A Shower Thought About Life Being A Maze

[Rinne]

What if like life is like a maze right. There are many traps in the maze right. What if we are navigating thru this maze in our neurons. The brain. When you look at the brain doesnt it resemble the image of a maze? When we are engage in bad habits bad mindsets and stuff isnt that nothing but strengthening certain neurons thus falling into a trap. 

This is a low quality thread i understand but just an interesting idea i wanted to share.

@Rinne really does look like a maze, given you that.

Interesting observation, never made that connection. I think you found a good visual metaphor for escaping the mind, or attachment to thoughts/beliefs. 

[Yog]

hah, same here, never made the visual connection.

When I hear the phrase, this is the image that almost always pops into mind. I also like it how there are multiple people inside, not just one.

The notion that you have a brain is itself the maze of your mind.

To escape the maze is to realize it never existed other than in your imagination.

When you think, "This is caused by the brain", that's you trapping yourself in the maze. The maze of materialism.

But Leo(!), the brain exists as imagination so it's real; it doesn't matter how it exists.

It doesn't matter if "the brain" is imagined. Imagined or not, there is a brain... as imagination or not.
