Changes in Perspective on Life by Including Manomaya Kaya in One’s Worldview.
uccheda ditthi
- Genetics provides an explanation that the origin of certain similarities observed between different individuals (especially parent and child) lies in the material that mediates between them.
- Evolution theory explains the diversity of species through the acquisition and loss of genetic traits.
- Evolutionary psychology views changes in material structure as the origin of mental phenomena.
- Biology regards the cell as the smallest unit of life.
- These four fields naturally seek the origin of biological structures in matter.
- As a logical result, they assume the existence of the first cell(LUCA).
- But, it does not have any evidence!
- As a logical result, they assume the existence of the first cell(LUCA).
- All four follow the notion that ‘matter precedes mind,’ which is uccheda ditthi.
mundane samma ditthi
- Establishing mundane samma ditthi involves escaping this one-sided view.
- This is achieved through accepting the concept of manomaya kaya.
- How does manomaya kaya help us understand the phenomenon of life?
- Genetic phenomena between parents and children are the result of two individual lifestreams with similar gati forming a specific relationship.
- Therefore, there is no need for a material substance to transmit the structure of their similarities.
- The distinction between species is determined by the level of mind, not by material structure (genetic traits).
- The physical form changes according to the level of mind.
- Hence, the manifestation of a species should be seen as a manifestation of conditions rather than speciation.
- Mental phenomena are the origin of changes in material structure.
- This directly opposes evolutionary psychology.
- Evolutionary psychology explains selfishness as the core motivation for realizing all other virtues, suggesting that even empathy is merely a tool for passing on genes.
- However, in reality, virtues merely have the incidental effect of helping the species survive longer.
- Evolutionary psychology explains selfishness as the core motivation for realizing all other virtues, suggesting that even empathy is merely a tool for passing on genes.
