although those who wish to offer assistance, spiritually, mean well,

their self-centeredness belies their own efforts. Such individuals

engage in such shallow thinking, that their construction of the world

has a surrealistic, off the wall, far fetched and tortured quality;

very imaginative, but far off the mark, hence fabulous ( " fabuloes " ).

although such activity can be amusing, it can also be so trite as to

be an irritating distraction from more important activities.

literally, " I think (ellipses, repeatedly used here, indicating a

pregnant pause or time for judicious consideration) that these words

(that I have written here) aren't too complicated (since ac had

expressed some confusion) except for little ego-minds (a diminutive,

condescending, yet endearing description of overly self-centered and

self-important people) 'who' (in quotations, a vague reference,

perhaps meant to mock self-importance, as in 'who's who' in the

'important people' department) try hard (meaning, put inappropriate

effort into) but can't get over their imaginary self (that is, their

superfluous and unrealistic sense of self-importance) "

 

 

mere translator's comment:

 

I find it easy to identify with Mark's words. There are plenty of

people who seem to think that they're more important than I. They seem

to think that the things they say, and the activities they engage in,

are more important than mine. I resent this. It makes me feel as

though the reverse is true. Rather, it is I who is more important, I

who have more perspective. It is I who have such profound wisdom that

I don't even have a need to draw attention to myself. If forced, or

cajoled, I will merely, meekly, point to what I consider the obvious

futility of self-importance itself.

 

But who am I to say, one way or the other? I am merely a confused

egomaniac, humbly trying to understand the obvious, so obvious, that

it continually eludes me. And no matter how much you may look down

upon me, you couldn't look down more than I do, both upon myself and

others. After all, I'm already dead and gone to heaven, the place of

ultimate perspective, the place of looking down on everything.

Indeed, I am life itself.
