Mind Training

Everyone's mind is trained one way

or another, whether it's passively

trained by upbringing, by formal

education, by athletic or military 

discipline. The mind becomes trained

in these ways not only to perform tasks,

but also in how it perceives and

reacts to reality. None of the afore-

mentioned types of trainings train the

mind itself, the instrument itself, bare 

and naked, to see clearly. No Western

education including the highest 

intellectual trainings, shows the mind how

to simply just be. This kind of training of

the mind is solely the province of Buddhist

meditation, some of the Indian yogas

and some of the martial arts.

So, basically, 99% of humanity is going off

half cocked in the sense that humans

have abilities to accomplish incredible things,

but don't always act in accord with natural

order  because their minds aren't trained to 

see how things really are apart from the

mental constructs that are a side effect of 

the way their minds have actually been trained. 

GMOs are one example of this.

In short, the mind itself needs to be trained

through the clarifying discipline of meditation

to be able to see reality without bias or 

preconception. This is natural, organic morality,

the opposite of being a chemist for Dow and

making lots of money because one can and it 

makes one feel good and not considering the 

consequences of one's work.
