Thinking (with)in and (with)out the brain .. feedback?

Thinking (with)in and (with)out the brain .. feedback?

whatever have driven me .. to postulate such thing ..


"The human brain's understanding of reality, has an uncanny capability to provide solutions that no language techniques can match. This is because it works in the same way nature works. What drives nature is dictated by chaos, and the same goes for the brain. Built out of the same blueprint. It works in ways that the conscious mind can not fathom, and unable to follow. To talk about gaining knowledge of what underlies the intricate fabric of nature, this can only be revealed by utilising the intuitive powers of the human brain. All knowledge that exists is already there and our brain knows 'where'. We should let our brain to take us there. Each individual has this knowledge within its grasp. Let our brain guide us."

"It implies that, as Whorf and Saussure claimed, languages are semantically closed, or very nearly so."

"It implies that, as Whorf and Saussure claimed, languages are semantically closed, or very nearly so."

.. semantically closed .. a quite intriguing assumption .. or precept .. if it could be called that .. but what someone would call it .. its significance goes beyond .. semantic considerations .. it is what .. brings into my mind about the nature ..of the worlds .. the realities that people construct and live in .. which goes hand-in hand with what is mentioned .. in that treatise

"And it tells that the relation between mind and reality is one of intersubjectivity: minds create a reality by sharing an appropriate type of belief system, and then they live in the reality which they create."

.. there are profound .. revelations in that work of Chaotic Logic .. too many to deal with in a planned, rational manner .. and since such an approach doesn't suit me .. embracing my own personal attribute of chaotic logic .. rather chaotic logic's personally added attribute .. equated with taking hold of the spur of the moment .. or being in the hold of the spur of the moment .. let the concepts develop themselves .. instead of assume a sort of prominence of the concepts ..over the self ..

Ben Goertzel's work puts the concepts in an organised manner ..
