Singapore Q&A 21 November 2022 (55:52-56:40)
It is good to learn the seeing and thinking process. Whenever we see something, the mind thinks about it.
Seeing and thinking are totally different.
I look at the flower bouquet in the Dhamma Hall and seeing the flowers, the mind thinks that they are beautiful.
That shocked me because the flowers are not beautiful; it’s just the mind thinking that the flowers are beautiful.
It’s funny because the flowers are not beautiful but the mind says that they are beautiful. These two processes are totally different, but people combine the two and say that the flowers are beautiful.
