Can you see what a man is thinking in his mind?
Man has mind and body. His physical body is substantial and visible. You can see how tall one is, how heavy or light he is, if he or she is handsome or beautiful, fat or slim, and the like.
The way man cloth or dress himself may show or describe his form and style, perhaps his personality as well. But how about man's mind? Can you see man's mind?
The picture on the side is like fooprints in the sand. These are shadows in the sand. But on what is the picture of man's face, this is just drawn. One maybe sad, one maybe happy, but we don't exactly know.
In like manner, even if you see the face of a man, what is in his mind is not seen but invisible to your eyes.
Hence, man is composed of visible and invisible beings.
You may see him physically as a man or woman. But you will be surprised one day that he is but gay. Have you heard Judie Foster who just reveal her personality as a lesbian with a 19-year of relationship with a female film producer?
Well, man shapes his life. It is up to him if he includes his Origin or Creator in his life. That is his free-will in this democratic world.
When I push my kids to study and they complain on the difficulty they have in their homeworks, I need to refresh them again and again that they have to be patient on it, slow down but continue as it if for their own life and future. That when they go to high school and they still dont know much of the kanji, then they will be left behind. This educational shaping may not be seen in their physical body directly. But to mold and educate them, will help them coordinate their mind and body.
Once they one has enough education, value-formation, I think the way his body moves and his actions will manifest what is there in his invisible mind.
The picture above is only a literal shaping of the face of the persons' shadows. But man should reflect the real he or she in his own image and likeness. This is also called personality development of a person.
A little discussion for the day and reflection from the nice picture.
