     People  focus  their attention  upon  many  different
kinds of trying to-be-in-control-of:

     1.  Appearances  of self and/or others---even  though
the appearances may be misleading, deceptive or collusive.

     2.  Reputations  of  self and/or others---whether  or
not deserved.

     3.  Membership,   inclusion  or exclusion  of,   self
and/or   others   upon  the  basis   of   birth,    merit,
accomplishments,   purity,   election,  purchase,   deals,
exchanges, subterfuge, etc.

     4.  Presence in the courts of those who are powerful,
respected, advantaged, etc.

     5.  Behaviors  of  self  and/or others to  make  them
conform  to prescriptions,  proscriptions,   expectations,
formulas, traditions, etc.

     6.  Outcomes,  consequences,  results,  achievements,
etc.

     7.  Ultimate salvation or damnation.

     8.  Cycles of incarnation or release from such cycles
of   incarnation   in  various  levels  of  being   and/or
punishment.

     9.  Relationships between/among self/others.

     10.  Success/failure.

     Much  depends  upon what kinds of control  we  and/or
others seek to achieve and/or are willing to let go of.

     Our   personal   and   communal   integrity    and/or
disintegration depend upon what we try-to-control and what
we are willing to let be outside the realm of what we  try
to control.
