Spinoza & mind - a quick thought


the mind as one conception of a thing –

the body as another

goes to –

the mind as one description of a thing –

the body as another

the thing independent of description is?

unknown

as to the mind –

any account –

a description of – itself?

that would be –

a description – of a description

so what is the ‘object’ here?

a description

and the subject is –

a description

description of description

the body –

another description –

of that which –

independent of description –

is unknown

so basically we begin with description –

description of the unknown

and what we operate with – is description –

what we create –

is description

what we describe –

is description

‘knowing’ then –

is describing

the ‘mind’ – a noun –

for the verb
