"I still do not see Master, why the Mind cannot just take the whole of Reality, in order to understand it, instead of this bother to digitalise/analogise/dig/an/ etc.?"
"But don't you see, it would mean having an exact-, perfect-,
copy of Reality IN Mind. That is impossible. In its stead, one
can only have a MODEL of Reality, an extract, a clumsy rough.
Even then, COMPARISON remains impossible without cutting the model into parts.
This an/dig/an makes the comparison possible, but
also ATTENTION, being occupied with 'a' part of Reality, a choice
phenomenon. It makes choice possible, and classification, and
standardisation, symbolisation, all of which are only synonyms
for Ideation. Without this basic trickery of an/dig/an/dig/ etc.
we simply could not 'Think', therefore we would not even have a
housing, a body for a Mind, we just would not BE alive."
