From Nostalgia to Insight

Image
 Any casual attempt to look at the past, sparked by a specific sensory input, brings up certain memories that are evoked, memories you can visualize in clear, vivid detail, accompanied by an intoxicating, bittersweet feeling that they exude. These tinted memories are as strong as they seem because they’re packed with unprocessed emotional content. Because of their volatile nature, they don’t just sit there; they slowly seep into the subconscious, and slowly but steadily, they grow more salient, triggering cognitive biases. The contents of the memory, highlighted by the mind’s focus, pull you in, so you end up chasing the emotional impact left behind by the memory after its occurrence. Now that the mind is cognitively biased, tuned to scan the variables in your environment for those little triggers that resemble the memory, it tries to look for, recognize, find, and make patterns like the ones that happened back then in the memory.

It's a filter that governs how we consume (ingesting complex combinations of sensory data), express (releasing concoctions of emotional data), and create (offering ourselves as a medium to an idea, equipped with the skills for its fruition). Ideas are like the sentient inhabitants of this conscious ocean.  To paraphrase David Lynch, consciousness is the ocean, and ideas are the fish. This exp...

The following is an excerpt from an investigatory project, understanding the relevance of philosophy and its insight into zoomers Across this investigatory project, in order to study the impact of philosophy, we'll broadly categorize the perception of the subject from a mental and physical basis. The mental quarters are the thoughts, ideas, ideologies, and opinions gathered over time in a person or can also be stated as how self-aware, conscious, self introspective the person is; and the physical realm is the one which we all are familiar with and has interaction on a daily basis, its science and logic-oriented (conclusivity) side of things.  In a way, that is what the whole philosophical province is directing its objective towards; The ability to construct, observe, understand, analyze, and the mental fortitude of one's own mind. Does the subject's mental quarters determine their physical actualities or vice-versa? The more subjective and opinionated the dialogue the more ...
