[!@#$%!]

^^oh yeah a. huxley (not thomas) advanced that notion in his peyote book

the brain as a valve to the large mind, not as the seat of the mind

some schools of zen have also a “big mind”theory, search it if curious

even if zen is not of the west it’s been in western culture for nearly a century now, maybe more if you’re jesuit

but anyway this “big mind” business is entirely western

well actually the jungians too... the whole ego/self thing

where does one draw the east/west line

OOH I FORGOT THE DENISOVICH. SORRY.
