Karmic Channels: Preparation-thought, processing-thought, and fossilized thought-growth


Akin to adjusting the karmic channels that influence our chi, thought sets up the conditions for future understanding.

Thought, as much as it is necessary for the acquisition of knowledge, is used also in the preparation of the mind in anticipation of knowledge. In thinking, we are sowing the field of the psyche, planting seeds in some cases, and in other cases, letting the seeds fall where they may.

Knowledge can be called the growth that follows this preparation-thought, and thus a different kind of thought, the reaping, processing-thought, is what we use to register this development to knowledge (i.e., “fossilized thought-growth”).
