Sensation

Rewrite. Or relearn how you know what the world is and your ideas of it through sensations for a time rather than ideas. This is the goal in the practice of meditation but this state can be achieved in walking awake life. Its just a matter of whether you are concentrating or not and what you are concentrating on. What forms and names you give god, the universe, this world and all its people? Are they solid things which move with a mechanistic animation? Well we invented the machine, we are trying to explain an idea we formed with another idea we formed. The only difference is the second idea which would be the machine is a solid object which we can understand is real without much thinking. The reason for that is you can feel it, you can see it, smell it, tastes it and hear it. You know it is real because you can sense it. Remember what I said before, your senses are your gateway into the world. Or rather they are your world. Trusting the information they give you versus the knowledge given to you is very liberating and can cure up a number of nasty mind viruses. The example of the machine being a revolving door of trying to explain one sensation with another is a logical whirlpool that goes nowhere. Its a snake that eats its own tail. Seeing this will allow you to see when speaking with other people or hearing the ideas they speak that you are being handed what is essentially a tangled ball of yarn. This tangled up idea fascinates you. So you have to figure it out and surely you must take the challenge and try. This is pointless because when you finally untangle the thing and figure it out you realize its just a long string, and you could see that by just looking at it in its tangled form.
