Truth

1) Remember. Attempt to recall the contingencies of your animateness. Who were you? Did the dandelions growing in the cracks of a particular sidewalk give your ghostly presence any nostalgia, or did the sign that displays a faded 1999? Did the faded baseball cap perched languidly atop those boxes make your heart hasten its resounding beat? The idiosyncrasies of your character are crucial to ascertaining any facts about your concrete personage.

2) Reflect. Once you have adequately fabricated a vision of your obsolete self, force your mind to delve into each aspect of your being more diligently. What is it, exactly, in your past that is holding you back? What is the source of the lingering regret that chains you to your phenomenal existence? Are the chains commenced by the woman stooping above a gravestone (your gravestone?), the neglected manuscript stretched over your granite kitchen counter, or even the timorously wilted perennials whose vigor you undertook? Does the charmingly anachronistic portrait of burgeoning Claude Monet posing with a digital camera have any significance?

3) Resonate. Find peace. This instruction is the vaguest and briefest, for it means different things for different entities. You could take it as simply putting to rest the leeching vices dormant in your mind (discussed in instruction 1).
