\chap Instructions for the Flyntian Modality
\vfill
\typoscale[1400/]
\begitems\style n
* Stop all \dq{gross believing,} such as belief in other minds, causality, and the phantom entities of science (atoms, electrons, etc).
* Stop thinking in propositional language.
* Stop all scientific hypothesizing. Do not consider your \dq{sightings} of the empire state building as confirmations that it is there when you are not looking at it---or for that matter, as confirmations that it is there when you \e{are} looking at it.
* Stop organizing visual experiences and tactile experiences into object-gestalts. Stop organizing so-called \dq{different spatial orientations or different touched surfaces of objects} into object-gestalts. That is, stop having perceptions of objects.
* Stop believing in past and future time. That is, live out of time. Stop feeling longing, dread, or regret.
* Stop believing that you can move your body.
* Stop believing that these instructions have any objective meaning.
* You are now free to walk through walls (if you can find them).
