What exactly do we understand by the term complex? To plainly put forth, complexity is something that baffles our present minds. let me present you with a question to invoke a certain sense of conscious efforts within, to gather wisdom, so the question is, "What in the true sense is absolutely simple?". Attempting to answer this question may open up new ways of thinking, instill profound realizations and it can cause a radical shift in the perspective. I am pretty sure that you don’t have a well-defined answer like a universal fact which applies to all, at all times, at all situations, etc... or lemme just bluntly say you don’t have a perfect answer to the question that I posed to you. The fickle nature of the answer to the question will be evident as u start utilizing the faculty of your thinking. As u ponder upon with the sense of your seeking intact, then u will stumble upon the fact that this fickleness of the answer is due to dynamic conditionings, biases, and situations. Good or Bad, Complex or Simple, Happiness or Sadness, all are parts of the worldly life, let’s say they are like the sides of a coin, they do co-exist and we do exist in this world of cause and effect. To know sadness one must know what happiness is and to know what’s complex one must know what Simple is? isn’t it. Certain actions/karmas pave the wave for certain mental and physical experiences to flow in you. The concept of simplicity is predominantly based on the concept of comprehensibility and accessibility. To be easy is to be simple in a way. a small task to give u a gist of what I want to convey. So the task is, look at the clock, what’s the time? so damn simple isn’t it?. I know u have a definite answer to this but let me ask you some follow up questions, what it means to be that particular time let’s say 8:30, Do you understand the true nature of time? now tell me your concept of simplicity in a sense is flawed right and loopholes start to surface...
Even the simplest of things can be made complex and vice versa via our mind and that’s the irony of life.
simplicity and complexity are made-up terms based on the core premise of understanding, and the level of understanding is relative.
