Stalkers deal with people, with the world of ordinary affairs. Stalkers are the practitioners of controlled folly as the dreamers are the practitioners of dreaming. Controlled folly is the basis for stalking, as dreams are the basis for dreaming. Generally speaking, a warrior's greatest accomplishment in the second attention is dreaming, and in the first attention his greatest accomplishment is stalking.

In the absence of self-importance, a warrior's only way of dealing with the social milieu is in terms of controlled folly.

Deal with the world exclusively in terms of controlled folly.
