The author has very distinctly shown the origin of conscience based on the gradual development of suffering.

Very Happy well written article.

Is clarity simply recognizing the reflection/suffering loop, and choosing not to identify with it? How does wisdom relate to intelligence? It's not simply a subset of intelligence. Like suffering or compassion, wisdom is an experience, a state of mind, that includes clarity.

Beautifully put, you're already anticipating where the next essay is headed!

Yes, clarity begins when we recognize the loop of reflection and suffering without becoming it.

And you're right: wisdom isn’t merely a subset of intelligence. It's a state. It arises when discernment deepens through experience.

More soon!
