Well IMO 'stalking the self' is literally a case of denconstructing the routines that make us who we normally are. That is a simple way of describing it. Lets start with that. Just mapping out the **** that makes me me and then chucking a spanner or two in the mix just for the hell of it. It sound simple doesn't it? It is, even though i currently struggle with this insanely simple idea.
Later on when we start to gather power with this we can move these simple disruptions of routines into genuine 'not doings'.
For me a genuine not doing is practicing a disrupted routine that has been singled out by 'power'. I'll give an example.
I once went to a weekend tensegrity seminar, took part and went home. When at home i went upstairs to read a book as per normal, (some non dual **** i was into at the time) To my surprise i found i was more comfortable reading the book when the page was reversed. I actually felt the need to read the book using a mirror.It just felt much more comfortable this way.It was a complete surprise. This was not pre concieved, planned ,or anything. It just happened.
I think stalking ourself and power go hand in hand. One will lead simply to the next on its own. Following such things is merely hunting abstract events, AKA 'stalking'.
This is where i am right now with the word. That i can describe with any lucidity anyway.
