On the surface, intent seems to show up in the human social domain relating to potential action, choice and 'free will'. Going deeper, biological life seems to just move and adapt on its own without intent e.g. hair & nails, grow, heart beats, lungs breathe, plants grow etc. Forces of it-not it is interacting, changing living-dying.
What is intent?
Where does intent arise from?
What is the nature of intent?
What is it to intend to become conscious?
What is it to focus solely on self-survival gratifications? What are the consequences?
I'll post a communication if I come up with something. Back in about a week.
Interested to hear from others what they come up with 😊
