    Mark and all Focusers:

    Mark said on 22-02-05:
    If emotions are biological, and desire is an emotion, then what dmb is
    saying here amounts to, 'the ego is biological patterns of values.'
    Buddhists may agree; the ego is Monkey mind.

    Mark said on 22-03-05:
    Biological patterns are quite real in the MoQ. If the ego is biological in
    nature, which then dominate social patterns for their own end, 'the trap' is

    better understood. Understanding is a valuable step toward escape.

    dmb says on 25-03-05:
    If emotions and egos were biological then we would be able to detect them
    with scientific instruments, but we can't, so they aren't. If you can show a
    picture of an ego or of anger, or show it to me in a microscope then I might
    buy it. This is why I think emotions have to be categorized at the social
    level, at least.
