Guest guest Posted March 7, 2003 Report Share Posted March 7, 2003 Hello Everyone Thank you for the invitation to join your group. I have not yet posted anything but I have been reading all of your posts with interest for some time now. I just wanted to comment on your post Sandeep, about there being no chaos except for that which the mind creates. Chaos means "disorder". The mind "orders". That is what the mind does! Just as the eye sees, or the nose smells, the mind finds order in a universe which has no order, or at least no order which our mind could possibly discern. Granted, sometimes the mind orders in a "chaotic" fashion, but ultimately it is searching for meaning. It is trying to make sense of that which makes no sense.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2003 Report Share Posted March 7, 2003 Hiya Silvia, Welcome.:-) Some two cents for your consideration........ - "Silvia Winowski" <winowski <> Friday, March 07, 2003 12:17 PM Re:Chaos > Hello Everyone > > Thank you for the invitation to join your group.

Does it? Out of chaos are born stars. What is seen as chaos, ............is it just not an inability in the moment, to see the perfection of that moment? > The mind "orders". The mind is about the known. And thus can only try to fit the moment into the box of known. > That is what the mind does!

Yes, the unfolding Universe is quite unconcerned with the discerning ability of the mind. > > Granted, sometimes the mind orders in a "chaotic" fashion, but ultimately it is searching for meaning. It is trying to make >sense of that which makes no sense. No doubt. And that is why the mind can never apperceive. Which does not suggest that mindlessness can apperceive either.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2003 Report Share Posted March 8, 2003 OM Blessed Self "The mind cannot know what is beyond the mind..." Yes, and that is why beyond the Manomaya Kosha, we have the Vijnanamaya Kosha and the Anandamaya Kosha, for it is these vehicles that lead us to Satchidananda, That which the mind cannot give. "... but the mind is known by what is beyond it." A As above, the right inquiry of the Vijnanamaya Kosha leads to experience as the Anandamaya Kosha and beyond.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2003 Report Share Posted March 9, 2003 Hi Chuck, - "Rev.

Why can the mind not know what is beyond itself, like the eye which sees the flower in the garden? The eye can see the flower in the garden. But the eye can never see itself, except as a reflection. What is the mind? A notion, inferred by the mnemonic impressions of experiences. It cannot go beyond this collation of experiences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
