In actuality, all thought has at its core a root emotional energy that can be understood symbolically/sacramentally. In Eastern thought we're told that we are not our emotions, and that is very true to an extent. But what I'm saying is that all thought and opinion is rooted in an emotional energy..that we are essentially emotion. This makes sense, because what we seek is beingness, and beingness is something that is felt. No descriptive words can take place of the love you feel for someone, and it is that emotional realm that we are moving into and will create by focusing on love.
Really interesting post Icaro.
Are you saying, then, that emotions, at their purest and deepest level, synonymous with the primal distortions? That the second primal distortion of love and the third distortion of light could be considered emotions?
Quote:30.4 In your terms there is a great loss of mind complex due to the fact that much of the activity of a mental nature of which you are aware during the experience of this space/time continuum is as much of a surface illusion as is the chemical body complex.
In other terms nothing whatever of importance is lost; the character or, shall we say, pure distillation of emotions and biases or distortions and wisdoms, if you will, becoming obvious for the first time, shall we say; these pure emotions and wisdoms and bias/distortions being, for the most part, either ignored or underestimated during physical life experience.
I hadn't really highlighted "pure emotions" in this one before. Makes for fascinating consideration.
