Reached for: Acid (LSD) (I)
“There's a shortcut to the union I never got, and I'll go right up to the edge of dying to reach it.”
It runs as a hunger for the shortcut to unity, a fascination-driven, exhilaration-seeking spiritual search for merger and a better world, pursued because a childhood left the person connection-starved and unmet, missing an experience they sense they should have had. The search is sincere and it reaches, at times, all the way to the edge of death. What it asks for is to let the missing connection be found, in pieces, on this side of the veil.
Nachiketa, who walked straight to the house of Death to demand the ultimate knowledge no one at home would give him. The form implies a task: to find the union in the living, not only at the threshold of dying.
