For the seeker of truth, success in any scholarly pursuit hinges on cultivating proper attention toward the truth. A thinker must first identify factors that facilitate such attention while avoiding those that distort it. If one can pay proper attention to a problem, reaching to a solution becomes easy. Many researchers falter precisely here and most errors, faults, objections, doubts, and misconceptions arise from flawed attention to the subject matter. This occurs because even before taking steps towards reaching the ultimate result, the cognizing agent is subject to continuous mutual influence by factors and conditions that orient its attention. Crucially, the cognizing agent engages with reality not merely through the mind. Rather, the mind faces the reality along with the entirety of the soul’s faculties. In other words, attention is the existential product of the person that comes forward, seeking to demand. Thus, diverse factors are effective in this process. These factors and conditions are sometimes rooted in the structure of human perception, sometimes belong to the category of inner actions of the cognizing agent, and sometimes are of the type of external obstacles and conditions.
