If you touch yourself and it has bunded you hand you then assess if it needs meditation. Do you just put you hand in cold water. Etc. This is the thinking part.
Jul 11, 2017 at 13:44 comment added Mike de Klerk About the URL you provided: I find it difficult to plow through to extract information I am looking for. Maybe buddhist literature is not for me :) I feel I do not need to read about who caried a golden stick when at what age to understand the proces of arise of meaning. No offense though. What I surely take away from this all is the Conceptual proliferation you pointed out. Thank you.
Jul 11, 2017 at 13:40 comment added Mike de Klerk Thank you for answering. I disagree with "What one perceives, one thinks about". I disagree that I would think about everything I perceive. From my experience my subconscious may invoke some reaction to something I perceive without thinking. Like pulling my hand back when I touch something that is unexpectedly hot. I read that signal does not even come from the cognitive brain. Or is thinking defined otherwise here? I think of thinking as what you consciously apply to solve a puzzle for instance. Could you maybe elaborate on how I would need to view 'thinking' in this context? Thank you.
