This is the Channel of Entreprenerial Enterprise,
a design of a Transmitter.
Where the channel of Community is socialist,
the channel of Surrender is capitalist.
The instinct and memory to transmit ones Ego to the Tribe.
This is a public channel.
This is a gate specifically of Memory.
Instinctive memory,
not one that can be called forward but a memory that operates in the now and is cued by patterns in experience.
The alertness of this gate is the alertness to patterns.
The possibilities of this instinctive memory and its sharpness have no direct access to expression through the Throat.
It is a mirror of the 37th gate,
that offers social loyalty and access to the Tribal refrigerator
in return for the promise of benefits from the Ego's will power.
The 44th gate offers individual loyalty and access to its memory resources in return for the Ego's strength to assuage its fears. Coming to Meet is the gate of the fear
of the past.
