Perhaps There Is Some Confusion In This Disscussion On
The Nature Of Mind Because We Are Actually Blending
Two Different Terms With Two Different Definitions.
There Is Mind As Big Mind Which Is Like The Ocean.
This Is The Source Of All Mentation,thoght,
Perception. It Is The Source From Which The Perciver
Arises.... Mind With A Capital M . Then There Is mind
With A Small m. This Is What We Think Of As Our Mind
This Is Like A Portion Of The Ocean Contained In A
Bottle. What Is In The Bottle Is Exactly Ocean, But Is
Not The Same As The Ocean. It Is True That Sharks Swim
In The Ocean, And That There Is Ocean In The Bottle.
This Does Not Mean Sharks Swim In The Bottle. There Is
Much More To The Ocean Than There Can Be Contained In
A Bottle. Break The Bottle And What Is Inside Returns
To Where It Came From. We Can Learn A Bit About This
Big Mind In Which The Flags Move By Looking Closely At
The Small m mind That Is Contained In Our Skin Bag But
Our mind Can Never Really Comprehend Mind.
