Excerpt:"Made of skin, mind thinks like skin. It is a fact of human embryonic development that CNS (central nervous system), the seat of human intelligence, begins as nothing more than involution (envagination) of ectoderm. The ectoderm enfolds onto itself (through a process called neural tubing) and becomes centralized, externally, as a brain, and, internally, as a mind. The first and foremost job of any skin is to separate the inner from the outer, the self from the other. The skin divides and so do we. Made of skin, we mind dualistically and dichotomously. Each mind, like a pair of scissors, divides the Oneness of the Universe in half (initially into "self' and "other") and then in half again and again and again. This Skinthink is inevitable.""Skin is hardware.Skinthink and Kinthink are software.The former is divisive. The latter is unifying.Instead of scratching our heads about how to remedy the ills of the society at a level of software, we'd do well to prevent these ills through generous developmental touch at a level of hardware."About the Author:Pavel G.
