RE: Hello fellow Steemians! First Philosophy blog - The relationship between mind and matter.
Hi Travis, nice writing though I don't agree with some of it.
To me the Observer is the Observed. Then the Next question: What is it that you observe? <3
Hi nikaj, thank you I really enjoyed writing it that was kind of its own reward:) The observer as the observed reminds me of a limerick by a philosopher I really like Alan W. Watts;
“There was a young man who said though, it seems that I know that I know, but what I would like to see is the I that knows me when I know that I know that I know.”
Still I must agree the question you pose is quite hard to answer. The observer as the observed is like a knife that cuts itself or a fire that burns itself or a mirror that reflects itself. Arhg this is not a satisfying answer either, I will think about this some more!:) Thanks for your reply<3
