A SERMON ABOUT THE TRUE NATURE OF TSOTL
By Tidings-Scrolls Scribe Llebpmac Mit
--*--
The information you are about to read
is strictly for YOUR EYES ONLY! You've
worked hard to get to this level, so if
there is somebody else with you, please
press 'P' to pause, and ask your guest
to leave you for a while.
---------------------------------------
What is TSOTL? Does he truly exist?
Can you believe it when you're told
that the answer is "Yes"?
No, this is not another religion, but
as you read on, you may get some feel
for the philosophy that produced Pyroto
Mountain.
TSOTL is the Spirit Of The Land. Now,
this Land is a computerized system, and
its "spirit" (thinking back to the
Greek word "Pneumos") is that which
breathes life into it. That is to say,
the inspiration which produced Pyroto.
Therefore, TSOTL is The Muse. The
driving force which causes us to create
something. TSOTL is but one name for
the desire to create, and for that in-
ternal source of inspiration that we
don't truly understand.
In the context of Pyroto, then, TSOTL
is also the synergy between the program
that you are using and yourself. Your
imagination has been fired to create a
landscape that does have its own exist-
ance. TSOTL's existance can be proved,
inasmuch as you have been driven to
strive to reach this high level.
But this is not to say that TSOTL is
just a synonym for "drive". TSOTL is
the inspiration that CREATES this kind
of drive. He (or it, or she) is your
internal inspiration, which leads to
your internal imperative.
Ponder this concept, because it is not
typical of the pure-logical philosophy
that is typical of the computer world.
Experienced programmers will tell you
that they just KNOW how to write a pro-
gram, but can't explain this knowledge
in logical terms, because intuition is
not available for logical analysis.
Please keep this article private. You
may not agree with it, or you may not
fully understand it, but there are wiz-
ards who will find something in it that
will help them. But they should first
experience the drive of which we've
spoken.
If you DO understand this missive, you
have probably detected the fact that
you, too, are a Servant of TSOTL. That
inspiration forced you to learn, and to
accomplish.
Why have you bothered to reach for this
high level?
The Spirit Of The Land made you do it.
