The Function of Thought: Generating Meaning¿ Thought interprets what we perceive and generates meaning. The meaning disposes us to act. We act one way towards someone we trust and another way towards someone we don't. Meaning gives the impression that we know what we are looking at - but do we truly understand how meaning is being generated? The Function of Thought: Generating Meaning brings together three penetrating inquiries into the nature of thought and its impact on perception and behaviour:The Process of Thought: Limited by Knowledge The Action of Thought: Understanding and Responding The Problems with Thought: Thinking False This combined volume reveals how thought arises from limited knowledge, inserts meaning into every experience, and presents its interpretations as truth. We do not respond to life directly - we respond to the meanings thought gives it. These meanings, formed by memory and driven by the search for security, become the unseen lens through which we live. What you'll explore:Why thought is always rooted in the known How behaviour is shaped by the silent meanings embedded in memory Why we mistake imagination for fact, and interpretation for understanding How thought presents partial knowledge as complete truth Why thought cannot solve the confusion it creates How understanding the movement of thought is itself a transformation This book is a direct examination of the movement of thinking - from its origins in perception to its projections of reality. Through careful observation, the false can be seen as false - and in that seeing, thought begins to function with clarity and coherence. For readers of J. Krishnamurti, David Bohm, or anyone deeply questioning the authority of thought, The Function of Thought offers a radical inquiry into how meaning is generated - and how awareness of this process opens the door to freedom from illusion.
