The Greek term Logos refers to a thought or concept. Contrary to common sense, conceptual thoughts are of a higher order than physical reality. The 'reality' perceived by our five senses is only an expression, or interpretation, of Logos forced upon us by the machine called the 'brain' - just as the Church have been forcing people to accept unconditionally its dogmatic interpretations of the Scriptures. This state of being force-fed interpretations is analogous to being confined to a prison. What separates most people from geniuses like Einstein is the ability and the determination to rebel against the bottlenecking 'Interpreter' in order to do one's own thinking/interpreting. Interpretation is like the rudder of the boat in the river of time - it determines the course of the future. If we continue to let the automated Interpreter hijack our minds, our lives, and history, continue to be nothing but puppet shows - amusing, perhaps, but never really meaningful. Without switching off the autopilot, all we'll ever do is the same patterns over and over again like stupid idiots. Pattern Recognition is the key to beating the hijackers of our minds. ~~~ Free Ur Mind ;0) __________________ sleep well beautiful ones __________________ http://www.geocities.com/renots2gizaplateu/home.html __________________ So your names Matthew P.S.???
