Even brain-mastubating can be taken on as if it would be real, right?
Why not simply take on ways of thinking the Liberal pointed out to go beyond desire of all kind?
In that way, of which he tries, good householder wouln't stop go after the refrigerator or are there first signs?

If you pick up a bowl of water and carry it across the room to a table, the water will splash against the sides of the bowl and develop eddies and waves as you move. If you come back an hour later, The splashing and eddies and waves are gone. So where did they go?
When pure consciousness is disturbed it develops its own splashes and eddies and wavs. Some of these we alienate as 'karma' or 'phenomena'; others we identify with as 'self'. If we don't let them still, they perpetuate, constantly recreating themselves. If we do still them they fade to nothing, and yet we lose nothing in the fading.
A man we call Gautama awakened to the stillness of pure consciousness. The man died; the stillness didn't.
