#inthought - The Difference Between Observation and Perception , does one lead to the other?

@page { margin: 0.79in } p { margin-bottom: 0.1in; line-height: 120% } 26 August 2019 : 9.35 pm. @page { margin: 0.79in } p { margin-bottom: 0.1in; line-height: 120% } This will be a rather tricky issue to discuss, because we would be going right into the very tool we are using for our examination. The very fact of reading these discussions of _inthought you are making an observation provided your level of attention is of a sufficient quality so as to give you an insight into what you are observing. That very insight should give you a subtle change within your being, and in that we would say that there is perception; or it has taken place. This is really a discussion into the art of seeing, because there are very many tricks which can arise from this observation...

#inthought - The Root of Dualistic Thinking

This would not be the first instance of writing about duality, in itself as a concept. There would not be a need to define or describe the nature of dualistic thinking, but rather to elaborate on the path of observation which aimed to describe duality. The most common dualistic thinking expressed by most today is in the sense of morality, which really seems to be the basis of behaviour in relationship , either between ourselves or the environment within which we find ourselves caught in. The distinction between good and bad can be seen as a measure of describing the nature of action, since all our expression takes place in the form of action, either action in speech, gesture or creation. Our ability to set attributes of observation to action seems to stem from the observation of the ideal...

#inthought - Desire and Conflict

Desire and Conflict One of the biggest challenges of any mind is to separate concept from truth within its waking world of experience. Our minds have grown and developed from an early age in a technological society will have had to deal with a great deal of concepts. This ability to deal with concept has been described conceptually and we have even devised tests to determine our ability to deal with concept. The IQ test is a modern day test which is rather believed to test the intelligence of an individual. I could bring into question its ability to test or determine the true nature of intelligence of a human being, and with the belief in the infinite nature of intelligence of the human mind, one can only ask which mind has come up with the IQ test. It will be very clear from this onset...

#inthought - The Nature of Understanding

The Nature of Understanding  Understanding seems to be one of the functions of the brain which cannot be put into words, but the nature of the mind which has understood can somehow be put in a logically discernable manner. A state of understanding can somehow be placed into a state of contentment, in which the mind does not continue to churn over and process or hold in its space the information which it does not understand. Lack of understanding implies that the mind is not identified with the particular idea or information, therefore it has no place in the current order of the operation of the particular mind, and hence breed conflict with that which it does not understand. This occurs when the mind finds classification of knowledge in other aspects which it does not identify as parts...

#inthought - The Importance of Identifying with the I

The 'I' is the root of operation of thought, and most of what we call action in its sense is based on what we think of our selves. In many ways, the way we think about ourselves determines the nature of our action. What ever task we set ourselves to, the root of action will always be the 'I'. If the 'I' is not consistent with the thought and hence the feeling, which usually expresses itself as negative emotion, then the proceeding action will be incomplete, sloppy, or in a sense carried out with a diminished sense of attention. So it is important to feel good before acting. As one would observe themselves, the idea of the I becomes more and more ingrained as one proceeds throughout the activities of the world. The I, which is a definable set of memories of existence of the awareness which...

#inthought - The Awareness of Thought

A rather tricky article to write, since it has many ways to intepret and view. It is rather difficult because the nature of reading, and the nature of conversation are two completely different scenarios in the mind of many. In reading text, the intepretation and sight of the what is read, is purely for the intepretation of the reader, whereas conversation and dialogue, there is a constant sharing of intepretation so as to have the same mind about the subject. So what is it which interferes with intepretation? Various faculties of the brain are responsible for activities we intepret as existence, and much of the basis of our action stems from such faculties. If we were to ask, what is it which the brain listens for in order to act? Be it reading a book, or watching a drama, or driving an automobile,...

#inthought - Duality is Physics of the Mind

 "Part of understanding the world comes from learning that the world is undefinable. It is made up of goo and prickles, sometimes one may say that it is made of gooey prickles or prickly goo. It is really dependent on how you look at it." These are the words of a famous philosopher and scholar of the early 70's who goes by the name Alan Watts. To anyone who is not vaguely interested in philosophy or the arts, will see this or hear the statement and immediately rubbish it as banter worthy of a kindergarten audience, however, this may play a very important role in understanding the human mind in the 21st century and how it as developed or...
