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)

The healing of the brain, of course.
The healing of the brain from what, bruce, from psychological suffering, you mean, like trauma, etc? I'm curious.

Re: wonderful world
Are you saying a conditioned mind can free itself of conditioning and become whole, indivisible? If so how does that come about according to what you understand?

WONDERFUL WORLD.
As I was driving along a road past the market, I noticed two young guys about 10 - 12, and they were on each side of the road, pretending they were each holding a pretend rope, that of course would stop all cars. As I noticed it, i stopped. I think they didn't expect someone to do this, and they laughed, and they pretended to let the rope go slack so i could pass. I smiled and they were laughing there asses of. IT was so cool, and shit like that amidst this so serious serious world is indeed a joy. So to the young fellas having fun. THANKYOU.

Nice bu, what fun...so what happened is you were able to recognize the actuality of the kids playing "none shall pass". Technical thought recognizes what is actually there instead of putting the scenery together. Psychological thought inputs scenery and characters that do not fit the actuality.

You maybe right on that, but how do you say so, sir, if I may ask. Are you saying that a conditoned mind is doomed for good?

Freedom is already there, it has already won, it can embrace anything, the pain, the joy, the body-heart as it is. Can you love your conditioned mind full of ideas? Can you love all your kinks?

Re: wonderful world
What do you mean by that word, when you're using it? Is it a feeling, a sentiment, an emotion?

Yes, I'm saying that, but I don't like that word, 'doomed', which suggests an escape towards a way out, which may be the culprit.
What happens to a conditioned mind when it sees it will always remain conditioned, do what it will?

Since mind is movement, there is constant change. So one can't say 'always'. The only thing to which 'always' applies is to that which doesn't change at all, which is not the mind. In any case, in the end, whether your mind remains stuck in its own maze or not, you are dead. So enjoy the journey.

Some change may occur, or not. But what makes the conditioned mind see itself for the conditioning that it is, just wondering...is it something outside of itself, like pressure, challenges, etc, or something else?
