Re: Lost the way?

Dear Rawn,

Thanks for your reply. I've been mulling it over and everything 
which you wrote makes sense to me. The only thing which I am not 
entirely clear on is this sentence:

>>Consider this: every physical necessity has an underlying mental 
necessity.<< 

When I first read it I thought 'oh yeah, that makes sense', but then 
when I really took the time to consider it, I was not sure I knew 
exactly what you meant. Firstly, I am assuming that you are using 
the word 'mental' in a Bardonian way, is that correct? If so, I 
cannot quite understand what you are saying. Would it be possible to 
give an example? I could have understood if you had said that every 
physical necessity has an underlying mental *cause*... Do you mean 
that there is a mental equivalent for every physical necessity? If 
that' the case, I tried to think it through using some examples of 
physical necessities, such as sleep. What would the underlying 
mental necessity of drinking water be, for example? I'd appreciate 
any further explanations on this topic that you could give.

Thanks,

Martin
