And the sun rises in the east. East of Eden is where Steinbeck ends by Adam raising his hand and whispering the single word timshel. 'Timshel' by Mumford & Sons is something I should try singing to my wife.

Besides the fake attempt at stream of consciousness I could not come up with any better critique. The point being, to quote Dan Dennet, "It's very hard to change people's mind on something like consciousness... ..the reason for that is everybody's an expert on consciousness. If you work on climate change, you might have a strongly held opinion. You don't claim that you're an expert. But when it comes to consciousness, everybody's an expert. Simply by being conscious, we know all about this. We talk about consciousness with amazing confidence.”

I guess it is our innate right to talk kudos about hope, faith, transcendence, consciousness, dharma and Greg.

Probably a misguided analogy that I mistook this article for; just by being a Nepali, I feel I am an expert in Development Economics. I do not have a strongly held opinion on how my country should be developed, I have an expert opinion.

Hope this doesn't help.
