On the nature of a Idea

[Eric Meridiano <ericmeridiano@...>]

Hello
 
My name is Eric, another french man present on this exellent discussion group.
 
I have been reading the posts for quite a few months, started to practice step 
one.
 
I have a disturbing question about the nature of an idea.
 
Breathing of a idea for a start.
 
I do notice several layers in what we call a idea. First, the very sound ofit, 
the prononciation in one's mind. Then will come maybe the quality of it, the 
differents sensations it can produce (will that be the personal meaning we give 
it, according to our conditioning, education...?) and after, maybe, if lucky 
the actual meaning, or intention behind the word and sensations.
 
I find all to often reciting a sound but missing the actual idea beyond it in 
most of the practices. (Breathing, impregnation, mastery of thougth) andnot 
being able to relate to meaning as i maybe should in order to impregnate or 
create a significant change. (meditating upon peace and realising it is 
something not known to me, or is it?)
 
Am I aiming to far concerning thoses exercices? (as i realise it could takea 
lifetime to understand the meaning behind a word like Peace, or the multitudes 
layers of meaning).
 
 
Any help or comments will be greatly apreciated.
 
Eric
