Kindly be mindful of the following points regarding the forum. Dialogue is thinking together - it isn’t debate - and it's inquiring together without end point or agenda. People come into the dialogue from their own place of understanding, which is not going to be your place of understanding. We’re here to communicate together, learn together and gain insight into our own thought; to receive and share our observations, not impose our views on others. Address the comments in a polite, considerate manner. By all means, ask for clarification, but challenge the comment, not the commentator. We don’t know enough about the others to make those judgments and we’re here to learn about ourselves, not to correct another's perceived personality flaws. If a comment brings an emotional response, look at that. Do you feel the need to defend? To attack? Time for some looking inward. Self protection results in war. Besides, the war is in each of us. Stop that war, and the rest will take care of itself. (For some suggestions on the nature of dialogue, please click here)

That is illogical. It doesn't follow logically from what I said, inviting another to look at it, that I'm confused. Does anyone else think this is not so?

You said you were unsure as to whether or not truth could be translated into words.  You are even confused about the things that come out of your own mouth.

I am unsure, yes, about the truth being translated into words. Not being sure, I can discover, right now-not, having discovered in the past, I repeat it like a robot.

  Unsure does not mean confused.

Obviously Eden any psychological authority, or concluder  is confused to, because that authority is also using memory. What most do not understand is a lightening of their mental baggage and load is what insight does. Insights do not give you more beliefs they make you lighter freer, and wise with less to defend, and nothing more in the form of knowing solutions, or conclusions  to  accumulate. Real Cooperation can never take place between believers anyway. The teacher student relationship in anything except the technical is false . :-)

You've missed the point. Only in uncertainty can one discover something new.
