Fragments: Filters

Fragments: Filters

Just sharing some fragments of thought today, considering how our existing knowledge and worldview colour our perceptions.


That when we look for patterns and insight, we do so through the lens of our knowledge, culture, and experience. It is not a neutral filter.

That our perception of the new is contextualised by our experience of the old.

That synthesis is, itself, an act of reinterpretation.

That we are governed by biases, which may reassure us, whilst deluding us.

Yes! Such bias patterning of the mind and body conceals the free will to explore beyond the stuckness / frozen state. Perhaps exploring, knowing and loving, more fully understanding the other three states - flow, free and glow(radiant)states can reveal new insights. Happy Days! ???????? David
