A Two Part Blind Perspective

As mentioned in the video, fable of eight blind men and an elephant along with Sally Tailor’s dyslexia I have a two-part perspective to share.

Part1

8 Blind Men = Over-Thinking

Elephant = Many things like, an obstacle happiness; a profound question such as; (1) What is reality? (2) What is life? (3) Who am I? (4) What is the greater good?
The overthinking mind is surround the elephant from as many perspectives as possible in an attempt to ascertain its nature.

Part2

Could humanity’s problem arises from a form of collective mental dyslexia? Misunderstanding compounded by the numbers.

Could overthinking/ many-thinking be an effort within to correct the dyslexia? Could it be that the collective mind is capable rewiring itself like the body heals a wound?

Could what looks like irrational behavior be an indication of the process the collective consciousness goes through in rewiring itself towards wholeness or dare I say Avalon?

Addendum and/ or part3 depending how you look at it.


It’s intriguing that around the 8:22 mark Sally says she “...needed more blind men and thus Consensus is formed. I created my own elephant.”

Does that mean the eight blind men form the elephant? That would suggest the mind is an obstacle to itself based on a prior perspective.

Another perspective would be to think of the elephant as art. All the blind men (everyone/ everything) creates the art (everything/ everyone) and the art (everything/ everyone) creates the eight blind men (everyone/ everything).

P.s.

".....where science and spirituality meet"

Where the eight blind men meet the elephant?
