To this strategy the argument is opposed by our philosopher, that this would be no true solution, but only a postponement of the solution. For we should have to find yet another part of the mind to view the first observing part, and then another to observe this, and so on, endlessly. TO THIS STRATEGY THE ARGUMENT IS OPPOSED BY OUR PHILOSOPHER THAT THIS WOULD BE NO TRUE SOLUTION BUT ONLY A POSTPONEMENT OF THE SOLUTION FOR WE SHOULD HAVE TO FIND YET ANOTHER PART OF THE MIND TO VIEW THE FIRST OBSERVING PART AND THEN ANOTHER TO OBSERVE THIS AND SO ON ENDLESSLY
g those who trust in the mind. Much less can the “mind” know itself, the more so, because it is pervaded by the illusion that it truly knows, truly is. True knowledge of the “mind” comes, first, when the Spiritual Man, arising, stands detached, regarding the “mind” from above, with quiet eyes, and seeing it for the tangled web of psychic forces that it truly is. But the truth is divined long before it is clearly seen, and then begins the long battle of the “mind,” against the Real, the “mind” fighting doggedly, craftily, for its supremacy. 21. If the Mind be thought of as seen by another more inward Mind, then there would be an endless series of perceiving Minds, and a confusion of memories. One of the expedients by which the “mind” seeks to deny and thwart the Soul, when it feels that it is beginning to be circumvented and seen through, is to assert that this seeing is the work of a part of itself, one part observing the other, and thus leaving no need nor place for the Spiritual Man. RADICTIONS OF OPINION AMONG THOSE WHO TRUST IN THE MIND MUCH LESS CAN THE MIND KNOW ITSELF THE MORE SO BECAUSE IT IS PERVADED BY THE ILLUSION THAT IT TRULY KNOWS TRULY IS TRUE KNOWLEDGE OF THE MIND COMES FIRST WHEN THE SPIRITUAL MAN ARISING STANDS DETACHED REGARDING THE MIND FROM ABOVE WITH QUIET EYES AND SEEING IT FOR THE TANGLED WEB OF PSYCHIC FORCES THAT IT TRULY IS BUT THE TRUTH IS DIVINED LONG BEFORE IT IS CLEARLY SEEN AND THEN BEGINS THE LONG BATTLE OF THE MIND AGAINST THE REAL THE MIND FIGHTING DOGGEDLY CRAFTILY FOR ITS SUPREMACY SUTRA TWENTY ONE IF THE MIND BE THOUGHT OF AS SEEN BY ANOTHER MORE INWARD MIND THEN THERE WOULD BE AN ENDLESS SERIES OF PERCEIVING MINDS AND A CONFUSION OF MEMORIES ONE OF THE EXPEDIENTS BY WHICH THE MIND SEEKS TO DENY AND THWART THE SOUL WHEN IT FEELS THAT IT IS BEGINNING TO BE CIRCUMVENTED AND SEEN THROUGH IS TO ASSERT THAT THIS SEEING IS THE WORK OF A PART OF ITSELF ONE PART OBSERVING THE OTHER AND THUS LEAVING NO NEED NOR PLACE FOR THE SPIRITUAL MAN
