In each mental state an aspect of the truth of what is referred to as identification becomes visible, but an aspect of something need not resemble the whole in any significant way, and what is visible need not be seen. What it means is that each mental state possesses an authority that can't be easily dissolved by a different, purportedly more inclusive mental state. Mental states exist in an open-ended context that could be called politics, and conversely, politics is action in the context of mental states. A state is a perspective which does not acknowledge itself as a perspective since to do so would be to surrender its connection to truth, reducing it to the relativisation of its truth. Relativism, or the suspension of truth, is for others not for me, and where the truth resides in each mental state is in its 'I', or eye, or even its 'aye'. Even in a jaundiced perspective much that is essential shows up, but it is no less jaundiced for all that. Or you could say that samsara is not devoid of truth, but the form that truth takes for it is necessarily an agenda, is politics. A mental state and and an agenda are the same thing, equally a climate of feeling, a system of distinctions of ineluctible nobility and its other.
