From light 2

We are from light but live in a material world. We can look in two different directions, towards matter or towards light. For survival we look to the material world. But life comes from light.
The mind capacity of human beings used to be very small. It had to be used for the most essential, survival and reproduction.
These days however, the mind capacity is much bigger. And society is more intelligent than it used to be. As individuals we do not have to solve all problems, as so many others have solved so many problems for us.
So we do not have to fixate on the immediate material factors all life. We can open up our awareness and see and learn more. We can even search for the light.

The opposite 2

The material reality is comparatively difficult to change. It used to be hard work to move mountains and it is complicated to change the production of cars from big energy consuming objects to light, environment friendly things.
This material slowness has given stability to our life and values.
In a mind based reality we do not have this stabilising factor. In mind thoughts and feelings can move with the speed of light. Mind processes are optical phenomenon. Light play, that is.
So we need some new kind of stabilising factor, or else we end up in anarchy and self induced confusion.
The answer to this new need is truth. Truth is stable. We can rely on truth.
If we - in the spirit of Socrates - can see the difference between truth and non truth, we can roam around freely in the cosmic space of mind, investigating and enjoying everything.
