Trialogue On Images Sari: I'll give you an example of what Finnish language is like: Krishnamurti's book "Freedom from the known" has a name "Ajattelun tuolle puolen" in Finland. Are you free from your image of my name now? Saumen: Ah, but now perhaps another image replaces the old one! :-)) Bruce: Yes, inevitably -- all we have in this wordy venue is the images these words evoke. Better to have no assumptions at all -- enjoy the imagery for what it is: the idle, creative gossip of thought. More often than not it has little or nothing to do with the entity with which we associate it. Sari: I have to agree with you. Better no assumptions at all indeed. But let me ask you a question: don't you have any assumptions or images of the posters here? Bruce: Indeed, I do have them -- I just see them as they are: two-dimensional crayon drawings that aren't even close to photographic, let alone accurate enough to warrant taking them seriously. They're always going to be there, Sari, that's the way thought works -- we needn't, however, harbor and nurture them until they perceptually displace the actual entities they attempt to depict, thats the classic error of mistaking the vaguest of guessed-at menus for real food.
