How should a man live ideally?

Perhaps, man should not be aware of his own persona. I mean to express, that man should not be aware of his persona, and he should allow thoughts to come, as and when they come.

What is the nature of belief?

When a person believes, then does he believe completely? I mean to express, that belief is based on certain parameters of perception, and not on all parameters of perception. For example, if I believe that a certain writer is a good writer, then that is based on certain parameters. Can my belief about the writer's writing's change, if the writer's parameters of his writing's change, and he implements the changed parameters in his writings? I believe, that everyone will agree in the affirmative, including me. What is the difference between knowing and believing? When a person sees the colours of the chameleon change, then he is not in doubt about the colours of the chameleon previously seen. Or will he doubt his powers of sight? I would, doubt my powers of sight. Perhaps, others would use the difference in the perception of sight, to their advantage. After doubting my powers of sight, I would take the nature of the chameleon to be what it is, if I have observed the chameleon over a period of time. Is there anything that belongs in this world, that does not change like the chameleon? Am I not like the chameleon, that I want the world not to be like the chameleon?

Now, I come back to the question, what is the nature of belief? Why do we want the colours of the chameleon, not to change? What are the colours of the chameleon, which we do not want to see change, if at all? Because of these few colours, which we do not want to see change, we would rather, no colour of the chameleon change, even though we may like the colours, later. Perhaps, the nature of belief, is self gratification of our perceptions. If so, then how do we self gratify our perceptions? Our perception is like a machine, for utilization. The more we utilize the machine, the more we use perception, and the more it is gratified. If our perceptions are gratified, then what need is there to gratify them further? The nature of gratification is such, that gratification is not satisfied, by the experience of gratification. Gratification would like the experience to be gratified, further.

What is the nature of knowledge? When there is no need to gratify our perception, then that state is perhaps, called knowledge. When, we are delighted by our perception, but do not seek any more perception, then that state is knowledge.
