in the most simplest of terms anyhow, similarities can be found in either interpretation

Exactly, that is what I believe it is. Quote:

Your choices still created that habbit, and you can probably likely make a choice to change that habbit. Telling yourself that you can't change it and you're now stuck as you are is you choosing to let it remain.

it was never my belief that we cannot train ourselves to let go of habit. do you have the choice tonight to lucid dream all night? this is what i mean. habit prevents us from letting go right now to that extent.

yes this is true although 'letting go' itself can become a habit to let go of  see 'letting go' is a concept an idea, another attachment letting of the idea of letting go is really letting go
non-attachment to non-attachment is non-attachment

Great thread, not done reading through it yet but wanted to add something.
I have this experience with mushrooms with light, Im wondering how many of you also notice this.
After flipping the light switch in a dark room there is an actual delay that goes on where the light in the room slowly grows, much like a dimmer, as opposed to one flick and the room is full of light. For me its a gradual increase (5-10+seconds) of light that seems to be traveling to all corners of the room (or my retina) to slowly illuminate the entire room. This has also worked the other way around (turning off the light).
Any one? Any thoughts?
