The principle of thinking expressed through art.
This compilation of music and free verse expresses the principle of thinking through art. All individuals who demonstrate real thinking will relate to the words “questioning facts”, “connecting them all” and “the judging mallet”. Conceptual relatedness that binds all facts and concepts together in a sound logical manner to reach a definite conclusion is core to the thinking attitude. It entails a complete process which reaches a dispassionate conclusion, that is, a level-headed final judgment.
THINKING
Thinking is the connecting of the content of ideas with a concept. Thinking is concerned with the law bound aspects of events which possess general validity. Thinking does not consider the actual object as a whole, but only that part of it which has been singled out for rational observation. It only takes into account what is merely posited. Thinking is oriented towards the peculiarities and its principles inherent in positable objects. For example, Jung discovered and conceptualised the four psychological functions, thinking, feeling, sensation and intuition. To concretise, Jung wanted to know how thinking works. He wanted to understand and establish the peculiarities of thinking in rational terms. The result of the process in question is Jung’s explanation of the peculiarities of thinking and its principles, presented in the form of a well-defined concept. Jung’s concept of thinking anchors the peculiarities of thinking and its principles in space and time, thereby establishing its general validity. Thinking explains the peculiarities of a selected object with a particular form that remains constant in principle under varying conditions.
