Meanings of elements

HEAD and DWELLS
…or: LOITERING with THE OWNER OR MASTER
…or: PURPOSELESS MOTION and MAINLY
…or: AIMLESS DAWDLING with GOD
…or: STANDING IDLE while PALMING OPIUM

Where one's「head dwells」explains all the given meanings, however vaguely that may be. When the「master」is in「purposeless motion, aimless wandering, loitering」somewhere, the master has DEPARTED from his faculties, likely as a result of narcotic use as「purposeless aimless and palming, controlled by opium.」Recall that the Brits reaped a tidy profit peddling opium to the Chinese, causing two wars as China sought to halt that trade, however opium was used throughout Asia long prior to the arrival of British drug pushers, beginning at least 5,400 years ago. When the「main part is in purposeless motion, aimless wandering, loitering」what remains is likely ROTTING or DEAD. Moving out of the path of the master or the main party is also to PARRY, SIDESTEP and ALLOW OTHERS TO PASS and then FOLLOW AFTER the master, or to simply pass by a master who has passed out, not stepping on him.「Loitering in aimless motions」「principally, mainly」describes a taking a head journey while giving oneself a selfie as the main event and most commonly performed motion, to ORGASM.

みち

Always keep in mind that these glyphs were originally created by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles and analogies for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that) and represented Chinese society many thousands of years ago, and not as a written or spoken language. If these glyphs had been intended for language use, the sages could not have possibly designed a worse system. Is it truly possible that all these glyphs started out as off-color jokes and puzzles? Yes! It is! Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? And now, there is a cover-up. No one is suggesting these glyphs depict contemporary life in China, Japan, or anywhere else. This site describes glyph meanings, not people. These glyphs however, describe many and various things, including people, long before there were any notions of becoming politically incorrect. The question to be answered is, should these glyphs continue being used, by anyone, anywhere, for expressing language? (More...) Despite how bad the human world is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or they could only have been worse?

By the way, with a limited number of the same elements used by the sages again and again to form these glyphs, you should expect to find the same explanations again and again, as tedious as that may become, and as an inherent trait of any dictionary. This site explains the dual meanings of glyphs most often ignored by other sources that provide you with only the sanctioned definition, generally.
