Curiosity Dissected - (3975)

An element of curiosity is not knowing yet... But it already knows something that is for sure, but it hasn't had the full experience yet.


Within curiosity is already a desire. There is already some kind of projection as subtle as it may be.


There is a kind of fascination there that lures, that brings one closer and closer. 




Out of curiosity one may even forget one's own safety and well being. That is the typical element of curiosity that it is very hypnotic, we disregard danger many times for its satisfaction.


The above observation tells us many interesting things. One is that it is indeed a "I", that we identify with, and one that we forget our Being or ourselves with. We can be sure it is an "I" because we forget ourselves, only an ego makes us to forget ourselves. The proof that we forget ourselves is reflected in how we so readily overlook the dangers involved. Two, that if there is danger it can't be good. Curiosity takes us into danger, so it is not very conscious.


There are some people that are not so curious and there are some that are even more curious still. Some star signs are more curious than others. 


It is a habit of the mind. One that blends in well with that nature of the mind that always looks for distraction and something new. Often we feel curious about something new. "I'm curious to just try it we say"!


The question to ask is do we need to know or experience what curiosity is looking for? That is the question isn't it? What is the answer? Often it is no! Because facts speak we are worse for wear afterwards.


End (3975).
