That is because Sophia is the seat of wisdom and we took her home and called her Mary.

Desire is no part of it because how can one desire what he already has? Desire is in the absense of what she has to offer us, and obviously is the most enigmatic of them all if everyone is chasing her, which is precisely why Plato called it a deprivation by look-alikes as sophists, and so now seeking is worst thing we can do and on our knees we go.

There is nothing wrong with pleasure that we seek to sooth our pain while we are outsider to our self, that so makes them appearances like sunshine in our life. That is why the gold was good in the land of Havilah where we want more of the same and want forever more, and I wrote you this before.And we go by appearances, as we must while in the absense of the true light that was prior to the sun, that is and remains hid from us for as long as we seek pleasure of the light of common day.

But be reminded here that evening will follow and pain returns as its own opposite to pleasure that cannot be conceived to exist without the other as a pair of opposites inside the human mind where they only are appearances that we see, while the Good is never part of it. Hence they are the illusion that we go by, as we must while in the absense of the true light that illuminates the sun itself or even bats could see, you dingbat you, they used to say.

So the purpose of pleasure now is to make high's known in our daily life so that darkness will return each time until we exhaust ourself as look-alike in the pretensions that we demonstrate . . . and so finally the light of common day [that we worship] will have lost its charm, and we, as worn down prodigal return to the place we first started and there find ourself to take a second run in life.*

This is where Siddharta left his kingdom, and in the valley of the Ganges while alseep under a Bodhi tree found himself, in the same way as Jonah found himself while asleep at the bottom of a ship on a journey for which he had paid the fare and so was a genuine there = faith in the heart as juxtaposed with Markan evangelistic trickery ("come one, come all, confess your sins and you will be saved for sure").

Interesting here is that friendhip should never be a social skill that is taught in schools wherein destiny is retained inside the skill we demonstrate as an end in itself, as social animal now, that so nihilates (or diminish) our purpose in life wherein we must annihilate the pretender that we are, now as skill-full pretender often with a series of protected titles behind our name to fortify the human pretender that we are.

Opposite this should piety in children be our aim to raise the benchmark of intergity for whom 'prodigal' only needs to mean 'lost' in relation to the happy-go-lucky childhood he or she once knew.

* This is where Yang makes a jump-shift to Yin and so a second go-around begins now with Sophia at the helm, which then so also makes philosophy a liability while inside the Yang where now Sophia is our target that we want to fornicate without the jump-shift made, that so makes Her both illusive and vunerable as the target of our aim in the absense of wisdom itself.
