Concepts unimaginable to humans
    #7345388 - 08/28/07 04:43 PM (16 years, 6 months ago)

It seems likely to me that just as there are concepts, ideas etc that a dog for example is incapable of comprehending, there are concepts and processes that are too complex for a human mind to even imagine. It seems arrogant of us to assume that the universe is limited to things we are capable of understanding. Thoughts?

It is quite likely that humans are the only conceptually oriented animals on Earth. To think in concepts requires objective thought. This is a quality mostly missing from the other animals.

"A warrior is a hunter. He calculates everything. That's control. Once his calculations are over, he acts. He lets go. That's abandon. A warrior is not a leaf at the mercy of the wind. No one can push him; no one can make him do things against himself or against his better judgment. A warrior is tuned to survive, and he survives in the best of all possible fashions." ― Carlos Castaneda
