When Pacman hits the power up he can chase and eat those ghosts that follow him around trying to take his life though! And the power up is the non white pellets, but the plant medicines that alter reality to see beyond! An opportunity to level up...but ultimately its just the glimpse to do more inner work to exorcise the ghosts of the past. and break outside the limiting boundaries of the game itself.
Thankfully one place free from them for now.....and the ghosts are the shadow of himself he's running from, chasing his own invisiblel tail through distraction
"The addiction inside the game itself is to accumulate the most points. Not unlike life, the ever-circling wheel of Groundhog Day (wake up, work, achieve, eat, sleep, repeat), can be seen in the game of Pac-Man and the Game of Life. What do you actually gain in the fulfillment of consuming all of that stuff, in winning that award, in filling up with information in an infinite digital black hole where no human could possibly discern the amount that is useless versus useful."
That's too kind! 😍 🥰 😘 If you end up liking it and want to share your thoughts in the Comments, I'm happy to comp you some time behind my paywall to save you unnecessary hassle ... Just let me know ... 🙏
