufferer should be cured in one or two sittings. Afterwards he'd NEVER need a pseudologist in his life again. As I said, not playing science, but playing scientist, that's what it is."
