Boy does it ever rigsy! The more I look at situations, timing is the
rule behind everything. With the right timing everything can fall into
place beautifully or just be a wreck.

Maybe you are talking about control as I think there are always going
to be great differences in values, thinking and behavior. We deal with
these differences in positive or negative ways derived from family,
education and other meaningful realtionships. We might feel threatened
by differences- could this be a throwback to survival skills? Would
you prefer humanity to all be the same? Where do we get the idea that
relationships can be ideal in a static sense? And maybe we allow
others to run all over us allowing ourselves to be a martyr or carry a
chip on our shoulder. I have found that compromise and trying to
understand another's point of view can be challenging yet, if
successful, can be like an epiphany and quite beautiful- in this case,
timing matters a great deal. :-)

at the first glance of your reply came a thought to my mind about collective
consciousness...rather a question...does the collective consciousness exist
independently...what does it mean exactly...to put it crudely is it the
realisation that you are not the only phenomena..but what i feel is....it is
very difficult to transcend ones own person...but is it important....why do
we really get irritated with self absorbed or self seeking people....why do
we condemn selfishness..in any sense...are we so insecure as to feel
deprived because of that ...or is it something more.. i hope i make sense..
and i hope you get waht i am trying to ask...i would like all to
answer...cos i really want to know....

This take appeals to my understanding. Perpetually changing, evolving
and reforming. Input has an outcome and causes an expanded "mind
space", if you will. Is logic all logical and what is to be said about
rationalizing the "irrational"? Should my thinking be correct by the
standards of others or to my own? What of "raising the bar" in
consciousness and of a paradigm shift to a more correct thinking of
our "collective mind" ? Of all that goes into into thought and mind is
this not the desired effect?

might thought be colored by the mind that engages it ....what is the
realm
of pure thought that you mention here .... is it logic and
rationalisation...do you mean the method of employing that
thought...because
....knowing...percieving something for the first time the mind will
automatically fall back on the things it thinks it does know....

Knowledge unites, in being or in identity. Thinking separates, in
subject-object relationship.
Knowing has no place in the ordinary thought process. Thinking about
something
which has to be known is wrong, since it moves in a vicious circle. You
cannot think
of anything you have not known. Such thinking can never take you to the
Truth.
But when you direct your thought to something (say yourself) which you
have
otherwise
visualized, the thought loses its own characteristics and limits, and
stands
revealed as that Self (Consciousness) itself. Thought is thus reduced
into
its essence.
