ps, as for herman brood's suicide there could of course have been something
quite different going on there than reactivity to the ET, credo experto - -
or to say, perhaps something more apartake of the circumstance of some
starkly dark necessity risen all the way up to a deleuzean leap "out into
the great wide open" (tom petty) - or perhaps also as in Marlow's
(Conrad's) hesitating foot toward a crossing of "the threshold of the
invisible" - here in this case the hesitation ended in an ending

You obviously don't know what follows suicide.

Think of having a nightmare. The natural reaction is to wake up and quit
that sufferance. When you end your own life, you have nowhere to wake up.
It's a continuous nightmare.

Nobody killed himself for he broke an arm or a leg. People suicide because
of terrible soul pain they want to escape. But, this is only an illusion.
They fully enter the zone they wanted to avoid.

While in physic body you are a lot protected from pain. For example, you can
do a hard physic work. This takes away much of your sufferance. Why do you
think monks flagellate? To escape soul pain, for carnal pain is much more
bearable.

Even an initiate like Crowley couldn't handle soul pain and committed
suicide. But, he entered afterwards the valley of shadow of death, of whom
the Tibetan Book of Dead also speaks. There he suffered a lot more from the
malefic entities he thought he commanded.

His master, Gurdjieff put his disciples to heavy manual labors just to avoid
that.
