      As you know, I think the priority state space stuff is roughly the right way to think about manasikara...but attention is such a contentious term...

      Maybe orienting or adverting -- turning toward -- prior to placing and possibly sustaining. The idea that we are biased in what we orient toward/away from connects to @BecketTodd's priority state space model.

      I like it better than the translation of "mental application" that I sometimes see for manasikāra.

      1/2 Bhikkhu Bodhi, in discussions of its appearance in the Abhidhamma, often uses "orienting." From a section of a draft paper by Georges Dreyfus, "But what is Mindfulness? A Phenomenological Perspective":pic.twitter.com/r2WiF2ZTqJ

      I love the metaphor of 'bending the mind' that Vasubandhu and Sthiramati use in relation to manasikāra...and that sits comfortably with this! "Bending of the mind is the condition by which the mind is directed toward an object..."

      "Its action is to cause the mind to keep hold of an object. Causing the mind to keep hold of an object means to repeatedly turn the mind toward it." (from Sthiramati's commentary on Vasubandhu's Pañcaskandhaprakaraṇa)

      You know I love Sthiramati. What do you make of Sthiramati’s recognition that we have an ambiguity of attention as achievement of persons as distinct from attention as subpersonal and moment to moment process?

      This is such a complicated issue, and I think that drawing on Todd's priority state space model helps to clarify what is going on here. First, I think that we need to recognize that the orienting process is something that occurs in every moment of experience...

      From a strict cognitive neuroscience nerd perspective, we're working on formalizing aspects of the priority state space framework to generate a model that can dynamically predict behavior. Stay tuned...
