Under-standing

[jnanacandra]

Have you ever experienced the phenomenon where you finally understand some glorious concept, and you find yourself using the same words to describe it to others that others fruitlessly used to describe it to you before you had that flash of comprehension? Words do not bring understanding; understanding brings understanding. Understanding - standing

Trying to Stand Tall...and Total/Complete

Your art helps people increase understanding. It facilitates the flash of "getting it" by shining light on pathways not always easily seen, and beckoning like a beacon to look further and deeper within & without us.

This is what (IMHO) art is about 'n' for. It helps to articulate glorious concepts where words alone do not always suffice. Yes, words can also be art and do this, too. Different strokes for different folks, ya' know.

This post reminds me of one of my fave quotes: "There are mirrors for the face, but the only mirror for the spirit is wise self-reflection." - Baltesar Gracian (#89)

Thanks for sharing your good thinkie-thoughts.

Words do not bring understanding; understanding brings understanding.

To understand recursion, you have to first understand recursion.
