in evolution, which adapts first? the mind? or the form?

Huh? In biological evolution, the genetics changes, which can change the functioning and form of the body. That, in turn, can affect the ability of the brain (if one exists) to process information (the mind).

that is obvious given the fact that the consciousness is eternal and the form is temporal.


forms, systems, arise and fall, the energy that creates them doesn't.


consciousness is an action. it isn't a form

consciousness is a state

The mind is based off of a form. Form has to come before the mind. Consciousness without the mind has to be proven and it could only be a type of energy and energy and form have always be linked. You can't have form without the energy to maintain it and you can't have energy without form to sustain it.

Really? Energy from distant sources seems to get here fine

How does it get here? Can it get here through a vacuum? Energy uses matter for creation and to move. Electricity is the movement of electrons, light is both energy and matter and sound requires both matter to create and sustain.

Light is a form of energy, not matter. Matter is made up of atoms. Light is actually electromagnetic radiation.

states of matter don't take an eternal form, a shape. the slower the vibration of the mass the more solid it looks but it doesn't cease to move; even if you can't see it.

State of being
being is a movement, an action. being doesn't cease to exist but the form, the shape you identify as being will.


look at self from prebirth to death and afterwards. the mind associates itself to form the longer it becomes conditioned to that form. even now you sometimes have disbelief at the form in the mirror.
