And it doesn't change the "spiritual"— for want of a better term—aspects of your inner being, that many dismiss due to attachments of this physical realm. Attachment to the physical, is all about fear and desperation, and brings forth the conflict and suffering that is perpetuated onto the billions of lives living on this planet. It is after all impermanent, so what is a physical fact anyway, perhaps just a construct of the ego mind? Our beliefs and so-called facts come from this mind and how is that physical? Your mind is your brain functioning in particular ways. And yes, facts are impermanent. Your mind is not your conscious awareness. This goes way beyond the ego mind. The brain functions the motor responses in our "physical" body and caches the experiences and memories within that physical experience. But what are these experiences and memories? When you don't think of something or someone, does it or do they even exist? Yes, facts and knowledge provide us with the ego ability to achieve and move forward, but this is all just an impermanent transition phase. You are forever, our bodies and memories aren't. |
