One mind
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
One mind is a metaphysical object used by many teachers and books in the New Thought Movement to identify the concept of a mental connection that transcends and encompasses individual minds.
This object has been expanded through a work in progress on a website which utilizes a Greek word Hyponoesis to define it without the ambiguities which are in current usage throughout a multitude of internet web references. The work is in a separate domain where many essays can be read which expand the object into a complete philosophy which is based on German idealism.
The non-physical description of one mind as distinguished from ordinary mind is elaborated below by copyright definitions extracted from the website on Hyponoesis:
"One Mind
A synonymous term for Universal Mind (Hyponoesis), emphasizing its unity and indivisibility.
Ordinary Mind
As the term suggests, ordinary mind means the average mentality that is given naturally to every human being. In other words, the common structure or patterns of every human mind. In contrast, an extra-ordinary mind is a mind that is determined by higher forms of thought, such as philosophical thought. Whenever we use our mind to some ends that transcend the disposition of the natural mind or defy the mere evolutionary purposes such as being an instrument for survival, we overcome the intrinsic limitation of the ordinary mind and in pure thinking expand our ordinary mind to an extra-ordinary mind."
