Mind and body relationship. “between mind and heart" represents the internal conflict between logical, analytical thought (mind) and emotional, intuitive feelings (heart). The mind acts as a "thinking machine" focused on logic, ego, and problem-solving, while the heart represents deeper desires, passion, and spiritual connection. Balancing them is crucial, as they are not truly opposites but, when aligned, represent a harmonious, holistic approach to life.

Body and mind is the balance in communication. In relationships and communication, truth ensures that love is not naive or enabling, while love ensures that truth is communicated with care rather than just to be "right". Body (Vehicle): The physical machine requiring nourishment and care. Mind (Driver): The software or operator controlling the body's actions. Senses (Horses): The instruments that pull the chariot (body). Goal: The driver must master the body, preventing distraction by worldly objects to reach a peaceful, purposeful destination. Final Destination > Peace, Love, Harmony & Equilibrium. Resting Light. 😊

Beautiful.

It is quite common to see through the illusion of self at one level and find that a more subtle version is being reconstituted in some form. It is as if something refuses to believe that this can be possible. Somewhere, there must be a little man running the show. On investigation, no little man is to be found, except as a bunch of thoughts about thoughts. It is a self-reflective loop, isn’t it?

Nice. Aesthetic contemplation. 🙂

Indeed. Talking is just sound heard as words. The body is the conductor of information, converting sound into meaningful communication unique to the human narrative that is the sense of I am talking. In essence, the body is not just a passive structure but an active high-speed conductor that transmits, processes, and acts upon information to maintain homeostasis.

Love = You + Infinity = Truth Inseparable. 🙂

😊

Dream bodies can never know their maker. It’d be like saying; consciousness created consciousness. There’s no such thing as a creator, which would imply limitation and lack, where there is none in the totality of everything. Once you think God is a noun, person, place, or thing, you separate yourself from it and immediately become a limited being.

If I love myself, I love you. Nice! 😊

The only absolute truth is that you are conscious. As far as I know, I’m fairly certain dead people can’t ponder what is consciousness. Everything else is just their linguistics. Thanks for your fairytale.

I don't know.

❤️ Beautiful high quality post. Show me a man who has finished with words so that I may have a word with him. LoL

Need arises, or it doesn’t, yes.

There’s no need to tell yourself you have freedom or are freedom, that’s the point.

But is a relative right and wrong ever absolutely right and wrong?

Because there’s a need to say it. Just as there’s always a demand for knowledge for the human mind.

The sense of “Who” is maintained by a stream of self-referencing thoughts that are based on past conditioning. To question ‘who’ is observing is a demand for knowledge, which can only exist as memory which is not applicable to the eternal present which is unknowing. The most common reference point is a thought-created centre referred to as “I” or “me” / or “self”. There is no such centre and those self-labels refer only to other thoughts, or to some aspect of experience. Asking ‘who’ leads to nowhere but here now. An endless loop. 🔁

There is no real entity called “I”

Same difference. Nothing is real.

Exactly. Seeing the elephant by reading the no room for two. Very Good.

Well said. 😎

@James123 You’ve got this. You have a profound understanding of this. Nice to read it here on this forum. 👏💯👍
