"The translation of a sensory perception within the framework of your experiencing structure is THOUGHT." – UG
UG held that the 'translation or the mental process' involved is the casue of division between stimulus and response, giving rise to the trinity, 'stimulus-thought-response', instead of the simple, natural unitary (divisionless) phenomenon of 'stimulus-response.'
Thought brings about the division or separation ( 'Thought is the squatter' - UG).
UG did admit that thought as memory and experiece (conditioning) is essential for social survival - for securing food, clothing and shelter and to function 'intelligently and sanely' in a social or cultural setting.
But seeking anything beyond simple necessities of life ( to become someone etc.) is trying to use thought (translation) for purposes other than what it is meant for. This is when thought turns neurotic becoming our enemy.
