Now, let us return the article of the acting intelligence by Bala Salaam. And, as we read this, try to connect to the author’s thought and to his feeling. But specially, try to connect to the thought and feeling behind why he is expressing this to you.
The Acting Intelligence
I will explain by way of an illustration. We observe that in every deed perform in the world, they adheres and remains in that deed, the very mind which performed it. So that in the table, we sense the mindful craft of the carpenter and his command of his craft, whether great or small.
For at the time of his work, he evaluated it with his knowledge and intelligence. So that one who examines that deed and thinks about the mind concealed there in, realizes that it is from its inception bound up with the mind that made it. That is they are in fact, unified.
We can see in everything that appears in this world that there is a thought behind it. It simply does not arise out of nothing. There is in the world that we see before us, definitely craftsman behind the objects. And, we know from this physical example that the intention, that is the quality of the work, the care, what it is that was intended for our use can be felt, even in a simplest things. It is what we called Quality.
It is a sensation, not that this is an expensive or simply a beautiful object, but if you really look at it, what you are sensing is the intention behind that thing. The quality of the mind, the quality of the desire to give, an object or a circumstance of beauty to us, and we may look at a physical object and perhaps, we will be blinded by its pay quality. But, to the degree that we desire to feel and know and become like that thing behind it that is I want to know what my friends experience was.
I want to know what the artist meant by this. I want to feel the message that is really intended it this. If I just take the object as it is, I cannot understand anything. But if I look at the object, I can feel the mind of the artist, of the craftsman.
