Arcturus Descending
I will confess up front that I am going to be exploring from many different angles . . .
If I am to follow the fluidic notion that WendyDarling presents and I am not mistaken it seems as though there are two votes pertaining to a very similar concept.
My question to you >> does the emotion start outside of us? Be cautioned it is a trick question - so do not think too hard to answer.
But there are also times when we are quite aware of what has stimulated our emotions. We can put a name to these catalysts and describe why it is we are feeling them.
But again, perhaps what you are saying is that there are times when emotions crop up as a result of events which to us have no meaning. We can find no explanation for - as in terrorist acts. Of course, after the fact we can kind of understand the whys and the wherefores - the only thing is that these things make no sense to us.
To say that we are at times aware does make sense to me >> further the stimulus must always be a result of something that originated in the surrounding universe. Can you provide me an example of an event that has taken place in your life that has originated outside of your consciousness that has made you feel emotionally affected - I suggest all events.
As mentioned in my sig - - - the point remains that you can’t get at that meaning before grasping the surface meaning, which is to say there is always meaning.
You need to first grasp the surface of what I am pointing at - good luck . . .
