If GV, I were to suggest that you are 'wrong' (missed the mark) in what you typed what would you say?

It is easy to overstate these matters. I find that K did this at times. For example, he often spoke of memory in terms that are too broad. Bohm at times would get him to specify more, to clarify. This is of interest here in understanding what it means to learn without accumulating knowledge. In learning, knowledge is accumulating. Otherwise we would have to keep rediscovering and relearning the same things repeatedly. Edw: ....Have you discovered this for yourself, GV, or are you using your mind to describe something? Gv: whatever we write about we are using the mind to discuss or describe it. If what I am saying is not clear or not evident, we can go into it together and find out what is what. Edw: When Bohm and K were speaking with one another it was two different conversations, Bohm could no see what K was saying. I guess they used Bohm to show the stupidity of folks. Is there GV, a possibility for not using our memory minds to discuss something and use rather our intelligence? Gv: there is conditioned intelligence or intellect, and there is unconditioned intelligence. Language relates to the conditioned mind. It is from memory. Language may or may not be a tool for giving expression to insight or unconditioned intelligence. Obviously any discussion involves the use conditioned mind and memory. Yet it is possible to use the intellect to give expression to what is from unconditioned intelligence. When we speak from intelligence, we are like a conduit or vehicle. You do not know what you are going to say next until it reveals itself from silence. Then the intellect is used to hopefully provide a skillful and coherent expression of it.
