I try to remember this character through its association with DAOism…the walking radical partially wrapping the character represents the journey of seeking knowledge, the 目/eye in the center symbolizes the clarity of sight brought about by higher truths, and the strokes above the eye look like a little crown, which can be taken to represent somebody who has attained a state of nirvana (which is technically Buddhist, but whatever helps you remember the character I guess)
this radical is composed of walking radical as well as the part that kinda looks like traffic light (square with 3 sections inside, hanging from the horizontal bar with two “holders”).Thus it resembles the “avenue” where you walk and which has traffic lights.
