On the value of analysis -
“. . . it is crucial to be unbiased and willing to face whatever the reality of a situation may be. For this you need to begin with doubt; from doubt you will question; from questioning you will analyze; from analysis the truth will become clear, and whatever is untrue will fade. Doubting induces questioning, which induces analysis, which induces ascertainment.”
- the Dalai Lama, in Becoming Enlightened
The question is not so much whether analysis is useful or not, but in how to determine when it has become just another obstacle.
