Mindful consciousness design centre

It seems like such a mouthful and from completely different ways of life: Buddhism and capitalism.  Still, it occured to me recently that they share a very unique and powerfull process.  Now design centre, commonly referred to as design thinking or human centred design, it`s a fairly recent methodology, in which any product or service, gets "manufactured" by means of a varied composition of design tools , available or purposedly created, and structured specifically to a unique context, by a team of specialists that come together from different backgrounds, in order to achieve novelty, that provides market leverage or completely creates the market, for identified consumer necesities.  Ergo, profitable equity to the company`s shareholders. A succesful practice that`s becoming the standard of globalized bussines. And thus encouraging an evolution of every industry sector to its very core: their human resource.

To detach yourself from desire, and you`ll find you already have everything that you need. A rule of thumb to this post's counterpart, it would appear.  A belief system, spawned by the achievement of enlightenment of Gautama Buda.  The discipline that has been around for centuries, predominantly in lower asia, but now spreading quickly into the west.  The Buda said "A mind unruffled by the vagaries of fortune, of sorrow freed, from defilements cleaned, from fear liberated... this is the great blessing".  It`s a beautiful thought,  thou you are not required to believe it yourself if it does not fall into your own belief system.  That  to me is also the underlying greatness of this way of thinking.  But if you were willing to give it a chance, to ponder on it, you`ll find it is extremely hard to walk the path spoken.  There are several practices that require a great deal of will power, as each level is magnified in its own complexity.  You ought to attain a cleanliness of senses and stillness of your mind, to get a glympse of this.  You might be rolling your eyes at the previous statement, due to the fact that I typed it.  Trust me, i'm not conveying that i possess that. So, How can i speak of it?  Because I choose to believe it so to be true, it's all I need to pursue this path.  What i can share with you  from my own little experience with meditation, is the begining stages of a mindful conscioussnes, that starts with noting every single physical sensation, and then proceed to pick just one and single it out for distant observation, in order to acknoledge it and patiently wait without falling into distractions and let it reveal its true  nature.  Sounds complicated?  It is,  for me and i think anyone that has grown in the confines of a society that has been numbing your senses with materialisctic needs for things, that dictate your worth as a person and cages your choices as a member of it.

So, Where is that infamous correlation? OBSERVATION.  One must watch carefully and objectively but from a distance, as to not interfere with  it,  at any given event that ocurrs when the user is met with his necessity or conundrum.  It's very important to get the insight of the actual reason for that need, so you can treat the dissease and not just symptoms at the developing activities for an innovative solution.  Much like one must watch closely an object, thought and sentiment and its motion or effect, restraining any attempt of controlling it, if you wish not to understand, but instead let the knowledge of the true origins of suffering sink naturally into your mind,  when walking the path to enlightment and happiness.
