All subjects belong to the subtle mind and thinking

Sri Aurobindo says neither the sun nor the earth move. It is only changes in our consciousness that give the appearance of movement. No man can become a thinker of any significance without entering the subtle thought. All subjects such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, history, literature, economics, etc. in their higher reaches belong to the subtle mind and thinking.

Physical people are incapable of subtlety. For a scientific idea or any idea to reach them, it must be converted by technology into a product or converted by custom into a social usage. Otherwise, the physical man is alien to it. That is the rationale of worship. To him, worship, rituals, ceremonies are real, not philosophy, theory or Idea.

As it is essential to think in subtle thoughts to become a thinker, it is essential to enter the causal plane to fully realise Supermind ~ Consciousness. The physical mind sees the sun going around the earth; the subtle mind understands the earth going around the sun; Consciousness an the causal level sees no movement.

To appreciate the idea of Heraclitus subtle thought is called for. War is abhorrent to the physical mind. In the subtle mind, war reveals as a process that hastens human progress. The killings, sufferings, devastations of the physical mind are not so to the subtle thought which understands them as a necessary beneficial process of swift movement. Posted by Yasmine at 11:09 PM
