The Long Path runs from the start of his quest to, possibly, an advanced stage, depending on the particular person's inner history. When he is getting ready for the Short Path, one sign may appear as a falling away from the Long Path. But here the possibility of error exists. The beginner may react from his early endeavours by getting tired of practice, discipline, or failures. He too may fall away, but for negative reasons.
