Truth and Knowledge: Questions on Forms and Formlessness

What is seen which is not in me? What is heard if the meaning of it does not reside inside me? Where does the taste lie? In the object outside me or my senses are also made of that taste? What is touched? My own ego or an extension of it?

If I exist then the world exist for me. Otherwise there is void. What if I don't exist? And what if I do exist? Is there any Universe outside me? Formal reality is true or illusionary? These questions are perennial and everlasting. Many answers are offered, many speculations are projected, but who answers the questions? Where are the answers projected? There must be someone who is curious to know? It means ego exists. Does ego dwell in a form? Is there a single form? Form is real or it is nothing? Whether my senses are true to the reality? Or behind it some essence is hidden? Is there a dichotomy of Creator and created? Or creation is random, chaotic, unorganized, unfathomable, everlasting? Is there anything called science? Or it is merely a sign, a site to justify beliefs? Is there any answer if basic questions are not clear?

I find many answers, but not a single question. I find many sources of the information, but no sincerity to ask the questions, to remain with it, unless reality reveals in its complete dimensions. Fragmentary meditations are fake, illusionary, a process to hide the questions. No knowledge deserves the respect, if the discovery of truth is not attached to it.

Anything before me is unreal, then which future will deliver me the eternal truth? Past and future are memories, simply thoughts, which don't exist at the moment. Only reality is present. Everything is here and now. There are multiple forms, including 'I', are formed but also remain formless. Life exists in me, but also remains possible after me. My thoughts are simply the bundles of information. Behind the thoughts and intellect, everything reveals, which is not required to be interpreted or presupposed. Knowing too much is not a possible goal to achieve. It's unreal. Discovery starts with I and remains with I. Discoverer has a choice; to identify with form or formless. Formal identity is samsara and behind it, the consciousnesses is eternal, always already present, beyond the question. It is not a matter of belief to search out I. Without I, no question begins and no answer is offered. I exist for sure. And something exists cannot be conditioned at time and space. Time and space are the basic framework to experience the changing world. But precisely it is time which changes. It doesn't change anything. If I perceive me in the framework of time and space; I appear to be finite. Beyond it, I have always been infinite. Knowledge around me is formal, but the truth is changeless and eternal.

The Physical Basis of Conscious Life: A Synthesis of William James's Physiological Psychology

I Introduction: Bridging Physiology and Psychology William James, in his landmark work The Principles of Psychology, provides a foundational framework connecting the brain's physiological mechanisms to the purposive, selective, and unified nature of conscious mental life. This blog analyzes James’s synthesis, which grounds psychological phenomena in the material workings of the nervous system without reducing consciousness to a mere epiphenomenon. We will explore his hierarchical model of the brain, which evolves from simple reflex actions in the lower nerve centers to the complex, deliberative functions of the cerebrum. Key themes include the role of the cerebrum as an organ of foresight and prudence, the physiological mechanism of habit as the process by which experience physically imprints itself upon the brain’s plastic matter, and consciousness's essential function as a “selecting agency” that is causally efficacious in steering the organism toward its own interests.

Martin Heidegger's Deconstruction of the History of Ontology

I Introduction In the opening pages of his magnum opus, Being and Time, Martin Heidegger resurrects a question he argues has been buried for millennia, framing his entire project with an epigraph from Plato’s Sophist: “For manifestly you have long been aware of what you mean when you use the expression ‘being’. We, however, who used to think we understood it, have now become perplexed.” This is no mere academic exercise but a deliberate reawakening of what Heidegger argues is the most fundamental and, paradoxically, the most forgotten question in the history of Western thought. For Heidegger, a pervasive “forgetfulness of Being” has characterized philosophy since antiquity, where the initial, vibrant inquiry into what it means “to be” solidified into a series of unexamined dogmas. The question was not answered and then set aside; rather, it fell into obscurity, concealed by the very traditions that were supposed to preserve it. This blog argues that Heidegger's critical "dest...

Sterile Preoccupation: Towards Technocracy and Loss of Human

William Blake, Newton (1795 ) Roland Barthes reminds us, looks us back from his grave, and constantly warns us about the mythological character of human life, our society, and the relationship of human with the life-systems, whereas symbolic profusions outweigh rational contemplation, emotive appeals are strategically manoeuvred for the deceptive promises and considerations, rhetorical narratives are deployed to symbolize the virtue of unbounded eloquences, significances, and exemplifying extravagances of meanings, ritualistic and mechanical productions of narratives, and seductions towards efficacy as instrumentalised worldview have relegated human relationships to the status of mechanization and technocratizations. What is so significant about the mechanisation of thinking and ritualistic institutionalisation? If not the loss of humanistic elements in the human relationships and the relationships of human species from their nature, ecosystem, and the life-systems itself. What is so p...
