I see a beautiful woman. The instinctual response is the whole movement of desire and sensation. That is the habit, the mechanistic movement of tradition, etc. Now I see and realise how my brain is always functioning in habit. So I say, ‘How very interesting. I am going to play, there must be a game in this.’ I watch. I see the beautiful woman, the sensation. Basta! Why should the whole thing go on?
