Welcome to The Diner!
Sit at the counter of our virtual diner and let us serve you a slice of mental pie! It’ll go good with a cup of coffee, then you get your refreshed self back to the fray with a few new beautiful thoughts to think.
Today’s episode is about how excessive rationalism can sometimes lead to irrationality. It’s a difficult concept for us westerners who are used to rationalism as the answer for everything, after all, what higher authority is there than the mind?
Some ideas to ponder:
How do emotions differ from the heart?
What does it mean to be excessively rational? Why might that be a problem sometimes?
Take time to notice where your thoughts are your ultimate authority when perhaps they ought not to be. Is this a problem? Is it sometimes ok?
