Watching Stargate gave me impetus for thought on the issue of ascendency

Most animal focus is on improvement of status, even the basic needs of warmth, shelter, water and food are arguably about ensuring the creatures survival so that it can procreate and have descendants. Along with the notion of descendants come ancestors, who have usually acquired some respect, not least by their descendants and are in a position of ascendency.

However there is no conceivable way of attaining this state. All use of mind within the confines of the body require the maintenance of the body corporeal which is built on ascendency.

Training the mind to reduce dependence on subjugation there is an inevitable discovery of santhara
