     Horse,

    What then is contingent upon "receptivity to DQ" if not attitude alone?
    Moreover, I believe it was Barfield who spoke of the fundamental importance
    of "participation." I take this to be equivalent to "attitude."

    seems to be saying this.
     
    Attitude is certainly part of it but attitude can cover a lot of ground. The
    willingness to change
    when circumstances dictate is a necessary part of growth. Refusal to change
    when it's
    'obviously' necessary results in stagnation. Alleviation of suffering
    (healing, harmonization etc.)
    cannot occur without a reallignment or reassessment of static patterns and
    in order for this to
    occur one must be receptive to DQ.
    So attitude is certainly a big part of it.
