Listener question: 

Can you talk a bit about how the mind sometimes has information? A common theme I hear in some of the podcasts is that "the mind doesn't  know" and that's linked to the fact that the mind is the brain creating a self identity at the same time there is intelligence moving the body and creating action.

Sometimes it seems the mind brings an idea forward, and while it may have layers of selfing suc ahs "is this a mistake, will someone be upset, what will they think of me, etc." there is a thread of information in whatever idea is coming forward. For example, I facilitated a first meeting with a new team yesterday and the behavior that showed up was rushing and interrupting people. While it was a productive meeting, the mind brought forward a preference of not wanting to do it that way because it can lead to folks feeling shut out. This has ingredients of selfing, and also useful information of a preference. It was all afterwards, so in that case "imagined" and this still seems useful. 

Thank you!
