One of the most formidable ancient techniques is called way of the coyote. It not only taught one how to survive but how to thrive pointing the way through observation, technique, practice, and skill forming no exclusions.

Indigenous people learned how to be from everything not them and once mastered the technique could share that power with them in harmony as they too learn much from us as we do them. Physical techniques showed how to thrive in all habitats through the 4 elements. Fire, shelter, water, food (not that order). Follows with mental, emotional, and spiritual. For example, The dimensions of each have the 7 virtues and vices.
One emotion(both spectrums of virtue/vice) got me as I didn’t realize I was within the coyote teachings which is really hard if not aware.

Teachers today tell what to do. That does not become a part of you. There is confidence within coyote tracing that is not taught much in today’s societies. No experience until later after told by teacher the one way so that has no backbone to stand on that will shatter if any force comes at any weak spot to test that. One way is based off mathematics.

Muscle memory of one way is only good for certain movements. They do not account for what is not yet known. Coyote shows there are many ways for a subject but wisdom through experience gives it a thriving chance for contentment in any situation of the big group of the 4.

Champollion with the Rosetta Stone took away the remembering of the threat of being forced into the army. He followed similar to Schliemann putting off Ancient Greek until taught to speak and write all other European languages.
Thing is, when Champollion has lenoirs book on deciphering hieroglyphics he laughed hysterically at the possibility through his fantasy and misguided scholarship. The blow of the task of making dead symbols talk understandably and coherently causes him to have a dream. Egyptian voices spoke out of the phantasmagoria. His true being stood forth, untrammeled by the distractions of everyday, revealing a man possessed, manically fixed, bewitched by the hieroglyphics with intimations of triumph. More than a dozen years separated him from his goal. He had a vision quest lol
