[/quote] Thanks for the link. It is interesting that "Lines" is capitalized, like "Logic" Logic would be linear, I suppose. And perspective is based on Logic. So perhaps by finding out the logic of our reality we uncover the origin of our existence. [/quote] YW. I wondered why the cap....I think you've got it. So, we have hidden the logic of our reality in the person closest to us? [/quote] "People" is not specified, and I suppose "conversation" could mean more than one thing. But I guess the idea is interacting with yourself. To realize that you are your perspective. "between the lines" could be the geometry of relationships. I get a strong feeling that this is what the Logic of our perspective is. The geometry. But not in a maths sense. Using one of Chaol's examples, we consider ourselves to be our bodies. And of our body, we are not really aware of it. Although we can feel and sense what is going on with it, to an extent, we are not as aware of our elbow as our thoughts, for example. Our elbow is less relative, and this is expressed as being further away from us in our perspective. So if we feel our elbow is less "us" than our own thoughts, what about the tree over there? It is also a part of our perspective but we do not readily feel it. It is less relative but still part of our perspective. This logic or geometry of relationships seems to be a realization of how our perspective is expressed. And because we do it without knowing it probably takes the least amount of energy. This tells us that it is easy to understand. If Logic is "interaction without possibility" then it could actually be the 1 absolute possibility (and thus no possibility): our self We interact with our self, either: 1) experiencing the most relative part of our perspective or 2) experiencing only what is relative to the value #1 is unlikely, since it means that the other parts are not experienced for #2, this means that your hand is not aware of your heart. Only what is relative to your hand. It may have an awareness of what is near it in the same way as we are aware of our hand but do not have the awareness of our hand. So you are the tree. And you experience what is relative to your treeness. You see the world in a tree-like fashion. There is another "you" that it the garden, and yet another "you" that is the Earth, etc. Same with your body. I believe this is the geometry of relationships. Every "level" of the onion is aware of only the one immediately beneath and below. The answer is in the graphic that was linked to a couple of pages back. The process of the simultaneous 1-2-3. [/quote] I'm still thinking about this post but if you are talking about this image: http://i.imgur.com/Md4rSV7.jpg and chaon: it's simultaneous 1, 2, 5, isn't it? [/quote]

Hello!
I have been living in this world for some time now.
I came from a place also named Earth, much like this planet. There are a number of differences between my home and yours.
I thought it would be interesting to share a few things with you that are relatively common knowledge where I am from. My reasons for doing so will probably be more apparent in the future.
* Consciousness does not exist (but relationships do)
* Matter is gravity that has been structured
* We are not human (we are perspectives)
* When the totality of something cannot be grasped, it appears infinite.
* Space is not physical
* There is no "now" or "here", but relationships.
We use a kind of language like you use numbers here. Numbers, representations of abstract concepts, were 'invented' to work more easily with the world around us. Our language is no different.
If it were invented today it would probably be thought of as existing in parallel with science. A new kind of science.
This language also enables the shifting of perspective like a kind of mental technology. Some of you may find it quite interesting.
If anyone is interested in learning more please let me know.
Thanks.
