So you see the thing is that the game, there's always the fear the underlying fear that the game may be given away. Now that fear isn't altogether unreasonable. Because part of the fascination of games is to get involved and in a way, to forget that they are games.
The actor on the stage does his dandiest to persuade you that he is moving in the real world. And children love to get completely absorbed in their games and get the actual thrill of adventure in playing at war and so on. And, you see one reason why people don't really want to know the future, why a really expert fortune teller gives most people a little bit of trepidation is that if you know what the future is going to be it is less worthwhile going ahead towards it.
If you know the outcome, why bother? How far can you get away with giving the show away about the game?
The fascination of seeing how to put together, knowing it's a game and still playing it. And doing this is what in Mahayana Buddhism is called being a 'bodhisattva'.
A 'bodhisattva' is a person who doesn't give his show away completely. He doesn't simply release his consciousness from playing the human game. He is released and yet still in it. He knows the human game is the game but he goes on playing it with considerable gusto and his gusto derives in a great deal from the fact of knowing it's a game. You see you can do that; to be able to know it's a game and yet enjoy doing it.
