Ken says, "yes," big mind does have intentionality. Personally speaking, isn't the jury still out on this one? Does big mind really have intentionality? And, if so, doesn't this mean that the myth of the given is now no longer just a myth (except in minds of the postmodernists)?
This clip left me wondering if what he said at the beginning was consistent with what was said toward the end. This in no way challenges what he said, but it really sounded like Ken said that Big Mind has intentionality...sometimes; that is, it can be the case when someone hangs onto an emotion long enough to allow it to, in a way, take on a life of its own. When this happens, what was initially a gross emotional event can evolve into a subtle and even a causal emotional one.
The young, well-spoken woman whose inquiry was logically and sequentially spot-on, asked if an emotional event can manifest at the gross level of reality. Ken, in turn, answered her by saying that emotions can have subtle and causal effects when they are managed through an integral life practice.
My own interpretation of the question might've been a bit different from Ken's...maybe not. And if this is far afield from its original author's intent then maybe she could set me straight for having over-extended my liberty of interpretation. In any case, just as it seemed that this dialogue might develop into something that is truly interesting and original, what transpired was yet another analysis of how an emotion can transmute into the subtle and the causal realm. However, what might have been said along with the conventional integral explanation, would be something that explains how an emotional state can manifest in the gross-phenomenal world of external reality. In my opinion, a more inclusive and comprehensive explanation would have discussed how our emotional states can manifest in the phenomenal world, depending on the intensity and the intention of the emotion in question.
When this happens, is this when the emotional state enters into the causal?
And when this emotional state enters into the causal, can this have objective, phenomenological effects?
Perhaps Ken's answer to this question is the generalized version of a more detailed exploration.
The yoga of light and sound is really only one event. It's the frequency of their vibrations that is different.
